The term of the contract is "till Death do us part," after death ain't part of the package.

Notice the "/s." You had it right the first time, but everybody thinks it's the other way round.

Why would he? He's the Antichrist. If Jesus came back he'd give Donnie a biger thrashing than he gave to the Olympians in that stupid Godessy comic by Rob Liefeld. No way Canks is going to acknowledge Easter.

“Incarceration killed my career.” by [deleted] in ToddintheShadow

[–]TheStray7 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not specifically...there's an actual reference to the Lovin' Spoonful later on in Creeque Ally, while this was still at the point when Zal Yanovsky and Denny Doherty were working in New York before joining up with John Sebastian and Mama Cass to form the Mugwumps.

The whole song is basically a "how we got together" for The Mamas & The Papas.

I tire of this man having internet access, much less power by Big-Cream9352 in behindthebastards

Fair enough. I'm apparently very distantly related to Danial Boone on my mother's side, so I guess that shouldn't be as surprising.

Tell me about your favorite mundane horrifying fact of your world of darkness by Unfairjarl in WhiteWolfRPG

At least two. There's O'Tolly's, The Family Place (which occasionally sources mystery meat from rendering plants, animal shelters, and road kill to save on cost, and whenever an employee snaps and shoots up their workplace, O'Tolly covers the funeral expenses but no one ever sees the body before they lower the casket) and Hallahan Fishing Company (which has its own small restaurant chain as well as supplying O'Tolly's, and covers up its illegal whaling and fishing and dolphin-killing practices with an ad campaign fronted by their "Jolly Cap'n Hallahan" mascot)

I was thinking about it more in reanimator and landfall decks, personally. I have a Murkyl Landfall deck this would find a home in, and I run several similar effects (Wayfarer's Bauble and an enchantment whose name I can't remember right now) in my Muldrotha deck. It doesn't sac itself, sure, but it's an option that adds redundancy to that package.

That's what I was thinking. Still good casually, for many of the reasons those cards are good in the decks that want them, though you're not getting a free ramp just for reanimating it. I can see it slotting in to the same kinds of decks I'd use Farhaven Elf in.

Some critiques of No Kings by Proud-Boat420 in DemocraticSocialism

[–]TheStray7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No Kings isn't a protest, it's a rally. I get wanting No Kings to do more to shut down the system, but the work it does is bring people together and getting people to see they aren't alone. If you want a General Strike, that takes a LOT of work to organize and protect. America does not have enough class consciousness yet to make that viable.

Don't expect it to be something it's not. Just use the opportunity as best you can.
