Felt like updating my profile introduction today! Hi! My name is Bryan, the TruPhantomAngel on the interwebs. I’m a streamer, cosplayer, and content creator! You might know me as being a VERY good elephant boy or investigator. You can follow me here, on Instagram, and Twitch under the same handle!

There's too many fucking people in the Epstein files. Need Yakko Warner to sing a song about it to help me get caught up

Let us walk in the woods, says the cat.
I’ll teach you to read the tabloid of scents,
to fade into shadow, wait like a trap, to hunt.
Now I lay this plump warm mouse on your mat.

CNN in Minneapolis: We are seeing thousands and thousands of people, we've been standing on the corner here for the past ten minutes. This this crowd has not let up. It's just continuous.

I didn't know the man, but, his impact is known from players I talked to. I hope for the best for the family/friend at this time
Remembering Kai Budde
The Magic: The Gathering world lost one of its greatest players with the recent passing of Kai Budde.

I’d say if you asked me a few years ago, I would say these roles would be reversed…but for those who know..Aronofsky has been a hack for years. Good job Michael Bay, now no more racist Transformers please…
In light of recent developments and, as a proud Baytriot, I feel compelled to tap the sign again. Cinema needs more people like Michael Bay, and fewer people like Darren Aronofsky.

"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.
Over 50% of game developers now think generative AI is bad for the industry, a dramatic increase from just 2 years ago: 'I'd rather quit the industry than use generative AI'
The latest GDC survey also found that managers are more likely to use generative AI than their employees.

If who you have behind you matters, 7 maybe the safest since you have three-four (ish) members of the Gatewatch for protection if Ob does try something. Even then, if you were just quiet, Ob probably wouldn’t care. So 6 could also be good. 8 possibly good if Emmy is affecting you from behind.
Where are you sitting? 🤔

I really don’t get the universe right now. I had such high hopes of some good news working out, and some of it has, but now’s it put a carrot in front of me and said, “But to get this, you must go through a different form of hell. Haha” Seriously wtf?

To add, I think Meld should be errataed to also allow them to be Partners in Commander. If not as an aspect of the mechanic, maybe just as a special rule in Commander. Yeah we have Rule 0, but it’s so close to being official, eh, why not make it such.
I’m hoping Tuvok and Neelix both have meld. 😅

My politics are pretty straightforward -- I think elected officials should lead with compassion, and I think governments have a responsibility to help people because we have a responsibility to help each other.

I'm also Canadian, and the political actions I'm taking in response to the Trump admin..

Revan’s parents have two different heritages. Their mother is originally from Ishgard, their father is from Tural (family immigrated ages ago and lost a lot of their cultural ties). They moved to Ala Migo for a bit, but were rushed out when the Garleans moved in.

If your OC has been displaced/moved/born elsewhere from their family's place of origin, what is their relationship with their would-be/should-be homeland?

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.
