Trouble ahead(less)! And yes, changing the strings (I play lefty) was too much of a hassle so I play it upside down, Jimmy Haslip style.

The Guardian · ‘All of his guns will do nothing for him’: lefty preppers are taking a different approach to doomsday
Last night I watched a whole Channel 5 video about "Lefty Gunplay" because I thought it would be about left armed resistance or the left and guns in contemporary America or something, but turns out that's a dude's name. I watched the whole video though.
As a lefty who mouses with left hand google sheets requiring me to use ctrl-v to paste is INFURIATING.
There's a menu item for paste in the context menu but it just pops up a little scolding dialogue instructing me to move my hand off the input device, to a different input device and do the operation there.
People wonder why I prefer the CLI.
As an #anarchist #lefty, it's perfectly fine, to participate in the democratic process!
#Democracy is still the least awful scheme of things!
I know, legitimising the #Gesamtscheiße (i'm from DE) 
…but, hey, You GET TO cast your vote! IT COUNTS!
My point is; as long as there's Democracy, we fellow #anarchists GET TO live our lives as we see fit!
Once the #fascists take over - we'll find ourselves in a #ThoughtPolice #Dystopia!
…you'll get arrested/disappeared, for THINKING WRONGLY! #USpol

Want american Democrats to ACTUALLY DO something already?
Consider Direct Action instead!
But as well as that, we *do* need a non-corrupt (yet! there's always time, ofc) replacement party that is ACTUALLY left-wing.
Tea Party and MAGA supporters did it. Don't follow their strategies completely, but DO LEARN FROM them. We All deserve better, even the Leopards Eating People's Faces party.
How many of them would have supported having their faces eaten if they KNEW it wasn't hyperbole or something?
Or if they took time to imagine and plan for the risks: their or loved ones' faces being eaten by leopards?

@nitot #Cannondale Super V 900 de circa 1998, mod dite #ÜberV avec un triangle acceptant un frein à disque, et une fourche #Lefty (pour un gauchiste faut le faire
), et dernièrement une roue arrière Ozo motrice parce que j'ai plus 20 ans... Réussi à le cacher dans un sac de roues pour pouvoir monter en train faire une rando de 10j en Suède (à l'occasion d'un déplacement pro). Gaga de mon bicloune 25 ans d'age. #momentvelo

It would be nice to have positive representations of media too. Not "in", but "of": examples I can point to for
"here's how to organise the restorative justice part of sharing life with other people" (Rastamouse? There must be others) or
"here's what living with UBI might do for artists and disabled people" (uhhh, yeah idk star trek?) or
"multiple ways to use drones and graphics tablets in community centres" (like delivering medication -- icr the podcast but I think it was a BBC one about "Future Perfect" or global health? or letting people use them to draw, learn 3D modelling, practice animation, sign documents, etc.
This is it!!!
(In case you don't get it: you are probably right-handed

@Dizzfunctional @RickiTarr #Lefty here. Sucked at cursive in primary school, shamed for messiness.
Now, though, I enjoy it when speed is not a factor in what I want to write. In my opinion, there is benefit in a practice that makes you slow down and focus on what you are doing. But that could just as well be silversmithing, which I also think we should reintroduce in schools (me=old). Cursive is less expensive to implement (but either one needs qualified teachers).
Hey y'all! Democracy is on the line this November, and don't even fucking pretend it's not. Let's do something about it and make sure we don't slide into Leonard Leo's wet dream.

“Most left-handed people don't have autism, but the higher rate of left-handedness may be due to rare gene changes, the authors suggest.”
Rare Genetic Variants Are Curiously Connected With Being Left-Handed : ScienceAlert https://www.sciencealert.com/rare-genetic-variants-are-curiously-connected-with-being-left-handed
ScienceAlert · Rare Genetic Variants Are Curiously Connected With Being Left-HandedA new study has associated rare variants of specific genes with the development of left-handedness in humans.
People who are so eager to #police some #ideologies often neglect to figure into the calculation just how many people want to police their #ideology, and just how few people actually share their exact views outside of their social bubbles. This uneasy agreement among #Americans to keep the state out of what you believe isn't as bad as you think.
Ask this #Appalachian #lefty who grew up in a deep #red #evangelical area of the country how I know this.

So. Budget ausgereizt.
Ein #Cannondale Scalpel (2014) ist es geworden.
Die Geometrie ist dem alten Hardtail sehr ähnlich, aber diesmal Carbon und hinten auch gefedert. Bin schon nen paar Runden gerollt

But I did find some gems. My Kent 12-string. 1973. I would have been around 16 here. Naturally, posing in front of Hendrix. I'm very surprised I didn't have my left arm thrown forward like the poster.
