“Hate has no place here.”
—Sheldon Menery
So Part 2 of this season genuinely feels like it could have been a full episode shorter

Like I'm pretty sure you could have cut like a full hour from the runtime of these 3 episodes with minimal losses

In a few days we'll see if they can manage to stick the landing or not

Sometimes you hear characters in a period piece reference something and you're not sure if that's actually something they'd know about but then you check and yeah, actually they would have even if just barely

second attempt at this chicken recipe

changed what vinegar I was using to one with a more complicated flavor profile and increased the amount of brown sugar

This boy is Ignorance. This girl is Want. Beware of both of them, but most of all, beware the boy. For on his forehead I see that written which is "Doom."

I honestly don’t know if this is 1:1 applicable, but I think it’s relevant that the Luddites didn’t “smash the machines” because they were being replaced, or they feared the machines.

They did it because the machines let the companies make WAY more money, yet the Luddites’ wages weren’t increasing.

if you're into AI "advisors" and find their insights helpful, may I non-ironically recommend seriously considering: tarot

- connection to your subconscious
- therapeutic or confessional as need be
- patterns of meaning
- self-determined takeaways
- no need to google facts afterwards

Nothing like checking the location of an interesting workshop and finding out that its on another continent entirely

Considering how much Beatbreak pushes the idea that a person's Partner Digimon is a reflection of their true self its astounding just how much Partner-Digimon abuse there is in this series

So much of it is people being confronted with the parts of themselves they resent and rejecting said parts

I'm in agreement that while Wake up Dead Men is good, it is the weakest of the Benoit Blanc Mysteries films thus far

I still want to see more Blanc so I'm glad to hear there is a fourth film on the way

I have two latke recipes:

One that uses 3 pounds of potatoes and 2 onions, it says it makes 16
The other uses 1 pound of potatoes and 1 onion, it says it makes 3 dozen

Someone is lying to me and given just how many latkes I've made when using the first recipe, I'm pretty sure its the former

I have no idea if Calibri is actually more accessible or not, but that's not the point. The regime's message is that accessibility itself is wasteful and wrong. The regime is repeatedly saying that people who can't meet their narrow standards for physical/mental abilities should be left behind.

Probably the announcement I'm most excited about so far
I've been waiting for a Control sequel for so long

I should probably actually get around to playing through the Alan Wake games

ugh.....the wrong cards arrived in my order

Based on the name of the card that was packed in instead of the one I actually ordered, I'm assuming they stored stuff alphabetically and just grabbed the wrong ones

Its a super cheap card, which makes reordering a pain due to shipping costs

And lo, Skirmish events have ended and with them so too does the era of Blitz come to a close

I got to give one final hurrah to Data Doll before they become unplayable. There's no Adult Hero and they need a lot of support to be SAge viable

But two top 4s and one top 8 is a nice send off

pseudo-Matrix/Biomerge digivolution was unexpected but pretty darn cool

Chiropmon Digivolve hype!

I hope we get to see Gekkomon digivolve soon as well, but based on the next episode preview, I think we might be having a Dark Digivolution first before their true Champion form arrives

I think its pretty easy to tell when I first starting playing Commander

As for what I'd say my Signature Commander decks have been, Daretti, Scrap Savant and Queen Marchesa are probably the two I feel most associated with.

What were your first four commander decks?
