As I'm sure at least someone has noticed, my writing has stalled out. Much of this is due to stress from my day job. I got thrown a major project for a high profile client, and a lot of it has been learning one of our new products one step ahead of them. Lots of bumps in the road.

Reading @pugsteady.com 's newsletter today immediately brought back memories of "FOR THE RAT KING!" from a Pugmire game he ran several years ago at Midwinter Gaming Convention.

For years, I've looked for a live recording of Tori doing Take the Sky from the Scarlet's Walk tour, which included a bridge of I Feel the Earth Move by Carole King. It came up tonight while talking to a friend during a D&D game, and @robinarothman.bsky.social almost immediately pulled up a copy!

Finally got to play again at our home pod. Ended up going 3-0. Ygra, Eater of All: This deck is just dirty, especially for a Bracket 2. Namor: I offered the table the choice of Namor or Cap, and they picked Namor. Ooops--all counterspells.
The local theatre company in Sandy Springs is doing Les Mis. I really want to go see it, but I'm having a hard time justifying over $100/ticket to go see it. Which hurts, because Les Mis remains my favorite musical of all time.

I have come to embrace my enjoyment of being the threat in a commander pod and winning despite that. I also accept that people will ask me who hurt me based on some of the decks I play. For example, this is the newest deck I'm building right now: archidekt.com/decks/247450... #MTG #Commander

ADHD paralysis can be a PITA. This is the blackout shade I installed this morning in about 5m. It day in a corner of my bedroom for close to two years because I just couldn't find the time to install it. It immediately speed the temp in my bedroom 10+ degrees in the morning sun.
Sitting here fooling around with deck ideas for Pauper Commander after getting a Bone-Cairn Butcher in a pack yesterday. The first pass list I have looks like it would be a lot of fun to play. #Pauper #Commander #PauperEDH #MTG

Out at Atlanta Symphony Hall with @dmarie76.bsky.social to see Tori Amos. The last time I saw her in this venue was on the Under the Pink tour.
