I clean my Bird of Prey’s litter box…FOR THE GLORY OF THE EMPIRE!

You guys sound welcoming, but how do you deal with the net deck mothef…er…person? When I tried playing Commander, every time somebody used tutors of some kind to pull something that either gave them unbeatable attack power or rendered them and/or their creatures impossible to damage or unblockable.

I appreciate your input, but again, I hate having 100 different cards. I want the old 4 card max 40-80 card decks and no commander. I also don’t want to be going up against meta-saavy players who bring in broken card card combos that I’ll lose to by turn 2.

Of course, I also miss banding as a mechanic, so I know I’m in an extreme minority.

To start, raise the income tax rates for corporations and high earners in the USA back to the levels before Reagan.

Eliminate the veto powers afforded certain countries in the UN.

Remove the bs cultural stigma against socialism in some countries.

Enforce international law and prosecute crimes against humanity.

Aw, geez…

When I came back to the game later in life–I initially played just before Ice Age came out–I was irritated by the changes and restrictions on format. I miss kitchen table shuffle and play situations with a far smaller pool of simpler cards.

Screw meta. I want to play a crazy theme deck that may or may not work how i intend. I want to play whatever I want, and, no, I didn’t want to play freakin’ Commander.

In other news, you kids need to get off my lawn.

Crap. Am I just an alt? I have all these memories of an actual life outside of Lemmy…

Player two is the client with the controller, right?

When Kamala first started, I had hope there would be change. How foolish that turned out to be…

The way things work in the US, the politicians are always campaigning. I’m sure there are those who can explain why much better than I can, but I think it boils down to the influence of money in our system and the need to constantly fundraise to win.

I hate that my country has become an obstacle to sovereign nations having the freedom to defend themselves as they choose and as they need. I think with the way the United States is going, other countries are going to need to move away from using anything American, just for the sake of security and independence. How many times has Ukraine needed American permission to use a weapon? Does anybody have a really independent military industry other than France?

Yeah, it’s that propaganda and the world view it propagates leads to all these military interventions that have gone so well for everyone. It’s also telling that interventions only occur when it’s in the interest of the intervening nation, and any perceived positives for the recipients are dubious, at best. Times when the international community needs to do something, like in cases of genocide, don’t seem to be important enough to warrant much of a response except for hand-wringing and virtue signaling in the aftermath.

This is going to lead to nuclear proliferation, I believe. Few, if any, countries can match the US military machine, so the only way to deter it Is to invest in a weapon that even the United States cannot defend against.

There might be other ways that nations might collectively deter an aggressive United States, but this is the only way I can see many isolated nations being able to defend themselves.

I think we can already see many so-called rogue nations following this path and trying to acquire atomic weapons. This will just make it worse.

I could be wrong. I hope I’m wrong. I don’t think I am, though.

Do countries and companies still license products for local manufacture? I mean, obviously in this case you’ll want the investment, but I remember situations in the early twentieth century where companies sold the plans and the right for militaries in other nations to make weapons in themselves.

I hope this isn’t a dumb question. If so, I apologize for my ignorance.

This has “imsorryjon” vibes.

Yeah. We saw what happened with Charlie Kirk. Killing these people creates a new idol for their followers to worship.

The bard is a hick who wears overalls, is named Beauregard (“Beau” to his friends), and charms the underpants off of various people and creatures of all kinds with his unassuming and innocent, natural “aw shucks” charm.

Secretly, he’s a perv from a big city putting on an act.

Upon failing to become fabulously wealthy, I can only assume this one of those “the riches are the friends we gained along the way” things.

Damn it to hell. I don’t need friends. I need dolla, dolla bills y’all.

Three O’Clock High

Awarding him the Peace Prize for what exactly? Can they even articulate a reason?
