3) Fox News - DEFUND (strongly)
4) Catholic Church - DEFUND (less strongly)
5) Schumer/Jeffries - between DEFUND & BETTER REGULATION
6) Trump: EXPAND ICE

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.
We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Seeing Zohran instantly getting a bunch of shit done in like a week makes you realize that politicians could always do that on some level if they wanted it bad enough and very few of them actually do.

I’ve been tracking my Commander games over 2025, inspired by an #edhrec video. Finished this weekend at 224 games played, which beat my goal of 200+. It was a fun experience, but now I gotta build a spreadsheet to track all the data.. 😅

(Reposting my critique of this outcome bc my prior post contained unintentional errors.) The House Dems are giving the ranking member gavel for an Appropriations subcommittee back to Henry Cuellar, after Trump pardoned him. Politics has an accountability crisis.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.
This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

I like Spider-Man. I built a deck for the new set for commander. I bought some boosters, but I still didn’t like the set overall. And it’s certainly not an influencers fault. This survey feels weighted and poorly written, and seems like they are trying to blame anyone else for the failure of this

Kash Patel’s FBI has been steadily purged of those not loyal to Trump — competent professionals, that is. So how are we to believe the agency isn’t selectively releasing evidence that supports a narrative of left-wing violence?

You cannot trust the federal government
Everything they say should be assumed to be a lie.

Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth
You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people

You'll mulligan less (or better).
You'll play more real games.

I’ve started trying to redirect my energy when faced with the urge to doomscroll recently. I’ve picked up a few books, starting with the Mistborn series by Brandon Sanderson, and when I’ve felt the urge to be stress I read a chapter instead. I can’t control much, but it’s a start.

Hit up #BGGCON this weekend, and got to play a bunch of games. Met some new friends, and picked up a few board games in the dealer hall. Gotta schedule some time to play SETI now.
