Captain Dare got to commend four Spartans in pursuit of the Oddball, but they weren't brawny enough to fistfight a brute chieftain and an elite with an energy sword (and two other banished) 😞

There was some debate as to whether her ability should cost 1 or have a big condition. It was important that this first version of this effect be simple, and there are plenty of ways to buff tokens and re-use those buffs...not to mention what future tokens we may make! #FFGStaff

I've built various Radha, Heir to Keld decks before and now that Avatar exists I wish she could be errata'ed to have Firebending 2 (so her mana is more useful). #mtg

Leia had this ability for most of development, but you could reveal any card. We kept running into a problem: it was too easy to draft a couple neutral cards and then she'd be online the rest of the game. Disclose solved the neutral problem and also made her feel more integrated to the set #FFGStaff

Some of my favorite designs are the subtle ones. C-3PO was perfect at that from the beginning: on his own, he's a very straightforward repeatable +2/+2 engine (slow, but effective). But with disclose in the set, he's also a way to have a G/H card in your hand on demand #FFGStaff

When we commissioned the art for Scanning Officer in SHD, Elia Kane was an unnamed background character. Ryan & I wanted to put her in SEC, since her storyline was full of intrigue, so Ryan pitched a mechanical callback to the first card that had her art. Now she can hit smuggle OR plot! #FFGStaff

Zohran Mamdami is an exceptional political operator with an exceptional team, fighting and winning against exceptional odds.
He, or someone just like him, will be President someday—mark my words.
Be radically optimistic. Change what you can in the world for the better.

ICE are terrorists. #abolishICE
this morning, ICE went into a Spanish language immersion daycare and took a teacher from the building in front of screaming and crying kids and parents at dropoff and the daycare had to shut down for the day (near Lane Tech, where they were yesterday). Really hoping today's "theme" is not "daycare."

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

We're all going to write pieces about what you can learn from tonight but it's actually pretty simple: The frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I didn't get to finish my MESBG game tonight because we ran out of time but man it was an absolute blast, between how lethal both sides were and how much of an absolute house the Witch King got to be as he fought off waves of warg riders being thrown at him

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed.
The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.

There will likely never be a better time to make a Law-matters card than Secrets of Power, so I tried very hard to get one into the set. Thank goodness Orn Free Taa's previous design didn't work out so I could give him this one! Also what a perfect character for a deck full of Laws #FFGStaff

No more politics staffers is ominous as hell considering the great reporting the Teen Vogue staff used to do.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Hey #mtg followers, is this commander deck Bracket1 or Bracket2? It's built according to the Bracket1 heuristics (based on theme/vibes) but it is fundamentally a control deck since it's built around planeswalkers archidekt.com/decks/415820...

In case you were wondering -- yes, legacy media HAS turned its back on its Constitutional duty to inform the public and become just one more implement in the autocrat's toolbox.
More proof . . . as if you needed it.

I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.

Ok! Educate those young men abt affirmative consent & safer sex. Make abortion & contraception free & available everywhere. Enforce sexual assault laws actually. Create media that cultivates sex positive respect & care for everyone. Get ppl who don’t suck in office.
Culture change is possible!!

I am not in any way disagreeing with you Rabbi. However with the huge number of sexless young men 18-30 is creating a social hazard.
We need to get gender relationships fixed or we'll suffer from a lot of troubles later on.

In the eyes of the establishment, there’s literally nothing Mamdani can do to prove he’s not an antisemite, and literally nothing the openly fascist trump regime can do to prove they are, up to and including intentionally dressing like literal, historical Nazis

I agree with the sentiment that the Forerunner architecture is too clean in Halo 1 Campaign Evolved, but man the complaint that the assault rifle is 32 rounds is crazy. The weapons sandbox has improved so much since 2001 and you want to abandon those improvements???
