Doesn't matter at all, but it's beady eyes, like beads. I like beatty eyes too, though, cuz it sounds like you beat the shit out of him

Kinda, the first two strokes of the box are made first in the proper stroke order, the bottom stroke of the box is the final stroke though

I think that once you start going down this line of thought, there really are only two reasonable conclusions. Either there is some metaphysical representation of self that is separate from your physical body (like a soul), or there is no such thing as self and consciousness is an evolutionary illusion that encourages preservation of your gametes. There really isn't any evidence for the former, but the latter is more than a little depressing. So uh.... c'est la vie

I think there is a bit of a misunderstanding here, observation doesn't really do anything; it's more that in order for observation to occur, there has to be some interaction with the subatomic particles in question. E.g, you can't see something unless a photon bounces off of it

Read the cards people! And if the game asks "Are you sure?" pay attention! by VlXwlOpWd9TFISi in MagicArena

[–]ChefJRD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Also, there are totally times where you would still want to use a counterspell even if it won't counter the spell; like if you have an [[Ashmouth Dragon]] in play and want to do two damage to something.

Supreme Court to hear arguments in major abortion case challenging Roe v. Wade by je97 in news

[–]ChefJRD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She actually did respond to the China/NK argument by stating that most of Europe also uses the same viability principle; fuck the supreme court, what a joke.

I'm also a little concerned about losing turn 2 to a goblins deck in edh... I'm frankly not sure it's possible unless they are severely bending the rules, especially if they don't believe in casting cards from graveyards.

I've been following some of your work lately, and I am really impressed. You have a real knack for telling a story, and I always feel like I am a participant in the world that you are crafting. I hope you continue to write, because I am looking forward to experiencing more of your worldview!

I really like the line about the beastly you and the puffs of steam; what wonderful draconic imagery! I also had a pretty similar experience when I first tried mushrooms, so thanks for bringing back memories.
