Hello Magic Community! I’m reaching out to see if there are any remote part time to full time work out there! I have experience in writing, editing, and proofreading. Dm me with any opportunities! I had to quit my job because of disability and remote work is the only work I can do.

THE FREAKING MOUNTAIN GOATS ARE PLAYING MAGIC
drafting for the first time in forever. pray for me i’m hopeless at draft
January 17, 2026 at 7:15 PM
Well, well, well, if it isn't the consequences of my own actions
Me, double sleeving: I am such a responsible magic player

Me, taking apart decks: well this sucks
January 17, 2026 at 7:14 PM
I likely can't go, but you all need to go if you can! It looks fun as hell!

I don’t think this really solves the problem…I’m not anti UB I’m anti endless content for standard
Good(?) news, Maro has recently said that the current rate of UB sets isn't sustainable in the super long term. The number of properties that make sense as full Magic sets is a limited resource.

Bad news, once we're used to 6 sets a year they'll just shift the numbers of UB vs UW.

Facts! I shouldn’t have given into the gloom
My Magic hot take for the weekend. Ignore the TMNT cards. Stay off the subreddit, do not engage. Just go and enjoy the incredible set that is Lorwyn Eclipsed. A bunch of folks put a lot of love into this set, and it deserved its time to shine.

Boooooooooo

Listen to yourself. What is happening to people?
Men are more likely than women to report feeling disconnected and not part of any community, and a quarter of young American men report feeling lonely.

Fantasy leagues, meanwhile, invite constant participation in group texts, watch parties and even punishments. https://wapo.st/45fSTeh

When a self proclaimed “comic fan” says any phrase I always know I’m about to have a very annoying conversation
When a comic fan says the phrase “no kill rule” to me I always know I’m about to have a very annoying conversation

This is exactly what the UB haters have been saying and honestly I’ve feel my proUB heart wavering
This is kinda funny but incredibly upsetting.... like after so long bringing us back to Lorwyn just to have this junk happen. Annoying.

THIS IS WHY I COUKD NEVER BUILD GOBLINS. Krenkie is too good to ignore for another deck. It’s Krenko monopoly
last night i started brewing Grub and well,

I've been called a clout chaser today

I've been told Im projecting today

Let me give you a history lesson from the woman who made a corporate career specifically to try to make the world kinder to trans folk and was cast aside when the work starting taking shape.

Frfr and I’m usually a WOTC shill according to my comment section
taking the stamp off the prerelease promo is the most joyless decision wotc ever made
January 17, 2026 at 3:04 PM
AHHHHHH I GOT BODIED AT MY
PRERELEASE. I tried to be cute and do blight and death triggers and got destroyed
January 17, 2026 at 2:52 PM
It’s mainly people who haven’t experienced culture personally that want to destroy it. So much could be solved with mandatory experience of culture.
I realise I'm just a freak, but living in a multicultural city is the best thing of all time, it's just the best possible human experience and i can not understand why anyone on earth would be like "weve got to destroy this"
January 17, 2026 at 2:50 PM
Oh my gosh. When was this? Does anyone know. Was it yesterday? Fucking Lorwyn Eclipse prerelease getting bodied would make me so sad
.....over 50 cards got leaked from TMNT due to the prerelease printing error..... 😳
I feel bad for anyone who was going to preview a card for the set.
