If feel like if it were a current MVP caliber player instead of a mid-tier guy having a night, an NBA player dropping 83 points would be treated as a much larger deal.
I finally lost my shit about so-called AIs, LLMs, enshittification & everything fucking evil that @officialgrammarly.bsky.social is doing. I'm fucking furious, and not just about what 1 company has done. An open letter to Grammarly & the rest of the LLM hype machine www.moryan.com/an-open-lett...
Yeah, found the link for the full schedule. Was hoping for a northeast event in the summer like there was last year (Toronto is 7 hours by car). The December event goes in the maybe pile.
Ooof at that schedule in terms of US dates.
I don’t have the time, money or mental capacity for another card game.
yeet
I made a couple changes after the first run but I think this is where I want it to go. (Gradually drain the table, but no "when they lose life, you gain life/when you gain life, they lose life" loops)
Commander is fungible, wanted something not commonly seen.

Keith Raad has gotten pretty good over the last couple years on radio, but same with Howie Rose, who’s now down to calling just the home games this year.
oh my god
Looking at SCGCon dates, Baltimore is a maybe, Hartford is a very likely. Hopefully some other northeast events pop up for the summer, though.
Unless it hits an exorbitantly expensive figure, gas prices don't really bother me. What am I going to do, not go to work because I don't want to spend that much on gas?
wishlisted for sure!
Tuvasa remains fun but needs a better early game.
Quintorius got to do the thing at one point, which was good. Wonder what the upcoming precon will do.
Mono black Totally Not Sheoldred won its first game but it’s probably because there was an actual Sheoldred deck in the pod.
the mental gymnastics employed to explain why people couldn't vote for a woman for President makes me furious. 2016 was the culmination of 20+ years of Fox News demonizing Hillary, fine. 2024 showed we're just sexist.
Strategery: getting the hotel next door to a Trader Joe’s and stocking up before heading home.
So much fun! I love small little regional events like this. I hope I can make a couple others this year.
Having a BLAST at @the-elder-dingus.bsky.social's brewery event!
I've gotten so many games in today, and I've gotten to both meet new friends and reconnect with some existing ones like @kellis.bsky.social and @timbriody.bsky.social.
Well worth the trip. 💖
(Though based on this game I may take it back, she’s being very mean to the table.)
It made me so happy that @steelcitysteph.bsky.social immediately recognized me at this commander event at a Connecticut brewery. Also we’re currently playing a game! She’s unreal awesome.

Got suckered in by a deposit match but this bonus bet hit paid for it. Only Cuba was a sweat (would have added USA but they were so heavily favored it didn’t move the needle at all in the parlay).
Shiv builds in Slay the Spire?
Shiv builds in Slay the Spire 2.
And then the entire coffee shop applauded and everyone there vowed they would never vote for the Democrat Party again.
It’s a game that launched an entire genre of knockoffs (some of which are great!) and worth every penny you spend on it.
Yay, enjoy! I know it’s your happy place.
Nah, second place. Senator Football has held that title since he took office. (SteveDave sure gave him a run for his money, though.)
It’s got what plants crave!
Shivam.
