I can assure you that me not spending my money with AB is not a meaningless gesture. It means I have that money in my pocket to spend elsewhere. I don’t care if there’s a critical mass of people like me or not, I’m just not going to spend money on AB products.

Hey, let's get meta! For someone accusing people of disingenuous self-righteousness you sure are coming off as disingenuously self-righteous! Please, Dr. Socialism, tell us Faux Wokesters how to be "real" like you!

You're making a good point but doing so in an unnecessarily antagonistic way. This is prime "You're not wrong, Walter, you're just an asshole." territory.

That first relationship is a shambling corpse. Dude needs to take your advice on improving himself two years ago. Hopefully he does before his next relationship.

i found THIS blog from 2018 also about this very subject and in it they mention that the card with id#666 has particularly “satanic” imagery, an easter egg of sorts. i think it could’ve been plausible that it was a real crazy coincidence if we didn’t know about the artist’s personal views, but now that we DO, i’d have…

All of MtG is about killing creatures of other colors. Just about every base set has a card that "kills all non-white creatures" or "all no black creatures." It's just less problematic when talking about blue or green creatures.

Only one of these cards has seen a printing in the past decade, none of them are significant in competitive or casual play. Good move getting rid of them, but given their general insignificance I think the only effect will be to slightly increase their collector value.

ETA: holy shit, that’s a hell of a twofer for…

Really wish they’d implement some sort of key migration setup. I own all my Bioware games on Origin, but I’d really like to have them all on one service now that that’s an option. Not like they’ll run any different; I just want to not have to run Origin anymore for a total of six games.

He was sent, like Michael Biehn, to save us. They just should have sent an editor alongside him.

You’re missing nothing, unless you’re a diarrhea enthusiast.

It’s my God given right to buy as many dildos as I want. Merica !!!!!

I’m a field grade officer in the armed forces of the United States and I wouldn’t trust my current civilian leadership with my bicycle for 10 minutes.

But I just had a revolutionary ideal for a streaming service that carries the same content as every other provider does,plus content you can already stream for free from other places, and charge 50 bucks a month for it, like the other providers. Now you say it is a bad idea?

I just woke up and had to invoke P too.

Based on personal experience, I’m going to wager they are very close to going public. Because this looks a lot like the “Fuck everyone who got us here, it’s time for the owners to get PAID” phase that typically precedes it.

I genuinely thought it was Thursday yesterday, was a bit disappointed when I realized it was Tuesday, and then realized it doesn’t matter anyway. /sigh

I don’t doubt what you are saying, but if we are locked down until January there is going to be nothing to go back to. That is a grim prospect. 

I mean, if anything, it seems like a perfect time for that trip! Especially since you’ve already got the time off from work...besides, if you really do lose your job (hope you don’t!), it might be your last chance for an adventure for awhile.

I’m incredibly bummed. I was planning on, in a week, embarking on a trip to walk across the country. Finally got all my supplies, planned my route, had my gear, spent months training, and now... nada. And the window to start is closing due to the change of seasons. So now I’m inside, still taking 3 trips a day to walk…

Yeah, I don’t see things normalizing until at least the end of the summer. This very well could be a seasonal thing, but if it’s not, social interaction is going to be very low on the list of detrimental changes we’ll need to make to our everyday lives.
