The hangout made it out of the discord chat! Since I am in New York for this wedding week of sweet friends, @2tone.bsky.social and I got to meet up in person for the first time with @ridiculous.chat. Things may be tough, but they are made always lighter with dear humans and good food.

i am honestly too overwhelmed to know who i'm supposed to be mad at and why, but the great thing about 2025 is the large variety of options and lack of incorrect choices

mamdani is gonna implement shandalar law. if you want to add new cards to your deck, you have to wander the map and look for random wizard duels
Mamdani gonna implement Shaaloani law. All disputes settled via shootout duels using non-lethal rounds with all the authenticity of a spaghetti western directed by Japanese anime enthusiasts.
(This is a timely Final Fantasy XIV reference)

Mamdani is going to implement Shannara law. Everything will be extremely derivative of Tolkien and predictable.

I’ll be honest @riftbound.riotgames.com might be a perfected version of commander.
This game is so insanely well designed, I’m going to do a deep dive on why you should try this out as a commander.

Reading this thread while in my 3rd airport in 2 days (on my way to a 4th) and whether you travel a lot or not, it's an amazing read.
Some things I've learned in my first few weeks:
1) There is a grey market candy swapping racket between janitors, TSA agents, CSRs, and everyone else who has to stand someplace all day at the airport.
Hi-chews, sour candies, and gummy anything are in highest demand.
