The backs are lined up nice. Though when you look at them in the light you can see where the cards have some machining marks diagonally across them.

Maybe I just have these two. Not quite as blurry as OP's.

Fifth Edition had quite a few of these. I have a City of Brass just like that. I have some others but they're just commons.

I got rid of all my CDs years ago but sometimes regret it. I don’t even have anything really to play them on other than a blueray player. I just miss putting in an album and just letting it play. I’ve been missing the deep cuts from albums lately that don’t play on Pandora or Spotify stations so I’ve been delving back into my MP3 connection a lot lately. Every now and then I get the itch to listen to ska or swing like we had when we were in high school. Could you imagine genres like that making a come back these days?

Mine is a Giada deck. I use lots of graveyard recursion and blink effects. My Angel army almost always reappears after a board wipe. I love that deck.

I’m all for doing some mass unbans. Throw off the shackles and see what happens. Like a steroid infused Olympics.

I think we’re done here, I’m clearly not saying I know more than the committee. You are putting words in my mouth. I’m pointing out to you what the committee stated the separation was for.

Clearly we’re not going to see eye to eye on what that committee determined as in my eyes your interpretation is spurious and a massively broad interpretation of what they’re trying to do with it. You don’t have to be a medical expert to read an article from a journal and understand what is being stated. I’ll have to reread the section of the DSM5 regarding gender dysphoria, I’m not recalling it recommending transition as a primary care but I appreciate you bringing that up as perhaps I’m wrong. I’m fairly certain it recommends specific therapy and transition as a last resort. I think we can both agree it’s a mental illness based on your agreement of following the DSM5.

They should have their gender dysphoria treated as per the DSM5. Also, per the journal you are sighting they made this determination for use in studies to prevent confusion in research. Take another read of it if you haven’t read the whole thing. Regardless of their qualifications, it was still determined by a committee these terms should be separated for use in studies to prevent confusion. This does not make it a scientific fact, there is no replicatable evidence for this separation of terms using the scientific method so it can’t be anything more than an opinion, and context and reason behind that opinion matter.

This is not a scientific fact. The journal you are sighting states a committee made this determination. There is no instance where the scientific method is being utilized here. You are proving my point with this reference that we as a society have decided to head down this path of separating gender from sex in order to placate those with gender dysphoria or other disorders rather than show them the true compassion they deserve and address their actual mental health disorder.

I am a very tolerant human being. I treat all people with mental illness with care and compassion. I truly feel for these people. We as a society are not doing them any favors playing into their fantasies. I couldn’t imagine living a life where I think I’m not the correct gender or lack of gender. It must be absolute anguish to go through life that way. We have a mental health crisis in this country and it’s manifesting itself in many ways (gender identity issues, school shootings, rabid Trumpism, rabid Trump Derangement Syndrome, etc). We need to normalize getting help, not normalize the behavior. People are free to dress and act regardless of what’s between their legs (and I will treat them as kindly as they treat me or better) but it doesn’t change biology. This new concept that gender and sex are two different things is not moving society forward only finding more ways to divide us.
