Happy 20 years of Neil banging out the tunes 🐀🎶🎉

Yes, the Grink was there. I'm getting to that. He was on that island with me. And I wouldn't be alive to tell my story without him.

saw gza at a festival like 10 years ago and he asked the crowd "who is the youngest person here" and after some 13 year old was at the front of the stage he gave them $200 and just said "spend this on books"

always dismissed this Mardu Energy deck when i saw it in lists - decided to give it a go and won the Legacy Challenge!

The machine is doing what it has done for the last 125 years in Mexico,China, the Philippines, Haiti, Cuba, Vietnam, Iraq and Nicaragua. The lofty justifications change as a matter of convenience, but the objectives are the same. Securing earthly territory and extracting earthly wealth.

@mtgoupdate.com second weekend i've organised being available for a MTGO super Q and it's actually a regular qualifier i can't enter, please fix going forward

I played 3 modern challenges this week and I made it to the finals all three times (win, split, split !) 🦖🏆 I've been thinking a lot about neobrand, so I decided to write a guide before the RCQ season starts. It should be out in a few weeks, I have a lot to say 🤓 @fireshoes.bsky.social

I think… I think I may have done something really bad

No son, they are not "magically delicious." The workers made them delicious. This is a slogan meant to mystify the social conditions of labor

Last time I saw an old white man get this mad at a bad bunny it was Elmer Fudd! He was the man, I mean. Not the bunny. That was bugs. Sorry. the rabbit was bugs. His name was bugs. He’d be like bad bunny in this situation.

6-0 facing little opposition in the Arena Qualifier Play-In bo1 Sealed. Lost a lot with what I thought were much better pools, then just curved out with this one. Interested in any comments as I took a while to land on GW for this one: sealeddeck.tech/ZB85vsTEDa @lordsoflimited.bsky.social

Very sad to say it seems Mike Fossey, aka Mike F. has died. Truly one of the funniest posters of all time and a talented artisan. Had been friends online for many years, but I got to hang out a couple times at shows in Boston and he was funny and sweet in real life too.

Da goat stays goated

A rare one two-punch of absolute DEFCON 1 shiters. Two of the worst jokes I've ever heard in my entire life, one after the other. A lack of comedic skill so profound it's almost exhilarating.

The tenants of "The Complex" the brilliant arts space just off Capel St Stop are being evicted in January and the city can't afford to lose yet *another* cultural space. Please sign & share the petition to save The Complex

Never know when I might come up against heavy armor. Give me the GEP gun.

On what would have been his 61st birthday, a knotty, unsparing and thoughtful tribute to Mark Lanegan, from his nephew Paolo Bicchieri, who travelled to Killarney to make sense of his uncle's death. www.irishtimes.com/culture/musi...

icymi in 1937 Leadbelly wrote the couplet "Home of the brave, land of the free / don't wanna be mistreated by no bourgeoisie"

first track on the new @themountaingoats.bsky.social record already has me thinking "this jon wurster guy is pretty good"

Reminds me of the best post ever from Phoebe Bridgers

Don't raise your voice to me. If you want me to believe you, bring me some proof -- bring me the sword itself. I'm not interested in anything else.

Beer's my favorite financial instrument. It's true; you can TASTE an economy going sour.
