I play Arena every day, and in-person with two friends on the weekend. I’m getting back in after leaving the game a long time ago. Life got in the way, mostly drinking and cavorting, but now I’m back. Arena has really helped to learn all the different aspects of MTG today. It’s improved my in person play considerably. The idea of drafting is intimidating. There is a lot of pressure to make a decision, and I don’t have enough experience or knowledge to get a deck with a chance to won at least once. Someday though, I’ll be at the LGS to draft.

Better than any not I’ve seen, thanks!

This is the best secular world view I’ve found. Since leaving religious thinking behind, I wondered abit between nihilism and the world is what you make it. The Dichotomy of Control really resonated with me. Funny enough, I started rereading Epictetus’ Enchiridion The book, How to be a Stoic by Massimo Pigliucci is good to. I found it more accessible. Here is a video with him https://youtu.be/qjz5a8X9LjU?si=0OsptyOS7MvHiYw0

I immediately thought about this guy

Are you me? That is my core podcast rotation, lol. I want another lawyer driven pod that covers the Trump and all the satellite cases. I’ll come back here with a recommendation when I find one.

Listen to Opening Arguments Podcast. They are doing a fantastic job providing insightful legal analysis. They stick to the facts and their predictions are mostly on the mark. When they aren’t, they’re up front about, and explain the situation. Great jokes too, like “Cheese and Crackers” to describe Chessebro and Powel’s speedy trial getting tied together

Reminds of a quote I thought was attributed to Jefferson “If a law is unjust, a man is not only right to disobey it, he is obligated to do so.” Turns out it isn’t his, but I think it’s still valid.

He’s like Tom getting hit with and anvil while trying to catch Jerry

The only thing he will respond to. He has no shame, brags about it even. GET REKT

Yahtzee!

• The Judge

“House of cards” got me thinking. It’s like he’s been using Uno reverse cards and all his debts and deals for years and years. Now New York has hit him with a bunch of Draw Four cards.

If chatgpt was running a sex robot, do you think it’d try some really awkward techniques? I mean porno moves that don’t really happen in real life. How many genitals will be mutilated before we raise up against the machines?

I love being right, but it’s better when others think so too, lol

He still sucks massive donkey farts though

I’ve been looking for a replacement for “that sucks dick” and any variation. It’s homophobic. Now, donkey farts, That’s gonna be new go to! Thx

I need a chonky sweater

I first saw it in a crossover meme. The salesman slapping the top of a car while saying “this can fit so many” but the car was replaced by an actors butt from Broke Back Mountain. Now that I’ve written it out, I see that I missed the obvious, yet again, lol

I just started using planner as a digital kanban board. My new job has next to nothing written down. Everyone has been there for years so they “just know how to do it”. Well that doesn’t help a new person, lol. That is an innovative way to use the cards. I will definitely look into it more. I think the key takeaway is “if it helps you, use it!”

Since you’re using Microsoft already, OneNote is a great tool too. I write down most everything I do at work in it. My basic organization is as follows: OneNote NoteBook |_ Year - Collection for each year in the company/position |_ Month - Tab for every month |_ Daily Page - the title is important here, because the search function is kinda weird. It will return a list of pages the term is found, then highlight it once you’ve opened a page. For example a title like this, SA 23.09.2023, will show up. It helps me find the right page faster. I also created a second OneNote Notebook for all the projects, research, and often used procedures, organized similarly around topics rather than chronologically. For me, it’s a life saver. On my third job since I started using OneNote, still using my notes from years ago. The wiki article is what got me started. Now I don’t have remember what I did, because it’s written down and somewhat cataloged.

I thought it was a term like booty, totally missed the nuance. Not sure I’ll be peppering my conversations with in the same way. Now I’m wondering if I’ve sent some mixed signals, lol
