Anyway, I'll be moving to New York at the end of the month, so if anyone has recs for places to live within an hour of Tarrytown please let me know. I'm open to Connecticut or New Jersey to get cheaper property taxes. Also if anyone has a rec for an LGS in the Westchester area, hook a catbug up.
Also, man, just look at the hype and excitement for in world magic. This is what I crave.
I could write 1,900 words on why this rocks, but it would all boil down to this: this is why I play and love Magic.
Alix Branwyn@alixbranwyn.com · 2d agoI included the amulet she gives to Yawgmoth to summon her as well. I designed that as an adornment on her forehead, to symbolically represent the vulnerability she has in giving it to him and trusting him. It sits in the very place that he wounds her in his brutal betrayal later in the book.
Real talk though-- seeing the excitement and love for *Magic* characters and worlds shown on the cards? Unmatched. The energy I see on my feed for in-universe Magic IP is unmatched compared to another UB preview season.

Forgot about MBC today, so I was confused at the number of notifications after getting out of The Odyssey matinee lmao
When they finally build a physical Magic: The Gathering Hall of Fame, should it be in Cleveland? Or is the popular opinion that it should be in Akron, instead?
Trans rights are human rights. There is nothing complex about it. There is nothing nuanced about it. There is nothing to debate. Either you support humans having rights, or you don't.
Everyone said Bluesky was a fresh start and that we should all stop quote tweeting to dunk (ragebait or dumb opinions). I kindly remind you of that voluntary oath that makes things on here more pleasant

Issue Two is moving right along but Cal and I are sickos so we're already working on Issue Three. Now is a great time to get a submission in! If you're interested but don't know where to start, my DMs are open!
CASCADE CASCADE - SUMMER VACATION@cascadecascade.com · 2mo agoNew submission guidelines just dropped :) Let us read your work :) :) :)
Quick missing Magic lore request: The Invasion minisite's Rumors of War shockwave flash file appears to not have been archived. The original would have been at this address. (I remember how it played circa 2018.) If anyone locates the functional SWF file, send it my way for $20 bounty
I'm really really happy that we can finally show folks one of the things I worked on while at Cyan. A total dream come true to get to design and write a new Myst game. Heartbroken it won't see the light of day but glad it won't sit on a shelf forever!
Cyan Worlds@cyan.com · last wk.Over a year ago, we built a prototype for a new Myst Universe game meant for publisher eyes only. This project is NOT in active development, but we're proud of the work the team did, and wanted to share it with you all. Presenting: Project Anglerfish. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvNGt02yZNc
Setting a goal for a consistent 10-minute mile before the end of summer. Is Strava the easiest way to track or other recs?
Saw the Hadestown pro-shot with KD and I'm still as big a sucker for this as when we saw it on tour
Sad to learn that "unboxing videos" don't feature two dudes in a ring with gloves on helping each other rest and heal.
What a pleasant dive into the canon-compliant niche within a niche that is UB reskins. It's a joy to read these getting puzzled together, and tangentially to wonder what cards certain artworks have been rescued from (before looking them up via diligent art credits)
Dominarian Plowshare@mtgplowshare.bsky.social · last mo.My article today blends reflection with creation: I analyze the messy process of developing Universes Within proxies--& share my own. In a world where IP peddlers depend on making people passive consumers, it's liberating to be unofficially creative. give it a read! substack.com/home/post/p-...
i like to come up with opinions that no one has ever believed or even heard of before and put "gentle reminder:" in front of them
I've wanted to make these for years and finally bit the 50+ hour tedious reformatting bullet to get there. Majority of those hours would have otherwise been spent hustling public Super Battle Golf lobbies lmao

2-1 in the first flight of my LGS's annual cube event. Playing with cards I like
Okay, I've posted about Magic enough for today, but I will say, full voice It feels really good to feel excited about Magic again. Haven't been this jazzed about the game in a sec, but I'm really excited for Reality Fracture + the 2027 in-universe sets
