This one is a real thinker.

I tell myself it's normal to occasionally see some cool cards in Magic, think about using them, and quickly feel a deep shame.

These are amazing and I love them.

The drop biscuits have white chocolate chips, to resemble stormclouds with hail. More themed baking projects!--this time for a choir. I managed to spend 9 hours on this stuff and my legs are screaming.

Could a depressed person have made this?

Competitive Yugioh is too easy, so I improvised a biscuit recipe using blueberries as a natural dye but only if the dough's pH level is successfully recalibrated to a specific point.

+ ladyfingers with dark chocolate and a whipped strawberry mascarpone cream cheese, because I'm trying to be classy.

downloading grindr so i can claim this first

"Limited Pack GX: Ra Yellow" based on season 2 has just been announced, which after Slifer means in another 6 months we'll see an "Obelisk Blue" set based on season 3. Which means we'll probably get at least one new Crystal Beast card, to reach the TCG in Q1 2027! :')

hm

just a normal picture of the yugioh card cupsy yummy

Democrats had that supermajority for only 72 days. It was the most productive session of Congress in 20 years, they successfully steered the country out of an economic crash, and they passed the second biggest healthcare reform in history, coming just 1 vote short of achieving universal coverage.

This post neglects to acknowledge that FDR had Dem supermajorities in Congress & got to appoint 8 SCOTUS judges.

Today's Dems aren't less productive because they don't care. It's because we gave them only a brief, razor-thin majority vs a far-right SCOTUS then took a hard pivot back to fascism.

The Nanoblocks are adorable, but Yugi falls apart every time I touch him, and Kaiba's duel disk is obstructed behind his arm. I've been deviating from the instructions to fix them.

Sorry I've gone off the grid lately. Chronic depression is rough. I'm making the effort to get that fixed.

In the meantime, check this out! Too many great Yu-Gi-Oh products this year, so I used my manly man arms to haul a fresh bookcase upstairs. The shelves are already full (of possibilities).

If it's within your budget and you'd enjoy being there. (Note that American YCSes don't hold any tournaments on the Friday.)

That's exciting! Friday check-in isn't actually necessary--you can email saying you can't make it. You won't get one of those YCS coins though.

Try to practice early and not be cramming. Sleep. Eat clean. Make friends. Make a checklist, but don't bring more than what you need to the venue.

At long last, 22.0.0, the greatest Nintendo Switch update, has dropped:

"When Airplane Mode is activated, the previously set preferences for Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or NFC ... will be saved and applied.
Added the ability to individually enable or disable ... from the Quick Settings."

MUCH APPRECIATED.

This laptop is telling me to make an account so I can update some drivers. It is time to delete this laptop.

Pokemon's greatest masterpiece was released in America on this day... I'm gonna say, ten years ago?

Did you whip put Tengu Format at your wedding!? Good taste.

can you even imagine spending dozens of hours of your life programming a dueling ai script so players can have something interactive to test against, then at the end of all of that you add maxx c to the deck

My experience at Yu-Gi-Oh's 300th YCS in Richmond YouTube video by MarkThePage

It's finally up--my vlog from Yu-Gi-Oh's 300th YCS in Richmond. An exhausting week of highs and lows, and new ways to enjoy this great game. It's given me a lot to think about.

Well I think now you have to do Googly-Eyes Drum Dragon.

I apologize for how long it's taking to finish the YCS Richmond vlog! It's my biggest tournament vlog so far. Lots to juggle narratively that I'm trying to get just right.

reserving a special place in the shadow realm for the legions of online yugioh players who could be using any deck in the game, yet choose to play stall/burn

Every time I post a Mimighoul video, I lose another bunch of subscribers--more than when I post silly Nintendo stuff that has *nothing* to do with Yugioh. Y'all are weird.

For like two years everything was just some mess of floodgates, Scythe locks, and Halq combos...

I'm ready for a new ban list. I'm ready for a format in which the majority of my matches are not against Radiant Typhoon.

Regional tomorrow, after last week's championship. Am I tired? Yes. Am I busy and injured? Yes. But I also just spent $200 on Yugioh cards for a video so I should try to get more use out of them.

what a missed opportunity
