When I played Magic most, my favorite deck at the time was Dragonstorm. I've loved Storm and storm like effects ever since. So, Storm on a dragon is pretty much my dream card.

In happier news, I booted up Magic Online for the first time in a while for the All-Access pass. Might need to move the weekly school schedule around a hair to experiment with older formats I never got into. >

A lot of conservatives rightfully get shit for not understanding how science works but, like, how can any sane adult say that Republicans might actually work with Democrats for any reason? The body of evidence to the contrary is staggering.

I remember reading somewhere that Biff Tannen was based off of Trump, so much so they were concerned about being sued. Hey, remember what Biff did to the Clock Tower?

It's time again as a notable Italian-American to note Christopher Columbus was an absolute piece of shit human who didn't land anywhere near this actual country so why the fuck should he stop the mail for the whole day Anyway, Happy Indigenous People's Day, y'all

And yet, his stench lingers.

Lisa was asked how spicy something is and she whispered "I can see through time." One of my favorite lines.

Give me a USS Defiant card, you cowards!

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today. Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943. Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s. Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

Dear gestapo trash:

The only episode I can remember of this show is the one where the studio was in a tornado warning. Still comedy.

This is an archived government report that found that “Since 1990, far-right extremists have committed far more ideologically motivated homicides than far-left or radical Islamist extremists.” It existed yesterday and is gone today.

And it's striking to me how this country will mourn a fascist, DEMAND that we treat his death with the utmost respect, but Palestinian children, Black trans women, Indigenous women, homeless people, kids in schools, so many others...are just numbers we're supposed to accept.

It is possible to hold both of these things true at the same time: 1) political violence is never an appropriate choice in a civilized society 2) Charlie Kirk’s dream is to create exactly the kind of society he currently lives in, as spoken from his own mouth

Taking a break from Magic posting to say: The current administration is trying to taking away the legal personhood status of at least two marginalized groups (immigrants, trans folks) in an attempt to make it so the law doesn't apply. We can't be okay with reps throwing them further under the bus.

Is everyone up waiting to see if he's dead?

i might not live to see the death of fascism but i promise to make it bleed

at the most basic level, writing is the practice of making your thoughts known to others--giving them a window into the innermost parts of you. when you turn over that skill to AI, you're only isolating yourself further, putting one more middleman between you and every other human being

In hindsight, I feel like a jerk because I've used this on, like, half of the other one drops posted today. ^_^'

Innistrad block constructed was one of my formative online experiences. Mostly killing/being killed by this fella.

Bugs is back, post your favorite bug

Let’s help the last refugees from Afghanistan to arrive in Colorado before the federal government ended the program. They’re settling into their new lives, finding stable jobs and housing, and processing trauma. I’ll match the next fifty $5 donations here: host.nxt.blackbaud.com/adaptive-don...

It literally shot up $.40/gallon in my neck of the woods yesterday.

We cannot cede religion to the right completely. They have taken it almost entirely, but the religious left still exists, and punishing folks for it helps no one

So, he's announcing the pushback date tomorrow morning.

Once when working at my store, I helped a guy at the counter for some smokes. When he left, another customer came up to me and asked if I knew who that was. It seems I helped Kid Rock.

I keep telling myself I can't be shocked by this asshole anymore. I'm starting to feel like the Universe takes that as a challenge.

If you follow 10 trans people you get to hear about 10 different lifestyles, hobbies, and special interests. If you follow 10 transphobes you get to hear the same transphobic moral panic from 10 different people, phrased the exact same way. But trans people are the ones in a hivemind cult somehow.

Truth. Trans and migrant rights used to have way broader support. You can see the Dem base shift as their politicians flee and tack right R framing needs to be contested, not normalized A "pragmatic concession" of human rights, as morally repugnant as it is, is also a losing strategy

Here's how you remove Google AI from your mobile devices.

Many moons ago, I had an Alpha-5 figure that I kept leaving around the house and my dad would say some other name when he asked me to put it away. One day, I finally said "Dad, his name is Alpha-5! What kind of name is R2-D2 anyway??". The rest, as they say, is history.

Know your rights.

You know how the hero who punched Richard Spencer on camera was never found? And how great that was? Leave the skater punk alone. Let him become an archetype.

Hand to God, I scrolled last this twice thinking it was something about the next Cyberpunk game.

Yeah, this is my math as well. I wanna go watch them and my roommates are Cards fans and wanna go see them this summer. But yeah, its hard to justify the cost and support of a team that has no incentive to compete.

One of the weird things about being done with school for the semester is the feeling of not knowing what to do. I've spent the last few months running from deadline to deadline and now...nothing.

Superman is/should be pretty much this Someone who is almost entirely invincible physically, with incredible abilities, who is almost god like was raised as a Kansas boy by a farm family with good, strong, positive values. He's someone who truly, always, wants to do the right thing.

I watched this and my honest thought was "Thank God, it wasn't the Rockies".

I read an article by someone who went by Nina Illingworth, who was trans. She wrote about her experience and gave me a glimpse into what gender is versus sex and sexuality. It humanized things in a way I hadn't been exposed to at that point in my early 20s.

Just to be clear, this post earlier is now a crime 👇

I see more people flying with their pets these days and I have to wonder who are these people and who are these pets, all my pets are chaos demons and if I put any of them on a plane they would chew straight through the fuselage in order to escape

Elon Musk is a nazi.

First of all, mildly is doing a lot of work here. Second, there is no second, I've found my people.

I have somehow made it to 37.

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

COMMENTARY: The most chilling justification for the Jan 6 attack on American democracy is actually a warning about the next one. www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRFL...

Finally, a good omen.
