Anxiety is a monster.... when things go bad you are genuinely fighting monsters, and when you fight those monsters, the ones that drive you into lashing out, to break everything around you because people hurt you... you have to fight them while recognizing that those people are good (1/x)
There are so many people who seemingly flipped on Trans people in my lifetime that the Evplutionary Biologist Chaser email has me casting a lot of side eye at.
the confirmation of contemporary transphobia as a political movement has been the brainchild of a boys club made up of some of the most disgusting monsters in recent memory to explicitly keep trans women disenfranchised so as to subjugate and exploit us for their own sexual gain is like

a lot, dawg

Seriously this game took so much of my time, especially since it promised me I could make my own game and other people would play it....

I never did make my own game.... BUT I COULD HAVE!

Like I was always somewhat aware of Something Awful, 4chan, goonsquad and so on but man... you know what was cooler?

Playing well of souls and modifying sprites so I could be this guy from another game with cool red/orange hair in my funny 4 frame paper doll game XD
January 31, 2026 at 9:07 PM
You know what? I am glad that even amongst gamers I would have been considered anti-social as a teen.

I was always put off by boards like 4chan and so on cuz I just wanted to play video games and make up stories.

I am thinking about mono-red control or mill again and honestly it almost always comes back to Kazuul and Grenzo though the new Roku really does something cool and unique.
January 31, 2026 at 8:40 PM
So I am trying to find ways in mono-red to give all my creatures evasion of some form and boy howdy does it just not work. There are 2 cards that give your board Menace which is the worst evasive keyword and then Skyshaper which gives them alpha strike flying.

What am I missing?

Bird Kitchen has been updated. Now up to 52 lands with a ton of utility

Kor Haven over Maze of Ith as it taps for mana
The two creatures that untap one or two lands got removed as they dont do enough
Tomb of the Spirit Dragon is a speculative add really for lifegain

Mail Came in today which means it is time to go to the Bird Kitchen and make some changes.

In no way could I be trusted to know which card is which. I clicked away from the screen and already dont know which card is in standard or what one the tthe -1/-1 thing and which does the not that thing.
Had a "whoopsie" in the feature match area this round for Standard. Dimir Midrange expert Mogged borrowed cards for his deck and had Black Sun's Zenith instead of Day of Black Sun. The players were trying to resolve the spell as printed when they realized it. 😅

I wont lie tournament drama is always a little funny to me... folks like to pretend one format or another has more drama or whatever but remember like the Francis Table Flip Meme predated Commander's adoption by wizards and Control has always been kinda hated.

Last night someone commented on how much I laugh while playing my Turbo Fog deck in pauper and my Value Vintage Kitchen deck and like... its true I do and really I think its true of so many control players.

Like have you ever seen @theasianavenger.bsky.social or @saffronolive.bsky.social play?
January 30, 2026 at 3:42 PM
A big part of why EDH itself works right now is because of solid leadership from a few very friendly friends trying to have fun.

cEDH folks have whined every time someone brings up that it is its own format and refused to do the reasonable thing and take responsibility for the format instead (1/x)
there is simply no unification among players of that format as to what they want the format to be and what expectations they have around it

it's a fundamental problem of it being a competitive multiplayer game with social elements, i think

9 and we are just having the bitchest gossip session possible I bet. Like you can tell me Ms Bumbleflower isn't like Church Girl levels of Gossip and Emrakul is probably quiet until you get her dishing on drama... you won't understand any of it but she is probably a massive gossip
Where are you sitting? 🤔

Alright since I posted the "Value Archetype" post a few people have asked for the Temur Schemes decklist so here is the actual deck list in its current work in progress form

Somehow even allowing myself a high budget I still clock in well below average price apparently

The term "Republican" is so funny because "across the pond" in the UK the term denotes opposition to Monarchy, where here in the US it seems to imply a desperate want to have that back... to recover rule of law for one fool or dynasty.

I remember how outraged we were in the 2000s or 2010s when we were told they were arresting the press in The Middle East. Lemon and Fort's arrest isn't just Unconstitutional it is unbelievably and blatantly corrupt.

Like at this point we just have a Dictator in the US.
Don Lemon is not the only reporter who was arrested by federal agents overnight — local independent journalist Georgia Fort just went live on FB to say federal agents were also at her door to take her into custody over her protest coverage in Minneapolis.

Forgive me for sounding like a mad man but the thing we have been shown REPEATEDLY is that "A Judge holding these people in contempt" does not work with the current regime

We need a military force to hold them accountable

When Garcia was abducted Judges and Politicians and more did tell Trump "No"
I need judges to start holding people in contempt. I don't want hollow rulings any longer. I want action.

Hold people in contempt and put the squeeze on them. Make it harder for them to operate.

These judges are becoming as spineless as Chuck Schumer is with these hollow rulings.
NEWS: The Trump regime has arrested Don Lemon in its latest crackdown on journalism after he reported from inside a church protest in Minnesota—despite a magistrate judge previously rejecting the case against him as unsupported by evidence.

how can anyone look at another human crying and KNOW they are suffering and remain indifferent?

Standing in the snow, the frozen ice sheet snow and seeing someone on the street crying and begging for help for somewhere to go or some change or something and I am useless to help them.

I will need to find a good pay off or synergy package in my bulk commons that isnt just extra turbo fog stuff which will be difficult I am sure.
January 30, 2026 at 4:24 AM
I play Turbo Fog because it is a very silly archetype. Its incredibly non-serious, like going to the LGS in the funny mustache glasses.

Its competitive but only if both people play fast or have unlimited time. My opponents take long enough that my insecurities start to prick up
January 30, 2026 at 4:19 AM
Its likely to be midnight by the time I get home and then I need to make dinner and Id like to spend some time looking through my commons to see about brewing a different Pauper deck.

I dont like the idea of giving up on my Turbo Fog deck but I feel bad cuz we always go past time in round.
January 30, 2026 at 4:16 AM
Alright... I think i might feel bad for playing Turbo Fog. It might just have to get relegated to a casual deck
