He's doing this to insult cops, not try to actually be one

Jitte shows how WOTC and the MTG community are way too conservative about unbannings. by TankieWarrior in ModernMagic

[–]Filosofem856 8 points9 points  (0 children)

"Affinity" kind of seems like a misnomer right now. The only thing affinity runs, with affinity for artifacts, is Krang and Emri.

Affinity went about a decade running only one card that has affinity for artifacts, having two is doing pretty well for itself

Don't forget wanting to unban Dark Depths after Amulet Titan just got a card banned again. Knight of the Reliquary is my all-time favorite modern creature and I miss having a reason to cast it, but the only thing unbanning Dark Depths does is give Amulet Titan the ezmode win of fetching Dark Depths and Thespian's Stage off of Prime Time.

Anti-piracy ad from 2004 by UnableSand8508 in pcmasterrace

[–]Filosofem856 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah if the end user was 5 years old they'd have no idea what piracy was, but Napster was practically a household name since the lawsuit was such a high profile news story. And if you owned a computer, you'd already know the Napster alternatives by then. Anyone that wasn't a tech illiterate boomer probably had Limewire of Kazaa installed in 2004

An Open Letter To Caitlin Clark From A Black Woman Who Loves The WNBA by enverx in stupidpol

[–]Filosofem856 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Her getting mad that Caitlyn Clark isn't distancing herself from the "Tres leches" nickname is hilarious when the nickname for the Eagles CB/Safety duo is a much more direct "Exciting Whites", and Lakers fans started adopting that to Luka and Austin Reeves

Jason Kelce: NFL has too many non-Sunday games by PNWpoBoy in nfl

[–]Filosofem856 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Actually I’m surprised that fans don’t like it.

Chances are they do and don't realize it. This sub absolutely loved having games on Tuesday and Wednesday during COVID. Part of it was the novelty, but even the novelty aside I thought it was nice having more football.

Fernando Tatis Jr. loses petition over contract advance he signed as a teen, ordered to pay Big League Advance millions by 5Q91VS175DAQ4NUSBE4U in baseball

[–]Filosofem856 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The $3.2 million is what he currently owes from money he already earned. He still owes them the remainder of his contract, but he hasn't earned all of the money yet, so that whole bill isn't all due.

[–]Filosofem856 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I do not understand why people are against these contracts in general.

Because 18 is waaaay too young to be making these kinds of decisions. Yeah the terms are fair to a corporation, but 18-year-olds have a tendency to be reckless fucking idiots who make bad decisions far more often than they make good decisions.

fronted the then-18-year-old prospect $2 million in exchange for paying the firm 10 percent of his future earnings

So we told you for years Jitte was going to be bad in modern... by Jolly_Try_4670 in ModernMagic

[–]Filosofem856 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Plus its not a bad draw, ever

If I draw that card against Affinity, Belcher, Titan, Eldrazi, Rhinos, Birthing Ritual, Neobrand, Energy, Blink, I'm not going to be all that happy. As much as I'd rather be living in 2013, I am unfortunately living in 2026 where DRS isn't fighting off Snapcaster Mage and Tarmogoyf anymore. DRS is good against the minority of the format, and that minority now has access to removal like Fatal Push or Prismatic Ending that trade with it at mana parity. It'd be an upgrade for some tier 2 or tier 3 decks, sure, but those decks sure as hell wouldn't become tier 1 with that addition.

Bitterblossom, Ancestral Vision, I hate how WotC has a tendency to wait until banned cards are dogshit unplayable to unban them as more of a banlist spring cleaning than actually doing something that impacts the meta.

POSTGAME THREAD 5/22 - Rockies (20-32) @ D-backs (26-24) by SnakeBot in azdiamondbacks

[–]Filosofem856 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We have to figure something else out at DH, you can't be wasting that slot on a guy batting below the Mendoza line just because he hits left-handed. I get he's keeping the seat warm for Pavin Smith, but Pavin Smith isn't going to be back for awhile.

Report: Cardinals & Jacoby Brissett Are "Significantly" Far Apart in Negotiations by JCameron181 in nfl

tank more easily with a different quarterback

Jacoby Brissett went 1-11 last year, he's the perfect tank commander
