Fully convinced at this point that The Minecraft Movie is the Gen Z Rocky Horror Picture Show.
I just watched the Minecraft Movie and it is extremely good and the theater was the exact right amount of rowdy and kids were doing callbacks to the screen and singing along with Jack Black.
The whole theater yelling “CHICKEN JOCKEY” alone was worth the price of admission.

On a full flight this morning from PHL to BOS in a middle seat(!!) when the aisle and middle seat across from me don't check in and everyone gets to spread out.
Everything's coming up Milhouse.

Cube people with multiple cubes: do you have different lands for each cube you have or do you just have one lands station to use, figuring that you're never using more than one cube at a time? #mtgcube

I took a stab at my first cube design: The Red Box. It's an homage to the Red Box from Dungeons and Dragons, which was my first exposure to D&D in the 80s. The cube mainly uses cards from AFR and CLB and is a Peasant cube, focused on combat and fair magic. #mtgcube

So excited for The Salt Box this weekend, especially since I was able to snag a last second ticket for my son who's home for Spring Break! #mtgcube

Cube builders, which method for new cubes do you prefer?
A. Carefully consider each card before adding them to the pool of cards for the cube in the hope of minimal editing afterwards
B. Throw everything that even has a small chance of making it into the pool and then start cutting massively after

Starting off @vertexmtg.bsky.social with a 1-2 performance with the Bodleian Cube. All of the games were close but I still felt like the deck wasn't very resilient. Had a lot of fun in all of the games!

So much this. I am in Education and AI is destroying students left and right. Stop pretending it is anything more than an incorrect Google.
It's funny, really.
Almost 2 years ago, I went to a conference for information professionals (librarians and the like).
AI was practically a rallying cry.

For years I've suspected the conventional way of shuffling cubes was not very effective. I did a detailed analysis, including simulations of common methods, to understand it better and come up with an efficient strategy: the Broadcast Shuffle.

Is there another card with so many different arts and every single one of them is a certified banger?

This is very cool! Now I'm even more excited to go (even though I have no real expectations of winning the cube!)
In line with our tradition from last year, we'll be giving a cube to the champion as part of our prizing! We've put together a clone of @myagic.bsky.social 's Fae Cube, which will be included in the event and will go home with the winner!
