I keep holding out hope that someday there will be a second batch of these, with other 40K races. Eldar? Orks? Could be so good!

Okay, here's the story of George de Hevesy vs the Nazis! I really do love telling this story. First, some background: George de Hevesy was a Hungarian-Jewish chemist, but he spent most of his career post-1920 attached to the Niels Bohr institute at the University of Copenhagen, in Denmark. (1/n)

I won’t miss Alchemy in general, but I am sad that my fun Historic Samurai deck will no longer be viable. It depended on a slew of online-only rebalances and an Alchemy samurai. Ah well.

“Carney’s official statement deserves to be read in full, slowly, with a beer, because underneath the diplomatic wallpaper it’s the most quietly savage document a G7 leader’s put out in years. It reads like a bank manager foreclosing on a bloke’s entire self-image & the bank manager is enjoying it.”

Genuinely great line from @nataliezed.bsky.social in Villain. Moustache-twerling evil-doers have their place, but I love me some villains that have depth, reason, and principles.

"I appreciate what you are saying. Genuinely. But I've run the numbers. I know what it will cost." He looked at me with deep pity, then. "Young lady. The devil's rates have never changed: everything you have, for everything you want. It's the fairest bargain there is, and anyone who says otherwise either expected to be able to cheat or never understood the deal to begin with."

Do you have your decklist anywhere? I've been meaning to look into the Council myself for a while and would love to see how yours works.

so @josie.zone has asked me in passing to discuss the impact Star Wars has had on my faith, and I thought it would be neat to copy over a thread i wrote about this on Twitter a lifetime ago. Nearly a decade, even, since it was right after ep 8.

Hard agree. The fiction I get the most satisfaction from recently has essentially been ‘competence porn’ - clever people overcoming problems without becoming problems themselves.

I would have loved a 4e-based tactics game! It’s true the RP took a back seat, but I just wanted my fantasy-skinned X-Com.

The DrabbleCast (short audio horror fiction) has been going since 2007. EscapePod (short audio sci-fi fiction) has been going since 2005. Unfortunatly the others from that vintage have shut down. I still have some fav episodes archived!

Wing Commander! I loved those games so much, would absolutely play them again (with a flight stick).

The original Assassjn’s Creed. Got into it in the second game, wanted to play the original but heard the gameplay was too janky in comparison.

Garoamon @gaoramon.bsky.social · 17/11/2025

I’ll be there for Saturday and Sunday jamming Commander! They split the pods by tier this time (1-2 and 3-4), so I’ll likely just be bringing my low power decks.

In 1890, the Tariff Act came into place in the United States. It placed tariffs on imports of up to 50%. While touted as a way to build American industry, there was also the hope it would force an annexation of Canada. It backfired. Let's learn more. 🧵1/10

The image is a black-and-white political cartoon depicting a man in a suit standing behind a counter labeled "Republican Platform." He is holding a bottle labeled "Untaxed Whiskey, 20¢ Gal." in one hand and a piece of cloth labeled "War-Taxed Common Cloth, Tariff 84%" in the other. Above the counter, a sign reads, "If you don’t see what you want, ask for it." The cartoon, signed by W.A. Rogers, appears to satirize the Republican Party's economic policies, highlighting the disparity in taxation between luxury items like whiskey and essential goods like cloth.
