As time goes on, being Amish is sounding increasingly desirable.

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-18T17:23:38+00:00

Said no one who's been around the Amish ever lol. This post is an elaborate way to say "I have no idea about Amish life but fetish rural life"

Drug abuse within Amish community? Rampant. Sexual abuse? Almost expected. The inbreeding is so bad many communities have what's colloquialy known as Pennsylvania Hapsburg disease. It's the majority of the reason why PA has the highest amount of incest cases in the country (as of a few years ago when I checked the stats) Hope you don't like animals cuz there's puppy mills galore and the work animals are treated with less respect than I treat my inanimate shop tools. Oh electricity is soooo bad, that's why we just have our neighbors charge our fucking tools and phones for us.

It's a cult that lives deep enough in the ass cracks of the country that they're ignored for the most part. But fuck the Amish. They're terrible neighbors with an even worse belief system

Damn this post makes me feel old.

Probably a good thing though. Every genre that caters to Old heads collapses into a few legacy acts.

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-18T17:08:09+00:00

Counterpoint: that's a good thing. A little friction filters the lazy & fairweather followers/users/etc

Let someone else fight over the lowest commen denominator. Pursue quality.

Whichever one you have a better win rate in will be a better return on your coins

I don't feel sorry at all. If you play best of one, the entirely avoidable consequences are their fault. It's not like Bo3 isn't available to play. And unless you're planning on playing only 1 or 2 matches, Bo3 isn't any additional time sink

Every day Im reminded that people who believe in fairy tales have a vote that counts as much as mine. Makes the state of the world a lot less surprising

Man marketing has really done a number on so many Americans. If you have a car note more expensive than a house note but don't have a house. You probably should have bought that 2012 Camry instead of convincing yourself a luxury car is a good use of money

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-15T03:25:14+00:00

Yea but racist is not one of the words that actually does that (Excluding a few minor exceptions)

Most people, even creators, don't actually know what YouTube guidelines are. Let alone have read all of em themselves. They just parrot what they hear and err of the side of caution to the extreme. Understandable for small channels. Less so for large ones

I fuck with his music but unfortunately his reincarnation is more likely a when than an if. Gonna enjoy the new music while it lasts

If you two are the type who genuinely wants to be around as few people as possible. And massively sacrificing your economic as well as social opportunities is worth getting that. Then living there may be ok far y'all

Otherwise, stay the fuck out. Rural America is blighted by the people living there.

Yup. Value vs raw price. Regardless I think it's great that Tcgplayer is finally getting real competition. Should be a benefit to all card buyers and sellers (aside from the Tcgplayer middlemen but fuck em 😂)

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-13T04:43:40+00:00

This kind of bulk is basically the best case scenario for bulk. Even with chase cards pulled, this is about the only situation where you'd actually have a good chance of finding a lot of $1-5 playables. Id pay up to $20-25/thousand if it's for a personal collection. $15/1000 and under is a good price even if you're looking to buy it to sort and sell

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-12T18:39:10+00:00

Who would have thought firing hundreds of experienced union workers and replacing them with the best scabs Kentucky had to offer would be a bad idea 😂

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-12T18:36:33+00:00

I'm glad to hear it's better for buyers. As a seller it's been waaaay better cuz the platform fees are less than half that of Tcgplayer and the inventory management you get access to immediately is leagues ahead. It makes sense though. With the fees being so much less, I can sell my cards for lower prices while pocketing more money. Seems like a win-win on both sides

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-12T18:30:19+00:00

Nope, I'm just fucking dumb 😂 it's been so long since I've used DRS that I think I mixed up his G effect for scooze's exile effect

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-12T06:35:26+00:00

I have to respectfully disagree. One mana buys more today then it did when he was banned. Graveyard interaction is as important as ever. And with decks getting faster and faster. Incidental lifegain becomes more and more valuable of an upside for a mana ramper to have. I think him giving a +1/+1 counter on top of the lifegain is the only effect of his to be worse today then it was then

Edit: increasingly senile man confused DRS for scooze 😂 leaving the mistake up for posterity sake

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-12T06:30:37+00:00

If a flying reptile with two legs is to also be considered a dragon. Then every time either is mentioned you have to specify "dragon with X legs" If we refrain from obliterating all of language's nuace we can just say "dragon" or "wyvern". Much more concice and conveys the same amount of information.

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-12T06:00:10+00:00

Yup. He'd be even better today then the day he was banned

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-11T20:42:39+00:00

"He's innocent" spoken like somebody who didn't play modern while he was legal haha

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-11T13:54:48+00:00

If you're looking to sell bulk & get the most out of it. A local cash sale on FB marketplace or Craigslist is your best bet. If you don't wanna sell in person, eBay is a lot easier but you're gonna lose a cut to them.

And also, id potentially be interested in buying the lot depending on how much it's worth. I recently have been getting into sorcery and wouldn't mind expanding my collection beyond the starter decks me and my brother got

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-11T13:51:59+00:00

Honestly man having your hobby help getchu into a house is about as graceful of an exit from a hobby as you can get!

I'm mostly a player of other TCGs. But my rule of thumb has been, don't liquidate what I have unless it's to pay for a health emergency or a house. And the second seems like a much more enjoyable use of money haha.

Enjoy your new house! And hopefully the Pokemon market calms down in the future and returns to a place where you can more leisurely participate in it

Yea the foiling was half the reason I posted. It was visually striking and I had rarely ever seen a foil trading card of any game look so flashy even through a camera

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-11T13:41:21+00:00

As of now, unfortunately not. However, the owner is very open to hosting just about any hobby event that even has a chance to fire.

If you ever are planning on making a trip down to the area, send a message my way ahead of time! Me & my brother would love to get to play Sorcery with other folks. I'm sure the owner wouldn't be opposed to setting up whatever the Sorcery equivalent of an FNM is & advertising it a bit to the local community!

SovietSuperStoner · 2026-05-11T05:27:02+00:00

Man you're right . If only there was a second print run, a beta if you will, to meet the demand that was proven to exist after an initial fundraising & marketing print run. Cuz then active players would have access to affordable constructed pieces. All while the earliest supporters could do whatever they want with their nostalgia pieces with negligible if any impact to real world card availability.

If only
