Had an absolute blast at #MCVegas life is good.

Been having a blast at #MCVegas if you're at the event this weekend find me at some point! Currently about to help host the Unknown event for Trans Lifeline with Gavin, hope to see some of y'all there. #wotcstaff

Had a blast at the event, made top 64, qualifying for regional champs! Our deck was great and I love prepping for a tournament with my friends.

7-1 so far let's see how day 2 goes. This has been so much fun!

Went 5-1-1 for fourth at the LDXP Riftbound 5k today. Decided last minute to go to the event because I wanted to play our team's ezreal deck again, had a blast this deck is so much fun!

Emerging from social media exile to say I had such a damn good time this weekend. Lost back to back win and ins for regional qualification which was brutal, but had a blast prepping and playing with friends and came out of it with a plated card. Looking forward to Atlanta.

It is apparently the destiny of every trans girl to one day become the "I can't believe she's worried she doesn't look good" girl to someone.

Since this apparently requires explanation last night I was wearing a black dress. We also have a guitar lying around the house. My mother brushed past me while doing something and saw "a black thing with curves" out of the corner of her eye and thought I was a guitar that she almost knocked over.

New contender for strangest compliment(?) I have ever received, my mom mistook me for a guitar last night.

On vacation with family, and have been reminded that my 90+ year old grandfather, upon being told of my transition, responded "human civilization has only been around 5-6 thousand years, so it makes sense that our understanding of gender is still changing"

Going live with #cube4charity 2025, come watch me stream to raise money for The Trevor Project #wotcstaff twitch.tv/hogpog_98

Going live now with cube4charity prep at twitch.tv/hogpog_98

Dealing with some technical issues but should be live soon, for all those waiting with bated breath for the 1 am cube stream updates.

Going to be doing a late night cube stream in a little over half an hour to prep for #cube4charity both by getting reps in and shifting my sleep schedule.

So excited to be back in the c4c streets! I'll likely stream a little practice this evening, our team is going to keep our streak going and crush it for sure 😤

Casting #AC10 later today and I am extremely excited. Casting the first major competitive event of an incredibly high power format like this is so cool and it's so sick that I get to do this! #WOTCstaff

Spending thanksgiving (and the last few days) at home sick has definitely sucked, but I am profoundly grateful to have a life where I feel this way so rarely. I am surrounded by wonderful people who I love spending time with and do so constantly. Extremely thankful for the amazing people in my life.

Heading home after a wonderful PAX, spent my last day playing riftbound and living out my shrine dreams in TLA box team sealed (my deck had 10 shrines and I had all 5 in play more often than my opponents would have liked) #wotcstaff

At PAX unplugged right now and have only gotten a little bit to wander the expo hall between working but this is so cool! Already picked up my clank catacombs expansion and super excited to play it. If you're at the event and want to meet me at some point, shoot me a message #wotcstaff

This is next week so bumping this, hoping to get to see some folks I know!

Looks like I'm going to be at PAX Unplugged next month, who am I going to see there?

The Main Event continues! Watch our drafters navigate The Ball Pit with Arya Karamchandani and Ross Merriam (@rosshunneds.bsky.social) at 10:00 AM Central! #mtgcube #CubeCon2025

I'm not in denial, I am simply raging against the dying of the light.

It’s official! I can talk about it! I’ve spent the last 2+ years leading the narrative for the Magic: the Gathering Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles set! I’m excited to see all of this release! TMNT is such a weird, wild franchise that meshes weirdly well with Magic magic.wizards.com/en/news/feat...

It cannot be made clearer. If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Thanks so much to everyone who tuned in and donated during the trans lifeline fundraiser today, it meant a lot. To anyone who wasn't able to make it but still wants to support this important cause, here's a link to the campaign tilt.fyi/Jr23vhNVE6

We're fundraising for tra s lifeline now, come join us in chat and donate! Twitch.tv/magic

Just under 24 hours to the event, and we're halfway to meeting the donation match. Get your donations and questions in now if you can, and either way tune in to the stream tomorrow!

