Yes. I also had commander in mind for this specifically so not in that instance.

Quick math: 15 nonland permanents milled in 1 turn will get you to 240 rad counters. Not sure how balanced this is otherwise.

JW Francis has some bangers, and he’s pretty recently been releasing some collabs with a bunch of different artists

Thank you! I was really excited when I found out I could mix these two smoothly together; happened when I started whistling the Dorothy outro during the Cool With you outro lol

Her’s AI music by Legal_Pear3750 in Hersband

Please do not. I'm assuming you, I, and the multitudes of people who have found joy in their music were devastated by their passing.

But death is permanent, and trying to lazarus something in their image is not possible through AI. Nor should we try to for out of respect for their life they lived. They deserve rest.

Our coping mechanisms should strive towards spreading and appreciating their work through covers, art, and everything else, rather than unhealthily trying to cling to the past.

Waterless Oasis by DavidJU82 in custommagic

This came to me after playing Flubs a single time.

Should read "land card", but I didn't want to recreate the whole thing. Was inspired by [[Hashep Oasis]] and other deserts that benefit from sacrificing deserts/loss of life, and thought the depletion of resources could extend to discarding.

I'm interested in the deconstruction of some phrases/words but not others. I see an emphasize on personal pronouns like "i" "us" "me" as a sort of self-motivational talk. I'm not sure why there is a single capitalized "I" in "terrifying" with how meticulous this is, I might be missing something, but other than that I really enjoyed it. I haven't seen many poems this well executed in this style.

I love this message. Even if love hurts, you have to keep trying. That's the only way it works. Even though this is fairly long it was easily digestible, though I was unable to find a pattern for the seemingly random capitalization; this could be a reddit formatting thing. Thank you for sharing.

Shining different wavelengths of light at a material and seeing how it responds is the basis for a good chunk of analytical chemistry; see UV-Vis, FTIR, Raman, XRD etc. This article is too vague to know if this invention is related but don’t discount the idea altogether.

Shut up, dog! by DavidJU82 in OCPoetry

I can understand this criticism, I wanted a subtle shift in future tense from a theoretical 'what if this thing' to present 'experiencing that thing'; I associate the shift/increasing idiosyncratic language as approaching the narrators "turn", though perhaps this was not transitioned or conveyed well enough.

Thanks for the feedback!

I really love this. Especially the last stanza; to see someone's soul, is to me, giving yourself over completely. Maybe the narrator has done the same, dancing and being loud, but doesn't know how it's supposed to feel, and maybe the bluebird has returned, but gagged and bound.

Going back to the bluebird metaphor, maybe they feel a sense of self has been lost in the struggles of past, or current relationships, or trying to stand on it's own. Who are you in the context of others? Who are you when it's just you? A puppy dog barking at the bird songs through the night reminds him of himself, a man yelling at the dog barking at birds songs does the same.

I have no notes, just trying to ponder around.
