Instant coffee is trash and nobody seeking health benefits from coffee would drink it.

Judge is a little bitch. IT guy could be a little more professional.

Or… it’s a joke.

There are 10,000 quality artists waiting in the wings for the opportunity to open for Ed Sheeran regardless of politics.

Just because the life style you enjoyed when you were younger doesn’t appeal to you now doesn’t make that life style juvenile.

I think it’s the other way around.

If you think it would make a good story to tell during a Halloween show, send me a message!

I’d love to be in on the raffle.

You don’t need oil to cook - eggs, meats, all of it - you don’t need the oil. Saves a lot of calories. Learn to season and use proper temperatures.

I got an email about this - what does the book detail? Like what aspect of the recordings? Is there any sheet music or transcriptions of the string parts?

This is the first year I’ve had real success putting together local shows featuring bands with little or no following. The biggest difference has been building each show around a theme instead of just booking three unrelated bands.

Whether it’s Nintendo, horror, robots, the ‘80s, or something else, the theme gives people a reason to care. It’s like throwing a themed party instead of just inviting people over—it becomes an experience rather than simply “a few bands are playing tonight.”
Does it mean the bands have to put in a little extra work and learn a few songs that fit the concept? Usually, yes. But in my experience, it’s absolutely worth it.

From a marketing standpoint, having a clear theme makes the show far easier to promote and gives potential attendees something memorable to get excited about beyond a lineup of unfamiliar names.

Yes, DM me and I will email you samples of my playing/singing.

I manage a church venue - sanctuary hall at the first Congregational church. DM if you want to chat.

Incredible :) are the arrangements available to view or purchase?

DukeofJuke1

Awesome, thank you for your reply :)

8mg makes sense - if people are prescribed 2.5 twice a day, 8mg over the course of the day slowly makes a lot of sense

To be fair you can take photos like this in any state.

Why don’t people control the descent? Dudes dropping weights in the gym just seem really obnoxious

It’s less a straightforward research show and more of a light hearted discussion with your friends that have a similar interest in true crime and other macabre or mystical subjects. Listen long enough and it feels like you’re hanging out with your friends and learning information at the same time.

You could have tried the product and decided if you could authentically promote it, then take the brand deal. This is just bad business. They should file a claim against you.

Is the potential in the room with you now?

What you’ve got there is a German military belt buckle with the phrase “Gott mit uns” (“God with us”) and an eagle over a swastika—most likely from Nazi Germany (WWII era).

What it is • A Wehrmacht (German Army) belt buckle worn by enlisted soldiers. • The design shows: • The Reichsadler (imperial eagle) clutching a swastika • A wreath around it • The words “GOTT MIT UNS”

These buckles were part of standard military uniforms during the Third Reich.

The history behind it

  1. The phrase is older than the Nazis

“Gott mit uns” actually goes way back: • Used as early as the 17th century by German/Prussian armies • Became a state and military motto of Prussia in the 1700s 

It basically meant: “God is on our side.”

  1. World War I usage • German soldiers in WWI also wore belt buckles with this phrase • It was meant as a unifying patriotic slogan across the army
