Enjoyed this @nathangrayson.bsky.social piece on Avowed: aftermath.site/avowed-dawns...

One more quote post for this one, bc I am a Man of Games: one of the funniest aspects of the downfall of GameStop is that they dumped classic gaming entirely at a time when prices were obviously rising. They had warehouses full of old games they were dumping or destroying that were already valuable

Thought last night was just gonna be another night at the shop. Turns out it was gonna be possibly my best night playing Pokémon cards since starting to play again almost 4 years ago. 4-0 with my beloved Lugia. I went 1st every game, had turn 2 Vstar and 2 Chops all 4 games. Matches in next comment:

Lugia VSTAR deck profile is up! 💸 Cinccino? Unnecessary. Gigas, Ogerpon, and Drapion? Devious. 💸 Many of my friends and testing partners have already been seeing a ton of success with the most consistent Lugia list in ages, it's time for you to join them! 💸 www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xba...

Dear Bluesky #PokemonTCG folks, Please tell me the 115th place list from Merida is worse than Pult Dusknoir and I shouldn't waste time trying it Sincerely, I barely test and have a regional in a month

I plan to not practice at all and just let Thornapult take the wheel

probs the last major I'm doing for the foreseeable future. #PTCG

HOW IT FEELS TO LISTEN TO MUSIC!! #Art #Illustration #MyArt

In this week's #PokemonTCG Standard format meta update, Dragapult ex brings its darned smile to the top spot, Miraidon ex Photon Blasters Lugia in the face to take 3rd, and Archaludon ex climbs to 5th.

sunk cost fallacy

Games feel super trivial right now so I don't know how much I'm gonna be active on here for the time being. I'll likely just post online tourney results and decklists. Will be prioritizing activism and professional development. Stay noided and stay strapped, my friends.

I just realized that I had bookmarked a bunch of comissionable artists on Twitter before I nuked my account and didn't copy that list anywhere. May have to revive it just to grab that list.

Currently on a 12 game win streak with this list

Nice try, fed. You'll never get that info outta me.

This site feels like Tumblr trying its hardest to be pre-2022 Twitter

was peer pressured into playing an RS-PK tournament last night and took 2nd thanks to beginner's luck.

Can a headline alone be eligible for a Pulitzer?

Cityscapes by Hiroshi Nagai, 1980’s/90’s

quick reminder that in the old testament God said that he likes eunuchs more than men or women

the simple truth conservatives always ignore

In 1890, the X and Y chromosomes were discovered. It was found that the men who were tested had 46 chromosomes, including an X and a Y, while women who were tested also had 46 chromosomes, including 2 X chromosomes. So obviously the conclusion was that the Y chromosome defined masculinity.

Been homeless twice. Also used drugs. 5 years clean and sober. Guess what really helped me kick the habits? Being securely housed

As I have said before, fascism is on the rise WORLDWIDE. That being said, Alberta is one of the most conservative (or maybe THE most, i’m not sure) parts of Canada. We must remain vigilant, but I do not believe this will leak into other more progressive parts of Canada. Sad times.

I know this was my first PTCG Standard season but I think it will be my last as well. Even casually playing, it's difficult to keep up with the meta, which is required to have any fun. When I get more interested in PTCG again, I will play Base-Neo and RS-PK.
