Crushed the Thursday night Standard Challenge with my build of Jund Sacrifice! No one else is playing Rottenmouth Viper, but it's super good in the deck. It enables big combo turns with Biotech, Baginses, and Voidborn, it's huge, it's an elemental! 🐍 #mtg #mtgStandard
I think @jonbois.bsky.social’s “17,776“ is a beautiful vision of what adapting to this change actually could be

John Moe@johnmoe.bsky.social · 5mo agoHere I invite you to be a micro-heretic. To bring small shame on your people. Tell me about a highly praised thing in your hometown/area that all locals LOVE except YOU. I’m from the Seattle area. Taco Time is nothing special. Bland. Not horrible but not worth going out of your way. Now you go!
as soon as I read this one, I had to get in front of the mic about it (I went to the tune of "Another Irish Drinking Song" by Da Vinci's Notebook) vocaroo.com/1nSmL4LInJ5b

I just want to say that @cascadecascade.com is the kind of project the community always asks for and then wonders why it goes away. Great writing takes financial support. If you want less shitty content in the world, get a subscription. It's like getting 20 Patreons for the price of one.

"Mass immigration is good, socially and economically; is the single most significant factor in America’s current position as the global locus of commerce and culture; we’ve been lucky to have it; and we should want more," writes @felipedlh.bsky.social. newrepublic.com/article/2080...

trans people rule, they deserve our love and support, and everyone is better off when we can, as a society, acknowledge the reality that gender is not a strict binary based on the body you were born in
Aaron Reichlin-Melnick@reichlinmelnick.bsky.social · 7mo agoToday is the Transgender Day of Visibility and I'll take the opportunity to once again say that trans people matter, their lives have meaning, and what's being done to them by so many politicians and people in this country is wrong.

I think restricting data tends to hurt individuals who are working on their own for tournaments. I also know in my own experience going through tournament results helps me find what off meta decks I can play. Without knowing the meta it is safer to just play the best deck.
