Got my hopes up, but it's not the Richmond-near-Vancouver Richmond.

Ben Templesmith's Smurfs

Great to know their CEO doesn't even understand how AI works. It's not anxious because it's conscious, dumbass. It's anxious because you've been scraping the social media of users living and posting through fucking unstable times.

They're really wanting to ape the Champagne thing, aren't they.

Vancouver's Bard on the Beach's version was amazing. I think both my wife and I couldn't get enough of that particular Puck.

Was it a high tide? Or a low one.

Some Democratic rep - Greg Landsman.

The last piece of art I purchased was a Gris one. Ash and I had such a rollercoaster of emotions going through that game!...

Who needs a moat when you have a strait?

Ah! We're a day and a handful of years apart, fancy that. Godspeed on the trip!

Cyberpunk cockney rhyming slang:

The cold = the internet. From cold and wet.
Corp/corporate = hacking. From corporate backing.
Smiley = virus. From Miley Cyrus.
Varnishing = Cracking. From varnish and lacquer.
Musket = social engineer. From musketeer.

Le Book. Arnet Epais.

This is like one of those Freddy vs Jason vs Chucky vs Alien movies…you don’t want any of them to win, but you can still applaud a particularly good hit.

Worked out better for Movie John than Book John, though.

C'mon, be eco-conscious.

Mulch 'em.

I've always been fascinated by these Brutalist war memorials in the former Yugoslavia. They're featured heavily in Jóhann Jóhannsson's 2020 film, Last and First Men which is based on the Olaf Stapledon novel.

Enjoy my province again!

What's your favorite piece of travel gear? Be it MTG related or not.

fuck, I’m sorry, I can’t compete with this

I'm a game design genius

HBD! We're a day apart.

I hope we go from colour experiment 101 to 201 rather than a different experiment altogether. There's so much more that can be done in the space they've barely cracked open.

You (collective you) are much better off with a rewatch, reread, or even a replay of the games if it's the vibe you're going for. Chaotic martial art shenanigans pop much better out of those other mediums than from a card game, I'd say.

I quite enjoyed the first Strixhaven set - grabbed all the precons - however I'll have to point out a slight oversight as there is a D&D sourcebook for the setting.

That being said, I completely agree that the other TMNT sources vastly outweighs whatever turtle vibe one might want from the set.

If a trans person were caught jaywalking Republicans would be ranting about it every chance they got, meanwhile a trans person JUMPED INTO LAKE MICHIGAN IN THE WINTER AND RESCUED A STRANGER’S BABY and it’s crickets.

Six Space Marines a-staring

"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.

I'm in the double digits of playthrough. I hadn't enjoyed a single-player game to that degree since Half-Life 2.

"Can you describe him?" [matching 70% of other nerds my age]

And none of them could remember how they met me, when prompted. A comedy or errors that ended up pretty well all things considered.

My wife thought I was a joke setup by the rest of her D&D crew, for a couple of months. I was meant to join, then life got in the way and I missed a few sessions but was still assumed to be coming so she, who had not actually met me yet unlike the rest of them, started thinking this was all fake.

My wife is for sure going to boo the man at tomorrow's game.

got some snow on our balcony that i have determined to be Shrimps in Love
