The criteria for a bracket 1 Commander deck are that it has no mass land denial, extra turns, 2-card infinite combos, game changers, and few tutors. Based on their adherence to these guidelines, I believe both Yisan and Skithiryx should be considered ultra-casual decks. In this essay, I will...

You know, I'm strangely okay with this card. ...wait, I should probably read what it says first...

Congrats to Samsung's "Gallery" app for taking over as my default picture viewer over Google's "Photos" app because it... -checks notes- ...just shows me my fucking pictures. It does the thing that it is supposed to do.

The severity of the exclamation is inversely proportional to the severity of the situation. What that means is, if you hear me say "I'm dying", I'm probably actually fine. If you ever hear me go "oof"... Check on me.

Check in with me in about ~24.01 hours to see if I have the "Commitment" Achievement for The Stanley Parable OR a broken computer and a broken heart.

Here's a BOGO on "Things that I can't do that I feel like I should be able to do": Manually change which password is associated with an app? I have the Wawa app. I also use Reflexis as a Wawa employee. Google's Password Manager always shows me my Wawa app for Reflexis. I can't change it.

Things that I can't do that I feel like I should be able to do: Stop my phone from responding to "Hey Google" when the screen is locked without disabling "Hey Google" altogether? I'm just gonna disable it. I can still use it during navigation which is the main time I use it, but still, that's dumb.

I'm not saying everyone should try this, or that things can't go wrong. What I am saying is that Walmart sells packs of sewing needles for like $1, and twice now I've used a small sewing needle to gently and carefully remove lint from my phone's charging port, allowing my charger to seat fully.

I think it's crazy how people will be like "Hey, instead of trying to colonize Mars, why not try to make Earth better?" Uh...why not BOTH? There are pros and cons to both, but why do we have to choose one over the other? We should be investing in Earth, but also, we need to be on at least two rocks.

Gotta savor the flavor, that's the reasoning for the seasoning.

Anyone just start thinking about a situation, and your brain just thinks about what's going on and fabricates an entire hypothetical storyline based on what COULD maybe possibly potentially happen, then get emotionally attached to a complete lie your brain made up? No? Oh, uh, me neither...😶

I just saw someone refer to a Bluesky post as a "skeet"...BlueSky Tweet? Oh no, this won't do at all...

If I have multiple small tasks to do, I keep track of the number of tasks. If I need to check the mail and bring the trash can back - that's 2 "tings". Before I come in the house, if I haven't done my 2 tings, I need to stop and figure out what they are and do them. This helps me remember.

There are certain things I should be doing daily that I haven't been doing daily - like lifting weights. Separately, I don't like that Google Calendar's Schedule view doesn't show a day if there aren't any Events or Tasks for that day. So I created a new daily recurring Task called "Lift weights".

Tonight, on dumb song parody ideas: Sleep Token - Aqua Regia, but it's Aquafina.

Jake Paul really tried to pull the "Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth" against Mr. "Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth". Tragic.

Call me Disturbed, because I'm Down with a Sickness...

For whatever it's worth, I use "dude" or "guys" as gender-neutral terms. I will be defending this position only with the following quote: "I'm a dude He's a dude She's a dude We're all dudes, hey."

Because it's almost my birthday, Facebook offered me the option to choose a birthday fundraiser. Guys, my birthday fundraiser is yourself. Take your money that you can spare and stick it in the S&P 500 for future you. You can literally just do it through Cashapp if nothing else.

So apparently Khalid came out as gay. Okay first off, who didn't already kinda figure? Second, who is actually out here trying to make this somehow seem like a bad thing??!? Will it ever be such that we can treat other humans as nothing more and nothing less than human?

Why did it take me until I was 33 to realize that it's Cow Tales as in stories, not Tails as in the body part?

Life Pro Tip: YouTube has movies that are "free with ads". 3 guesses as to what happens when you block ads...

Random definitions that I think should have been added to dictionaries by now: Daily, but as a verb, as in "to use as a daily driver" Main, as in, a character that you mainly play as Main, but as a verb - to use a character as your main

When it's cold, people will say something like "it's getting cold out there". When it's COLD cold, it's more like "gawtDAYUMN it's fucking COLD."

I feel like "That's what they want you to think" is a kinda dumb phrase, because like, sometimes people want you to think something because that thing is true...

"Such and such App wants to send you notifications" Yeah, I kinda got that message the first 10 times I said no...

Y'know, I don't really like getting into politics much and I generally tend to think that even if things suck, we'll get through them just fine... But Trump wants to put prayer in schools? This is who we voted for? Oh nah.

I'm a bit past naps - at this point, I just need a good coma.

After 19 years of service, my Dell UltraSharp 2405FPW died. RIP. What do I even get as a replacement? I'm using it vertically as a secondary monitor. Also, Dell doesn't even have it listed under their Legacy Monitors. You guys are doin' my boy dirty.
