Holy shit, just learned about the typewriter art of Montserrat Alberich Escardívol, a Catalan typist. Using an extra wide typewriter and 180 color ribbons, she built up elaborate images from simple characters like 'm' and '.' and ';'. Here is her typewritten painting of the Cathedral of Barcelona.

I'm kinda shocked that Forge was not touched, but I find it difficult to complain that we are FINALLY seeing some much needed movement on Legacy bans.
Tamiyo and The One Ring feel like they are on extremely borrowed time, but they'll be a bit more manageable without Reanimator and Nadu in the room.

Crude, derogatory, misogynistic comments have no place in society, let alone at a Magic event. Construing this ban as a persecution of political belief and a 1A violation is a stupefying level of bad-faith.
@cardtitan.bsky.social did the right thing. When people show you who they are, believe them.

A group of losers put together an open letter to @cardtitan.bsky.social criticizing their decision to ban Joe Brennan from Eternal Weekend this year.
If you, like me, support their decision, TELL THEM. Message them, email them, show them that you support their decision to make EW safer.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.
As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.
End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

This was Vin Scully's call of Henry Aaron's 715th home run. Tonight Major League Baseball cut off the first sentence, starting it with the "What a marvelous moment" part because they don't want to anger the white supremacists who run our country and of whom Rob Manfred is an ardent supporter.

Oops all spells has remained tier 0 or 1 through metas with UB reanimator with grief, UB reanimator with frog, UB reanimator with troll, UB reanimator with Tamiyo, and to this day. The deck is always the most broken thing in Legacy and just avoids bans by being hard to play.

gonna post a bunch of thoughts on the legacy B&R.
I think the most important note to keep in mind is legacy in 2025 is inherently a casual format. There are competitive events, but it is a format defined by casual interest. Without weeklies and paper play, legacy dies.
This B&R ignores this fact.

The NYT's anti-trans fear mongering was cited in a Supreme Court briefing that stripped away the rights of trans kids. They need to be fully blacklisted by queer people and their allies. Don't work for them. Don't use them for book press. Don't speak with them for stories. They made their bed.

If everyone in that crowd in Savannah was masked, the cops would not be arresting a lone person trying to protect themselves from Covid. Put on a medical mask - an n95 or kn95 - protect yourself, protect the resistance, protect the vulnerable. Easy hero shit.

UnitedHealth secretly pressured nurses to change patients' records to include DNRs (Do Not Resuscitate) without their consent, so those patients would die instead of being saved with medical interventions that could cost UnitedHealth money.
This is murder.
