I was thinking "Arrakis chic"

The first CD I bought was Very - Pet Shop Boys. I liked the single go west quite a bit and the CD was very different from all the other albums in the record store.
I do not remember my first tape, but I do remember that being the first CD I spent my own money on.
I use it for tuna or egg salad, but that's it. I wish I could find something that works just as good but I actually like.
Oh man, my family loved Super Solvers Midnight Rescue! I vividly remember playing that with my older siblings, but our monitor was green and black, no color, so I'd never actually seen it before in color. But the music stuck with me and probably sparked my love for In the Hall of The Mountain King.
Also had Ernie's magic shapes and colors... which was pretty hard to do when everything is green. What were my parents thinking buying a color matching game without a color monitor?
Combat on the Atari 2600. There are games I remember better, but I do know that was my favorite... just no one would play it with me.
Doesn't really consider upcasting though...
I don't know if I'd call 20 years a slap on the wrist, it is a significant chunk of time, but it is no where near enough for the shit they did. When I went to Wikipedia to double check my info and saw that was the sentence I was appalled that was all she got. They do all deserve a life sentence for what they did.
I apologize, because this kind of sounds like a "not all men" comment, but I promise it's not meant to be. Unfortunately abuse is not just limited to being perpetrated by men, if I recall correctly Epstein famously had a female accomplice, who was apprehended and is serving time. Anyone perpetuating abuse is despicable and deserves our hate. I guess that goes without saying, however your use of "men" just stuck out in my mind and I wanted to make sure Ghislaine Maxwell and her ilk also get an equal amount of outrage directed at them.
Fuck all abusers and facilitators.
I mean, as far as I can tell she's basically a halfling.
I started playing during revised, specifically with the Fallen Empires expansion, and thought that the 4 card limit had always been a part of the game. I looked at my Pocket Players Guide from around that time and could not find that rule. After a little bit of research I ran into this comment on reddit, https://www.reddit.com/r/magicTCG/comments/2jxr9z/comment/clh3ip7 which seems to have an answer although their source linked no longer works. In 1996 the mirage rule book has the 4 card limit listed under "house rules" and in 1999 the Sixth Edition Comprehensive Rules Document has the 4 card limit listed as rule 100.2
Again unfortunately the link to that document is broken so we can't be 100% sure, but it seems the answer is sometime between Mirage in 1996 and Sixth Edition in 1999
