Anybody else the flavor of neurospicy where you focus on microwave button efficiency? I wanna heat food for 1:30. I have 3 options in my head. 4 button pushes. 1, 3, 0, start. Or 3 button pushes 30 seconds button 3 times. OR. 90 (yes this works) and then start.

Just me? Cool.

@genomancer.bsky.social on stream last night reminded me why I fell in love with Commander. It can still feel like the old days if you let it. This post was my love letter to that idea: www.patreon.com/posts/dont-s...

You guys as tired as I am this morning?? Awesome games last night with @genomancer.bsky.social! The vibes were immaculate even at midnight. And if you're not following this crew, well you should be! GGs thanks for the games!

Oh man. It’s my time to shine. Bob Jank Approved!
Tonight we're aiming for particularly janky fun and I'm loving it.

EDH the way it was meant to be played :)

This is a super cool podcast; it is quick hitting and drops some fun MTG lore in as well. If you're not listening, you probably should be (if you're into this stuff, I mean I won't tell you what you like)
Welcome to Myths Unbound! A Magic the Gathering podcast where we examine a different folktale, urban legend, or mythical creature each episode and how it’s represented in game.

New episodes bi-weekly on Fridays! Find us on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, and iHeartRadio!

Not everyone feels welcome at their local game store — and that’s a problem worth talking about.

@janeplaysmagic.bsky.social joined us for an honest look at what real inclusion in Magic should feel like. youtube.com/shorts/hxbke...

Man, I am tired. That's it. That's the post.
November 13, 2025 at 2:36 PM
So real talk: Did MTG have hype cycles when it was strictly their IP? I've been on and off for decades, but when I was heavy in standard (up till last year) I never said, nah I'll skip this. But honestly. Spider-Man, ATLA, I have no interest. It's weird. This is probably a me problem.

Commander isn’t just Magic anymore — it’s improv, it’s theater, it’s D&D energy.

@janeplaysmagic.bsky.social joined us to talk about the roleplay and storytelling that happen around the table. youtube.com/shorts/-o97O...

Entering the busiest season of the year for work and life. I promise, I'm here, still grinding, supporting other creators and popping out my own content. Going to take a production break at the end of the month. I should have enough stuff to schedule into the new year.

Everyone’s talking hybrid again. I kinda called some of the stuff Gavin just talked about as well.
I wrote about the bigger picture a couple weeks ago.

Son brought home illness again. Proliferated to me. Tired AF...again. Nobody told me that Kindergarten would basically be nothing but -1/-1 counters.
