Sometimes when I need to laugh, I think about the time my cousin’s son took over a group rendition of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star to sing the Imperial March

one of the nicest things you can do for someone, i think, is let them get unapologetically excited about something they're passionate about, ask them engaging questions, show them that you're listening, and let them go on for as long as they want
Posted on r/MagicArena: What is the little crown icon with the number 3 on the pteramander?
Behold the terror of the cosmic horror Marit Lage, destined to be undone by Reflector Mages and Man-o-Wars

We had a NES, my parents bought it when my mom's work sponsored a US trip for them. IDK what the price was. Problematic lang was that NES games were harder and more expensive to buy locally, and all your friends had Famicoms so mahirap ang gamesharing. Yung mga bootleg collections pati na "1000 in 1" etc available only as Famicom cartridges. Luckily, nagkaron ng binebenta na "Honeybee" adapter that let you use Famicom cartridges in a NES. I played a lot of the NES classics, all the legit Marios (there some random BS bootleg "Super Mario 4" that sometimes appeared), Castlevanias, Legend of Zelda (I had to borrow a NES original for this one, mahirap maghanap ng original Famicom cartridge kasi the cart needed its own battery for saving), Contra 1 and 2, Adventure Island etc etc. Kahit yung mga small games na nasa mga 16-in-1/100-in-1/etc like Popeye, Baseball, etc naging expert din ako lol. Pag bata ka madami kang time e
Safety valve to prevent you from looping this forever with a second Reap the Past in the GY
I seeeee. Thanks. It's weird because the crown icon wasn't in the help popup when I hover over the creature

post: We should justify efforts to improve internal quality of software based on its ability to reduce costs of future enhancements. It's a counter-intuitive view, but one that reflects our reality

@MTGGoldfish @EvenMAmundsen ... I need to dig out my old Mons Goblin Raiders to use as tokens
It's great when I'm like "I'll try a few more games of magic arena before going to bed, surely I can get back to Diamond 1 quickly" and the shuffler decides to smite me for my insolence
I envy people who, lying in bed at 3am, are able to avoid thinking about a work problem that they had all day. i need that level of compartmentalization
apparently, my brain can only be satisfied by me getting up and typing out my thoughts and sending them out lol

I have two methods for estimating project size:
(a) break things down into subprojects, estimate them, add it up
(b) gut feeling estimate based on how nervous i feel about unexpected risks
So far (b) is vastly more accurate for any project more than a few weeks
Now I kinda wanna know how kraven would hunt the hulk
Quoted Dylan_Macri's tweet:Kraven: Yes, the Spider-Man. The ultimate prey!
Ana: What about the Hulk?
Kraven: Fuuuuuck that!

@webdevMason Too busy for this, though it sounds interesting. What kind of things were discussed the last time you did this?
I feel like the world was robbed because we don't have Ben Wyatt's reaction to the GoT final season
Quoted rachmeetsworld's tweet:Ben Wyatt is the prince that was promised
WTH facebook
Really need to get better at not only recognizing when I'm on tilt (I'm pretty decent at that), but also stepping back and taking a breather when I do realize it
Ugh. Google requires Android apps to have 64 bit variants by Aug 1, but I'm out of the country for 5 weeks between then and now and a React Native app requires upgrading to RN 0.59 to do this, wc is nontrivial. Mobile app devt is so annoying
The climb from MTG Arena Diamond 2 to Mythic is so bloody grindy
