Sharing something awesome besides the Mariners. Our youngest joined the high school freshman cross country team, and has been posting better & better run times. We are super proud at the dedication and effort! 5000 meters Sep 28 31:03.4 Oct 04 29:05.7 Oct 08 28:41.0 Oct 11 25:41.4

Boy, you could hear a pin drop in Roger’s Centre.

Hmmm, it’s almost like there’s a pattern here (looking primarily at the set list).

Yes, that is a Cosmic Larva on the battlefield in a game of Commander in 2025 CE. You wish you could be part of this playgroup. (Or maybe you don’t.)

Putting together a new Commander list, and as usual even my conservative first pass gives me 116 cards. Three-color, 37 lands, 4 rocks and sad robot, can’t touch any of that. This is always so hard…I guess I could keep the mana separate, ask opponents to pull cards at random and then shuffle up?

Contender for best Counterspell art ever. (Sorry, @markpoole.bsky.social !)

I don’t want to, but I suppose I’ll need to find room for this in my Changeling Lords deck…

Changelings in your local meta got you down? Destroy them! Repeatedly.

1. THE PRESIDENT CANNOT MAKE CRIMINAL LAW. 2. IN TX V. JOHNSON (1989) SCOTUS HELD THAT FLAG BURNING IS PROTECTED BY THE 1ST AMENDMENT. SO EVEN A LEGISLATURE CANNOT BAN IT.* *Fun fact: J. Scalia used to point to TX v. Johnson as an example of how principled he is bc he voted w the majority.

A good thread from a smart person.

@hobbesq.bolasgang.com Process of elimination.

Again: this is not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

I hope Secrets of Strixhaven next year has a Stone Rain with Learn called Turf Destruction as a nod to its legally-distinct IP influence.

The three great values taught to us by the French.

James Gunn understood the assignment, right down to the credit animations.

Things are looking up, just a little.

Cocktail tonight. The purple isn’t the glass; it’s from butterfly pea flower. Base is a G&T, has lime and lemon slices, garnished with a rosemary spring. Submitting to @bdm.bsky.social and @katsuryn.bsky.social for consideration.

Introducing oldest to “Twin Peaks”. After 3 episodes (incl US pilot): ‘I don’t understand. It makes no sense. I’m intrigued, but it’s meaningless. It’s also ridiculous. And I’m uncomfortable w/ some scenes” Me, channeling Lynch: “Exactly. That’s life. That’s the point.” @scottlarabee.bsky.social

Where you are born does not determine your worth as a person. But whether or not you disagree with that sentence does.

Not to distract from the larger issues and excitement happening today, but...Why isn't this card already in my Tormod/Kodama deck???? moxfield.com/decks/oQdXE_...

Why do I feel the need to apologize to the cat when I walk in on him using his litter box? He certainly doesn’t afford me the same courtesy.

At the same time I despair to live in a time of great political upheaval, I must remind myself to revel in the fact that I also live in an age of marvels, where we can see in real-time photos from the surface of another planet.

Where others try to erase you, we see you. Where others try to silence you, we hear you. Where others try to tear you down, we are here to hold you up. Everyone deserves to live their life as their true self, free from prejuidice or harassment.

Found @hobbesq.bolasgang.com ‘s hangout spot in Tokyo!

Steve saves his pocket money all week so he can go bowling on Sunday afternoons. Steve is terrible at bowling, but nobody says anything because Steve is trying his best.

There's only one king I recognize

This is just one of thousands of harrowing stories told about the U.S. Government abandoning Americans abroad in the USAID shutdown. This is Benghazi times a million. 1/

Huh. Out of my currently built 15 decks, I have only three Game Changers between them.

There are a lot of things to be disappointed about in the world; I was not expecting to have to add to the list that the original commercial recording of “Take Five” runs for 5m24s. C’mon, Dave—it’s right there in the name. You had one job!

Hmmm.

Gotta say, I am super thrilled to see Ron Spencer’s name on a brand-new Standard format Magic card. これから発売となる新しいマジックのカードに Ron Spencer の名前があると見てめちゃ嬉しくなっている。

Am I the only one whose interest in political thrillers and government conspiracy novels/shows/films has just tanked in the last week?
