This is the funniest deck I think I’ve ever built. It bricks super easily, but it’s just hilarious to play. I love it.

Not for nothing, but casting David Boreanaz as ‘Leon’ in Kingdom Hearts is close to the greatest thing the series ever accomplished. I don’t know why hearing him say ‘Keyblade’ is so fucking funny, but it is. He is, however, bested handily by every Billy Zane line read, ESPECIALLY his death line.

Today I learned a lot of people still think IQ is a useful tool that actually determines anything other than an extremely narrow quality of intellect, directly related academic situations, and also that it’s not flawed at its core, even in those rare instances where it is being used ‘correctly.’

Two wild games of commander tonight. Folks decks got to do their thing, multiple times, but it was still brutal beatings all around. Game 2 probably went too long, but the ending was a mail-biter. Good stuff!

The FF magic set coming soon made me look back at the actual FF card game (for the freaks), and it reminded me that when you’re not immersed in a game, the terminology sounds like the most unhinged shit you’ve ever come across in your life. What the fuck do you mean break a forward?

Toxic Yuri 🙏

Stupid Final Fantasy magic set making me want to spend stupid money even tho it’s just stupid cardboard. >:(

Queen Dizzy so strong デズ子つおい

New video up! Go check it out, and please share! It really helps out :) youtu.be/462w6mBO3oU

2 weeks of editing left, and then I will be free… to agonize over the reality that I must have missed things, people will see them, and think I am bad at my job. That impossible to ignore fact aside, good chunks of the workshopping/ rewrites I’ve put forward have made for some really fun sequences.

Yana and I are gonna watch The Invisible Man (2020) for Valentine’s Day after we do some editing.

I run a single ‘This is London, like, for real’ land in my Ubisoft’s Hasbro’s Assassin’s Creed(tm) commander deck, as a treat.

I live in this terrible spot with Magic (colon the Gathering) where I know too much/ am good enough that I often feel bad playing with folks who aren’t as enfranchised as me, but I’m not good/ invested enough to actually play at truly high-end levels. It is a pain they write songs about.

I generally -really- dislike react content, but I’ve been watching people listening to musicals for the first time and it’s let me leech off of first-time experiences and it’s been both emotionally devastating and excellent fun.

i got on bluesky to connect with gamedevs and grow an audience for my games, but what i ended up finding was community of badass trans people. now a majority of my audience is queer, and i fucking love it however, when my game work picks up more in the coming months, i hope for something...

Onto the final round of edits. Non-traditional format because my partner’s the author and we live together: I realized early on that once some passes are done, reading out loud is shockingly effective; chapter by chapter, we take turns on dialogue Vs internal/narration and listen for irregularities.

One of my favourite games.

Every once in a while I remember The Raid 2 exists, and it makes my day.

If you don’t love me at my UwU, you don’t deserve me at my PHYREXIAN TEXT REDACTED.

Theme-heavy Sauron EDH deck continues to rule. It don’t win much, but it sure does some wild shit along the way. 🫡

Wrote a bit about Heart of the Machine which should be up on PC Gamer soonish, but I'll need MANY more hours sunk into this just to get a feel for its limits. Arcen Games (primarily Chris Park, galaxy-brain dev) have always aimed high, but this might be their Dwarf Fortress/Caves of Qud opus.

I just heard 20 seconds of a Chappell Roan song for the first time, and I get it.

I understand evil people who abuse their power, because I would absolutely abuse my power the second I got it to absolutely harm as many bigots as possible. Taking the high road doesn’t apply if I can camp out on the low road and just push everyone passing by into the ocean.

Someday soon I will get so tired of living that I will just fall over and begin to decay, my conscious transferring into a purgatory of imprisonment within social media where I exist solely as an Alundra fan account.

My favourite thing about Metal Gear Rising is that as a gameplay experience it’s pretty mediocre, but as a ‘THINGS ARE HAPPENING’ experience it’s one of the funniest things ever made.

One of the coolest guys I know just started making videos, highlighting horror in the indie games space. I can count on one hand the number of people I’ve met who could claim to be even half as passionate about the subject.
