    The Undecided Case For Harris: If she wins, it will humiliate both Elon Musk and Hillary Clinton at the same time, and no matter your politics at least one of those outcomes has to be pretty sweet.

    Excited to announce that I’ve accepted a contract as a remote consultant for Magic’s Play Design team. Magic has been a major part of my life for 25 years and getting to touch it in some small way is a tremendous honor.

    Activision worked my whole studio crunch hours for a year and then laid everyone off a week after launch and strangely no new jargon emerged to describe what happened.
    A new trend in the workplace: "ghosting." As in, employees just leave for a new job without telling anyone at the old job. They just don't come back. Caused by a strong economy and weak social skills. Great story by @DPAQreports. washingtonpost.com/business/2018/…

    Is the constant perversion of language such that every Palestinian is a guilty adult and every Israeli is an innocent child part of a broader, successful agenda of Palestinian dehumanization? Yes. Is the phrase “kidnapped from a tank” genuinely hilarious? Also yes.

    You make Ravnica, you create a rich world from which you can draw from and add to until the end of time. You make X-Men Storm with “Storm” in the text box, you have whatever that’s worth, and UBs are rarely going to offer anything more than that on repeat.

    Donald Trump was shot. I don’t care what your political views are but the hate for Trump and his supporters has gone too far. People are terrified to admit they support Trump. I’ve been scared myself. Americans shouldn’t live in fear. I support Trump. Many at Sticker Mule

    Probably gameplay net-positive but brutal to ban three cards that probably represent some of the most expensive cards owned by a sizable minority of the player base, all of which have been either designed or leveraged by WotC to monetize the format.
    UPDATE: Changes to the banned list: Dockside Extortionist is banned Jeweled Lotus is banned Mana Crypt is banned Nadu is banned. Additional details: mtgcommander.net/?p=1729. or magic.wizards.com/en/news/announ…

    A country in which a popular protection is overturned by a panel of 9 unelected judges appointed for life, 4 of whom were nominated by presidents who lost the popular vote, and all of whom were confirmed through an anti-democratic senate is not a democracy, republic, or adjacent.
