I collect a ton of things, mainly old media, video games, and cards. I've played Magic for 14 years and I've worked on a tabletop racing game for almost 7 years. Sports fan, including the Carolina Hurricanes and other NC teams. Also pansexual. He/Him/His

Here are my Fire Pro boxing packs based on fight cards from the past, present, and future.
This'll be so I can keep up with everything and make it easier to access my stuff.

I just made The Box Ghost for Race Day Revamped.
I don't see Magic the Gathering having a Danny Phantom set anytime soon (although I'm not ruling it out entirely), so The Box Ghost is now on the track.

#MTG thoughts:
It seems like Avatar as a Magic set is a complete 180 from Spidey as a Magic set.
Spidey felt like Spiderman things shoehorned into Magic and it didn't feel quite right.
Avatar FEELS like a Magic set that just happens to not originate from Magic.
I wonder if TMNT will be too.

After much chopping and changing, I have FINALLY come up with my list for WrestleCade.
18 people (counting each person in The IInspiration and DemonxBunny separately) deep and it's all women's division talent because women's wrestling is why I'm still here.

Hegseth continues to prove that he is more of a DEI hire than any of the people he is claiming is one.
When we get out the other side of this, I want his trial aired on TV first. Make him stand up there first and squirm in his seat.

Adam Silver managed to somehow make the NBA All Star game MORE convoluted and less excited.
I take back every good thing I said about him. He is only an upgrade on one commissioner and that commissioner is headed towards a lockout that probably costs him his position (I hope it does, anyway).

Looks like NBA just revealed the All-Star Game format this season. Two teams of American players and one World team. Same selection process for the All-Stars but they will not be picked based on position. So positionless All-Stars selections.

For all the grief I give the Canes for their inconsistencies, I'm super duper thankful they aren't the Maple Leafs.
That team gets rid of Marner and somehow becomes LESS TOUGH to play against.
I think Brad is hoping he can get a refund on Carlo to save his job.

Ah yes. Make a digital console for the Japanese market only when every other market is just as important to your business as Japan is.
It's like Sony reverted back to the bad decision making from the beginning of the PS3 era with the PS5 since they know Microsoft is pretty much dead in the market.

This is not only a great achievement for these two, it's a great thing to know that a certain man from New York that got booted off of commentary for being a weirdo is probably seething in anger that his attempts to screw over one of these women have failed like everything he's ever done.
Awesome!
Awesome!
Mercedes Monè and Toni Storm being the #1 and #2 women's wrestlers of the year in Pro Wrestling Illustrated is SO well deserved.
These two have earned every accolade, and will go down in history as two of the greatest to EVER do it.
Well done! 👏

What irks me is people trying to protect the Dems from "victim blaming" during this.
For what benefit? Ass pats from Chuck? A signed book from Jeffries? What are we even doing here?
No wonder Dems continue to get dogwalked by the GOP.

It’s not that we didn’t want the shutdown to end, it’s the fact that millions of people suffered throughout this shutdown and it was for nothing. That’s the most upsetting part.

I never really liked the Game Awards from jump and I get proven right on that more and more as time goes on.
I will never understand why these types of events get so much hype from people. I guess they just like being distracted by shiny things, which explains why gaming sucks so much now.

I personally don't think it's that complicated. I just think Schumer is a fucking idiot that thinks he's playing 4D chess when he's barely even playing tic-tac-toe.
When the time comes to primary him, I hope we never have to hear him talk about anything ever again after he's out of a job.

The thing about the "I voted against this" position Schumer is taking is that either he is trying to mislead Dem voters by implying he didn't support reopening right now, or he has no control over his caucus.

High Tide getting banned in Pauper is the least surprising thing of all time to me, but at least I get to build it in Value Vintage.
Idk what the explanation was for the ban, but I'd assume it was "Combo turns take too damn long, deck is too good, bye bye".
