A stat block description of my Slay the Spire 2 run, where I had a Silent on Ascension 8 and cleared it. Witness the glorious cheese!

That's a different entry.

A delicious picture of some deep fried tacos. The description is:

Tacos de Mole

Flour tortillas filled with shredded chicken, cheese, and house-made mole sauce. Deep fried, drizzled with more mole sauce and garnished with queso fresco

Damn, this article slaps. Particularly this section, as it echoes something I have been saying for YEARS. catvalente.substack.com/p/progressiv...

Have I mentioned how much I despise the way the word "liberal" has been demonized to the point that the only thing the far left and right agree on is a liberal is the worst thing to be, and then neither of them ever question why they're so sure of that when no two people define it the same way, but it definitely isn't because we all grew up hearing the news our parents watched saying liberalism was a disease and internalized it even when most of us are, in fact, fucking liberals who want safety and equality and kindness and democracy, and that's why the right has worked for 50 years to make it a swear word, and they do not draw any distinction whatsoever between progressive, liberal, and leftist, no matter how much we pretend this is all settled theory everyone understands and agrees with?

I despise it. Anyway.

You know, I never really got that much into the MOM Commanders... but now I think Orzhov might have some fun toys for artifact/Phyrexians to play with.

Legendary Creature - Phyrexian Cat

Whenever you cast a Phyrexian creature or artifact creature spell, incubate X, where X is that spell's mana value.

At the beginning of each end step, if a Phyrexian died under your control this turn, proliferate.

Well at least I didn't have to deal with crazy queues for the Secret Lair yesterday... oh, time to get my Atlanta badge! ... crap.

A panel from the story "How Doom Saved Christmas."

Santa's Reindeer are huddled on the roof of Castle Doom, while the caption reads:

Soon Doom Appeared Once Again On His Roof
Startling the Reindeer from Antler to Hoof

And then Doom is revealed wearing a Santa outfit, complete with a beard over his metal mask...

"PREPARE YOURSELVES CREATURES,
AWAY WE WILL ZOOM!
I'M THE NEW MONARCH OF CHRISTMAS
I AM SANTA DOOM!"

(Yes, this is John Byrne art. He penciled this. Really!)

But he is total ☠️☠️☠️☠️

Two panels from Nextwave. #### YEAH!

Panel 1 shows the Celestials towering over Machine Man. Arishem says, "Aaron Stack, who were called Machine Man. You have traveled with us for three hundred and sixty cycles by your reckoning of time. There is now something we have to tell you."

Panel 2 closes in on Arishem's head as he says,, "You are total ####"

Occasionally I have something I want to do and look for a proper commander that fits, but 99% of the time I base it around the Commander. Last time I did a "idea first then Commander" was when I realized what a fun (for me) combo Yavimaya + Lifetap was.

Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth

Legendary Land

Each land is a Forest in addition to its other land types.

"Multani's heart is a seed, and all of Yavimaya is its flower. There is as much life here as in the rest of Dominaria together." - Karn

Lifetap UU

Enchantment

Whenever any forest target opponent controls becomes tapped, gain 1 life.

"Keep a green tree in your heart and perhaps the singing bird will come." - Chinese proverb

So random thought. It seems that Universes Beyond coincides or caused WOTC to start properly gendering cards instead of just saying "it" in rules text.
