The #realityFracture precon 'Multiverse Reforged'. I need watch lists and trigger reminders, my guides are written for my particular #ADHD. the guide is generated by my #LifeOS DA, there IS #AIGenerated material in the epub: drive.google.com/file/d/1ktAf... screenshot samples. #magicthegathering
…
the player whose combat would kill you. Never on the player you're trying to kill this turn.
Path of Ancestry never scries here - Jace has no creature type.
It's a tapped Command Tower.
A FOLLOW / WATCH
/ WAIT FOR - the trigger list
Three tiers. Memorize which tier a card lives in, not the card text.
FOLLOW — fires on a fixed phase whether you remember or not.
Forgetting it = losing it.…• Nissa WUBR3 - draw on every land, flip on the first land each turn
• Restless Spire - scry 1 when it attacks
• Dreadhorde Zombie at power
6+ - lifelink when it attacks
WAIT FOR - windows an opponent opens for you

| They do this | You do this |…ADHD Load
Management
This deck's failure mode isn't losing. It's a Mass Polymorph that drops seven bombs and nine simultaneous triggers, and three of them get lost. These rules keep the load inside what one brain can hold at a kitchen table.
The trigger budget
• Pick one upkeep drain, not both. Dreadhorde Invasion B1 and Skrelv's Hive W1 together is two life a turn and two things to announce before you've drawn a card. Run whichever you draw first; hold the second unless you're racing.
• Archfiend of Despair BB6 is the heaviest bookkeeping card in the 99. It needs each opponent's life-lost-this-turn at every end step, including theirs.
(and so on) 🧠

I got myself Peak's 7L sling photo bundle for our family vacation this summer. The #camera cube (not shown) can be nested inside this weather-resistant bag that compresses down when you don't need to. fujifilm/leica photographers: it's light and durable! www.peakdesign.com/products/out... #bags
an opened peak design sling in Eclipse; a warm reddish burgundythere's an outer zip section for keys and sunglasses, my office badge, and a magsafe battery pack go there, the inner section can expand by loosening the cords underneath. there is an inner zipped section with three small organizer pockets that are closest to you while wearing it. my wallet goes in there usually. i usually have a Telesin pro grip for my iPhone in there if I don't have a camera with me in the camera cube. just drop it in or pull it out, it's like having another bag which obv i am into 😆

my #TLOU themed #MTG deck: _the Last of the Last of Us_ is now published _with_ a player guide. It's jund style goading guerrilla warfare, optimized for my particular neurodivergence w/minimal triggers/tracking. moxfield.com/decks/jdRtmb... #deck #magicthegathering
12:020
Primer
note: I wanted to minimize triggering events, and any other complex orders of operations that I often forget or lose track of when playing (#adhd
2) There's more
impressive decks I have seen, but this one is tailored for me and my divergent brain.
TLOTLOU Player's Guide
Joel + Ellie - Jund Forced Combat Commander
Deck Archetype: Goad / Forced Combat / Death Drain (Jund) Commanders: Joel, Resolute Survivor BG3 + Ellie, Brick Master BR1 Difficulty Level: Intermediate (political threat-assessment rewarded; death-trigger bookkeeping across multiple permanents)
Core Concept: How the Deck Works
TLOTLOU is built around a single strategic posture: erode the castle walls before storming them.
You don't attack players directly - you make them attack each other. Goad effects force opponents' creatures into combat. Those creatures die. Every death feeds Joel BG3 (he grows, you draw) and triggers a cascade of drain effects that slowly hollow out life totals across the table.
By the time anyone realizes how much damage has accumulated, the walls are already rubble.
The Two-Commander Engine Joel, Resolute Survivor BG is the value engine.
Whenever an opponent's creature dies, Joel gets a +1/+1 counter and you draw a card. In a goa

where creatures constantly die in com
endless source of cards and a mounting threat that quietly

claude mobile is a great deck-coach and referee for Magic: the Gathering. my 10yo and I are in a regular casual Commander night at a gameshop in Iowa City (Critical Hit Games 🎲) and occasionally something happens that i don't know what the order of ops is, or which takes precedence. (she won) #mtg
> if i put two -1/-1 counters on a 4/2 does it die

Yes. A 4/2 with two -1/-1 counters becomes a 2/0, and any creature with 0 or less toughness dies immediately as a state-based action.

This is advice I give employees everywhere I have worked since 2012: When crossing _any_ border, power down all devices. Not Sleep, Hibernate, nor Suspend— power-OFF. Assume Evil Maid is looking through your gear while you're getting stamped. Assume compromise otherwise. #infosec #privacy

I was curious how much of a massive collection of cached downloads for #macOS #homebrew was really old and if you haven't looked in a while this is a dry-run that will show you what #brew would like to remove if you only wanted the last year around: `brew cleanup -n --prune 365`

which is it, #AugustLock? battery out or 74%? and why do you fall off wifi 24+ times a day 😂 would love recommendations for smart locks that are homekit and matter and work with #Unifi.

people love to dunk on #rabbit but my kid just used my #r1 to find out how to cook mini pizza bagels in the air fryer instead of oven, and it nailed it. #ai #householdIT
screenshot of RabbitHole Journal entry for the airfryer pivot. the little pizza bagels turned out great, too. the rabbit can take a photo of something while you make a request, so "how can i cook these pizza bagels in an air fryer instead of the other methods shown" was the prompt as it were, and the response was succinct and precise and accurate.

also i still don't think #trump #tariffs are actually even possible to be charged and paid. so much of our trade agreements is linked directly to legislation, which is why presidents can't just drop tariffs on countries or companies. there's no way for them to even pay them AFAICT? empty threats?
