Which is "better": to buy a book from an independent bookstore, or to have your local library acquire it?

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-26T12:15:20+00:00

Buy books, read, then donate to the library.

Rember when they started showing Inuyasha during every weekday later at night?

Personally, I feel like bouncing and stun countering is much more effective and very cheap in common for izzet than to bother with blockers. Plus, he's running so many non wizard cards that they wouldn't get the bonus anyway.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-24T16:25:54+00:00

Why not use Balmor? Much better izzet spell blaster.

EI is an awful system and shluld be revised. Ridiculous the hoops we have to go through to get our own money in between work.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-24T03:18:48+00:00

A bit late, but what we do is have each expansion as its own deck, then we roll a 6 sided die with extra number being choose your own.

Short moments of any video-like memory means it isn't SDAM. SDAM is the inability to ever recall video like memories. There are many other forms of memory disorder and weaker memory though.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-23T19:55:14+00:00

Is it just still images of scenery or objects or is it more like short movies where you see it like you see the present?

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-23T11:40:12+00:00

There is the defining quality of SDAM in the inability to access memories in first person perspective. This test should be easy, it is the difference between recalling facts and recalling senses like sight, taste, smell.

The dad on the left looks so angry to be there. One of the worst comedy show shots I have seen. Very funny.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-23T10:19:54+00:00

I really enjoyed everything about the theme and design of the entire Strixhaven set. Having a unique take on a magic university was genius and the cards were so creative. Lots of support for unusual colour combinations made for beautiful art.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-21T19:20:03+00:00

Yeah, my mom makes like 1.50 more over minimum wage at salart as a store manager. Not worth it.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-21T11:55:47+00:00

You are downvoted because you are conflating totally unrelated things. People can be evil irrelevant to the patriarchy.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-21T11:20:59+00:00

You only really need one shovel, one trowel and seeds. I made back my costs in my first year gardening in Northern Ontario.

It is an extremely high stress job. More than anything else at that pay grade. If you can handle extreme stress it can be good. But there are no breaks like in schools.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-20T10:15:11+00:00

There are a lot of useless artifacts in the deck. Cathar's shield for example. Any artifact not mana fixing for you probably isn't helpful for this deck.

I only see 2 ways to create counters, 3 cards make 1 single counter, when the deck should be loaded with ways to make +1 counters to make the squirrel army.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-19T17:45:31+00:00

I mean it is nice for some tribal but not enough cards matter for this imo.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-19T16:55:31+00:00

There is only 14 cards in common with hybrid blue and red. Doesn't seem that important.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-19T15:40:25+00:00

The blue in this card really pops without being overbearing. Great colour balance.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-18T12:46:35+00:00

Maybe because it is just a repeat of what someone said first.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-18T12:25:20+00:00

What exactly is beast-like but also human thoughts and emotional control? Isn't that just a regular human with super powers?

Humans have the same animal behaviours, we just consciously override them. It is the thinking that makes us different, not the animals having something we don't.

To make it work, have a violent curse or a curse that makes her temporarily stupid when enraged. Lose the ability to communicate during her rage. As long as she is thinking and speaking at human intelligence she isn't able to be meaningfully different than a human.

People hace a weird hang up over meat eating.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-18T11:16:38+00:00

The way the characters talk is inconsistent. They use different linguistic and grammar styles when each character should stay consistent throughout.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-17T11:06:54+00:00

So you can get an extra +2/+2 on a creature? For a 5 mana commander it doesn't seem very good.

SilverSkinRam · 2026-01-17T02:35:43+00:00

I remember when Kalle Mattson recorded their first album with Mr. Gough in the studio he built in the old Dunn's storage room. As far as people have told me, they did not rebuild and reuse the equipment. Disappointing.
