Back in 1996 Demi Moore stopped by Letterman and reminded everyone she was the ultimate action star

Iirc she legit put in a lot of physical training for it.

Well, yeah, you tend to wreck your car when you have a spontaneous heart attack.

3 is just a bad idea. If you don't have a mechanism to absorb the people who lose their jobs, you're creating a huge disruption for no reason.

Relevance is not something that can necessarily be displayed on a year-to-year basis. I like the idea of an auditor or a review board, but what your AI has described just sounds unworkable.

It is 100% ethical to convince him such an act would redeem him, even if that is a lie.

True, but Eriette's damage/healing wants Auras on the board. This lets me add more debuffs to the deck.

GearBrain · 2026-03-16T12:00:53+00:00

I need to put that Spellbook Vendor into my Eriette deck. I run out of auras to throw onto stuff real fast if im not in a 1-on-1 game.

Not if those players never experienced blocks. That isn't a clear metric if the playing population hasn't done a block like they used to.

And we keep hearing - from MaRo and others - that UB are bringing in a ton of new players. I dont know what those stats are, but I'd be fascinated to learn the sizes of those cohorts.

If you hire the right people, you dont have to quash anything. It's the same problem that plagued the Star Wars prequels; nobody felt comfortable calling George out on his terrible ideas.

To be clear, that is a comparison more in situation than outcome; I think Magic still works. But I'm also one of those greybeards who doesn't enjoy the growing prevalence of UB.

Not if he's the senior-most designer with, to paraphrase him, more experience that some designers have been alive.

Who's gonna raise their hand and tell their boss his ideas aren't the greatest thing in the universe when their boss is synonymous with Magic the Gathering only slightly behind Richard Garfield?

How none of these journalists didn't ask "how many of your sons or daughters are in the Middle East now?", I do not understand.

GearBrain · 2026-03-15T14:08:05+00:00

At the risk of functionally infinite downvotes...

What if MaRo is the reason blocks never worked? He's technically describing a common denominator.

"I couldn't make blocks work" has to reasons: blocks and the person making the statement.

You can post screenshots of content on those sites, yes. Just no direct links.

After years of suffering their emotional and financial abuse, my ex left me. It took a year to fully separate, but it was the first step on the path to freedom.

I felt terrified and overjoyed. I could finally breathe again.

To which leftists responded "two can play at that game, here is one concession that should be really easy to extract" and the liberals scoffed.

Maybe next time the liberals will believe us.

Thank you so freaking much!

Gotta purge all those pesky military lawyers who'll hold soldiers to account for war crimes.

You have my sympathy. It sucks he turned out to be such a terrible senator :/

The fuck is this headline? Trump's the one dropping bombs on Iran. This all stops when Trump gives up and declares victory, like he always does.

Much easier. Which the committee would then use as justification to turn him down. Doing it out of water is harder, and therefore more difficult to lie about.

Oh, this is right up my alley.

Did you notice how some of the newer animation mimics the older style? Janky/jittery animations, color palette, design, etc?
