Him/Her and very Autism. I'm very tired. Mostly Magic: the Gathering content. Sometimes writing stuff. Sometimes it is 1 AM and I am at work and on break. Generally chaotic and about my current special interest.

Cocoon. 📖
A character with black butterfly wings drinking from a cup and reading. The smoke coming from the cup has a ghost cat shape. The character is surrounded by plants and there's a window behind them. A lamp is lighting the scene from the top.

I'm very glad Fire Emblem insists on being weird as fuck. I have given my child soldier with anger issues punchy gloves and a glock and this solves SO many problems in my gameplay.

So rather than go after actual nazis, in power in the government, funding those nazis in the government, or running concentration camps on behest of the government... you go after an angry marginalized person angry about how they are being marginalized. But there is a nazi asset in your post. You.

What's everyone's favorite way they've gotten absolutely overkilled in a game of Commander? Mine is getting Peer into the Abyss'd at 1 life. (I'd made the big brain play Tainted Strike one of their attackers to NOT die but they labeled me too annoying a cockroach to let untap.)
Peer into the Abyss {4}{B}{B}{B}
Sorcery

Target player draws cards equal to half the number of cards in their library and loses half their life. Round up each time.

“Oh, don’t be so dramatic. When your eyes bleed, and your brain leaks out your ears, then we’ll talk about lost sanity.”
—Braids, dementia summonerTainted Strike {B}
Instant

Target creature gets +1/+0 and gains infect until end of turn. (It deals damage to creatures in the form of -1/-1 counters and to players in the form of poison counters.)

“Welcome to perfection.”
—Sheoldred, Whispering One

Like- for me to think Ed Sheeran is a spineless cad is normal. That's not- like, a weird thing to happen. But- having to hand it to Macklemore? For any reason? Couldn't predict that.

Need to write a story of a swordsman wandering the world, righting wrongs with his (or her) fencing prowess. But they took a career ending injury, so to offset this the point is coated with a drug that causes their opponents to get drowsy and fall asleep. You know, their trusty eépée.

So when this card was previewed I went 'that's so fuckin weird' and built a R0 Commandy deck to see what it did. Still one of my favorite decks to play.
Someone very camera shy in snazzy red sunglasses brandishing a copy of The Wandering Emperor like she's a Yu-Gi-oh! villain. The Wandering Emperor {2}{W}{W}
Legendary Planeswalker

Flash

As long as The Wandering Emperor entered this turn, you may activate her loyalty abilities any time you could cast an instant.

+1: Put a +1/+1 counter on up to one target creature. It gains first strike until end of turn.

−1: Create a 2/2 white Samurai creature token with vigilance.

−2: Exile target tapped creature. You gain 2 life.

Loyalty: 3

Ocarina of Time - Gameplay QoL updates are good. - Non-gameplay QoL updates are good. - Link's outfit is at a 10 when it really needs to be an 8. - (But I don't think that'll matter in game) - Babby Zelda's face looks weird - (but I thought that of the N64 version). Like- mostly hyped?

I wanna be- like- more excited for FF Resonance (I did clock like 7 hours in the demo). But Square released the first storyarc of a Gacha game as a full title. On the back of having a three game trilogy of a Remake/Sequel of a PS1 game. I have concerns.

I have a perpetual mixed feelings re: school uniforms in Three Houses. On the one hand, the way each character modifies their outfit DOES do a bit of visual storytelling for who they are. But I think it'd have just been better to give everyone a unique outfit pre-skip.

I feel like Thanos, whose whole gig is 'kill half the world' to recreate a disaster (in new context that makes him more wrong), getting all the grace in the cosmos. But Jean 'I'm rescuing my sister but I have trust issues' Grey gets none. Says enough.

So internally, where I work, nothing changed. Hiring practices, employees, training videos. All of our internal practices didn't change when leadership axed DEI language from the books. Do you know what changed? Customer faith. They stopped trusting us, so they stopped coming.

All the people who anti-smoking or want to limit how much smoking is done in public, I have one question: If cigarettes disappeared tomorrow, could you get through an entire workday without a single puff? Imagine if smoking was suddenly banned, would you give that up?
Some idiot on threads with a wild and ill planned rhetorical gotcha about AI.

"All the people who are anti-AI or want to slow AI progress, I have one question:

If AI disappeared tomorrow, could you still get through an entire workday without ChatGPT, Claude, or any other AI tool?

Imagine AI was suddenly banned. Would you actually be willing to give that up?"

That annoying thing where you love your found family trash so you're like 'these two should declare themselves siblings' in a fictional story, but you also are shipping trash so a second equal voice is like 'but they could get to second base and that'd probably be good for both of them.'

My big pushback to Sony's 'nobody buys physical anymore' is: - All preorder bonuses are digital version only. - Game files aren't optimized, so instead of 2 hours of downloading the game over the internet you have 2 hours of installing the game from an install disc. No shit physical loses.

Has any nation considered... enforcing less toxic and abusive structures on extant social media platforms to reduce the harm they do rather than just ending personal privacy and making sure kids in bad situations have no way to request help? Anyone?
