This was my pinned tweet forever and I forgot to repost it here. Two comics from OrcishLibrarian illustrated by @letsongakemi.bsky.social. They’re several years old now but still relevant.

A comic with multiple panels featuring Chandra and Jaya the text reads

DID YOU
EVER WORRY
THAT YOU WOULDN'T
FIT IN?
WHEN YOU
WERE YOUNGER, I MEAN?
WHEN YOU
REALIZED YOU WERE...
...DIFFERENT?
KID, I STILL DON'T FIT IN. NOBODY FITS IN.
JUST FIGURE OUT WHERE YOU WANT TO BE AND BURN YOURSELF A HOLE TO MATCH

Multiple panel comic with Chandra and Nissa and the text

I USED TO THINK THAT
- IF I GOT
STRONGER,
IF I GOT
OLDER -
THINGS WOULD
START TO
MAKE SENSE.
NONE OF IT MAKES ANY SENSE!

BUTTT
DOESN'T
DOES IT?
NONE OF IT DOES...
THIS DOES.

Zack, you’ve got to stop doing this to me. I already have too many Rakdos decks and I just got that Grenzo from you.

Out to lunch and they have the local news on (owned by Sinclair of course).

They just repeated the lie that Trump is sending troop to dangerous cities to make them safer without any commentary on the inaccuracy of that. Almost made me lose my lunch.

I really need the Portland frogs to expand. Sure bring in the other inflatables but the imagery of those frogs is working. Especially if you can share videos of ICE literally pepper balling a fucking inflatable

Sharing the priest story from Chicago with imagery/videos as well

5 color commanders on theme lately seem to be linear build arounds which can be great for certain creature types and also feels kind of diluted

MTG Color Pie (Robby) @mtgcolorpie.bsky.social · 22h

I would prefer to stop seeing 5 color commanders when it comes to themes.

Make them 4 color commanders. I know players will want to "play with all of their cards" but it's really deluding 5 color Cmdrs.

It's ok to make players have to choose. Even very casual/new players.

I get it here, but still

Brian Kibler @bmkibler.bsky.social · 23h

I can't say I really understand the point of putting partner on a five color commander.

Let people make actual choices rather than just getting everything.

Great for stationing. I don’t know how relevant that is in standard though.

I think these are the worst basic lands they've ever produced. No shade on the artists, they did what was asked of them by Wizards. They're just ugly and hard to see the mana symbols at a glace. The only saving grace is the background colors match at least. I'm hoping I don't see them often.

Our heroes in a half shell can't fight on an empty stomach! These flavorful full-art pizza basic lands will give you the fuel to cast some #MTGxTMNT spells.

This image depicts five full art lands.
From left to right:
Plains. This illustration shows a three fingered hand picking up a slice of pizza with banana slices arranged into the shape of a sun as toppings.

Island. This illustration shows a three fingered hand holding up a slice of pizza with sardines and an onion in the shape of a water drop as toppings.

Swamp. This illustration shows a furred hand with pointed claw-like nails grabbing a slice of pizza with a mushroom in the shape of a skull as a topping,

Mountain. This illustration shows a slice of pizza held on the blade of a sai, the peperoni on the pizza is in the shape of a fire ball.

Forest. This illustration shows a three fingered hand holding a slice of pizza in the palm of his hand, the veggie pizza has a prominent broccoli in the shape of a tree as a topping.

Along the bottom of the image reads: "Pizza Lands".

@mtgcritical.bsky.social asked me to paint a Fleem cosplaying as Niv Mizzet. I twisted it slightly into adorable post trick or treating Fleem in a Niv Mizzet costume. He turned out pretty cute.

OMG wait they're threatening to fire "problem child" air controllers? So... We'll have even less of them once this shutdown ends?

A former DOGE staffer developed an AI tool that hallucinated the size of Veterans Affairs contracts.

For example, it concluded that more than a thousand deals were each worth $34 million, when in fact some were for as little as $35,000.

DOGE Developed Error-Prone AI Tool to “Munch” Veterans Affairs Contracts

We obtained records showing how a Department of Government Efficiency staffer with no medical experience used artificial intelligence to identify which VA contracts to kill. “AI is absolutely the wron...
