Part of why Netflix seemingly can't produce anything good or memorable is that "showing people exactly what they want" sucks the life out of artistic creation. No one has their life changed by a movie created in a lab to appeal to their exact marketable demographic.

@maro254.bsky.social Hey Mark! Quick question - do you generally view cards milling their caster as beneficial, or detrimental? Do you think that's consistent, or on a card-by-card basis? Thinking about cards that mill but do nothing else, like Stitcher's Supplier
