Lover of history, food, cats and tabletop games. Let's talk singleton tcg formats and craft beer!
Emergency pet visit was a great way to start my sunday, but thankfully seems stable and we get to go home soon

Pie turned out mediocre, called an audible and made cookies instead. Dessert is dessert. Time to get drunk and argue about AI intrusion into everyday life and the realities of state-sponsored violence

People melting down and calling Ken Burns a woke Marxist is so fucking funny

A little late this week with posting this, but wanted to give a refresher for those who haven't read this since High School. Lincoln was by no means a perfect president and made many mistakes, but his love of our nation and dedication to reaching the ideals of our founding cannot be questioned

Magic at the pub after the vet appt for our cat. Gotta have some good times and remember not everything sucks. We have things worth fighting for. Happy Saturday, I love you all

Ah yes, recruit teenagers with attitude* for my intergalactic war

*Picks 5 of the most community service oriented high schoolers in history

Power Rangers was always woke

All you can do is give someone the space they need to grow. You can't force someone, they have to want to take action. You can encourage them, you can cheer them on and celebrate the wins, but ultimately it is on them to do the work. Focusing on yourself is not selfish, it is necessary

Cursed Mirror copy Kona, swing, put Mightstone into play. Opp dumps hand and passes back. Play Paradox Engine as a super ritual and tutor Belcher for game. Just as Dr. Garfield intended!!

Local spot is hosting mtg learn to play so of course I gotta show support

Remember, they wanted this fucker to be our VP back in 2016. The Dems are devoid of ANY meaningful leaders
My statement on the funding deal to reopen government, protect federal employees, and vote to protect health care:

Haven't really played magic much in the last couple months, but last night we did our chaos winston draft and boy howdy did it feel good. Looking at card and saying "wow this seems fun" is way better on the mental than arguing about whatever wotc is doing to take more of your money with less reward

I just... I really struggle to understand the purpose of all these new apartment buildings that charge 2000/month for a studio. I get the target audience are tech bros that spend all day at the office, but how many of those people do developers think exist??

The GOP really are the most vile, pathetic, and stupid people.. 15 years to present an alt plan to the ACA and it is just, give money to citizens to give to insurance companies rather than give directly to insurance companies? It is clear that the silver spoon fed have just paid in cash for care
Hey kids the Trump Healthcare
Plan just dropped!

Not sure if anyone remembers these, but I found a stash of 90s nostalgia in my old things

I always thought the twitching eye when something happens thing was mostly played up in media, then 2025 happened and something so stupid happens daily that now my right eye will just start twitching

It really is so fascinating to me to watch the same people scream "States Rights!!" over and over again, now simply state, "Well Federal Law supercedes State Law" when they hold the keys to the govt. These people have never actually held a sincere belief in their life, no principled positions

Still playing this one almost daily
How do we answer to the Gods
Among the men creating us?
As I inhale the hurricane
I touch the void and feel no pain
Resolve to carry on
Another life awaits beyond the horizon
Evolve and we'll ensure our survival
We are the revolution

Fuck this song rips
One step back
Take two leaps forward
And with bated breath we wait
For Generation X to fade
Embracing the emancipation
How will history remember
A masterpiece chiselled to dirt?
Collapsing pillars of the Earth
A march of progress in reverse

Me to co-workers: hey my anniversary is tomorrow, any suggestions for a nice meal I could make?

Them Unironically: oh you should ask chatgpt, it has become my best cooking friend

I want off this rock now please

I am so serious about everyone needing to have a dash cam. Even a shitty cheap one you have to reset every trip will be enough to save you serious heartbreak and hassle. Especially when police NO LONGER RESPOND TO ACCIDENTS
This life has always rewarded those among us that can lie convincingly. It is gross, but it is reality. Always document everything. Take photos, record videos, get witness statements. You can be the most honorable person around, dishonest fucks will still ruin your life if they can. Don't let them

When you live on auto-pilot so long you forget you have time-off scheduled next week and then go into frantic mode to get ready for pto

I think this a bigger problem than previously thought. While on a trip with family literally everyone but me would use AI to look something up during a conversation. People just actually want to be brainless drones incapable of doing anything themselves.
the nyt posts this stuff like avoiding AI for 48 hours is hard and meanwhile i have literally never once intentionally used an AI program for anything ever

Grabbed some new beers (new to me) while out today. What should I have to close out the weekend?

Left to right we have honey lager, a pilsner, and a vaguely described dark beer

Playing ZA makes me wanna pick the trumpet back up and play in street performances like back in the day...
