Today would've been the sixty-fifth birthday of Yu-Gi-Oh! creator Kazuki Takahashi. It tends to get swallowed up in the enormous franchise it became, but I truly believe that his original manga can provide a valuable lesson to artists about process and work and improvement over time.

Just wanted to reshare this wonderful interview I got to do with the women behind the Secret Lair x Global Fund For Women. It was a wonderful conversation about mentorship and reaching out to those around you. Just wanted to resurface a feel-good piece for today:

Two things: - Strongest looking drop in ages, even though they really did KPDH dirty (the lair itself is good, but it doesn't look that way next to all this) - I would really like an update on what happened with Zeta before this goes live

Given Rosewater just recently gave the closest thing to a "no" he's allowed to, I'm willing to buy the idea that they're looking for the hard data to put the idea to bed for good. I hope they get exactly that. (source: markrosewater.tumblr.com/post/8266740...)

The thing about big lists (that is fun too but still) like the NYT TV one is that inevitably you have to make a cut off and you'll have whatever blind spot your voting block has. Which is to say, yeah of course they didn't watch Bluey or Mob Psycho 100.

Those new scenes they bolted onto Avengers Endgame really just highlight that making these movies "like comic books" completely blinded Marvel to understanding what people used to enjoy here huh?

I know that it's probably chaos trying to understand real time but if your first line is about who's making the "next Halo" like that's a sure thing to happen instead of the layoffs causing that, I'm instinctively side eying

I was just waking up when I saw Bungie's new statement of purpose and at first it kind of got me emotionally but then I rubbed some bullshit out of my eyes and it became easy to see: Sony realized they fucked up and never should have managed Bungie the way they did, and now they need to backpedal.

This is the kind of "okay heading towards bad" card I want Standard to be full of going forward, thanks

Enchantment

Whenever a creature you control dies, put a charge counter on this enchantment.

At the beginning of your first main phase, add {G} for each charge counter on this enchantment.

Gotta be real, coming around on this one Commander precon for a set thing. Both Reality Fracture and TMNT's are less cohesive but are far more inspiring and cool as toolboxes to take apart and build something out of. These are way more in the spirit of what the best of these used to be.

For the Wills on here - this is why conceding to conservative framing on an issue, even if you win, is not a sound strategy. They're just going to check the box and move further down the list.

By default, I think it has to be this Kaya. I've run a copy in many a deck - to a point for a while my local group explicitly associated me with it. What can I say, card's good.
Kaya the Inexorable | 3{W}{B}

Legendary Planeswalker - Kaya

+1: Put a ghostform counter on up to one target nontoken creature. It gains "When this creature dies or is put into exile, return it to its owner's hand and create a 1/1 white Spirit creature token with flying."

−3: Exile target nonland permanent.

−7: You get an emblem with "At the beginning of your upkeep, you may cast a legendary spell from your hand, from your graveyard, or from among cards you own in exile without paying its mana cost."

The Saudis bombed the towers. We *knew* this. So we went and started a forever war in Afghanistan, which is indeed not Saudi Arabia nor is it anywhere near there. But the Bushes were big fans of the House of Saud, and the American hunger for revenge needed food, so Afghanistan it was.

Its super easy to throw stones at Sony for canceling Physint (they fucking suck ass), but I gotta be honest, if I agreed to fund a project from a well known auteur to make a console seller, only for them to still be in the "conceptual stage" almost 3 years later, I'd probably be pissed about it too.

Two shots from Code Geass. C.C. is pointing a gun at Lelouch while he points a second gun at his own head. C.C. is labeled "Republicans" and Lelouch is labeled "Democrats" to darkly joke about the goal of both parties being to kill the Democrats.
