Drafting Kaldheim ep1 https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #twitch #mtg #magicarena #kaldheim
Ran RW, only managed a meager 3-3, but that’s plenty since I feel like I drafted terribly lol.

Streaming some late-night Kaldheim sealed! https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #twitch #mtg #magicarena
I ended up playing a dumb 3-color deck and only went 2-3 due to mana issues and being unable to kill big dudes. Draft next week probably!

The whole Gamestop brouhaha reminds me of the explanation I made for stock market prices a while back on reddit’s ELI5 forum: https://www.reddit.com/r/explainlikeimfive/comments/6c9plk/eli5_stock_prices_constantly_changing/dhtc9qo/?context=3
“There is no magic formula that predicts what stock prices will be (whoever discovers that first will be rich). It’s largely a matter of perception and psychology. Sometimes stock prices move mainly because of rumors or speculation.” -> basically everything’s made up, lol
And if I may add, if this reddit thing ends up as a catalyst to topple/reform capitalism, unlikely as it may seem, I would find that hilarious

No, I only got the one search result and that was the matching one

I followed the Sporza feed that was the result of pasting that url, and it looks like it’s the correct one:

@angelicaaira I think most people naman are dealing with some level of fear and/or anxiety, it’s just that hindi sya visible for most people, and there are those who can handle it better, so sometimes you can feel like ikaw lang ang ganun sa mundo. Rest assured, it gets better

Write despite rejection. Write like the world is ending. Write like this may be the last minute you have to say the inarticulable thing. And write in spite of the world–with love for this irredeemable beautiful ravaged planet. Write for the mouse in the kitchen.

Repost from hankgreen:
Platforms should not be responsible for a person making awful content. They are absolutely responsible when they put it in front of people who didn’t even know it existed. They should know the difference between hosting awful content and choosing to broadcast it. We all should.

2021 movie no. 3: World War Z (2013). Pretty typical action movie I think, entertaining enough. Should have watched at the start of the pandemic.
-
I see some people posting like “why are you all excited about biden, the US is still going to be imperialist/not progressive enough/whatever” and i’m like ugh sure whatever, lots of room for improvement still, but did you actually prefer trump?
The US just kicked out a racist, misogynistic, egocentric sociopath president, let them enjoy that for a little bit maybe? There’s no shortage of people willing to push their admin for reforms either.

Repost from SayChiz:
PRRD said that its unfair that only UP & PUP have a pact… I completely agree!!!! So why not enter into a similar pact with ALL THE OTHER UNIVERSITIES or, better yet, pass a law that will guaramtee this to ALL UNIVERSITIES instead of abrogating these two. #TrustTheFilipinoYouth

2021 #movies no 2: The Godfather part 2 (1974). This is two movies rolled into one. Still pretty good, but I think I liked the singular focus of the first one more.
-
2021 movies no. 1: The Godfather (1972). Everyone is so young! Such a well-told gangster tale. Looking forward to the sequel

Fun use of the counters to get around memory issues in paper.
If it only has the flying counter -> it’s a 4/4 Spirit Warrior Angel
If it has the flying counter and the 2 +1/+1s -> It has the Ophidian ability
(If the +1/+1s get removed, you start to get confused.)
There is no counter to help with the 2/3 mode.

OK, I don’t have high expectations or anything, but that trailer animation was pretty good

Posted on r/MagicArena: Foretell and Revealed Cards in Hand on Arena
I’m wondering how Arena will handle using Foretell when some of the cards in the opponent’s hand are revealed to you, since the card you exile with foretell should be hidden information. i.e., if I thoughtseize you and you’re holding 3 different foretell cards, then during your turn you pay 2 and exile one of them, the other 2 should no longer be revealed to me, since I would be able to deduce which card was exiled.
Have they made any statement about this? I’m not super confident they’d handle it well lol.

Has this “government” actually made any comment on the price difference as compared to other vaccines?

Over 40. I think yes, even in the 90s. I do remember hearing about things like Saddam invading Kuwait, fall of the Soviet Union, Desert Storm, etc. The main difference for me today is that we get a lot more “internal to the US” news, or maybe that’s just the sources I follow.
Quoted itxaropena's tweet:Over 30s of Twitter,
Was your teenage life surrounded with many world events?
Was the world this crazy back then?

I wonder if the US cop procedurals (NCIS, etc) have started putting white supremacists/altright nazis/homegrown terrorists into their regular rotation of villains

So far the only thing we can be sure about in the Dacera case is how incompetent our cops are. So, nothing new.
