This is Meggan and Megyn erasure.

You gonna follow up on the classic DeBlasio "not so easy to find a mayor who doesn't suck shit" Onion post with Cuomo's final argument, "I already suck shit, so I am destined to be your mayor"?

The military parade failure is a perfect example of how you deal with a troll president: you ignore the provocation (the parade was designed to provoke) and throw a better party elsewhere (the No King protests). With no one to fight, the troll just sits sad. This is "block and move on" in real life.

It is true that I cannot think of a word that rhymes with smegma.

That's not fair, he doesn't have a botched penile implant, he has a thirty year encrustation of smegma around his penis that he is actively cultivating because he thinks it makes his cock look huge.

He's thinking "is too brown" but knows as a nominal Democrat he is not allowed to say it.

I see no name or rank insignia in the other photo going around of the same situation, but we can only see one of the two soldiers from the front here.

Except it did. Under Obama.
Then Trump did something stupid (sadly typical) and ripped that agreement up out of sheer fucking vanity (also typical).

The top of the curve, where after having milled my opponents with various cards I now use my other cards to start killing you with them.
This is much more a "play with *your* graveyard" deck than a "play with MY graveyard" deck.
Love making someone Bojuka Bog themselves.

The middle of the curve.
Most notable is Kagemaro, First to Suffer as there is a hope to get a control state where I recur it with Mimic Vat or Corpse Dance, it is a core card I always keep returning to building around.
The Scarab God likewise needs a good home and doesn't have one yet.

The cheap creatures.
Not that many and not that impactful, which helps contribute to the deck's slow and ponderous tempo problems.

The sorceries. Afterlife from the Loam will fit somewhere, just maybe not here - Mothman, probably.
Gix's Command likewise is very strong and must have a home *somewhere*, I just don't know where yet.
Probe simply because I played it in... 1998?... and felt very accomplished doing so.

The instants.
I really want to find a deck that Corpse Dance works well in, but that has a whole bunch of associated design restraints that are hard to work with.
Counterpoint grossly overperformed, always being a counterspell plus my best card again, and likewise V.A.T.S. is ridiculously strong.

The artifacts. Slow-ass MVPs were Realmbreaker and Wizard's Spellbook, both of which ground out steady advantage if given the time.
But that time isn't generally given because this deck is a little too durdly.

The miscellaneous permanents. I really want Invasion of Amonkhet in a deck somewhere, but it is surprisingly hard to place effectively due to both color combination and theme.
It would be great in my Mothman deck probably, BUT that deck is even mana costs only and can't add it.

Surely some part of the problem is that I have ten colorless lands that don't contribute to casting my UUBB Commander on turn four like I am supposed to.
But to fix this I need to reimagine the deck at the fundamental concept level, find the missing theme and build around it better.

The lands with a basic land type, as both Islands and Swamps matter.

The third draft... as I take it apart for continuing to disappoint me, I find I am lacking a concept or a theme that would serve as the anchor of the deck and keep wandering into "slow good-stuff control deck" and it winds up... not particularly good, and also not very interesting?

Noting the point where another cop gets in the way of the filming, reads as "consciousness of guilt" to me, like they all know they are getting fucking sued over this.

What these changes look like in raw dollar terms, per CBO analysis of GOP budget bill:
Typical household in bottom income decile loses ~$1,600 annually.
Typical household in richest income decile gains ~$12,000 annually.

Ask him for a list of which vaccinations he has received, which vaccinations he has given his children, and why he doesn't think *your* children should get those same vaccinations today.

Probably just cynically figures if Mamdani wins the primary he might somehow win the mayoral election as an independent.
