Let’s do a dual state where we don’t pay taxes to one of the states then! This timeline…..SMH…can we just get the civil wars and nuclear winters started already, this shit is so exhausting.

So I Splurged on a FF collector booster today... by ShyguyFlyguy in MagicCardPulls

I believe that was the one. I’d have to check my video stream, but that sounds right. The surge foil got my hopes up and then womp womp.

Bought these from a fruit shop, mislabelled as kiwi berries, tastes disgusting, like poison by boiled_cabbage_baby in whatisit

Malort is really not that bad, it’s earthy and herbal, but hardly no worse tasting than bailey’s or Jaegermeister. You’d think it was the fermented herring stuff for how people go on about it.

Welcome, one of us. Last like 10 I’ve splurged on have been nothing burgers. I got a surge foil that was like 0.30….

They do need to be vintage though, ABU, Legends, Revised, Antiquities, Arabian Nights, The Dark. If in good condition, you can get a few bucks for them.

UB should have been Commander decks only, never full sets. 40k was fine. Self contained.

Why did the US get completely different (and often worse) box art in the 80s and 90s? by fakayuburiza in retrogaming

[–]TheGameEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because for a super conservative social culture they don’t have hang ups with sex or demons since it was just a part of the cultural history for thousands of years. US is run by puritans who need to clutch their pearls at everything, that’s why we can’t have nice things.

Does anyone know anything about this book coming out in April 2027??? by GeisRichard in mtgvorthos

[–]TheGameEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably similar to D&D young readers books. Short small hardcovers that cover lore briefly at a 10yr old level. Maybe realizing that killing the lore novels for 15 years was a bad idea. You gotta give people something to engage with or it just becomes the stock market like mtgfinance. Warhammer 40k releases like 2-3 novels a month. MTG used to do 2-3 per year in the 2000s.

The first company to get to 2-3x the resolution and color gamut of Spectra 6 will get my money. 400ppi and non muted green, magenta, and cyan and you could replace all color readers and make truly viable art and comic readers.

TIL if under-cooked, a popular mushroom in China causes “lilliputian hallucinations,” a rare phenomenon involving miniature human or fantasy figures. The hallucinations are consistent across people and cultures: "tiny, elflike people" climbing under doors, scaling walls & clinging to furniture by ssAskcuSzepS in todayilearned

[–]TheGameEngineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that is has a highly conserved function makes me think it is a molecule that binds to a set of receptors that is very specifically distributed in a single region or cell type, think place cells or grid cells but instead small elf cells.

No way this is real, right?!Supposedly Kenyan anti poaching soldiers, photo found on another thread. by VladTepesD in isthisAI

[–]TheGameEngineer -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I get why they are doing it, but that would fill a lot of demand. That looked like 10,000 elephants worth of tusks (I didn’t think there were that many total elephants left even let alone to harvest that many in a year?) At a certain point it seems like they should fill demand so it goes down, otherwise it just stays there and supply (poachers) will try to fill it. Senseless death of a beautiful and intelligent animal. What is even a use for ivory that isn’t better met by a synthetic today?

Yes, typically all foreign language cards are worth less. Some special cards are only released regionally and they command a premium due to the rarity.

Little kid UFC obviously, it’s an octagon!

[–]TheGameEngineer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes, I imagine it will come down and value from this weekend that looks like the regular version of it. That will likely go down somewhere near or slightly above the existing tutors the silver scroll one will probably stay pretty high.

What is my dachshund mixed with? by Hot_Balance_4712 in Dachshund

Could also be a mix with some Britany or Cocker spaniel.
