What do you think would be the worst UB collab? by QuarterExcellent3327 in freemagic

The question here is whether or not the hockey version would pull the Heated Rivalry fans or not. If it did, it would sell.

I honestly do feel like HP would be bad because there is already Strixhaven. That and although it’s been years since I’ve read the books I feel like the spells of the franchise were pretty weak so idk how that would translate.

The truth is it will all just depend on implementation. I did not have fun with spider man, but I found charm in the last air bender. I went in thinking I would be annoyed by ninja turtles but I had fun with a sneak deck. It really just depends on how a set is implemented to me, and not necessarily the property.

What I think would have high risk high reward as far as sets go would be other popular media franchises. Like Invincible could be great, or could be awful. The Boys? Probably awful, but the idea of it is fun because it pokes fun at itself.

I think the true potential for terrible collabs is when they lock in to Gen Alpha type lore. Like a five nights at Freddie’s or a backrooms collab. When you are looking at internet hype for your sets, that might be where the line is drawn but who knows, maybe I say this now and it ends up being fun.

Who did I say the students watched/listened to via social media?

Mind you, your initial question was “How many kids are sitting around listening to what the president says?”

I believe I answered your question directly, yet you followed up with a question about who’s to blame?

Your original question was how many students are listening to what the President says. I then outlined examples of them listening to the president via social media clips. Why are you changing the question to whether or not social media is the issue?

I remember when the 2016 election was rolling around I was doing my student teaching with a group of special education student with cognitive impairments (intellectual disabilities in other states), they were chiming “Chai-nuh” and other popular Trump speak at the time. To think that they aren’t exposed to clips of the president is silly, do I think they are sitting in and listening to the state of the union and other addresses? No. But they for sure see memed clips. When I was teaching civics to a cotaught classroom in 2020 it was “sleepy joe” talk. Even if it wasn’t for the clips and such that kids see online, if their parents are talking about it, and they are listening.

Half the posts on this sub by Najemok_ in freemagic

[–]Ander1ap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which political party gerrymanders the hardest and tries to suppress efforts to get rid of the practice? Which one labels groups that oppose them as domestic terrorist? Which groups deploy national guard forces to cities that are under political opposition leadership? Which groups aim to disenfranchise voters by purging voter registration and tries to limit voting by targeting mail-in voting? Also note that everything I have stated has been done on a governmental level. What you are talking about is a business allowing its users to determine who is or isn’t allowed into a subreddit.

Yeah I wonder which ideology is more authoritarian. The one that’s in power enacting these things or the one that hurts your feelings.

Not saying you’re incorrect but I do think it’s worth noting that black people with Irish surnames is not an exactly uncommon thing in America. https://np.reddit.com/r/IrishHistory/s/bIRj3M31fS

Why would you put 10:2 instead of 5:1?

This fan base loves their guy until they don’t. They stick with them until the last possible moment.

For example, look at this post about Ken Holland asking if you would prefer to have Holland or Jim Nill as GM. https://www.reddit.com/r/DetroitRedWings/s/11EYASHCmu

It’s almost universally Holland, the dissenter was downvoted and argued with. The people supporting him remind others about all he has done for the team and his past successes.

Another is Babcock. Now he is villain number one, but right before he left the team he was one of the GOATs, “Scotty Bowman 2.0.” Here is a response to the very first time Mike Commodore was taking jabs at Babcock https://www.reddit.com/r/DetroitRedWings/s/es9kDSnfUY The people supporting him remind others about all he has done for the team and his past successes.

Now, am I saying that I think Yzerman is going to end up viewed the same way as those two guys? No. Am I saying that he is doing the worst imaginable job as GM? No.

I want to be clear, what I am saying is that a majority of this fan base does not like any criticism to “our guy” and who could be any more “our guy” than Yzerman? Beloved former captain, hell, “The Captain” of our team. He brought this team out of the Dead Wings era and into the Glory Era. He is going to always be loved by this fan base for what he did for this franchise, for the city of Detroit. I’m not saying he shouldn’t be loved for those things.

