Hello to all Bluesky followers.

I've set my own Linktree style page up at trick.is, sharing where to find me online.

You can directly visit my personal blog at www.trickjarrett.com
Well, it's time I share some exciting news! I am going to be starting a new adventure and, after nearly 14 years, I'll be leaving Wizards. Tomorrow will be my last day.

I've written something up on my blog (and screen capped it on this post): www.trickjarrett.com/sharing-some...

Another species no longer on the global Endangered list:
Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae).

A few decades after a Star Trek movie where the central conflict was the total extinction of the humpback, their numbers are rising fast enough to put them at "Least Concern" on the IUCN Red List.

New B&R article just dropped. Lots of stuff to talk about on the tabletop and digital fronts, as well as some notes from @thequietfish.bsky.social on updates to design heuristics.

That's a wrap!

Thanks to all of you, Cascadian Gamers raised $47,271.87, good enough for 8th place of 2,525 teams raising money this year.

I had a personal best this year, raising $12,000 for Seattle Children's Hospital, $2,500 more than my previous best.

We could not have done it without you.

I often think about how the government hounded Aaron Swartz to death for scraping Jstor, yet all these AI companies scraped almost literally all of human knowledge (and continue to do so even when they're told to stop) and have had no criminal consequences.

Sounders go up 2-0 in the first 8 minutes of their final game of this Playoff series.

You love to see it.

Now, please, Sounders... don't give up any howlers.

The Seattle Torrent (our new PWHL team) should have been the Seattle Metropolitans.

The first team to win the Stanley Cup. How cool would that have been, to bring the team back to life??

Post you from a different era.

I think this was 2001, Fellowship of the Ring's opening night. But it might have been a few years later.

I hadn't intended to do a Nanowrimo in November, but this idea has persisted and after talking with @alexwhite.bsky.social earlier this week I've got the juices flowing and 1500 words of a first draft so far.
Toying with a story idea about a traveling circus/festival/entertainment ship which travels space and visits remote mining operations, etc. The cross between a Casino + Cruise ship + A food truck. It shows up at a remote location and stays for a few weeks before traveling to the next destination.

Does anyone know of a Magic app which does card scanning and outputs it in an exportable fashion? Specifically for an Android phone.

I'll put Storm at 5.5 or the new 6 on this list. Did not mean to overlook them!

My biggest issue is that Seattle rarely gets storms and so the name is fun but not super resonant for me.
My personal ranking of best to worst for Seattle sports team names:

1. @seattlekraken.com
2. @mariners.com
3. @reignfc.com
4. @soundersfc.com

They unanimously acquitted sandwich guy, even though this was probably misdemeanor assault. I know I joke a lot about this case, but this jury nullification is actually really embarrassing for Pirro/Trump/Bondi.
What if…they actually acquit him? Lol

I was just doing my morning scroll on TikTok and my day is ruined.

I stopped for a video of a Gen X and a Millenial talking about various things from their childhood and seeing what the other recognized.

And then I see who posted the video.

I am thinking about making a Momir cube again. And again I am faced with "what is the minimum size"? How small can I make this thing to facilitate 1v1?

I think it's pretty clear, Zohran Mamdani won the NYC Mayoral Election because he's a Sounders fan.
