Been playing Pokemon Lets Go with Teddy and this game is just constantly in the way of the fun. Can't catch pokemon because that requires motion controls, can't read the cutscenes, can't navigate the menus. Obviously I'm helping him out but how does a pokemon game for small children not exist?

I'll probably get suckered back into playing Richmond in March but this is how I feel about standard generally. You either play the expensive wrong cards that won't get banned or the expensive good cards that are definitely getting banned in 3 months.

Having watched my neighbor Totoro every day for the past week I'm pretty sure it's just the best kids movie.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

Believing in stuff is so fucking cool man

It should be illegal to present your rewards like this when 2 wins gets you 250 gems (12.5% of entry fee) and 3 wins gets you 1000 (50% of entry fee).

Someone asked me earlier today why I was enjoying arena cube and I said some stuff but upon further consideration it's cause these leagues are full of fish who have never stared down the business end of a Ragavan before.

It's nuts that ATLA, an animated series with 3 seasons, seemingly has more material to make cards from than spiderman, a comic book hero that has been more or less in consistent print for 60 years. Cabbage merchant >>>>>>> hot dog cart.

Avatar spoilers looking sweet so far. Really excited to dig into some new decks when the set comes out.

It's that time of the year again where I'm reminded that I and my employer both spend a lot of money each month for the privilege of having to spend more money every time I need to see a doctor.

2-1 in the Modelo draft. This card of @jackpullman.com's has flying flying and you cannot convince me otherwise.

Rallied back but then lost the final round to finish 5-4. Definitely got punished for cutting the caverns but got baited by mtgo lists not playing them. Magic is sweet, format is fun, they should ban Vivi.

R1 pair into Vivi. They mull to 5 twice. Running hot.

How is it we have so many sets in this standard format but some color pairs have shocks, verges, and fastlands while other color pairs only have verges?

Got promoted at work today :) Never been at a job long enough to get promoted and it's a pretty damn good feeling. Also the whole month leading up to this has been so unbelievably stressful I never want to try and achieve something again.

Serious commander post: rhystic study is impressively unfun. The baseline taxing effect is boring and lame but more than that the pause between every single spell asking if the player wants to pay and then they forgot so they have to rethink their turn. Just the antithesis of a "for fun" format.

This applies to every engineering job I've had (and I'm sure other male dominated fields as well). My "bad" female coworkers have been like 40th percentile and the worst performer on every team has been a white man.
Rather than any GOAT stack ranking, I think the later bit is the key point. Hard to point to any woman with a casting career as not good or great, easy to point to a LOT of the men in that arena as bad. Worst I can say about Eli is she had to carry the wrong co-comms a LOT of the time.

SCG Baltimore testing update: lost a close 3 game set as reanimator to ketramose ft soul guide lantern and ghost vacuum and the flash cat that exiles stuff and rest in peace. Ironically all that stuff would have been fine but indestructible lifelink was too much.
