Solaris, a tuxedo cat, sat on the back porch with the sun and trees to his back

boy

a better lyrical adaptation from toy story would be:

you've got a friend in me
you've got ~that dicc~ in me

what if i told y'all the trojan horse never happens in the iliad

what does happen:
-getting stabbed in the dick, the worst death according to ares
-hector chiding his brother paris with the best insult of all time: "you are the very best at looking pretty" (also translated as "prince of beauty")

i may have spent multiple hours coming up with a list of 100 games i've played that have left some sort of thumbprint

thinking about that time James Bond came up with the alias of economic journalist James Stock

tbh the disillusionment m:tg fans feel towards UB and the ever increasing schedule of set releases is how I feel about Gunpla. I don't care how bleeding edge the newest Real Grade is. just show me some goofy lil guy from a 1982 MSV file instead of a 60 kit deep hoarder backlog

average m:tg fan: "i hate the tmnt pizza lands"
me: "the forest broccoli pizza needs more goat cheese to be like the broccoli-spinach-goat cheese ranch pizza they served at Alamo Drafthouse as a limited time special for TMNT Mutant Mayhem that was so good they brought it back for other movies"

that's tuesday

the plot for final fantasy 16 is what happens when you grab your alien vs. predator action figures and make them fight by shouting bible verses at each other

while i get the sentiment, i remember screeds from the late aughts on mtgsalvation on how the introduction of the planeswalker card type would kill the game. everything has always been killing magic.
magic will have bad sets. bad sets will still have interesting cards. there have been worse sets.

and now for my two cents of M:TG strawmanning: "marvel is ruining the magic i grew up with," says local man who has never played a card from Saviors of Kamigawa

i need pants with that cut of wide leg

she's a 10 but she thinks kermit the frog is a mediocre asshole

No new words; everything we interface with publicly loves white supremacy and that’s just that

the icon, the artist, the art

hell yeah we're going to the books-a-million and buying yaoi

self portrait where i realize i look like i can play mellotron in a band named after a mushroom

the text "Magic the Gathering" displayed in dubious font choices on a golden rounded hexagon, evoking the new Cracker Barrel logo redesign

mocked this up yesterday, need to put it on some sleeves

just finished Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

combat and exploration are pretty meh but i appreciate the game going full tilt on Gay Wrath Month, moral dilemmas, hot Scotsman, etc.

the game's got like ten queer characters between the living and the dead in Puritan 1690s Massachusetts. hell yeah

arc-slogger! arc-slogger! arc-slogger!

Enough people said they wanted to see the final slide deck, so I took the time to put it on my non-teacher github so I could share it. I didn't end up getting in trouble. I ended up being encouraged by a colleague to share it with my dept chair, and he liked it

gonna tell my kids this is Zero Escape

week one: mars cheese castle
week two: goat cheese castle (it's trees)

"The Trump administration are doing this to distract from-" STOP. Quit resorting to this narrative. Atrocities compound. Each evil deed isn't some sleight of hand trick to conceal another. This is an overwhelming shock & awe, smash & grab campaign. Nothing they do to hurt others is unimportant.

Hulk Hogan ratted out other wrestlers attempting to unionize to save his own position and paycheck above anyone else's & gladly accepted funding from Peter Thiel for his Gawker court case that paved frequently abused legal precedents for the rich to shut down any media outlets that embarrass them.
