Here's all the watercolor tokens made for @desertbus.org craft along with a little help from @gavinverhey.bsky.social
Dude it's so infuriating. The game is which will cave to the pressure first? Both sides blaming the other, neither willing to compromise. Both willing to hurt the public.
I got tired of laying out proxies in Photoshop, so I made a little tool that lets you upload images and save a PDF. www.j0hnicus.com/other-stuff/...

SOON.
We're 18 days (!) away from the start of our 19th run. Why not spend the next week with us welcoming the volunteers working in front and behind the cameras to keep our show running? Each shift runs 6 hours, features beloved segments, and might just have a few additional surprises or cross-overs.

To paraphrase Simone Weil (the better Simone) in THE NEED FOR ROOTS, the difference between a need and a desire is that a need can be sated, and desire never can be.
Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."
..A..Are we going on an adventure?
The Nap-time Continuum is a doozy
My equipment deck has traveled a similar path with rotating commanders. The latest build was Kellan, but lately I've been thinking I could change it up and do Ragost instead. I would be interested to see your take on a funny Ragost deck.
That's where I was aiming, but it was intercepted... by Haurchefant
sorry I'm bad at this app - thank you!!

Would anybody be interested in a tool that goldfishes your commander deck 100,000 times? Just curious.
"I'm a gorgonzola fiend" 😂 also highly recommend the red copper pan dub. That channel is years old but has so much good stuff
One time I cooked a tomahawk steak on my grill and it was the best steak I've ever had. I think about it sometimes. Is that weird?
It is! It helps that we are all already looking at lists because of brackets and I think there might be something to be said about templates as a balancing tool. Every deck has different needs, but if we're all on the same page on game changers and starting from a similar template..
Because we're looking at your latest template and seeing what adjustments we can make when classifying cards that way
@rachelweeks.bsky.social we've started to refer to the latest round of deck list edits our group is doing as "Rachel-ing".

I just finished Rachel-ing my Mr House list and found some more room for a few more dice roller cards!
Yeah, I've actually come around on mechanically unique since TWD and I was hoping for something new - or cards I want to play. I do have a deck for that Night's Whisper, though. 💨
All that complaining about election fraud so that no one would listen if the latest election results were questioned
The SpongeBob Secret Lair I really wanted
People's opinions can change over time. I was pretty down on the Walking Dead secret lair cards, but now I'm genuinely disappointed that there's no mechanically unique SpongeBob commanders to build around.
I have used AI to make art and code for work. While I think I personally prefer traditional methods after spending a lot of time with it, I think it's a really useful tool and folks out there hating on it just do not understand it and refuse to learn.
I've been doing larger watercolor paintings to scale down as tokens for my commander decks - here's a timelapse of my latest. I had to shorten the video for Bluesky so enjoy the cheesy capcut music
