I will not bring my cosplay to any state that passes anti drag laws. Many of the characters I portray blur or defy gender lines and I cannot risk being charged with a felony for simply showing my art.
Anti-"Drag" legislation in America, which will be used to persecute trans-people, is in full swing.
The "predator" rhetoric, which is being used to fuel this hatred, is HERE in Canada.
Times are scary. Every day, queer folx are reminded that hating us is socially acceptable.
Going to take advantage of Tolkien trending because of racist pieces of shit. Look at my sick Witch King of Angmar cosplay. Wish I could wear this to an MTG LOTR event. 😭
Happy

I'm just going to say it. None of the phyrexianized planeswalkers should have been able to come back. At the very least the mending of their bodies should have irrevocably changed them into only a shell of their former selves. 1/2

#Magic30
Cosplay Contest!
Congratulations
@DarkPactCosplay
!!!
We will have more of the cosplays from the show over social media tomorrow & the show will go online in the near future!
I'm going to be real with yall. The second I see AI used in MTG or DND to replace artists, designers, or creative staff, I am not engaging with the product. I'll still play with non-AI made magic and DND product, but I cannot knowingly promote the end of my friends careers.
You all have no idea how excited I was to be asked by
@TolarianCollege
to play on Shuffle Up and Play. On top of that I get to play with two of my favorite creators
@Theasianavenger
and
@Spice8Rack
. Truly one of my favorite
#MTG
experiences ever. Episode premiering soon!
I just want to put this out there to
@wizards_magic
: I am currently mulling over what Phyrexian character I'm going to make for Philly. If you happen to have a new completed planeswalker you'd like cosplayed for that event, I'll sign whatever NDA so I can create the cosplay.
OK. I need to make one more post about these two amazing people. I didn't have the chance to say this when I met you back stage: In my application for the New Perspectives Grant I specifically said I aspired to become a MTG cosplayer like

Chasing down the phyrexian walkers as they fight for control of the remains of Phyrexia would have been an amazing and gut wrenching follow up narrative. It's a disappointing miss and continues my biggest criticism of modern mtg story telling. There are no stakes. ever. 2/2
Good morning class, I will be filling in for professor Li....Onyx this morning. Turn your texts books to page 394. We will start with the fall of the Tran Empire.

post! Fun fact. I didn't identify as nonbinary until after I premiered Ashiok at Magic 30. Because amazing MTG fans used they/them pronouns when they talked to me I had a realization that I really identified personally with not being male or female.
Fuck it. While I'm on March of the Machine hot takes, Phyrexia should not have been defeated end game style. It was unoriginal and anticlimactic. Wanna know how I would have written it? 1/7

JUDGE!!
Navigating the details of what ETB's do and don't double with Norn is a littlew much haha. Would Isochron scepter's imprint ability trigger twice and would I be able to access both exiled cards or just the most recently exiled one?
Can someone explain surge engine to me... so if I activate the 1st and 2nd ability does that last until end of turn or is it a until it leaves the battlefield?

@DarkPactCosplay
was watching your shuffle up and play episode and couldn't help but adore the lovely pins and patches you had on <3 especially the steven universe ones!!
Since I have so many new followers, I want to introduce myself! I am Dark Pact Cosplay, your local cosplay cult leader. With your devotion and worship, I forge dark and terrible costumes and props from my favorite pieces of fiction. Links to all socials are in my bio!
Rey should have remained a nobody. No Palpatine relation at all, keep the parentage a unknown. She should have represented how even from nothingness, potential can be found and forged into a force for good. I love her character, she deserved more than what episode 9 gave her.
Some final

thoughts. A lot was very different than what I was used to. I spent a lot of Magic Cons in full restrictive costume for 80% + of the show.
So proud to announce that I will be joining the

program. I was litterally just a fan less than a year ago. I would not be here if it wasn't for y'alls support! Full announcement video below!

Any WoTC staff, current or former, that happens to be following me, I hope you are doing alright. Many you work absolute miracles while being pulled in 5 different directions. I know it's going to be tough to maintain that after today. I hope you know how deeply I admire you all.
I'll be honest. If Jace has been Ashiok for more than OTJ or the whole time. I'm going to be wildly disappointed. I'm already really sad about this choice. For multiple reasons.
We are going live in a few minutes with an opening of
#MtGWoE
collector and set booster boxes! Come hangout and bask in cardboard goodness

#mtgambassador
I'll just say it. Jace should be dead or the start of a new phyrexia arc in 10 years. Let him go. I'm sick and tired of seeing his white bread ass on MTG stories, especially when he's impersonating one of the few Queer characters.
Drafted
#MarchoftheMachine
today. The guy next to me has been out of the game for 15 years and asks for advice on his first draft pick. He shows me his first pack... it has a fucking Ragavan in it.
I want to say thank you to mtg creator allies that called out and reported the absolutely disgusting racism on the new Aragorn art tweet. I know for me personally, having to continously argue for my representation in fandoms I love is very tiring and just depressing to engage in.
I personally just hate clear cut good guys win narratives. War is messy. Stories that capture that horror should show some of the Grey that shades conflict. OK. Rant over haha. 7/7
Many folks have asked me which

The feminine authoritilative form in this piece oozed absolute opulence. I knew I had to bring Magali's work to life. 😁

It's astounding that there's even fucking discourse on this. There is no ethical consumption under capitalism. Period. Trying to play purity contests is a race to the bottom. This lair is by far the last hair to split on the Hasbro corporate greed list.
It's okay to criticize corporate greed where it exists.
I don't see Sheldon's Spellbook as profiting off of his death because it would still be released if he were alive today to jam the cards in his decks.
It's ridiculously heartwarming to see so many
#MTG
and gaming folks are not only supportive but very knowledgeable about what is happening in each of their states. I know I'm on the good side of twitter. You all give me hope.
I will not bring my cosplay to any state that passes anti drag laws. Many of the characters I portray blur or defy gender lines and I cannot risk being charged with a felony for simply showing my art.
I still can't believe I've made it this far. I'm so deeply thankful for the love and support I've got from
#MTG
fans. You've lifted me so much. I hope I can repay you in kind.
As a nonbinary person I also fear that my very presence in public could be contrived to be illegal by the standards in these bills. If you live in these states now is the time to start blowing up your legislator's phone.
