In April of last year, I wrote a few thousand words on the Magic Hall of Fame. There's some HoF trivia, my favorite speech, and I make a case for Sheldon Menery, @bdm.bsky.social, and @tolariancommunitycollege.com as contributors. It's one of my favorite Mana Club editions and, IMO, worth a read.

7-0 with Orzhov good stuff for box #1. My best tip for Arena Direct this weekend: play WB. So far, it has 40.2% of all 17lands trophies. That's 2x what we've expect in a five archetype set. For context, Golgari is the runner up 13.7% of trophies. Orzhov is dominating, black cards are good.

Oh interesting, people who don’t know how to build software are getting mad at my post about building software. Cute. Let me be clear, over the next year, the job of software engineer will shift dramatically to no longer have typing syntax into an editor as its primary time sink.
You assume incorrectly that simply typing code into the computer is the foundational aspect of my job
We must ban surveillance pricing now before even more companies start using AI to charge you more based on your personal data. I’ve introduced the first federal bill to ban it, and I’m glad to see a proposal in New Jersey to do the same.
