Companies using AI for hiring purposes suck, man.

@atbashhang that happened to me at olive garden. went in for my interview and they said they would keep my resume on file in case the position opened. fortunately i had another interview right after and wound up working there instead

@atbashhang Bro I used to work at Auntie Anne's and the amount of people I had to turn away because the Al chatbot did the same thing and gave them an interview time when we weren't supposed to take any made me feel bad every time

If you complain that women don't play at your local shop you should probably take a step back and look at the atmosphere and people?
I don't know why there's game store owners complaining about turnout among women when you don't even have a bathroom not covered in piss.

Yes, though they're doing that with Lorwyn Eclipsed too so sounds like it's just gonna be a thing going forward.

Paige, TheMaverickGirl @themaverickgirl.bsky.social · 20h

Apparently the lands weren't representative of the set actually and it's sub 200 cards again 🙃

Does sound like this one wasn't designed for pick-two draft though?

Hi Pauper players! I wanted to provide an update on High Tide.

With the wider Magic B&R announcement moved two weeks earlier, we will now be making our check-in (and any potential B&R update) that day as well. So that's November 10th. You'll hear more at that time!

It doesn't look great, but it makes sense.
