I am thrilled and proud beyond measure to support the amazing workers who create and design the games I and my loved ones have spent a lifetime playing. I implore everybody to sign the petition and signal boost the campaign as far and wide as we can!

This morning, the D&D team and Magic's Studio X informed our leadership of our intent to unionize. We love the games we make and the work we do, and unionizing is how we protect that work. unitedwizardsofthecoast.com/news/dnd-stu...

At the store I managed at the time, I joked for weeks that the Helvault might contain anything, including bees. So, the night before the prerelease, I printed out a few sheets of paper with the letter B repeated over and over on them, cut up the Bs with a paper cutter… (1/2)

Answer to yesterday's #mtgtrivia question: A cardboard Helvalut filled with prizes for the people in the prerelease when they met a certain condition through gameplay. #WotCStaff

What a weekend! I spoke with so many wonderful and passionate people at #MCAmsterdam, and I have a lot of great questions and ideas to bring home. Thank you to everyone I spoke to or met, and thanks to all attendees/staff/etc for making MagicCon what it is: a celebration of what we love. #wotcstaff

I had so much fun meeting people at #MCAmsterdam today and hearing their questions and thoughts about Magic rules. I’ll be back tomorrow in the same spot (left of the white stage in the ticketed play area) for most of the day. I’ll post specific hours tomorrow. See you there! #wotcstaff

I am stunned that the constitutional question was so close. I thought it would be 6–3 or 7–2. It is profoundly disturbing that four justices would allow either the president or Congress to rewrite the plain text of the 14th Amendment. This is obviously a good outcome, but the margin is alarming.

I am listening through some music by folks that inspired Metric (since I’m going to a show of theirs this month, love them) and I have just absolutely fallen in love with Black Box Recorder. Sarah Nixey in particular is incredible.

Since it came up in my replies: The Magic rules team doesn't handle the Magic Tournament Rules, but we work very closely with the folks who do! If you have feedback about that doc (or other tournament docs like the Judging at Regular REL doc or Infraction Procedure Guide), feel free to tell me!

Tired: Left my lunch for today at home in my fridge :( Wired: Wow, nice of me to pre-make my lunch for Saturday so I can spend less time cooking and more time gaming

Hey folks! Setting expectations: I won’t answer every rules question. It’s not because I don’t like you! It’s for one of many reasons, including but not limited to: * I have lots going on * I’m having discussions behind the scenes * I’m out of office/on vacation/etc Please ask, though! #wotcstaff

I snuck it into my profile the other day, but I did get promoted to Magic Rules Manager. (Don’t worry, Jess is still around, he just has a different, even fancier title.) “Specialist” did sound cooler, but the upside of having my hard work officially recognized this way is much greater. #wotcstaff
