Plus Duke has a secret ability that if someone tries to argue the sentence isn’t grammatical you get to give them a swirlie.
minus-squarestray@pawb.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·13 days agoPretty sure they’re right. If something has no effect on you, it doesn’t affect you. I can’t do a comprehensive search right now, but I’ve so far been unable to find the word “effect” on card text.
