I'm checking out of bsky for a while with completing my PhD thesis being the top priority for 2026 and getting it done. Social media is a big procrastination time sink and with everything going on in my life, I'm putting myself first. I'll be back occasionally to post updates and milestones. 🧡

Update: I have completed all my sideboarding notes. All the prep work is done. This is my mantra for playing Magic this week and beyond below. A wise friend said: No matter how it goes, whether it’s a win or far from it, you’ve checked the first 2 boxes 🥰 Now to do a final packing check and bed.

Your match results don’t matter.

Your goals can be:
- to arrive with a deck you feel comfortable with,
- to have prepared game plans for the expected matchups,
- and to avoid mistakes caused by rushing, realising I should have taken more time to consider my options and not acting without thinking.

The rest is mostly out of your control.
