Aetherdrift Legends Thread
Big congrats to Pia Nalaar for continuing to get tougher in every single appearance. Also, despite costuming changes and four different artists, she's been pretty consistently portrayed.

My wife has informed that this same day, my daughter told that they were learning about 911 in daycare and that she'll call them when mommy is dead.
Diya, my 4yo old: “Daddy I want to see one of your Magic cards.”
*I show her Thassa’s Bident*
Diya: “No Daddy, I like THAT one.”

I think the Lorwyn-Shadowmoor Gazetteer inside is very fun and definitely the draw of the book and adds some great worldbuilding the Planeswalker Guide lacks, but overall I don't think this is quite a $15 product? But I also don't know how it compares to the other $15 small releases on DnDBeyond.
Lorwyn First Light is out today on @dndbeyond.com!
It's about 14k words, a bit meatier than the old Plane Shift guides but not a full sourcebook or anything. Definitely going to run some one shots here.

Arjun and his friends are testing his Beyblades for the PAX Unplugged Tournament so he can figure out which ones to bring. It’s so cute. They’re very serious about this.

Capitalism is incredible. Sorry, former teacher, your retirement fund is gone because 5 guys who've collectively never worked a full hour told the banks to put all the money in the country into virtual girlfriend futures
WSJ: “.. If the AI market blows up, the blast radius would be wide, hitting not only Wall Street firms, but also pensions, mutual and exchange-traded funds and individual investors, because of how debt is often sliced and resold across the financial landscape.”

Alright, PAX Unplugged for me is tentatively:

It’ll be me and the boy Saturday, and the whole family on Sunday for just a few hours (doing paint and take and browsing).

In "Never do anything fun" news, here's my 4yo's brush teeth routine:
- "Daddy Mech Suit" carries her 5ft to the bathroom.
- She checks in to the dentist.
- The 'dentist' has to hold her like she's in a dentist chair while making small talk brushing her teeth.
- The mech suit brings her back.

More Americans are turning to peptides for muscle building, skin rejuvenation, and to live longer, even though the substances aren’t FDA approved. Doctors warn that none have undergone adequate clinical trials and the supposed benefits are unproven.

This alone is a reason to pre-order. Math torture!
WHY ARE YOU PUSHING THIS SO HARD?
Pre-orders mean the world. Early pre-orders open new doors for us, and for this book, and will make the whole situation better. If we can debut on the NYT Bestseller list, I will build an Alandra Sky Dreamer token deck and punish myself with math.

I think I’m gonna actively strip apart any “five color” decks in favor of fewer colors. Leaving only Sisay.
Im any case, I’m definitely taking The Ur-Dragon apart and maybe building Ureni?

My friend played a Templar deck yesterday and it inspired me to finally take apart my terrible five color assassins deck and commit to a Mardu-colored Altair deck.
I think I’m on board the “five color commanders are bad” train, finally. If for no other reason that they give me decision paralysis.

The Bond thing is so funny because Bond has never had strict continuity, it soft rebooted with every new actor until Daniel Craig, which was a hard reboot that kept Judi Dench’s M.
Either the writers know nothing about Bond, this is a publicly thing, or more likely it’s misconstrued for clicks.
