I’ve been helping out with something every Saturday for the past couple and a half months. It’s been a good thing to do, and I’m proud I was doing it, but it will be very good to have my next Saturday just be a Saturday.

Oh, silly me, I bought a sledgehammer a while back for no reason other than I thought it was neat. “This pallet you knew nothing about needs dismantling, and the process calls for a sledgehammer.” …This was all intentional. Somehow 🔨

Conveniently unceremonious lateness - www.egscomics.com/egsnp/cinder... The best kind of unceremonious lateness. Whether unceremonious lateness can ever be considered "good" is debatable, but it remains a relative thing. #egscomics #hiveworks #webcomics

#MagicTheGathering Me last night: The sealed cards I got this time so don’t add up to a good deck 😓 Me today: Never mind, this is busted, I’ve earned back all the gems I used to enter and still have two chances left to get an extra 200 😅

#MagicTheGathering Genji Glove is RIDICULOUS in limited. Granted, you need something that can survive attacking, but this 1/1 token went on one heck of a hero’s journey.

My take on licensed #MagicTheGathering sets (based on other properties) is it's fun when it's a license you personally don't mind or like (I really like that they made a Final Fantasy set), but it feels weird when it's a property you can't really excuse with "I like it" or "at least it's fantasy".

#MagicTheGathering Chocobo Kick is ridiculous combined with Aerith. I had only one forest in play, but I returned it to my hand as the kicker, played it again, played a second kick. Aerith is a 4/4, swings, becomes 5/5, and I’ve gained 14 life on turn 4. Sealed packs had four Chocobo Kicks, btw 🤣

So I won a draft game with a colosseum behemoth dual-wielding Excalibur II and Lionheart while doing Tifa’s perfect limit break. (Full disclosure, my opponent debuffed the behemoth at instant speed for -6/-6, but I still hit for 15, bringing them down to exactly 0 life.) #MagicTheGathering

"Should we really be letting kids wander the world with pokémon unsupervised?" "Look at this graph." "What's this?" "The number of times some random kids have saved everyone from disaster." "Uh-huh... Mm-hm... Okay, this checks out. Here's your fire lizard, Timmy. Get going."

In the Final Fantasy magic set is that there are equipment with job select, which creates a token the equipment auto-attaches to, the tradeoff being high equip costs otherwise. I was so confused before I saw the rules text for job select. "What is this trash equipment for trash?" #MagicTheGathering

I'm never entirely sure how "oh snap" others will find new pages, but I'm pretty sure the new immortal rules will be an "oh snap" #egscomics

I'm doing uncharacteristically well in #MagicTheGathering limited in the latest set. I attribute this to a combination of Aerith and birds. One Aerith shouldn't matter THAT much, but I also drafted the white mage staff and two lands that gain life ETB. Odds be darned, that won two games in a row.

Most people who are the real deal are just doing whatever someone who's the real deal does. People boasting about how "real deal" they are while putting others down are more likely trying to sell you something (even if that "something" is just how totally real they are).

I think real manly men are just out there doing manly things, not complaining on social media about less manly men doing less manly things. Of course, my pointing this out is EXTREMELY manly, but this is clearly an exception.

Someone experienced at balancing on one leg can comically lean into a room far better than those who aren't. YES, this is an important skill!

Whoops I tripped over backwards and somehow thought of a long term character arc for someone that is a natural result of the consequences of plot nonsense #egscomics

Me for 99% of the first episode of I Parry Everything: "Oh my god I love this" Me after realizing it's an unaware overpowered protagonist story: "oh no"

"This isn't canon!" "It happened in the anime. It's definitely canon there." "NO!" (I get where people are coming from when they say things aren't canon in manga-based anime, particularly in series in which filler is ignored later, but I think that's less and less relevant to the discussion now.)
