@aliceduckwhisper.bsky.social commissioned a transmasc Prism, you all can thank them for this.

just love who they're telling you they are, there's no big secret or mystery to be solved. the mystification of "please treat me like a woman" is just internalized transmisogyny, so make sure you sit with that before you make it your friends problem

Winry! @w1nry.bsky.social · 19h

the unique trans experience of "im happier and more whole than I've ever been but have never had fewer people to share that joy with" is so backwards

give a shit about your trans friends when they're metamorphosing. there's nothing to mourn, and it doesn't need to make sense to you

true and correct

Winry! @w1nry.bsky.social · 4d

alright time to check fablazing and cherry pick the data that reinforces my idea that my pet decks bad matchup is bad for the game and should have bans

tcgs are a gift from god

I use my infinitely purposeful hands to grip the cards, my divine knowledge of reading to understand them, and my marble smooth ape brain to IP myself and send 6 damage

what if my matchup analysis was against heroes and not if they disrupt and how many generic d reacts they play? thatd be neat, right?

Winry! @w1nry.bsky.social · 7d

inb4 LL replaces CC in popularity because at least combo is a 2nd archetype

Winry! @w1nry.bsky.social · 7d

People really will complain the format is 30 nonlinear aggro decks with less decisions than 2 years ago and then screech when ice is mentioned

Winry! @w1nry.bsky.social · 7d

very funny that the solution to aggro-only decks in the game is likely banning generic d reacts

if every deck can survive regular aggro, every hero is designed to punch over, meaning there's no ecosystem and every deck is just nonlinear aggro, and power turns reach "decisions don't matter anymore"

cc would be a better format without generics

Winry! @w1nry.bsky.social · 10d

I mean the real reason is that people use short form for anything like formats/set names/etc when possible. it's been that for every card game i've ever played, and the creators are also tenured players, so imo it should simply be expected. I appreciate they are trying, it was just so preventable

Winry! @w1nry.bsky.social · 10d

it would just be so nice if we could learn from something like Heavy Hitters, but y'know

women fucking rock, and the lengths weak men will stoop to against them being intelligent, powerful, whole beings that exist beyond their personal use never ceases to amaze me.
