All I see is that that front Pikachu is eager to support the glory of New Phyrexia.
I'm interpreting this effect as a "You are already loved" secret technique that feels like nothing happened until 10 seconds later you suddenly collapse in warm fuzzies.
So like this definition would not be worth humoring due to it describing specifically trans people, not putting enough emphasis on the "exclusive access" part, explicitly including truscum under it, and effectively reducing it to merely a specific form of respectability politics?
So you think transmedicalism should be limited to the blue, but some people are using it to refer to the red? Considering the original transmedicalists were far in the upper-left, isn't that a practical question of how closely the two axes are related to one another?
And finally a for-fun 2-1 with a ramp deck in a cube that added Learn and Lesson to some of the cards.
People dropping out let me sneak into the top 64 round, but 1-2 on Doubleton Synergy Cube means I'm out of it now. Unfortunately I think i may have been able to win both if I played a bit better. :( Forgot about a sideboard card, and both went to game 3, with one ending on a literal 50/50 chance.
Top 64 continue on to the main tournament day 2, the rest do more for-fun cubes. And lol...
And 2-1 on the last one for the day with UW weenies out of the GUT cube. Geist of st. Traft and Curious Obsession did loads of work, and lost the finals in game 3 to a ridiculous RW Heroic deck. The final turn was her killing me from 16 past a blocker!
1-2 (Win is a bye) with messy myr ram in Etherium Landscape. Didn't win a single game. :( Really tunnel-visioned on the draft and got punished for it. Got out platinum angel once, but I didn't have the critical mass to actually get things out at a good pace.
At Boston Cube Party! Last non-prerelease Magic event I went to, i was trying out the newly-legal Opt in my Modern deck, so wish me luck!

Apologies for discourse-posting, I promise not to make it a habit, but the fact so many people who liked the first post are also liking the second post is why I have little respect for a chunk of the "trans community" on here. No universal principles, only protecting your "side".

Going down a different branch of comics than a lot of the other quotes here, but hey, it's what I know. Spoiler warnings for Order of the Stick, Digger, xkcd Time, and Kill Six Billion Demons (also the nudity label is real for the last one, not just a fake spoiler-protecting one :P)
Two full years of tracking my trips to the gym, and I've managed to keep almost a 2 visits/week rate. Have been aiming for 3, but still proud of myself.
You may have managed to chose the one major liberal philosopher who explicitly endorsed the principle that taxes purely to prevent the accumulation of wealth are justified.
It might come from the Freedom, Forever ending of the SCP Foundation End of Death canon. Doing that was used there as the punishment for people who had effectively knowingly sent people to hell. Seems like the sort of thing she'd be aware of.

Took me quite a while to recognize where it was. Never would have called that the "island" in the lower-left is Spain and Portugal. Really shows how much the actual Earth doesn't care about borders and our own assumptions about up and down and smushing it into a flat surface.
Oh, well, that's a small problem. Obviously not blaming them, but it is a bit of a roadblock.
