Interesting paper! When you ask people about the most important issue "facing the country," they often say immigration. But when you ask them about issues facing them personally, it doesn't crack the top 10.

This indicates that voters are reacting to media narratives, not their own experience.

Immigration is the most important issue facing your country

Immigration is the 14th most important issue facing you personally

Not sure what the deal is with more FF cards coming out in December, but I really hope we get enough to brew an exclusively FFXV deck around Noctis, Heir Apparent.

Probably something like this? Not sure what order things would progress in just yet, or which subclasses.

May even forego the Monk levels for something else since it’s mostly for flavor.

To my friends who play D&D 5e:

What are your thoughts on a purely martial character with a weapon for every situation (and the expertise to use them)?

I’ve seen some creators pointing out that this AI processing has been occasionally causing sudden high-contrast screen glitches, essentially flashbanging viewers and turning the affected videos into epileptic seizure risks.

In 2008, Google created an ad-powered wiki encyclopedia called Knol, seen as a "Wikipedia killer" amid its highly-publicized launch. And the Wikimedia Foundation gave an unbothered response that I quite like: "the more good free content, the better for the world." Anyway Knol instantly flopped

My friend, why are you giving money to Target?

They’re still hella blacklisted after capitulating to the whole anti-DEI thing and then digging in their heels.

The most useful thing you can have in a kitchen is, of course, the portal to the meat dimension.

You just reach your arm into the meat portal and pull out a chunk of fresh, still-hot raw meat. What animal is it from, who knows. It is delicious.

Like, I’m already finding it VERY difficult to care about (or justify the price of) sets released in the post-Hasbro Acquisition era, and I feel like stripping the game of even more of its identity is going to drive away far more invested players than however many new ones they hope to attract.

M0RTARP0D @m0rtarp0d.bsky.social · 10d

Leave Hybrid mana rules as they are. Otherwise what’s the point of even having color identity as a mechanic in the first place?

Why would you want to further dilute what makes Magic unique?

Are you not satisfied with the majority UB release schedule for next year doing that already?

Yeah, Lumravis def the weakest of the bunch here.

With Yedora at the helm, we can turn all those face-down forests into creatures with Life and Limb, then flip them as needed with Hauntwoods Shrieker.

Sylvan Anthem is kinda neat for utility as well.
