Turns out it contains The Quiet Year, by Avery Alder!
I can’t wait to try the game! It look really interesting ♥️♦️♣️

I received this suspicious burlap sack in the mail...

That’s Very interesting to me for some reason... relationships that are based entirely online often feel less real than relationships that occur offline and I’m interested in how that happens and how we should consider these relationships

Mary Maggic’s 6 point plan for hormone queering resistance

Existence as linked to authority

Another author (Paul B. Preciado) on the similarities in the requests of migrants and trans people to the state

I really like the way this text is written, using “we” as a pronoun and very often going “which is kind of like when ...”

Also I saw a talk by Maggic back at 34c3 and I’m curious to re-watch it after reading that book to see if my understanding has progressed

Goes with the previous extracts

Queer theory is haaaard y’all

I mean obviously I think that’s important as someone who was born from two mothers via artificial means

The landscape of reflections about tech and the internet has changed since the 90s basically because a) we saw it wouldn’t live up to expectations and b) we all got irony poisoning.

Finally reading this again and here’s a pretty bleak look back at the failed dreams of the hackers of the 1990s, or rather what we got from the internet instead of liberation and freedom

There’s little to no ethical creation under capitalism I’m afraid

Lost my third and fourth matches 2-1 and 2-0 lol
It was still fun!! I should go more often!! In fact I think I’ll go regularly at least for Eldraine to do more limited events cause I really like that set... and it also gets me to talk to people and my “casual conversation” English gets better (and also my sociability...)

Anyway that was a good afternoon/evening!

(I got a booster box...)

Ready for the Throne of Eldraine prerelease!

Reinventing social contact to integrate cyberspace, not empirically but consciously

Currently reading: Producing Futures: A Book on Post-Cyber-Feminisms by a collective of cyber-feminist artists. It’s actually the catalogue of an exhibit at Migros Museum für Gegrnwartskunst (in Zurich, Switzerland), that took place earlier this year.

Last week I've been reading Death Vigil, by Stjepan Sejic (the artist/writer who also did Sunstone). It's a sort of Urban Fantasy/Mystical series, that tells the tale of the struggle between the Death Vigil, a group of people brought back from the dead to fight by Death herself, and the Necromancers, a sect trying to bring Eldritch horrors into our dimension, using the powers they get from mystical runes.

I knew at the onset that I really liked the drawing style of Stjepan Sejic, from reading Sunstone, and that holds true here, and even more: I really like his character designs, and his weird creature designs remind me of the "Eldritch Moon" Magic the Gathering set. He keeps some lighthearted moments in the series, which are welcome given the levels of tension you get at some moments, and also helps make the characters really likeable.

Anyway, all of that to say that it's a really cool comic book series... that unfortunately stops after that first collected volume, unresolved, with apparently no plans to push the story forwards...

In my opinion it's still worth checking out! But yeah, be aware that it won't be finished any time soon

BadMTGCombos more like amazing MTG Combos lol https://www.reddit.com/r/BadMtgCombos/comments/cwlcsf/stonks/
