sometimes, just sometimes, twitter does good

#uk politics #today we had another resignation in the cabinet #(of someone who was horrendous so we're celebrating) #but the letter she said was basically like 'i can accept my mistakes and know when to step down' and it was very the drama!!!! #i have to laugh because honestly if i don't the crushing weight of how depressing this is will get me #truss ain't gone quite yet but.. soon #anyway i now feel like it's my job to update my non-uk moots of the car crash going on here

liz truss resigned not because she was an incompetent PM, but in fact because taylor swift’s new album is out soon and that’s her bigger priority as a swiftie

do we even get politicians with nicknames like The Prince Of Darkness in this country any more. save for whoever nadine fucking dorries (aka the last rat on the boris johnson ship) was doing her head in about, who may or may not have quartered his girlfriend’s brother’s rabbit and nailed it to a door(?)

#world gone to shit we need iago with a blackberry #on an unrelated note did anyone see liz truss harping on about Wokery and The Woke Communist Left the other day #deeply funny. i don’t think they’re going to rally around you liz you were politically outlived by a lettuce

Now that Liz Truss is gone, I think we all should accept that Hugh Grant has always been the best option for PM

#uk politics #liz truss is gone #we all knew it was coming #I’m sure she might have done good #but she didn’t #and so Hugh grant it is #hugh grant #love actually #fun fact I prentend to hate that film #because honestly I’m embarrassed at how much I love it #it’s so sweet #uk #Britain #liz truss #english #British

One day you think to yourself damn the guitar work on bigmouth strikes again is honestly mad, and the next

Foiled the bridge pegs - worked really great and just looks sharp even though you don’t…see the pegs, but i spun the peg screws out so the bridge sits rather high, got a proper ‘float’ over the body the way a thing called a floating bridge ought to. The treble side I put higher up to eliminate the superchoked treble strings (the issue was the very very low action, fretting any fret from around 10 and up rang out as like…22!)

With the raised bridge the rattle is worse! Because the jaguar/jazzmaster floating bridge sits in its sockets fixed in only by the tension of the strings. When you bring it up, there’s more room for it to rattle - so the foil wrapped pegs work to fill up the sockets, eliminating this rattle because it fits way more snugly

And anyway I finally found an explanation for the shim that I get that isn’t just a vague “oh it’s part of the offset equation” - hazeguitars explains it as a consequence of the raised bridge itself, cause the intention of raising the bridge for most is for the break angle, where the strings run from fretboard up to the bridge, then break downwards again towards the anchor point in the trem system. Which makes the tension/pressure on the bridge more effective, holds it better, and eliminates buzz (huge nightmare for jag/jm owners apparently but well, never really bothered me, what bothered me was the action so low that the guitar did not function as a guitar!!)

So the assumption is if you raise the bridge for the break angle you don’t want the high action that comes with it, so you put a shim in the neck pocket which will bump the fretboard up a little and keep your break angle without a high ass action.

Which is what I did blindly before I even brought the bridge up. My shim is flat and doesn’t angle up nearer to the body of the guitar because, repeating, this morning I was a sucker without a clue. Thing is because I fiddled with the bridge to fix my action, I believe my break angle isn’t extreme as the ideal is - my bridge still kind of buzzes (granted, not a problem that bothered me until today, I can’t really hear it!! Unless i actively listen out for it!)

Play wise it’s nice, fixed the choked frets and actually it’s better than before the problem even cropped up because it used to be a nightmare fretting high cause it wouldn’t ring as the correct note unless i pressed down really fierce. Now it works fine with normal fretting. I am no jimi hendrix but in this case i can actually say it wasnt all me it was squier by fender and their balls out shitty offset guitar stock set ups. From all the reading i did to understand this guitar I dont think you could play a jaguar nice off the shelf. But he’s never more trouble than he’s worth!!

#if i get the itch i’ll make the break angle more severe and angle my shim and then maybe put the pickguard i sprayed with copper plate back #didn’t need a truss rod adjustment (I couldn’t find the tool for it anyway) and I think there’s no reason to tinker with the tremolo so #and well the music store didn’t have flat wounds with a higher gauge than 10 #i don’t know if i like the new strings just yet…maybe I should’ve gone for the high gauge like most people said but wait let me find #the comment that sold me on the flats

Nothing to see here just an Iceburg lettuce lasting longer than our current Prime Minister in office this week. A lettuce that had its own You Tube channel, has global media attention and has now been congratulated by a former Russian president!

#uk politics #liz truss #lettuce for pm #ding dong the witch is gone #I love my country tho we need to get out of this mess & have a General Election it's awful

[malyen0retsev]

i am once again sat here asking politely for a fUCKING GENERAL ELECTION PLEASE

#EVERY DAY I WAKE UP AND THERE'S SOME NEW IDIOCY IN WESTMINSTER #yes i want truss gone (idk how she can hold on much longer) but they cannot possibly think they can replace her without a general?! #oh i'm tired i'm so tired #uk politics #sarah rambles

You know if their incompetency wasn’t actually killing people, it would be very comforting for everyone else with an inferiority complex to have such a brazen collection of cockwombles in government

#You think you're bad well have you popped your head round the cabinet room door lately #Even when they're gone in disgrace you can't get rid of them and they don't learn their lesson #Boris will keep popping up to say stuff like 'It's silly to think I lied about the parties' when we all watched him lie about it on live tv #Liz Truss apparently wants to have some kind of comeback? #Honestly I may be bad at my job and a little bit useless as a human being #But at least I'm not as bad as this lot

[poeciles]
