Gooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaal
Pinball Wizard
Posts by JuneBug - Berta’s Biggest Fan
Nothing quite like another year watching the Wild blow it in the first round… there’s always next year 🫠
So I turned the game on to be ready for the Wild game and Philly scored twice in short order… am I a Flyers fan now?
Yes please. Pittsburgh was my team back when Fluery played for them but now I’m tired of the golden child 😂
I’ve got my eye on the next game though. I like to pretend the Wild might make it past the first round every year, call it misplaced hope 😅
Magic Card “Narwhal” 2/2 blue “whale” creature with first strike and pro red for 2UU (Homelands)
And it’s not even a Narwhal… it’s a “Whale”
Also, Slinn-Voda bounces it which is rude. Otherwise I’d sleeve it into Svyelun just for funsies…
Y’all, I met Blaze at the local Feeder’s and it was love at first skritch. I’ve not had a kitty of my own since my ex and I split, and I’ve always wanted an orange boy. An older gentleman who just wants quiet snugs according to his bio…. I put an adoption application in as soon as I was home 😍
Eustace agrees
Y’all, I “organized” my collection for the first time in 3 years, and by that I mean I separated precons into their sets, sorted rares out from uncommon/common, and finally got the 3 WIP decks pulled and set aside instead of randomly strewn throughout. Next Linden and Svyelun get re-sleeved.
So I’ve gotten to love on some amazing beans the last few weeks.
Apollo is the sweet 6 month old orange boy at The Man’s, Daisy’s my momma’s sweet old Lady, and Doc is the nervous himbo boi who I’ve taken in as mine.
The art on both of these prints is just freakin gorgeous
It’s my go to anytime someone doesn’t invite me somewhere or someone is sad about missing an event😂
I love Berta. This is now a Berta Stan page. Berta is gonna be gross with Mutagen Man and Lonis…
Am I a Simic Girlie now?
Oh yes they definitely have a spot in the 99. My concern with them at the helm is going too wide with the concept. My deck building style is very “expect the unexpected”. Tana/Jeska as Gruul Voltron, Linden for combat driven LG, Zurgo’s “but what if I didn’t sac the token” line… brain go burrr
So I’m thinking of some other shenanigans that could add some Food and/or Clue fun… Lonis seems like an excellent choice for Clues, The Goose Mother also could be fun, but tougher… Kraj has some interesting potential but not quite what I’m looking for. Or am I overthinking this…
Ok Y’all, I saw Mutagen Man and wanted to build around him immediately. He doesn’t quite fit in T/J but I’m in love with some Simic Token Shenanigans, and the obvious choice for commander would be Donny/Mike partnered… but this is me, and I still don’t like obvious. 1/2
But they were roommates!
It’s good to be an old face
My go to/pet deck. Many iterations over the years but current list (a more budget friendly version)

❤️❤️❤️ miss me? Of course you did. 😂
I’m a nerd from the past who’s reappearing from the big and trying to reconnect with old friends.
There’s never “too many” wings, friend.
As you should, I’m kind of a big deal.
I’ve definitely missed y’all, and I’m glad to be dipping my toes back in.
Hehehe. Jurassic Park Boyfriend T-Shirt, which is like extra nerdy lol (I picked up the first shirt I found this morning, it’s definitely his…)
Wow so I guess I’ve been gone so long that I left mid migration and never added most of the old MtG gang on here, so if you just got followed by me, it’s cause I’ve logged into this site like twice since everyone moved from the old hellsite…
Overall, I’m happy. I went back to Empire (the LGS that I frequented in the before times) Friday to pick up my Strixhaven pre-order (set aside before I was unemployed) and chatted with the gang just catching up. Also, meet Heimy, the man’s adorable blockhead of a mastiff
I spent the first 4 months after the move home recovering, and once I left the job that had been killing me for the last two years, things have been so much better. I’ve been in nature a lot, spent a lot of time with my nieces (K, the 4th grader, wants to learn Magic) and have been rebuilding.
I moved back home in January. I left my company in March. I’m currently in an incredibly healthy relationship (my therapist said so) with a polycule I adore (and have known for over a decade) and am strengthening myself and my relationships with others.
In Non-MtG news:
In the 4 years I’ve been gone, a lot has happened. I went from a secure polycule to divorced and single, loved an abuser, experienced homelessness, and had a long run of being That Bitch with my company (including running the location inside Mall of America)… but then…
Miss me?
