Wizards of the Coast’s new partnership with TCGplayer makes sense from a financial perspective, but there’s a lot of vitriol for the retailer in the Magic community thanks to their union-busting maneuvers earlier this year.

I have no idea what #tiktok guidelines this video could have violated. Incorrectly flagged as a scam, maybe?
Anyways, go get your free 200-item bag expansion.

Tonight, I attempt to tackle Mount Lanakila. And if I'm fast, I'll go for the Elite Four, too! Is this my last night in the Alola region? Find out now!

This afternoon my son called "Dada dada" to get my attention, and when I turned around he bent over and started wiping the floor with the paper towel he found.
I spend so much of my time trying to keep this house together, that cleaning is what he associates with me. He isn't even two!

My son had a child recently, and my MIL picked up medicine for him.
It was homeopathic cough medicine. Homeopathy is the the most easily disproven pseudoscience.
But it's so stupid that it's fun! I want to make homeopathic Magic and Pokemon decks to show how absurd it is!

Today I'm serving up a fresh slice of madness with another PETA parody stream!
Last time we reached the Pokémon from abusive trainers in Pokémon Black & Blue. This time we'll be saving them from the fast food industry in Pokémon Red, White, & Blue!

Sad to see another Pokémon AND Magic prerelease passing me by. Realizing I'm my trauma-induced need to be valuable I've made myself indispensable to too many people to ever have free time, but not enough to be appreciated.
I am a stone. Kick me, beat me, ignore me. I'll still be steady, numb, here.

Attention #PokémonTCGPocket players: If you're good on promo cards, farm the Necrozma ex Solo Battle to maximize your Shinedust returns.
Promo Pack 9 (from Necrozma ex) averages 100 Shinedust per pull thanks to having more possible rares than the other promo packs.

Look at this awesome sticker I picked up from Shane Molina at my famous for his Hawaiian-themed Star Wars art, and he's been doing art for #starwarsunlimited lately. But he also does other franchises!

Bolas uses sex to demonstrate dominance.
Ugin is a service switch. He's actually ace, but he's a people pleaser.
16.375% of Niv's brain is dedicated to erotic fantasies, which he catalogs for future research. This has led to the creation of the Hypersonic Dragons and a vault of prototype sex toys.

This month's Lesson from Alola is actually the inspiration for the whole series. The first time I played Sun & Moon, one location was so recognizable that I felt a burning need to tell everyone.
So here's how Malie Garden relates to the last reigning monarch and only queen of Hawai'i.

My goal is to have a new video up each weekend. Usually that'll be a "Let's Play" or pack opening stream, but on weekends where that's impossible, I'll be dropping a lore video.
Tomorrow should be NG drill, but since the GOP shut down the gov, that's canceled, so y'all get a video while I sleep in!
