Got this classic of alternative in my mind this morning youtu.be/gYdlqjiQPAc?...

Aside from sotn? Honestly I don't. I more or less suck at platformers
I hate this so much. I want to talk about fun things. Celebrate the joys of life. And everything is being smothered in bleakness.

Glad for all the folks getting their hollow knight on today. I still haven't played (or even seen, really) the first one, but I celebrate your happiness
7th LOREMASTER ANNIVERSARY As of today, I have been Magic's Loremaster for SEVEN years. During that time I have worked as an editor on several novels and novellas, hundreds of web fiction articles, dozens of comic books, written creative text for over a dozen Magic sets...
This list, oddly enough, doesnt run my preferred win con of ulamog but close enough
Yeah, I tried to build casual kinnan when it came out and it was like building casual najeela- no matter how much you try you will never power it down
Here's a recent sample deck list. It is exactly what you think- ramp all day long and then put out every big chungus you have while keeping up counter magic moxfield.com/decks/jfQkms...
You have, in fact, discovered the core of the deck =)
It sure fucking is!
In summary: the US govt says they blew up a drug smuggling boat in international waters but can’t explain the legal basis for that, nor even keep details of the strike straight. At least one former US official thinks it was migrants, not drugs. And Venezuela claims the video is fake.
Spent five minutes staring at this trying to work out what it had reminded me of. Realised it was this horrifying passage from George Orwell’s 1984.
I will give you that. It is a cool nut to crack. But broken it ain't.
Might i suggest @archidekt.com ?
It seems really bad.
9/4 #scryfallrandom is my cedh commander of choice
Happy birthday! I hope the sun shines on you.
Wanna hang out in Atlanta
i will concede the point. and curse that dude for not being like 4 inches over
show me your felix five boots decks
i want that dragon and have money
I’ve said it before, but something that has worked for me when dealing with liberals who are “just concerned” about trans participation in sports is to tell them “congrats, Chris Rufo thinks you’re a useful chump”
the Venezuelan goverment has said that there is no wreckage and no sign of any such boat having existed.
How many board gamers does it take to change a light bulb? 1 to 5 but I wouldn’t recommend it at 1 or 5 or even 2 really.
turns out I was the problem this whole time!
This might have already passed gulf of Tonkin in terms of credulous bizarreness
Remember this as they accelerate towards 60 Minutes starting to name individual trans kids that they want you to personally target for torment.
teach me your ways!!
The truth comes out about this criminal action by the Trump administration.
evolution of belief age 10: the devil exists age 20: the devil is allegorical age 30: lol there is no devil age 40: the devil is allegorical age 50: the devil exists and walks among us every day
“A hallmark of being a Black child in advanced literature classes is the ability to separate the art from the artist, even before you know you’re doing it.”
This sums up this payment NSFW fiasco pretty well.
it was the prime stop between SF and Bombay back before you could fly around the world nonstop, so we would end up there for 12+ hours waiting for layover, and Singapore was brilliant, and innovated day pass visas to go explore the city while you waited.
changi in singapore is up there too
dude, the whole show all i could think of was 'this dude has the *exact* same joyful vibe that crim does'
man. i feel bad for indian-australians.
in the middle of nowhere in central ohio?
it's not very useful, no
sorry to hear that, but totally get it. also we need to hang out again
that only works with one card though.
Shang Chi got robbed. that movie rules
@theasianavenger.bsky.social crim, i was at the offspring concert last week and their guitarist, Noodles, looks like what i'd imagine you would look like in your sixties living your best life
I love these kind of articles. Well done @space.com www.space.com/entertainmen...
This weekend is Street Fighter’s 38th anniversary, and if that’s not a good reason to look back on Polygon’s Street Fighter 1 oral history, I don’t know what is.
District and appellate courts, I think fairly, keep asking the Supreme Court to clarify what they actually mean—i.e. "If the new rule is that the Trump admin can never lose then you have to say that" and the Supreme Court keeps being like "No, you're supposed to just do it without us having to say."
Okay, want a concrete example of this? When Eric Nam, a Korean-American celebrity, was cast as the voice of adult Aang, a lot of people were upset that they had cast a "Zionist" in the role. You see, he had liked a post that condemned violence against both Palestinians and Jews. In October 2023.
Bro, I've seen every spider man movie and I still sometimes think that Gwen and MJ are the same
Magic has a gold dragon that is red-white. Just errata this to that.
THIS IS SO COOL
Old news my friend. It came out in August
Chaos draft
This is how I learned that Mary Jane has a last name
For reference, here's my deck archidekt.com/decks/168752...
I run this in my firion deck!
Oh I love this
I have gotten in hot water for using the term "failed state" to describe the US as there are historical conditions that have to be met for the term to be accurate, so let's just say we're in the on-deck circle
Religion and Nerdery is my entire project =) I'm fond of saying that d&d brought me to the divine.
I legit feel kinda bad for them*. They’re disrupting their civilian lives for this bullshit. If my cousin is (was, z”l) representative, they’d much rather be helping communities. This is NOT what they signed up for. *not the cops who are double-dipping, they can get fucked.
Little unbalanced with wheeler winning every single game (even the ones hes not in)
And the flip legends from Kamigawa
2016 commander precon face card.
I have a new song meme to work with, alongside frosty and Rudolph. *rubs hands together with glee*
Make it explicit. And don't limit it. I wanna see cedh players running around tournaments high fiving each other.
Its not great! I had it in the prerelease and it was troublesome
Oh lord, lol
@hipstersofthecoast.com reached out this summer and told me he was getting the band back together. It was good to play with Magic & meaning again. www.hipstersofthecoast.com/2025/09/phil... #magicthegathering #MTGEOE
I have the urge to go back and rebuild some of my old decks from the ground up, but I fear what a Breya list in 2025 would look like
A man on the streets of the UK is asked about the “problem of immigration” and dismantles talking points with ease.
Oh shit?!?
Kim is an international treasure
The original Karen Memory book was sick as hell. Highly recommended to folks who like weird westerns with mecha and lesbians
Its cute that the enemy cycle scries and the allied cycle surveils
Sparta were the GOAT of trash talk while having no game to back it up. They are the Patrick Beverly of European history.
I know what it used to be
Oh man, I loved Karen Memory. I should reread it.
Whoa, really? Can you take a picture?
on the bright side it is yargle day
Oh. Oh god, lol
There were avatars for each color
Your deck looks really fun and none of the GCs look like they would make it more fun. I'd play sanctum simply because it makes me happy, but you're not missing out without it
I can
I posit that if you are thinking in terms of "always correct" you are approaching the format from the wrong direction
Oh this is good
thread delivers
Still a board book imo
Legalize gold, silver, and playtest mystery cards. Make commander an opt out kitchen sink format, not a beg for permission one.

9/3 #scryfallrandom is one of only two cards in the game with a power and toughness of 4/9.
man, when you're recording with an incredibly cool person, sometimes the episodes end up double the length. thanks, @shawnelizabeth.bsky.social!
Bathroom sign at an ice cream spot out here
I’m going to be thinking about this for years
More of this. Make lying shameful again.
it was unbelievably tough, let me tell you
it was like strapping the world's worst subwoofer to your chest
I had one! It sucked so much!
