The MTG card Null Brooch, which allows you to discard cards to counter spells. I don't remember the set name, but it's the first one that changed the colour of the expansion symbol to denote rarity.
I should see this one pop up more than it does.
One thing watching a lot of low-budget movies has taught me is that it is apparently far, far harder to cast a convincing villain than it is to find a leading man or lady. Lots of people are likable. Genuine, magnetic menace is rare.
The game being an isometric RPG has always bothered me because it seems like entirely the wrong interface for the kind of story it wants to tell.
He was wearing all-green and a big, bulbous pair of goggles. Really leaning into his personal brand. I didn't buy any drugs from him but I cannot vouch for my housemates.
Years ago there was a guy hanging out at a sharehouse I lived in who kept introducing himself as Bullfrog. I don't think I even had a conversation with him beyond "hey man, my name is Bullfrog" but I've never forgiven his egregious flouting of the rule that you can't give yourself a nickname.
Listening to my wife and eight-year-old attempting to bake cupcakes together and being very glad indeed that I have no skin in that particular game.
The funniest thing a public figure can do is to reveal to the world that who they think they are bears no resemblance to who they actually are. John Cleese thought he was a leading man. Prince Harry thought he could top the global A-list. Melania thinks she's a figure of grace and dignity.
Mad Max with a head injury.
Australians, like Commando and Seaquest DSV.
Genuinely elevated by its choice to make Amy Madigan's character a person you would avoid making eye contact with if you were to encounter them.
History of the Occult was so much better.
Just watched it again! Still great.
Have you seen 'Bad Day For The Cut'? Goes almost as hard.
The Infinite Man!
No! Easily the best thing about the crossover sets are the new people who get into the game.
Great channel.
There's Something coming in Ashes and I'll be very interested to see what you make of it.
The Last Policeman series by Ben H Winters? Follows a cop Investigating a murder six months out from the arrival of a civilisation-ending meteorite. Michael Marshall's Straw Men trilogy, too. The second book gets way out there.
I knew exactly which death this referred to before clicking through, haha.

It was probably like that scene from Futurama where Zapp Brannigan yelled the word "erotic" so loud everyone on the ship could hear.
Me after reading a funny skeet: remember that scene in Resident Evil where people get diced by lasers?
My wife, not really listening: I've never seen Reservoir Dogs.
If your story ends with your protaganist lost in an endless multiverse, sent to the other side of the galaxy, or otherwise incapable of ever returning home, make sure to include a scene at the beginning where they call in sick to a job they hate so we know this is the best possible outcome for them.
I remember my housemate was instantly hooked by this episode, after I'd been telling him to watch for weeks. Strong start with his mother's call coming through on the unplugged phone.
Aphemia, a magic card depicting a horrible singer
Self-mill/enchantress that also does a bit of "all of the above."

My eight year old shared his plan to move into a sharehouse with his friends at nineteen and support himself with a part time job. It made me a little sad to consider how utterly unrealistic something that was a relatively mundane rite of passage when I was young has since become.
Every time a death spiral has looked like even a remote possibility someone has spent billions of dollars propping up the value of BTC. If the purchase price of BTC drops below the mining cost, this would be catastrophic for the whole sector. People will burn tons of cash to stop this happening.
What are the "actual craft rules." What are they. Why did nobody tell me I could just skip reading and writing if I knew these rules.
His wikipedia page has apparently seen a flurry of activity. Someone getting ready to switch the tenses from "is" to "was."
You are not entitled to redemption. Your works and perceived generosity may once have been held in high regard by many people you had never met. When they discovered that your actions contradicted your professed values, that was it. You had your time and now it is over, never to return.
