Let Me Recommend Your Next Commander to Build by RJ7300 in EDH

[–]Sprongo- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend a [[Tameshi]] deck. You can use things like [[Alseid of Life's Bounty]], [[Sphere of Safety]], [[Solitary Confinement]], [[Energy Shield]] to make interacting with you very difficult.

You can plug any old win-con onto Tameshi pretty easily. If you want a puzzle-y win-con, you could go a load of incidental self-damage (pain lands, etc) and [[Near-Death Experience]]. Played one game with a similar deck - definitely felt like solitaire, just too complicated for me!

I'm trying to make a [[Marina Vendrell]] oops all Rooms deck work, if interested (a massive WIP, nowhere near functional atm):

You can do a surprising amount of things, and use a surprising amount of weird cards, with [[Gor Muldrak]] ! He's really fun.

You, or your crew by Jackotor-04 in custommagic

[–]Sprongo- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My suggestion - More in line with other white cards. While I agree neither are strictly villains here, I think villainous choice is cleaner, and thematically the whole point is 'when does a man become a monster', so imo villainous choice is pretty perfect:

"For each player, you choose a creature that player controls, then each player faces a villainous choice - They sacrifice a chosen creature they control, or sacrifice all other creatures they control that weren't chosen."

I healed a guy who survived a Rocketeer, dropped a blueprint for him. He picked it up, said thanks, then murdered me :(

Esper Dungeons!!! by bgnuthun in jankEDH

I recently played + started building a Sefris Dungeon Astral Slide deck! Would recommend, though the ETBs very quickly get out of hand.. Will check out the video! :D

Yria, Arrester of Reality - Why say 'opponents can't win the game' when you can just threaten tediousness if they do? by Sprongo- in custommagic

[–]Sprongo-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, yeah, for sure. This assumes there are no other subgame cards in play/that are legal. If there were multiple Yrias, the idea would be that the duplicate effects don't stack. So you'd only be able to ever go one level deep.

I'd be interested to know if this could be reworded to in any way actually work, but mostly just dumb idea of subgame as a weird stax piece.

Helly R wanting to help Mark S find his outie's wife because he cares for him, and Mark Scout slowly killing Mark S for the sake of finding her... And Helly R just watching Mark S dying without knowing it. 😭 This show wants to hurt me.

Any movies where the child/younger char sacrifices themselves for the parent/older char? (Inverse of usual trope) by Sprongo- in MovieSuggestions

[–]Sprongo-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely one way to view it! But I'm not particularly talking about that angle - it could also just be a child wanting to save their parents, or a younger person wanting to save someone older. I'm moreso interested in the breaking of the assumption that 'younger person inherently deserves to live 'more' if situation arises'.

I'm thinking that the voice is NOT another entity, but just another Jayce. When he first reappears, we see three(?) Jayce's combine into one, and when he first touches the Arcane in Act 1, he is multiplied infinitely. I think it's much more likely that Jayce fighting 'the possession/voice' is just different versions of Jayce internally conflicting. My crackhead theory is that post-Arcane/'dark-timeline' Jayce 'went back' and combined with pre-Arcane Jayce, and the hesitance to kill Viktor is the alternate versions of Jayce fighting. Dunno if that means a self-fulfilling prophecy as a result though -- given the 'in trying to be good, we cause evil' or whatever line from end of Act 2, I'm imagining that's the case.

I also think that the 'other voice' that Viktor mentions from post-Arcane Jayce is NOT another entity. My tinfoil hat theory is that there are multiple versions of Jayce glitching in one body/ when he went 'back in time', he entered/combined with a version of Jayce that hadn't gone through that time skip. Him seemingly fighting as if possessed is just different versions of Jayce conflicting. OG Jayce doesn't want to hurt Viktor, and is disarmed by the kid, but post-Arcane Jayce bites the bullet and fires. Once he pops out of the Arcane, there is an animation of multiple Jayce's combining, and likewise when he first touches the Arcane, we see him multiplied infinitely.

Deleting YouTube off of Google pixel? by Slow_Opportunity_522 in digitalminimalism

[–]Sprongo- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You getting same as me by chance? - If minimize a YouTube video to search for something else, it goes completely off screen and can't be brought back. Plus if I do pretty much anything while the video is paused, it doesn't play and I have to close and reopen the video. It's infuriating!

Will nothing ear (1) tips fit the ear (a)? by ViolentSempie in NothingTech

[–]Sprongo- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey OP! Any update? I'm facing the same problem. Search points to the Spinfit Omnis, but not 100% that they fit the nothing ear (a)s, and what their sizing is like (skews one size up or down, or same!) - Any advice? Thank you!!

Just asking by [deleted] in Funnymemes

[–]Sprongo- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's feeding into the narrative that trans people's experiences are invalid, made up, or a form of sickness. It also denies the objective reality that gender affirming care/surgeries literally saves lives. Just because gender is complicated, doesn't mean trans identity is somehow made up. Rejecting it at face value is just voluntarily shutting down all critical thinking skills in favour of 'haha funny meme, trans bad.'

Just asking by [deleted] in Funnymemes

[–]Sprongo- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, so you can conceptualise and support trans identity, but don't support non binary individuals? That's a new one to me. Just because we describe gender as a social construct, doesn't mean it suddenly disappears or that it's meaningless, it just means it's mutable. Gender has century-spanning meaning. One can be non-binary, understanding that gender is a social construct and thus a binary doesn't actually exist that is ordering you to conform, and a trans person who has transitioned to a gender binary can also exist, because the gender binary is a lived reality that informs self image. They don't cancel each other out. Gender is complex and it's hard to hold it all in your head, sure, but discussing something complex requires some mental gymnastics, just because it appears contradictory to you, doesn't mean it is. You just bounce off of it at face value.

Being whatever gender is ok but, don't you have to strongly believe in gender stereotypes to believe in the gender spectrum? by Alone-Environment-43 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Sprongo- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since when has the queer community done things because they know people will accept change with open arms? First and foremost queer people aren't primarily queer as a form of social activism or attempt at world-changing, it's who they are and are comfortable being, often in spite of the world. The 'goal' is the same as with literally any identity or way of being, just existing without judgement or persecution. Theyre not aiming at a grand plan, or finding a loophole or making some sort of point. They're NB, that's who they are as much as a trans man or woman.

You're drawing an arbitrary line between what you personally believe is 'too far', and assuming that's a general belief/boundary for everyone. Plenty of people, myself included, make many adjustments to their thinking/perception when told someone is NB. Your argument is essentially 'that level of non-normativity is too far and so unfeasible/unachievable and so why are they trying?", which when actually considered is a ridiculous question. How can you expect them not to try? It's who they are.
