en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultiva... "For the person sometimes called 'cultivator', see 'farmer'. A cultivator is a piece of agricultural equipment used for secondary tillage. One name means a frame with teeth that pierce the soil." Acrylic on Canvas 20"x20" Available #art #acrylic #painting #gold

I wanted to know the name of the item used in home gardening, the sort of claw thing with three tines, and the term I came across was 'cultivator'. The painting pictured in this post is a square 20"x20" canvas painted gold with a skeletal figure holding a polearm sized version of one.

Hidden secret meaning don't tell anyone:: it's a commentary on the human experience as a counter motif against the imagery typically associated with a 'reaper'.

This gives me the very silly idea to do some trogdor style alters with little stick legs 💚💚💚

Took a picture to get the name off the back of his shirt and his truck stradling two spaces in the same shot. He yells at me, calls me a jackass. I leave and once I cool down I look up the company and leave a one star review. The receipt for my food had an online survey code and I let them know too.

Today was frustrating. Picked up lunch to take to mom since she's still recovering from surgery. Parking lot was packed, there was somebody doing work on the store's sign, and notably an asshole was parked across two spots near the entrance. On my way out I saw that the driver was the sign guy.

Shuffle. Yes, the whole thing. Get your guests to help. If you're doing draft, count out 15/16 card packs. If you wanna keep it simple, play sealed, each player gets 100 to build with. Basics provided.

The purpose of the dumpster is to allow individuals to travel with a simple, easy to play, draft format. Great for experienced players and new. No buy in, no need for prize structure (but encouraged), no need for brackets. Just fun.

100

I'm insane and built mine singleton but you are under no such obligation. I raided my bulk but you can add any rarity, just keep in mind these cards will likely not get sleeved.

100

Divide your total by 8 (1000 ÷ 8 = 125) and add equal portions of each of the five colors, colorless, multicolor, and non basic lands. Keep an eye on cards types and costs, it's easier to pull out too many and then put some back. I varied by color but tried to keep it less than 50% creatures.

How to fill your dumpster: First choose a box and approximate how many cards it will hold, in my case I went with a 1000 long box. Fill it with cards! There is no list or requirements. I'll go over my process but ultimately if you build one you get to choose what goes in it.

DUMPSTER DRAFT!! Having some friends over for a Dumpster Draft tonight and figured I'd share the fun with you. Format details and the night's updates to follow. 1/? #mtg #magic #dumpster #trash #draft #sealed #pauper #cube #chaff #slag #free #fun

Feels weird just taking a picture of a box of cards but that's what it is.

I hate to say it but I think it's because they place so little value on their own education

I think the most scathing indictment is that op thinks people default to using preloaded gifs as a reaction, which leads me to believe op is insecure about not having a meme stash. No shade on preloaded gifs but the internet is held together with obscure inside jokes, the connection is the meaning.

This was sitting in my backlog and got picked up with the tide on my latest commission. Getting towards the end of this batch (12 of 15) and am running low on things to share, should I do a deck tour or a binder tour next? For Sale, Commissions Open #mtg #magic #alter #mtgalter #mtgalters

My brain files his b&w rby paintings as nigh incomprehensible in terms of what humans can output by hand. Surely he must have used lots of guidelines and rules, right? RIGHT???

000

Yeah you look at Mondrian and go wait what do you mean that's oil and he did it by hand. Pollock did Not Give A Fuck and I love that about his work, absolute dissolution through artistic sublimation. You think of paintings as being two dimensional and Pollock don't care. "Watch me" type energy

I don't disagree and I'm not sure I've ever seen either in person

Ah see I know "#1 on the charts" has had an etymological shift to mean "the song someone had to pay stations to play"

I forgot to ask, did you see any Rothkos? His work has a similar rep

Hmmm one uses his platform to speak truth to power and the other just lost an entire tour over not doing the bare minimum to call out genocide. Not like us indeed. Oh and K Dot has a Pulitzer and reinvests in his community. Who the fuck is ed again?

Ha ha ha you know you're a peak magic player when "my most hated deck", "the deck I hate playing", "my most powerful deck", "my favorite deck", and "my least favorite deck" ... are all the same deck. Honestly thrilled that it's become so popular! I'm finding most creators/influencers play.

Today's Technique: Practicing kindness starts with yourself. In the confines of the mind, there is only one occupant, the self. The subjective nature of reality is such that your free will dictates your own perception of self. Choose to believe in yourself. Give yourself permission. You are loved.

Nobody's okay right now 💚 don't ever apologize for taking up space or for prioritizing yourself and your mental health. Only you get to live your life, you don't have to live anyone else's. I'm rooting for you, you've already succeeded so long as you're true to yourself.

If wotc prints a single hp card I'm flooding the market with proxies and personally tanking the value of every reserve list and commander staple. I will personally undercut any creator that works with the hp ip. TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS #mtg #magic #wotc #fuckjkr #freebugs #freethebugs

Another great example of slapping goofy faces on proxies! Didn't make the cut for the tournament last weekend, but still in consideration for next month. Essentially I cut Neoform effects for "safer" 2-for-1 tutors like Survival of the Fittest. #mtg #magic #alter #proxy #mtgalter #mtgproxy

I feel that, I sold the few reserve list cards I'd been holding a month or so ago 💚 the only reason I'm going to be playing fracture is cuz a friend picked up a box for an at-home sealed event, I'm not buying in so I won't be taking anything home
