Hold on, real quick: what's 2+2+2+2...well, just keep adding 2s. GIMMCK DECK, HO @magic.wizards.com @guildpack.bsky.social

My first commander victory! Dogmeat (aka Peach) and her commander deck is about equipping sledgehammers to supermutants, but a rabid squirrel token found a suit of power armor and became a stompy stompy 13/13 with deathtouch, lifelink, and trample!

69 days to #PAXEast

When Grant left the Army, he started suffering seizures linked to extended lead exposure from his time in service. He couldn't hold a job and had to sell his Xbox to pay bills, but missed playing games with his kids. @stackup.org and @jester1147.tv took care of him!

Peach’s ball went under my ottoman/her bed. She stretched to go get it. She couldn’t reach it. Her answer was insta-nap…which is ironically how I also handle any kind of problems as well.

Night 786, #NightGymPlus Big shout out to marketing Mad Men who made sports bras and yoga pants (aka workout lingerie) a thing. boy, llltellyouwhat, Billy

Picked up this nice vampire lady to finish my Angelic Vampire deck: $2 for two of them. “To use a credit card, have to spend $5 or more.” Oh, darn. Fire and Dice Games had an official @magic.wizards.com Aetherdrift event happening this weekend as well!

Dungeons and Dragons campaign here at @stackup.org #PhalanxHouse, the thing to keep in mind: 1) Jon here always plays a barbarian 2) Jon was an amateur MMA fighter, Army infantryman 3) Jon always dresses like this and rarely wears a shirt (the sword just happens to be a prop)

Civilian doctor’s appointment for my left knee for the VA. DOC: “We have it down for the right knee? You have to reschedule, I can’t switch it to the other knee.”

Don’t let Princess Peach’s cutie-patooty face here fool you. We’re feeding her so well, she’s decided to start taking a second crack at it by trying to eat her poop. Someone is VERY proud of herself and would like to give you kisses right now.

Josh lives at the VA’s “Tiny Home” homeless #veterans compound: a series of boxes with air conditioners and very little comfort. When he comes to @StackUpDotOrg #PhalanxHouse, he slams some pizza and falls into a multi-hour coma where no amount of Peach barking will wake him 🤣

Big shout out to John who visited @stackup.org #PhalanxHouse bearing gifts: enough Pokemon cards to choke a Charizard! (He is currently sitting next to me organizing them into decks while I continue to bully Bill with my deck of a million kitties. 3/0 so far!)

So much work to do, and instead, organizing Magic cards so they’re easier to access to build out some decks. #priorities

I’ll be right back, I’m going to the pizza and lingerie store. 🤣

Night 781, #NightGymPlus Target practice and technique tonight. Coach had me take my gloves off and it was like the Naruto episode with Rock Lee taking off his training weights to fight Gaara. Wow, I’m actually punching…fast? 🤣

Night 780, #NightGymPlus Now, hear me out: Two scoops of vanilla whey protein + 16oz of McDonalds Shamrock Shake ☘️ = SICK GAINZ BRO 🤣🤣🤣🤣😘 S-Tier Loot “Anti Veteran Veteran Club” shirt available and supporting @stackup.org

Night 779, #NightGymPlus Supplemental Fun NG+ gym etiquette tip: when there’s a line of people waiting for a bench at the dumbbell rack, the benches are NOT where you line up your dumbbells to have a tea party while you work out NEXT TO THE BENCH COME ON GUY READ THE ROOM

Night 778, #NightGymPlus Never kissed by the gods like my brother Jaime Lannister, but I was instead forced to use my wits to survive….honestly, the better end of the deal. “Tyrion’s Blessing” shirt in the S-Tier Loot shop, supporting @stackup.org stierloot.com/collections/...

Night 778, #NightGymPlus Supplemental When you’re at the last hole of a belt you’ve had for awhile (but in the good way, not the bad one 🤣)LFGGGGGG

Peach absolutely loved meeting @perkydaisy.bsky.social and @glitterpoof.bsky.social here at @StackUpDotOrg #PhalanxHouse this weekend, regularly making it impossible to get any work done… other than petting her, of course.