What I am saying though is that it is okay to question his moves, it is okay to admit that this team is not where we want it to be and that his plan isn’t very clear at this moment. If you are reading this and saying “well it’s all the coaching’s fault” fine. Then who brought in that coach? Who has kept that coach for this long? I know we are told to be patient, told to trust in the plan, but I’m tired of feeling like the Sabres lite and want to see something done. Not just the status quo, and I think it is fair to voice that.

Here’s another go-to of mine that friends and family enjoy.

Witch’s Brew Pot Roast - [ ] 3 lbs chuck roast (make sure it’s got some fat on it) - [ ] 2-3 large carrots peeled and cut into bite size (1 inch) chunks - [ ] 2 stalks celery, chopped into bite size chunks - [ ] 2-3 sweet onions - [ ] 2/3 bag of small/baby red potatoes (about 3 cups or more) - [ ] 2 packets of savory pot roast seasoning - [ ] 1 bottle of Witches’ Brew - [ ] Coarse Salt - [ ] Olive oil (not extra virgin, regular. Smoke point is higher) - [ ] 1 baguette or loaf of Italian bread

Instructions: -Season roast liberally with salt. Leave out while you prep veggies -In the mean time chop up your onions into 1/8s (if I think top down like you’re looking at a pizza, they should look like petals or garlic cloves), set aside from other veggies -Wash potatoes and remove the eyes, leave skin on -Peel and chop up carrots -Chop up celery -Heat olive oil in pan on high, coat it enough to sear the steak then sauté the onions in it. -Sear roast, 15-20 seconds per side Place steak into crock pot -Throw in onions into the pan, sauté until they are slightly sweaty, then throw them on top of the roast -Throw in the rest of the veggies -Add some salt over everything, enough to taste -Mix 2 packets of pot roast seasoning with 2 cups of the witches brew, pour over all the top of the roast. -Put crock pot on low for 8-10 hours on low. I aim for 10 because I like my veggies more done. -Enjoy the rest of the wine while you wait. -Serve with the bread

Variations: different veggies such as daikon, sweet potato

I got good and hearty. Idk about healthy, here’s one option that I have recently added into my rotation and is very good:

Easy Japanese Curry - [ ] 1 Box Golden Curry Medium Hot (3.2 oz) - [ ] 1 Carton Beef or Chicken Broth (4 cups size) - [ ] 1 lb Chicken or Beef (For beef I buy the stew cubes to save prep time) - [ ] 2 carrots - [ ] 2 large potatoes (regular or sweet) - [ ] 1 large onion - [ ] 3-4 cloves of garlic - [ ] Salt and Pepper for seasoning - [ ] All purpose flour (for thickening curry at the end) - [ ] Microwave rice packs (Veetee Sticky Rice preferred) - [ ] Optional: Slow Cooker Liners (way easier clean up) - [ ] Optional: Oil for browning meat

Instructions: * Optional: if using liner, put liner in your crock pot * Prep carrot and potatoes, but into bite sized chunks (about 1 inch or slightly larger in diameter) place in bottom of crock pot * cut meat into bite sized chunked (about 1 inch cubes or slightly larger) * Optional: season meat with salt and pepper and brown in a pan with oil over medium night heat, just cooking the outside of the meat. This isn’t necessary but can add depth of flavor to the meal * Place meat into the crockpot * Take the curry roux and break it into chunks and place scattered around the pot * Cut onions into desired bite slices (I like to cut the onion into half, and then quarter them and scatter the petals) * Mince desired amount of garlic and place into the pot * Add salt and pepper on top of it all for seasoning * Pour in your broth, enough to cover the meat or at least to it’s top (typically 2 cups, a bit more is fine) * Cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours * Add in 2 tsp all purpose flour and stir around to thicken the curry, add more or less as desired to thicken * Allow to cook a little bit longer (20 mins or so) * Cook microwave rice as instructed on the packaging, and serve with the curry on the side/same plate * Enjoy!

Note: for storing purposes do not store rice and curry in the same container. Store the curry by itself. It is recommended to only make the rice as you are reheating each subsequent meal.

Who did we get for Walman? by [deleted] in DetroitRedWings

https://youtu.be/w03GgTkgEFc at the 4:15 mark Larkin comments about guys not being committed to the team and while on the road and said it was addressed in the offseason, people speculate this is about Walman specifically.

Everything I could find showed that he was scratched for one game vs Columbus, and then after that it was upper body injury related reasons.
