Oh, it's December. Time to haul out one of my favourite holiday traditions, the #scryfallrandom #elfontheshelf !

It's simple. I run Scryfall's "random card" until I get an Elf. Then I post it here and talk about it.

Today's pick is... Seeker of Skybreak! She helps combo decks and is $100 in foil.

Seeker of Skybreak, a card from Magic The Gathering's 7th Edition set.

"well what are the Democrats supposed to do" I don't know! They're supposed to know! I'm not the one who sought and obtained a political position that would require me to know what to do when the ruling party attempts to install the President as a dictator!

it always frustrates me that the Republicans make the Democrats sound so much more progressive than they actually are

Thune: "If the Democrats had won the majority, they probably would've tried to nuke the filibuster. And then you'd have four new senators from Puerto Rico and DC, you'd have a packed Supreme Court, you'd have abortion on demand ... "

you don't get to count on votes from people you are letting get exterminated. if you let a fox kill the chickens, should you still expect eggs in the morning?

I feel like the problem here is the idea that 15 year olds can't handle social media but adults can

Denmark is planning to ban children under 15 from using social media, following Australia's world-first laws to curb social media use among teenagers.

To put it in capitalism terms (because Democrats only seem to understand ideas on a business level), this is like trying to get investors by saying "we can't offer a product until we have control of the market."

Ada Bee @mercury01.bsky.social · 3d

Great value proposition, I must say. Starting your political position with "we won't protect you unless you vote for us". That's mob shit. Go to jail.

I was going to argue against Gruul, but then I remembered ecofascists are a thing

Ada Bee @mercury01.bsky.social · 4d

Izzet, Golgari, Orzhov and Gruul are the most online?

The people traumatized by Simic value decks were a mitigating factor.

You wanna know the real sign that spider man is an absolute flop? Limited Resources, perhaps the most "company man" podcast magic has, basically did their set review eps and then the very next show they did the sunset episode saying they did not want to play or talk about this set at all.

My brain parsed that as "Fascinating by how glocks have gotten shittier and shittier." and I was like, damn, Bee's strapping (the other kind)

It’s great that news outlets can no longer report simple truths like “Portland is not ‘burning to the ground’.”

Instead they frame it as he said she said, with “local politicians deny Trump’s assertion that the city is now a smoking crater.”

What’s the truth? They wouldn’t dare say.

"He shall break his judges if they cross his word;
He shall rule above the Law calling on the Lord.
He shall peep and mutter; and the night shall bring
Watchers ’neath our window, lest we mock the King—"
