Dad's Kamaka Ukulele

Dad’s Kamaka Ukulele

“Old Kamaka” Torrance, 2022 I am enjoying playing this old Kamaka ukulele, which my dad has had it since he was a kid. I gently cleaned it with a damp cloth, and changed strings and it sounds nice! The tuners don’t hold tune very well, but that’s okay. It just adds to the charm. 😀

WIP Bingo - School of the Legends

[image ID in alt text]

Admittedly since SOTL is mostly planning this could all change, who knows? I would like to include gore and horror but we'll see how it goes.

A lot of definite Bingos though.

OC Bingo - Jill McDonald (SOTL)

[image ID in alt text]

Ok I know I said everyone was some flavor of gay but Jill I feel is the token straight! I'm assuming attentive parent means the OC is an attentive parent, not that they have one, because Jill's Da is very attentive.

Jill is Jack's older sister. She's extremely smart and perfect at most things, in Jack's perspective.

OC Bingo - Waru Yagmoor (SOTL)

[image ID in alt text]

Bingo if you count the yellow!

Waru is kinda my Cinderella stand in sort of? He and his sister share the role.

OC Bingo - Ritchie Wayne (SOTL)

[image ID in alt text]

Ritchie doesn't have powers but I wouldn't call her powerful. I also think he will want most of the things on this.

OC Bingo - Mele Kamaka (SOTL)

[image ID in alt text]

Bingo! I chose Mele obviously because she fits too well. She's my Little Mermaid character.

WIP Bingo - The Emerald of Secrets (TEOS)

[image ID in alt text]

Hehe I'm definitely working on TEOS after TSP.

OC Bingo - Ash Hathaway (TSP)

[image ID in alt text]

Ash is becoming more fun to write the more practice I have with her.

More Ash: OC in three, OC questionnaire, two truths and a lie

yayaaayayyy thanks anon!!!

Do they have any phobias, and do you ever see yourself killing them off?

Second question is easier to answer - LOL no. I get far too attached to my little guys, and I'm a complete sucker for happy endings. I have to have a very, very good reason in-lore for a character to die before the completion of their arc.

Back to the first question - yes! Yavari and Kamaka have some deep-seated fears that will take a very long time for both of them to open up about.

Yavari had a troubled childhood. Her mother was an alcoholic that did the bare minimum to keep Yavari alive. Most of her childhood was spent rummaging through dumps and stealing from stalls to survive and actually have things to her name. Joining the pirate crew was the first time Yavari felt like she had purpose. Because of all that, Yavari has a very deep-set fear of abandonment. She feels like she must always be useful in some way, to be actively benefitting the crew at all times, or else she will be tossed aside like trash as soon as her usefulness runs out. She is afraid of showing her true self to others in case it's not good enough, and it takes a very long time for her to learn how to trust other people. Funnily enough, Yavari doesn't have a lot of physical fears. The sea doesn't scare her, she's seen combat and bloodshed, and has experienced pain and suffering - not much bothers her anymore.

Kamaka was born to rich, strict, overbearing parents of a noble family line, groomed since birth to be the next heir to the household and become the matriarch of the family after their mother. Too bad his parents ended up with a son some years later. After Kamaka made his escape from his rigid upbringing, he's much happier, but the effects of that kind of childhood linger. He fears responsibility; he's convinced himself that he will never be able to reach expectations, and has thus stopped trying. He's too afraid of failure to ever want to put in effort into anything; all they ever heard as a child was everything they did wrong, never what they did right. Learning that failure isn't something to fear, but embrace, requires them to shake off years of low self-confidence and perfectionism. Physically, Kamaka isn't squeamish and considers themself tough, but is still very bothered by blood and gore. They grew up on an island, but still hate the sight of vast, open sea; they have a bit of agoraphobia, both for wide-open spaces and the anxiety of large crowds and public areas they aren't prepared for.

Kai Kamaka III vs Henry Corrales | Bellator 300

I do appreciate that PFL is in spirit what Bellator was under Bjorn Rebney. Known veterans of the game getting a second chance at fighting on TV and getting a big cash payout but having to fight a bunch of Russian prospects to do it. The veteran in this case is UFC and Bellator veteran Kai Kamaka. Always a fun fight with Kai, and seeing him fight himself into the semi-finals of a $1 million tournament has been cool.

Kamaka will find himself facing off with the 2022 PFL featherweight champion Brendan Loughnane (29-4) in the main event of PFL 9: 2024 Playoffs this Friday (August 23).

Enesekaitse ehk kättemaksu sõda

Trump ja Harris räägivad Iisraeli sõja kohta põhiliselt sama asja.

Harrise jutt on demagoogia.

Ta võiks Gaza massimõrvade teemal ka vaikida, kui ta Iisraelile relvaembargo kehtestaks.

Osa Harrise väiteid on valed, osa põhjendamata.

Iisraeli õigus enesekaitsele ei laiene Iisraeli poolt okupeeritud ja faktiliselt annekteeritud aladele.

DELFI artikli stiil on fantastiline, selles on palju absurdseid eeldusi ja järeldusi.

Nii näiteks ei põhjustanud 07. oktoobri rünnak seda, et Iisrael Gaza sektori elumajad maatasa pommitas. Seda põhjustas Iisraeli juhtkond.

Artikli lõpp on eriti fantastiline: "Iisraeli enesekaitsest" on äkki saanud "kättemaksu sõda".

Artikli autori ajud ei anna välja gümnaasiumi edukaks lõpetamiseks vajalikku vaimset taset.

George and uke, June 1994; screenshot from The Beatles Anthology.

“[Harrison] acquired a fine collection of ukes, including the Ludwig banjo-uke once a favourite instrument of [George] Formby himself.” - andyeastwood dot com, 2001 “George Harrison was a very kind, friendly, caring, thoughtful and deeply spiritual man, and it was both a privilege and a pleasure to have known him. He was kind enough to give me a ‘Big Resonator’ Gibson UB-3 with a ‘three-dot’ fingerboard and three thumbscrew mountings, which was originally presented to me in one his large Kamaka ukulele cases! He had written a message to me on the old vellum and had signed it on behalf of himself and his family.” - Jon Croft, theukuleleman dot com “I met George Harrison once on Maui. He bought every ukulele the store I worked in had in stock.” - Keola D., Twitter, June 16, 2007 Chris Carter: “Dad loved the uke, didn’t he?” Dhani Harrison: “He did. He got very into the uke, actually bordering on obsessively into the uke at some points, and, you know, taking me to George Formby conventions - that was when I started to notice that he was very into the ukulele [laughs]. He’s got a big, well, he had a big collection of ukes which I now have. And, yeah, more ukes than I know what to do with.’” - Breakfast With The Beatles, August 31, 2008 (x)
