Visa and MasterCard have made of their own employees the mildly annoying trash mobs farmed as part of a daily quest whose reward is stripping points away from their own, once eldritchian, health bars.
I started writing this as a sort of follow up to yesterday's story, but wow, I don't want to let that shit keep taking up space in my head.
I'm trying to write more in general, it's something I find too easy to simply put off over and over again until I suddenly realize I haven't posted on my site in a month. It's always felt odd because I enjoy writing. I love feeling the words flow out of me onto the page. (I don't love that I keep having to use my tablet to shoo away wasps!)
Sure, call your reps, see if they answer the phone. But, first, call and email Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, and Stripe. Tell them, respectfully, those customer service folks didn't do shit to you, what you want and what you will do if you don't get it.
Stop letting white suprematists and Nazis decide what artist is allowed to eat or have a roof over her head because making a phone call or writing an email is hard.
A journalist’s life has been threatened for 51 days straight for the “crime” of reporting on a fascist as well as the creeping air of queerphobic rot seeping into a multi-million dollar industry she covers.
It’s being treated as “drama”
At 2 this morning I was laying awake, wracked with period cramps. Sleep refused me so I opened BlueSky, foolishly hoping for a distraction or a book recommendation, when I instead saw a post about an “Economic Blackout” tomorrow. Two minutes of googling confirmed my worst suspicions
I haven’t touched armor decks since BT8, but I picked this one up the day before the CoreTCG regional and managed to take 70th, so damn it I’m proud and want to show it off!
Idan started playing Devas the week before Nationals, then proceeded to go technically undefeated for the entire run (Because he tied) Until making day 2. When it all shook out Idan took 46th place at the 2023 NA nationals and was the only Deva player to crack the top 64. And I have an interview and deck profile with him!
HOLY CRAP! That was a long day, but I clawed my way to 7th so now I can show off that there is indeed some brewing space left in ShineGreymon!
I'm just going to say it, Hot Take, Agu X isn't that good!
I'd be lying if I didn't say I want to make this the first VoD to go out in the new wave since I finally got to play on my own damn stream. While I personally don't love the ACE mechanic for my own style, this was a fun pre-release and these decks do seem like they're going to introduce some interesting tools for thier respective archetypes; not that any of the different Greymon archetypes need it, and none of it's pieces do anything for Shine so the doom sayers can relax.
