I'm not very good at playing magic the gathering, i'm mildly obsessed with Philadelphia sports (sometimes). I'm a Gen Xer who read the book (did you know there's a book?) and a PhD drop out. Neurodivergent, i like to converse, ask me something.

I just learned about the BC shooting. A tragedy beyond measure. My heart goes out to the families, the whole town.

so aside from speechifying what are you actually gonna do
Donald Trump’s DOJ just tried—and failed—to indict me in front of a grand jury.

Like they moved on from every other city, and every other murder.
Notice how the popular media narrative has moved on, while people on the ground in Minneapolis are still struggling and crying out that things are as bad as ever. This is how fascist regimes operate — overreach, recalibration, normalization. Get louder, not quieter.

ICE has killed more than two people - say all their names
ICE has invaded many cities - remember ALL of them
because they will move to another city and the current city will also be forgotten just like all the others seem to have been
ICE is also still in many cities every day committing more evil

It's not anyone's fault, but the "precons are a 2" thing from the original bracket explanation was a HUGE mistake. Almost every pre-con commander printed recently is absolute gas, and almost any change you make to those lists make them a strong 3 if they weren't already there out of the box.

I wasn't sure Mirrorform would be anygood in Standard since it takes so much setup. Oh man, I was wrong. And it was totally worth stealing CRAZY wins from our MTG Arena opponents.

i have always thought if you put me and my two sisters on CNN and just let us go yo'd have a huge hit...
I will probably NEVER start a podcast, unless I HAPPEN to end up living in/near Oxford and then I would consider talking witchy shit with Madeline as I watch her do dangerous things on buildings

it seems fitting that the clippers went from a horrible (yet HIGHLY successful fiscally) owner to a guy with tons of money who can't manage this team out of a garbage bag...if you believe in curses, the clippers are cursed
I know there’s way too much worse stuff going on but the Clippers should get raked over the coals for the cap circumvention just based on what Pablo has put in podcast form alone.
