This Tele came with “luminlay” dots. I figured they would just glow in the dark automatically, but they don’t. I had to order a UV flashlight to charge them.

I don’t want to charge the dots on my guitar. I’ve never had trouble seeing normal dots in the dark.

Victory Amps is now offering control panels in Braille as a free upgrade for their entire line of guitar amplifiers. Pretty cool.

I would love to build some little set pieces for these guys. Alas, I have neither the time nor the talent.

Popping in briefly from my self-imposed deactivation to say FUCK ICE.
Data, on the bridge in First Contact: Captain, I believe I speak for everyone here when I say Fuck ICE.

So one thing about 2025 is I got two spectacular guitars. One I'm making payments with interest on, like a putz, because I couldn't stop myself, but nevertheless.

Ontology is bullshit because it is impossible to decide whether Helo is a lion or a Muppet.

Derrida, in questioning how Heidegger can know what he claims to know, throws in this "and another thing!" where he asks how can one possible claim to know the sex (gender) of Christ, which is not something anyone can determine of another person.

Happy Christmas!
If you gave me a little time, I would undertake what would not be just an exercise, what is on the contrary a very serious thing that could be experienced with fear and trembling, but which might today become a mere exercise, which would consist in demonstrating that the figure of the sister and that of Christ can very easily be substituted for one another. And precisely in Trakl’s corpus, if I may say so. How is one to determine the sex of Christ, and how is one to characterize, within sexual difference, the properly Christian, decidedly Christian expe rience that a man (supposing that Trakl is a man, decidedly a man, “one sidedly a man,” as one of Joyce’s commentators dared to say of him) or a woman has of the relation to Christ?

OK, I think I had a breakthrough with these things, which have been humiliating me for months. I switched from Open G to E and suddenly they have a real vibe. In Open G, the benders, which are fixed to the 2nd & 3rd stings, were on the root & 3rd of the scale. In Open E, they are on the 3rd and 5th.

If I were to buy a "Strat," I think I would get this one. It's a Rick Graham Signature. I literally have no idea who that is, but this thing just looks so cool and stripped down. It's a Super Strat but it's not like a Jem or something.

My panopticon building now also looks like the Dr Zhivago ice Palace. The vertical surfaces are covered in a crust of blown snow.

Writers rarely give their cats the co-authorship credit they deserve.

Helo has been helping me out all morning.

If you can even find the cat in all that floof!
Black and white photo of a fluffy cat rolling around on a couch such that it is actually hard to tell that it is a cat. There is just so much floof.

I sold a different Tone Bender to get this one. I love how the Fuzz Bender makes no pretence of historical accuracy and instead just fully embraces unhinged spitty madness.

In this house, if you leave a guitar case open, there is already a cat in it.
