I’ve been working out 6 days a week for 5 years. The commitment device that worked for my gamer brain to both get me started and keep me consistent is treating exercise like a loading screen for life. I can’t progress with the rest of my day until I’ve finished my workout. I hope this helps someone.

We’re finally getting The Chain Veil on Arena! And only a mere 2.5 years after it began to see play in Pioneer 😂

I miss Karn 😭

Made a small Magic Grinder Starter Pack.

There are MTG Creator packs out there, but this one is filled with people who play in tournaments and tournament Magic is what they're about.

(As opposed to Commander podcast/cosplay, which is totally cool, just not my bag.)

Given a poll with no context, which option are you most likely to pick? This poll is to determine if polls on Bluesky work.

An “aptronym” is a person's name that is regarded as amusingly appropriate to their occupation.

The CEO of Blue Sky’s given name means "blue sky" in Mandarin Chinese ( Lántiān / 蓝天 ). 😮
my mom named her kid (me) “蓝天” which means bluesky in chinese, so i called myself “jay” to become a bird instead, and then some birdapp company named their project “bluesky” and i ended up running it.
Tell us a true story from your life that sounds made up.

I enjoy Enchant Worldle (using @scryfall.com so it’s a logic puzzle rather than a memory exercise).

My preferred starter is Esper Battlemage (it bisects the search space well). My average guesses for win is 4.09 on a 900 day streak.

Enchant Worldle #966 3/20

Foundations will NOT be redeemable via MTGO. Redemptions are my preferred way to get paper cards, so I’m not a fan of this change.

For many players, I think MTGO redemptions are an underutilized option; something to consider for a typical set release.
