A nice little getting started list for #lefty #guitar chords.

Her loaner is a full-sized acoustic and gorgeous and sounds great--but very difficult for someone just getting started. She was looking wistfully at the small Luna travel guitar I had brought... I'm wondering how hard it would be to get her something easier to handle so she can fight just one impossible battle at a time.

Three panel cartoon of a little character playing an acoustic guitar. The first is labeled C; the second is nearly identical, labeled Am (A minor). The third panel shows the guitar on the ground and the character walking away in disgust. It is labeled F, which is an appropriate letter because man, that chord really sucks when you're getting started.  Apparently after 5+ years I'm still getting started because I still hate F.  F that chord, man.

#Lefty #guitar players, what are some good resources for someone just getting started specific to your sinister condition?

One of my beginning #Guitars4Vets students is left-handed, so I'm realizing all of our support materials assume a right-handed player. Trying to show her chords on her loaner guitar is an exercise in frustration; I have new sympathy for those trying to learn on the "wrong" hand.

Also, can you simply restring an acoustic upside down and play lefty, or are there gotchas?

Join us, Left Book Club and the Industrial Workers of the World @iww for an online conversation with Interregnum member Panos Theodoropoulos about precarity, organising and how capitalism socialises us into participating in our own exploitation.

I have a Facebook account to stay in touch with my extended family and friends that I no longer see on a regular basis. However, I have recently spotted a flaw within the algorithms that Facebook uses to suggest groups and stuff that I should be following or joining.

As I am very open about my political opinions and beliefs, I often call myself a Socialist for everyone to see. Except that I don’t: I actually call myself a lefty, because that’s what I am! At least, that’s what I self identify as on social media.

If I get one more advert for a left handed tin opener…

@InRangeTV isn't alone anymore. Finally another #lefty #guntuber

"This video looks at the kinds of political violence that rarely make the news. Not just bombings or assassinations, but the everyday harm done to working people through policy, bureaucracy, and corporate power."

So, I am sitting in a pub called The Clement Atlee, drinking a beer called Clem from a Clement Atlee glass: I just wish that I was wearing one of my "Red" T-shirts. Did I mention that I am getting change from four quid for this fine real ale? #RealAle #CAMRA #Lefty #Socialism #Socialist #TheClementAtlee #Clem

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.

Fahrradfahren geht wieder ganz okay. Schulter tut immer noch weh, aber zum Fahren brauch ich fast nur andere Muskelgruppen.

Also gestern Abend spontan noch schnelle 29,7km zu dritt durch den Wald gefahren.

Schön war’s!

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.

Always funny watching a #leftist get angry at another #lefty for not being the right flavor. :pepe_chuckle:

I hurt my hand on Sunday and now working with my left hand. Not withstanding I'm not used to using my left hand for everything, more things than I thought are designed for right hand use only...

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.
