As a Catholic woman, I find the commencement speech by that football player disgusting and I'm ashamed to have anything in common with him.
And yes I also grew up learning queer-phobia but I was at least smart enough to see through the bullshit.
"The women who just earned their degrees today don't understand they would be happier as homemakers" I hope someone accidentally spills soup on him whenever he goes out in public.

It’s only aurora if it’s from the Auroron region of Canada.
Otherwise, it’s just sparkling space weather

I live having guests over, but it's sometimes hard when I wake up at 5 or 6 am and they wake up at 10 am. Just have to hang around the house quietly for 4-5 hours. Which is difficult because I can't clean (not very quiet) and they're sleeping in the room with all the stuff I'd normally be doing (painting miniatures, computer)

For a bit of Sunday happiness & silliness: tell me about some a book you've recently excitedly told someone about and why!

I've talked about Erin Meyer's "Culture Map" because it opened my eye to a lot of intercultural interactions I have in both, my everyday and my work life.

And about Marcin Wicha's "Things I Didn't Throw Out" because it made me laugh and cry at the same time + made me fall in love with Daunt books because I would not have found out about the book without them.

@vicgrinberg I recently read The Giver of Stars, which is a historical fiction about the Packhorse Librarians of Kentucky (US) during the great depression.

There were a lot of places in Kentucky that didn't have library access because of distances and rural mountain terrain. So the Packhorse Librarians would load 100 ish books into saddlebags every day and ride all around the county delivering books to secluded families.

Very well written. Good description of Kentucky

Canada owns the copyright on the northern lights so if you live in the US and saw them you have to, by international law, remove your eyes and mail them to Justin Trudeau

Rulings question... "creatures get" modifier and cards that care about power/toughness when creatures enter the battefield

What happens when an opponent plays a creature if I have a Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite in play (“opponent’s creatures get -2/-2”) and my opponent has Pantlaza in play? Does Pantlaza get the trigger off the creature’s original stats or off the number resulting from Elesh’s reduction?

Artemis201,
@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

@bec pantlaza will see the creature enter under the effect of Elesh Norn.
"Creatures get" is a status effect that applies as long as a creature is on the battlefield. It doesn't trigger, it just is.
Compare this with an activated or triggered ability which goes on the stack and can be responded to.
Elesh Norn simply changes the rules of the game, so Pantlaza never gets the chance to see the bigger version of the creature

You know, I absolutely don’t mind that it was too bright for the Aurora. I’m relishing the pure joy of so many folks posting about their experience overnight. Often from people who have never seen the Aurora. It is all so joyful. This amazing, dazzling world.

Artemis201,
@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

@NunavutBirder I agree!
This is my second time ever getting to see them (first was in Fairbanks last month).
My mind is completely blown getting to see them from my bedroom window in Boulder CO! Plus we found a really good viewing spot for the future.
I'm loving all the pictures from around the world

@NunavutBirder sadly I think it's just predicted to be G3 when it rolls back around to me tonight. I could get lucky if I went somewhere out of town, but only just on the horizon.

@NunavutBirder guess it's gotta be to reach 40° North in Colorado. I'll definitely be keeping an eye out

Getting some pretty amazing photos with a 4 second exposure at ISO 320 from my backyard in thanks to our G5 big reds, oranges, and some greenish-blue streaks right now, at latitude 40°N 105°W - caught a helicopter, too

I liked people posting annoying commentary as quote-tweets a lot better than when they do it in comments. Quotes were easier to ignore - because it felt that they were meant for their followers, not for me to react to and to manage (esp. if I don't want to be flooded with notifications). Can't wait for the feature.

(Because this is : you may feel different about this. It is obviously fine. Be civil, don't mansplain - even if you are not a man.)

@stux uh oh. Looks like SONY is doubling down on their PSN bans. In addition to not actually walking anything back, they've now added 3 more countries to their #helldivers2 banned list.

Not only that, they've now done the same for Ghost of Tsushima Director's Edition
