Idk I just don’t remember the Lugia / Lost Box / Mew / ArcTina days ever being this stale. Maybe it’s cause I play more now than back then. And I felt like something would come out every couple of sets to shake up the top. But they just keep printing stuff that benefits Gardy and Pult lol

Tbh I like all the streamers as people, but the constant melodramatic screaming gets on my nerves 😬😬😬 like this is the Pokemon card game, not the Super Bowl. We don’t need you to act like it’s the Super Bowl lol

Any other Pokemon TCG players bored and/or exhausted by this format? It’s just fucking endless Gardevoir and Dragapult. Even if they don’t win, they’re always in contention to win. The game just feels stale. And every deck not named Gardevoir or Dragapult is built around “how do we beat them?”.

The number of times I have Lillied for 8 in any deck and not gotten close to what I needed has been startlingly high. It has me questioning everything lol

People who think that we “don’t need labels” are privileged people who have access to everything they need without one.

I am 38 and it took till age 38 for it to happen. I literally thought it would never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever happen. But then it did. And I told myself for years, not everyone gets to have that and I’m one of the ones that doesn’t.

*steps up to soapbox*

Progressive Christians can be a bit too concerned with being respectable, presentable and likable.

I see no such interest in the Hebrew Prophets, Jesus, Paul and the Church Fathers.

Like they got spicy and controversial and they didn’t give a fuck who they offended.

S.O. is going out of town Saturday, so we are moving up our weekend and I get to see him today aka a day early! 😍

(The way our schedules work, we really only get to see each other on weekends, though we text 24/7 lol)

Oh my goodness a denomination that strips women of power and vilifies #LGBTQIA+ people is led by sexual predators who could have imagined such a thing.
