Staying awake until 2am to win a gameshow for charity? Couldn't be me.

(Also @aggroblaze96.bsky.social looks like he's seen god)

Best way to warm up for Worlds?

Winning a Pro Quest, of course.
I'll see you in Yokohama! 💜

Cool little factoid: I published a whopping *thirty* articles last month despite being locked out of my work devices for a week - across six different games!

Content machine go brrrrrrrr. 💜

#fabtcg content creators: With SAGE becoming a major format, I created a Google folder with young hero cutouts. I'll continue to add heroes as I finish them, but I'm hoping this helps save people time when creating SAGE content!

I don't think I've ever left a meeting in tears before, so that's how my day is going.

I won't pretend this situation doesn't absolutely suck, but I do appreciate the humility here, at least.

It's clear that a few too many mistakes have been happening as of late, but I trust LSS to learn from them as they always have.

Thanks for reading 💜

Highlight of the day was Gengar staring down my opponent while my real eyes focused on sending almost 80 damage over two turns.

Lost in the Top 8 of my LL Pro Quest on Dash I/O. Briar had my number all day, unfortunately.

This deck just isn't for me in Living Legend. We try again 😞

Listen, it's been a diabolical week. One of those that keeps getting worse with each passing day.

But three people have messaged me about signing cards at Worlds/Meeting at the World Premiere today, so none of that matters anymore. 💜

This is your regularly scheduled reminder that it's okay to struggle.

If surviving was all you did today, that means you've earned tomorrow 💜