The schedule for the trans lifeline fundraiser is up, and we have a stacked lineup! To get questions set up for our two amazing panels, I'm personally matching the first 1000 dollars donated before the stream (which Hasbro will then match), so use the link below to donate now! tilt.fyi/Jr23vhNVE6

Been working on this for the last few months, and it's really really important to me. We've got some really cool games and folks. Please come by and watch the stream and donate!

Been a busy few days traveling, but I spent the last weekend playing at the World Series of Board Games. The event was an absolute blast, and I won the Phoenix Belt (won the most side/rebound events). Looking forward to going back next year!

Haven't used social media much recently but figured I'd mention I'm going to be at #MCAtlanta who am I going to see there? #wotcstaff

I sure do love that whenever a trans person says anything negative about Newsom that a horde of people who are locking in Newsom as the 2028 Dem nominee pop up to scold you. Very fun!

Me: Talking about how frequently people I'm different from on several axes (brown, trans, a woman, etc) don't really understand me/find me strange so choose consciously or otherwise not to really engage with me. Julie: also you're very small, that's hard for me to relate to.

Been away for a couple of weeks because I was out of town but back streaming ark nova w Jason. twitch.tv/hogpog_98

Time to cast the Arena Champs with @aryawrites.bsky.social! Are you #teamcauldron or #teamother?? twitch.tv/magic

Went to a stand-up show today with Hayden Johnson and Juno Men and they were both fantastic. Gotta go to more shows by trans comedians, subject material that's so close to the heart for me just hits different. Plus they were both really funny, strong recommend.

Been doing a draft or two each night once friends head to bed while on vacation, and just ended up in mythic with this beauty. I have really enjoyed the sacrifice decks in the set, feel very combo-adjacent in a way that suits me #wotcstaff

Rowling is announcing she is comfortable aligning with the pedophile rapist building concentration camps because the alternative is to not harass trans women.

Got some questions about separating the art from the artist in various places after my last few posts on trans stuff, and the reason you cant do that here is the author is directly using the influence and money she gets to push her anti-trans agenda. So please stop engaging w HP.

You just need to ride this out and be REALLY loud about how disappointed you are in any company that snatches the way tarnished brass ring. Be loud online. Write actors. Call out and boycott any company that partners with the Rowling brand. Make the property too toxic to be worth it at any price

Saw this from Tumblr and it really resonated with me. If you engage with/talk a lot about HP stuff, you can and should do better. I don't think people realize how much referencing this stuff continues to give her power and makes the trans people around you uncomfortable.

In LA visiting friends for a week, anyone I know in the area rn? Realized I don't really have a good handle on where most of my magic friends are these days so thought I'd post here just in case.

I promised more on Xu-Ifit, and here it is! wat h me talk about the trope space the card represents and why it means so much to me!

Trying to get in the habit of cross posting here more, really love how this new dress looks on me.

Going live with my weekly Ark Nova stream www.twitch.tv/hogpog_98

I was on the set team for EOE for quite a while as well as lead limited development for it, so I have a lot to say about it and will probably post a bunch here. What would folks like to see me talk about? Can be individual cards, archetype structure, or anything else. #WOTCstaff

EOE legends article is out and the creative team did a fantastic job on it as usual! Really appreciate the team being willing to work with me on Xu-ifit's story and make her a canonically lesbian space necromancer. #wotcstaff

We had our internal Final Fantasy Set Championship today, and I made top 8 again, this time in cosplay! As of last time I was the only person to have top 8ed all of these, so gotta keep the streak going. Unrelated but I didn't want to do another post: going live playing Ark Nova: twitch.tv/hogpog_98

Alright folks, we're now two weeks past the Magic Designers for trans lifeline stream, and matches and such are all in. We raised over 15,000 dollars, and in addition to that Hasbro donated over 7,000 dollars to trans lifeline through our employee matching program! #WOTCstaff