Goin’ on a walkies, Peach spins around in a circle when she gets excited when I’m getting ready to open the door.

Night 776, #NightGymPlus I got your “60% off” chocolates right here (Recreating Alicia’s @watchgirlsplay.bsky.social #ValentinesDay shirt from last year)

Waiting for my last meeting of #DICE2025 and just staring out the window to a rainy Vegas. I don’t get to just…space out too often…but I think Imm gonna just sit here a bit 🤣

Knew I had to check out @drkowert.bsky.social #DICE2025 presentation about toxicity in gaming communities, and why it is important for developers to make safe spaces for their community. Funny to have to break it down like this, but sometimes, it’s the only way to get corporate to listen 🤣

When you open your mouth to start answering interview questions and you realize twenty minutes have gone by and uh oh what did I say

Vegas on a Tuesday morning. I thought they turned this place off during the week like a set from The Truman Show. I should not be walking around sober with the sun out in Vegas working. #DICE2025

Night 770, #NightGymPlus You’re eating Super Bowl nachos. I’m making gains. Kendrick was right: they’re not like us. “Giselle the Party Guillotine” is available on @STierLoot, with all proceeds supporting @StackUpDotOrg stierloot.com/collections/...

HER: “…well, I just turned 31 last week.” ME: “Oh, my bad, I thought you were a grown up.” 😁🤣 HER: (angry squawk) 🤬🤬

ME: “I have been having a lot of nightmares lately; like a ridiculous amount.” THERAPIST: “That’s weird; a lot of my clients have been reporting an uptick in nightmares. Has anything been happening last few weeks that might…” ME: (dawning realization) “Aaah, I think I got it.”

Night 768, #NightGymPlus 768 nights, I’ve never dressed, had a preworkout, drove to the gym, then sat in the parking lot and yell “ZONK” to myself, but I suppose there’s a first time for everything. Well, Peach was stoked. Shirt from S-Tier Loot, supporting @stackup.org

I see you, goof.

Night 767, #NightGymPlus Trying to explain to your boxing coach what a “mimic” is 🤣🤣👌 On sale on the @STierLoot store: “You Can Trust Me” mimic shirt, all proceeds support @StackUpDotOrg! stierloot.com/collections/...

I’m not supposed to reward bad behavior from Peach, but damnit, she cute

Night 766, #NightGymPlus I was feeling REAL bad about myself tonight. And then I got up and saw this poking out at me. Veins. As someone who has lived most of his life covered in a layer of extra “fluff”…vascularity is something for skinny guys. 🤣

If you’re not getting silly name tapes for your dog’s walking harness, why even get a dog? Don’t worry: got some patches coming too. 🤣

Night 765, #NightGymPlus Tuesdays are always rough. Osman comes on Tuesdays. Osman is fast, light, and young. I am none of those things, so I chase him the whole time. Coach seems to think I can keep up with him. It makes for a verrrrrrrry long hour.

Aww I wuv woo too

“Awww, what a cute dog! Are you a police officer?” “No, ma’am, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.”

Night 764, #NightGymPlus Am I…am I lunk? The alarm is clearly not going off: - judging you ✅ - gallon water jug ✅ - grunting ✅ - drops weights ✅ - cut off weight lifting shirt ✅ - named “Ricky” ❌

“If you’ve got kids, take this note down: don’t buy the toys that make the NOISE.” - Dennis Leary, “Lock N’ Load”

“Oh, good: the muscle has arrived!” Chaplain for some of the Pacific Palisades fire relief effort was happy to see our @stackup.org #PhalanxHouse boys out to help with organizing and sorting some of the donations that have come in. THEN, we’ll get back to Marvel Rivals. 🤣

Night 761, #NightGymPlus Imagine thinking I’m some kind of joke. Let’s comapre LinkedIn profiles. Oh, says here only ops you ran during GWOT was with Steve from Blues Clues? Don’t worry, you’ll get em next time, kid. #villainera
