Card mechanic and conjurer posting regular demos and tutorials. I also discuss anything related to the deceptive arts, whether sleight-of-hand or stage illusions, scams or psychological trickery.
On the more whimsical evenings, expect me to share whatever is bizarre, grotesque, strange, uncanny, surreal, esoteric or arcane.

@cstross @CinnasVerses @techtakes I also note how these people are obsessed with having a second everything: a second brain (you already have one in your skull); a second planet (you already live on one); a second paternalistic idol (so your real daddy wasn't perfect, get over it), etc.
It's as if reality is just too messy and inconvenient for them, so they want to build a whole, more pristine digital/virtual alternative for them to enjoy while the real world burns...with the rest of us on it.
