Early on, those first three cards, it was the art that hooked me before I even knew how to play. I was a kid holding an incredible creature or evocative moment
And then some other cards that I’ve played across formats many, many times
Okay, I’ll play!
It’s kind of hard to grasp that there were that many people, and I’m just glad we managed to get all those events off the ground relatively on time without something catching fire 😅
“We must risk delight. We can do without pleasure,
but not delight. Not enjoyment. We must have
the stubbornness to accept our gladness in the ruthless
furnace of this world.”

I unironically would like that Sheltered if anyone has a line on one and it’s not insanely pricey. Gotta rep Thalia
Done. Took three minutes. If you use Discord, tell them what you think.
I finished The Chair Company season one and I just had to ask what the Fuck did I just watch
It says Power Creep but I’m not 100% sure that Doom is better than Grave Titan…
Just learned something unbelievable
Did you know poetry can rhyme?!
Very proud to have been on the editorial team of Florida Review the last few years—congrats to Bertha and all!
The Red Poppy The great thing is not having a mind. Feelings: oh, I have those; they govern me. I have a lord in heaven called the sun, and open for him, showing him the fire of my own heart, fire like his presence. What could such glory be if not a heart? Oh my brothers and sisters, were you like me once, long ago, before you were human? Did you permit yourselves to open once, who would never open again? Because in truth I am speaking now the way you do. I speak because I am shattered.
Louise Glück ♥️
“I speak / because I am shattered.”
Always revisiting this poem.
Oh I am EXCITED, Molly! This one is so good.
“Flavor text” is the intersection of two of my passions: literature and MTG, so I sorted through well over a thousand cards’ flavor to find the best texts of the year. Check out the article at @edhrec.com: edhrec.com/articles/the...
Yes! The lifegain/bats package has been carrying me almost unchanged since BLB, usually going to Diamond/Mythic on arena just grinding daily quests. My list is quite close to yours (though I never got around to Passages), a slightly more aggressive build
Haliya was such a good pickup for this deck.

Happy “you bought a few gifts online so enjoy the next six months trying to unsubscribe from more newsletters than you ever thought even existed” season for those who celebrate it
Kinda have a dream job working not just for an LGS, but one staffed by and frequented by really amazing people?
Idk, Meteor Golem may not be a flashy card or a financial hit, but it gets the job done (I run it in some decks). And thematically i think it works—like, the dude wrecks ANYthing when it comes in
A quote on “seriousness” in individuals from an old lecture by John Cleese. Feels especialy apt lately—
Honored to have two poems from my pandemic crown of sonnets in the latest South Dakota Review along with several friends and writers I admire. Thank you to @artichokeheart.bsky.social for including me in this storied journal.
That jump on that ante is particularly steep
There’s a small handful of people that I don’t follow back because it seems they follow everyone/have no interest in real connection, and then every few months I get another notification that they’ve followed me yet another time.
Not interested in folks that are just follower-farming
Holy crap that’s the play. Yes.
sex is fine but have you ever had someone review your poetry who fundamentally gets what you were doing and a few things you didn't realize you were doing?
One must imagine Sisyphus happily mulling to three
So excited to finally be able to move this nerd hub to a bigger place downtown that our community deserves!
