I dunno. Did you see The Matrix Revolutions?

Same thing happened with me, but I was at the “Secret Eclair” bakery downtown. Totally wrong line.

If you had trouble getting a secret lair today, I’d appreciate it if you comment with what happened. I’ll be compiling these talking about it in a TikTok later.

How awful are the “mutate” and “ninjutsu” mechanics if the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles set has neither?

Something something Mondo Gecko

You would think the requirement for a full UB set would be that the IP has some minimal form of “magic” in it.

Sullivan the Monster @sullivanmonster.bsky.social · 6d

That’s what most people believe

Turtle kindred? Way more ninjitsu?

Sullivan the Monster @sullivanmonster.bsky.social · 6d

It’s nice that they extra protected it by putting a useless Authority of the Consuls in front of it.

Sullivan the Monster @sullivanmonster.bsky.social · 6d

Because licensing?

A good Universes Beyond IP cannot save a poorly designed set. TMNT better play more like Final Fantasy and less like Spider-Man.

I’m going to need some MTG cosplayer to do a skit as Pam Bondi reading notes attacking other players Commanders. Any suggestions?

Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social · 7d

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in.

Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators.

The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism

In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

Bondi senate hearing had a folder full of notes for attacking the senators

In an attempt to coming traditional Jewish American faire and classic Asian, I threw some leftover pastrami into my stovetop ramen.

It was better than expected.

Spider-Man super cheap at Micro Center! Look at these prices. 👀

One of my favorite moments was meeting and getting a signature from @sullivanmonster.bsky.social

Sully is a lot taller in person then I realized! Used my head as a table to sign my Autograph Book!
Totally happened, trust me. 😂

So people that started in the last two years, more or less

Sullivan the Monster @sullivanmonster.bsky.social · 14d

Do you mean that they started then or that they existed before, but survived it?

I only knew because @the-elder-dingus.bsky.social got up from our chaos draft and said it was time to do it.

If you saw a guest that you really liked at MagicCon, or did an event that you really liked, be sure to put that in the email survey when you get it.

Positive comments (I assume) help to bring those events and guests (like yours truly) back at future events.

Sure! But you two have to ask people if you can bite them on your own! I can’t be everywhere 😜
