JFC, redditors think getting milled in MTG is a good thing BECAUSE IT'S GOOD FOR ONE DECK ARCHETYPE. if you're not playing a recursion or reanimate heavy deck mill is bad, but they were told it's good in this one situation by a YouTuber or something and now it's good to be milled. fucking idiots.

new calendar system idea, 13 months of 28 days, and every 4 years we tack on an extra 5 days. during those 5 days we just throw some super crazy ass parties. like the sort of parties no one remembers until years later when it all comes rushing back all at once in some kind of acid flashback.
