My absolute favorite episode ever

Hobbes, bro, I think your grammar is drunk, lol

it was so dope we just talked about like, huge statues, getting drunk in russia, nazis, how i need to learn magic to meet beautiful trans women, sandwiches,,,

Ok so @swordsjew.bsky.social is exactly as cool as I hoped and we had a fucking rad conversation. If Casual Magic slowly morphs into a culture podcast I won't be sad.

I would submit that a gerrymander by politicians saying fuck the voters and one by voters saying fuck the politicians are two wholly different animals

Hashtag evangelism

Without being too cringe about it, I want to play as Street Fighter characters in my Street Fighter video game.

I don't like hearing a favorite character of mine being leaked as a guest character and thinking "man fuck OFF"

You ever try to code switch at work and fail? 😂

Remember, Democrats have repeatedly advanced measures to ban partisan gerrymandering and Republicans have voted against them time after time.

This is the game Republicans wanted to play. OK, then.

it's really a profound experience to go from being 15 not understanding why an adult got annoyed when you said you liked something "as a kid" to being 30 seeing teenagers on social media get Nostalgia for things from 2019 and having an aneurysm

Every time you see a retelling of someone playing Caves of Qud it seems like one of those stories where no sentence has any connection to the previous sentence. But after you play the game you kinda just think shit like "yeah, that makes sense but you could have avoided that by growing another face"

yes, but like if i wrote '1u, kicker 1u, counter target instant or sorcery, if kicker is paid counter any spell instead' it is an entirely legit card, right?

it's negate with kicker =)

if you're just using it for the purposes you mention, it's exactly negate.

Yup

ok actual lol

pete hegseth is so bad at his job that we're like one tick away from the gray zone being like "actually, pete hegseth is good, because he effectively stands against american imperialism"

First saw this story over on Threads, and people really, really, really did not like anyone correcting misinformation about their misreading of the story. We seem to be moving to some sort of post-reality where people just want fake stories that reinforce their beliefs.

you hit it on the head is all i'm saying

It Was on Your Table Every Morning Growing Up. It’s Dying Before Our Eyes. No One Wants to Face It. The powerhouse of American citrus is suffering a brutal decline. Everyone has a theory about why.

Soup without a texture

Damn soup has no texture
