Derek pled guilty to federal charges. He's done. He was denied even a public defender unless he melted down his entire pension and spent every nickel of it first. Combined with the threat that if fought the charges at all they would run the sentence consecutively he gave up. I don't blame him...

Chauvin was convicted of second degree murder, third degree murder and manslaughter. So he intentionally killed Floyd, didn't intend to kill Floyd but killed him through intentionally trying to cause great harm and also killed him unintentionally with no malice and he did all of these things...

I went and relistened to the audiobook for The Hellbound Heart. It is an older recording of questionable sound quality but I think Clive Barker does the reading. I've gone back to it a few times over the years and I'm still surprised at how much lore there is to be found in the small novella...

You did see the movie title right.

The part of the interaction that I can empathize the least with Chauvin is when the minutes are dragging on and he never doubts his own actions. How does the voice inside your head tell you to just stay the course? I absolutely don't have that ability. That being said there is a defense. People...

I believe the comment that set people off was you saying you didn't know anything about Floyd the man.

This show was often very good but this episode is great.

Woman's husband has unexpectedly killed himself and as she's packing up their home she begins to learn of his dark secrets. This was really, really good. The lead plays a woman with some darkness in her as well and she's just great. My only complaint (and it is a small one) is there's your...

It's the fasting talk that I cannot handle. I cannot stand to listen to a single word about a religious practice that predates written language from some atheist that had his mind blown by baby's first spiritual journey.

Dutch and Rambo team up to fight off an alien invasion, sounds good. unrelated

It's Zelda but the original Super Mario Brothers box and that entire initial release of games with the pixel covers tickle some very specific memberberries. I do think that Final Fantasy has some real next level box art given when it came out. The instruction manual was good too and it came...

Given the choice I'd rather be an American psuedo-celebrity twitch streamer kind of pro player than the South Korean doing what it takes to be the best kind of pro player.

Looking full mast to me.

Much of the film was some pretty mediocre contemporary horror but it does finally develop a point during the last act. The different transitions during each schism looked great where the walls pull away or pits open up but I think the cenobites were all just a little too busy in their design...

Ain't no one got time to use a new mug for each cup of tea. You use the same mug. Forever.

It gives us a little window in to what an abandonment of the reserved list would look like. If they're charging 999.95 for four packs of proxies than cards that were legal for play would be a some multiple of that.

I suspect there are more people that used to play in this thread than actually play. Boomers that only collect/buy reserved list cards and play 93/94 or whatever don't count as playing. Mist has the right idea with the Arena limited play. It's a way of leveraging skill and mastery in a game of...

I wonder if Boomers reached a point where they didn't want everything from their youth prostituted back to them any longer. Probably not.

What I like the most about the official messaging https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/news/celebrate-30-years-magic-gathering-30th-anniversary-edition-2022-10-04 is this - Generations new and old can recapture that iconic experience for only 999.95!

Sure but is more what we were told and told that more than once.

Sol Ring downshifted to common? Is the pauper format just INVISIBLE to these people? edit - going back and cropping art, changing flavor text, excluding certain cards (Earthbind, Weakness, Crusade) bothers me as much as the price tag. Just can't not fuck with everything.

Back in the long, long ago there were non-tournament legal complete sets of I think Alpha. They were a short-lived product in the early days of Magic and they would occasionally get brought up. I'm pretty sure Mark Rosewater has said several times we'd never get that them again. That's what I...

Upright Citizens Brigade was good stuff. Unrelated

Warhammer Online flashbacks.

For thirty years and due solely to this movie I used to think Sgt. Slaughter was a mega star in professional wrestling. The power of cinema.

It's not an exhaustive list so if you're deep diving on spectres you might have to use PoEDB, Path of Exile Wiki. You can add custom modifers under Configuration also if you know a spectre just does X.

I've kinda been picking skele mages back up and it's hard to tell what the nerf even was. The quality of life on that skill is just so high.

The first couple of weeks were horribad but it's good now. It's real good.

PathofMath got told he's welcome to make another account but the one he put a few grand in to is staying banned.

I threw together the basics (Fleshcrafter, 3x Grand Spectrum, Necromantic Aegis) and they're just such better units that skeletal archers. Archers blow.

And that's where monkeypox comes from.

We're not quite to October yet but how often does Bronson Pinchot come up in conversation not very much I'll have you know but his reading of The Halloween Tree by Ray Bradbury is just wonderful.

Yeah, it's skele archers. I've been spending a lot of my time this league fucking about with different minions and a whole mess of spectres and while there are plenty of configurations that map just fine without much investment nothing has that "oh fuck" feeling that old syndicate operatives or...

Thank you. I'm currently running around with phantasmal vaal summon skeletons doing poison on an occultist and as a proof of concept it clears alright but I'm skeptical I can get anywhere without spending enough money that could have greased any terrible idea.

Got a PoB for Rathpith skele mages?

I agree with Juvarisx in that it *looks* alright.
