If the United States saw what the United States is doing in the United States, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.
Since 2019 I’ve played many fringe variations of Prowess in Modern. Mono Red, Rakdos, Gruul, Izzet, Temur. Ironically I fell off being able play enough in-person to keep up when Cori-Steel came out. Here’s a video of some of variant inclusions (and a cute cat):

I don't understand how anyone can watch how blatantly Grok is manipulated to answer the way ownership desires it to and then act like the other LLM chatbots couldn't possibly be similarly but less obviously compromised to produce responses in whatever way corporate interests and priorities dictate.

Duel Masters has Twinpact cards, which are functionally the same as Split cards in Magic, but the top half is a creature and the bottom half is a spell (Sorcery for Magic).
Something I like about Twinpact cards is that the arts are thematically connected:

More people in your life than you are probably aware of go about their days utterly convinced nobody likes them, and/or that they're a burden to the world around them.

Let's remind our friends, even if it's out of nowhere, that:
- they're important to us
- we value them
- they make our lives better

We in Minnesota take great pride in our melting pot, including our Somali friends, neighbors, teachers and all walks of live. I hold no surprise that the Trump administration is targeting them, and am only more emboldened in my resentment of the Republican party and xenophobia as a whole.

Steins;Gate manages to have a brilliant plot and the worst dialogue I’ve ever been exposed to simultaneously

Received a gift from Japan today. 2 Duel Masters Starter Decks (yes they fit in a booster), and a Manga in which Shobu and friends play Magic The Gathering. Duel Masters truly is Magic’s half sibling.

Do you have games on your phone?

Sony has since DMCA’d this.
I loathe when fans aren’t provided with an official way to play something, and are targeted when they try to do so themselves.

Y’all aren’t answering Rhystic Study correctly you’re supposed to tap 2 as a power move

Duel Masters and Magic are literally so 1:1 that you can PLAY DUEL MASTERS WITH MAGIC CARDS
Duel Masters is literally Magic if landing combat damage mattered more.

I hope ppl understand even when I’m being “a lot” about Duel Masters it’s because I genuinely enjoy it as a WoTC card game with many similarities to Magic that I think Magic Players would like if they tried. (Pic not mine)

I am going to say this only once but fuck these white racists. Fuck them to hell.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said that Muslims are a “threat to our freedom” on Tuesday as he targeted the largest Muslim civil rights organization in the U.S. with a foreign terrorist organization label in an escalation of a movement of anti-Muslim hate in the state.
Abbott Says Muslims Are “Threat to Our Freedom” as He Targets Civil Rights Group With Terrorist Designation
Governors do not have the authority to designate groups as a foreign terrorist organization.

Rebecca Heineman's last message was for people to look up her departed partner, Jennell Jaquays.

Jaquays was so influent to tabletop RPGs that "Jaquaysing" became a verb for designing complex, non-linear dungeons.

@nickoten.bsky.social wrote a great article on her:

What perfect album came out when you were 16?

Left is drone post rock that’s basically satanic country and referenced in ULTRAKILL (The Seer, Swans)

Right is like “In Rainbows” in that it’s solid tracks that are familiar yet innovative from an already accomplished artist. (Koi No Yokan, Deftones)
