Based on the volume of fireworks I’m hearing, congrats to my Seahawk loving friends! I’m glad the men played better football than the other men. Very gratifying. Also I’m so fucking glad I don’t work by the stadium anymore.

I’m watching old SCTV clips for The Sad Reason, and my god, it’s perfect sometimes. youtu.be/mUMhA8Ye3x8?...

FedEx said no one was home to accept a package (someone was) and their proof of attempt is my package INSIDE THE TRUCK. I would post a picture but I am scared of creeps.

Today in perseverating on Duel Masters: I got Black Box Pack, an absolutely bonkers set. We this card that flips between Deepsea Janus, Temporal Warpanther and Crimson Lord Janus, Temporal Warpanther, clearly a reference to the two faced god of Chaos, depicted here as house cats. #wotcstaff

Do you also want omurice?

I know there’s some drama around the pre-release but it’s important to remember that I went 5-0 and I got to turn elves sideways, and really that’s why we play Magic. #wotcstaff

When Utah put a “moratorium” on gender affirming care for minors, they pretended it was out of concern. They commissioned the University of Utah to research outcomes. 2.5 years later the report was clear: it’s safe, it works, there is no justification for a ban. They banned it anyway.

Now that I’m a Duel Masters Guy (again, I do work at WotC, but not in or with Duel Masters, I find things out when the public does), I want to ramble about the newly announced card type Duelist, which is like a Planeswalker but not, in ways I think are fun to talk about.

I was standing at a crosswalk when Sean Nelson, lead singer of Harvey Danger, walked up on the opposite corner. He tried to jay walk across, but got stuck on the median when traffic picked up. He looked both ways, then at me. He made a sort of “well gosh” face. The light changed and we all crossed.

I think a key part of understanding the Duel Masters hole I’ve gone down is understanding is that the mascot card, Bolshack Dragon, has had many updates and iterations. Here’s one of the latest, as well as an alternate art that is, I want to be clear, the same card.

I played this while judging a competition and the only reason I didn’t finish is because it was so good I wanted to play the final version instead. I’ll admit being the target audience for a Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever joke might bias me.

Remember: There's always strength in a union. Solidarity.

It’s the most wonderful time of year, specifically for people who haven’t yet played Cinco Paus. Because now you get to play it!

2018: Princess Switch releases starring two Vanessa Hudgenses. 2020: Princess Switched Again, featuring three Vanessa Hudgenses. 2021: Princess Switch 3 is released, with only the same Vanessa Hudgenses. No Princesses have switched since. We must add additional Vanessa Hudgenses.

trans kids should have access to healthcare. same as cis kids. ANYTHING that their parents and doctors think would have a positive impact. Not complicated.

I’ve decided to get real into Duel Masters. Do I know much about it? Absolutely not. Is this a sign WotC is brining it back in English? No, this is my own neurodivergent perseveration and is unrelated to work. Is it true there’s a dragon with ∞ Power? Yes, but its mana cost is ∞ too so it’s fine.

I was working on a joke about the New York Times being the only video game company that commits treason on the side but then I remembered EA and Amazon and Facebook and anyway, you should support Puzzmo if you want to play fun little puzzles and not support a bad newspaper. www.puzzmo.com/subscribe

I think people really don't appreciate how remarkable it is that the games industry releases hundreds of video games every year when you consider that not one person on earth knows how to make a video game

Demonschool: Is OUT. It's out. Finally it is out. We hope you enjoy it. store.steampowered.com/app/1900250/... store.playstation.com/en-us/concep... www.nintendo.com/us/store/pro...

Anyone in West Seattle missing this cutie? A friend is looking for the owner.

If you needed a really clear example of the whole “conservatism means there are some the law binds buts does not protect, and some the law protects but does not bind” you’d have a hard time making it more transparent than this.

I know it’s a cognitive distortion to see an outcome as complex as a national election and think “this proves out my personal narrative,” and more specifically is the distortion centrist concessionistas engage in constantly but this one time it’s actually just true and it turns out I’m right.

Are you trans in the Magic the Gathering space? Are you creating, supporting, even just playing and having fun!? Sound off. Celebrate yourself here. Find each other. We're stronger together. Are you an ally? Boost us. Show support. Help us feel safer out here.

I'M DOING COMMISSIONS!! This is my 1st time doing an open call, so I'm going to start with 6 slots & go from there! Mainly looking to draw original characters, but I *might* do fanart if its an IP I love. Email me to inquire ([email protected])! Full terms here: jadedsketch.com/commissions

Good things are still possible.

It is essential for the right wing delusions about how the world works to pretend that cities are violent hellscapes. The fact that so many people with different values and ideas live together successfully is anathema to their core white supremacist, segregationist beliefs.

Me, a grizzled Hollywood screenwriter, taking a long drag of my cigarette what the fuck is a Jira and why do these assholes want me to write “barks”

Renaming the Department of Defense has the exact same energy as when your cousin would post a meme on Facebook about how he’s the most loyal person you’ll ever meet, but if you cross him he’ll be your worst nightmare.

A cool thing about game development and also humanity is that people will be like “I wish they had this charming feature” and inside I’m like “I wanted that feature too but it turns out evil people can and will use it maliciously so we can’t have nice things.”

A thing that happens when your country is fine.

Anybody who knows anybody that might be interested in Demonschool and might give it a little boost, please entice them to fill out this form! We put a lot into this game and we really want people to see it.

I went to Lava Beds National Monument, and if you want to be handed a map to an unlit cave you can explore without ranger supervision, I strongly recommend it.

I’m trying to use up groceries on a trip, so kids got two hotdogs. I explained that this was a new holiday where you eat two hotdogs called “I 8/8 those hotdogs”. Anyway, please celebrate today’s holiday by eating two hot dogs.

This is correct. Any candidate cynically “triangulating” on trans kids is a non-starter, and now is the time to say so. There’s still so much time to advance candidates that DON’T suck.

Institutions that endure necessarily develop traits of self preservation. Power protects itself. The DNC might oppose our turn to authoritarianism, but it’s not a pressing existential threat to the institution like progressives winning primaries is.

This Juneteenth we remember our history of teaching arrogant, white men that they can’t flout the law and abuse marginalized people indefinitely. A lesson we need to re-teach every so often.

I was standing on a street corner in Seattle, waiting to cross. Sean Nelson, lead singer of Harvey Danger and local journalist, jaywalked part way, then got stuck in the median. He looked up at me and made a sort of "well gosh" flummoxed face. The light changed and we crossed the road.

I’m excited that finally #MagicTheGathering Secret Lair Nuestra Magia is announced! The team worked really hard on representing many aspects from all over #Latinoamérica. I served as creative lead and writer for this release. #wotcstaff #latinos magic.wizards.com/en/news/anno...

Oh god it’s happening again

this thread is long for a reason—it attempts to lay out a call to action to do something proactive at the state level to help protect healthcare for trans people. this will be more important than ever as the federal government tightens its fist on trans care. please read. ⬇️ help if you can. 💜

Trans rights get really simple when you decide to treat trans people like they are human beings. NB: Libby isn’t even the rep for the district where this happened, she’s just a weirdo who won’t leave trans kids alone.

Only 4 days left to back awesome board game Speed Cicleta! It’s 71% there, I really hope this can get funded!! 🚴‍♀️ #cycling #boardgames #boardgame #kickstarter www.kickstarter.com/projects/mik...

Hell yeah, absolutely the correct tournament policy.
