Playing in a puzzle hunt today (MIT Mystery Hatch), and it's always fun to go through the team names. We're XOXO, Gossip Squirrel. So far favorites include 10,000 Onions and don't tell my wife I'm puzzling on our honeymoon.

Lots of fireworks out here in the Seattle area. Cats don’t love it, but the humans are having fun.

“Could anyone go for some more cheese curds, or should we wait for the top of the next inning?”

I remember watching the end of that 18-inning Mariners playoff game while at a Kraken game. I have tickets for the Kraken tomorrow night…

"I saw you from across the bar and found your vibe human and frail. The thought of digging it is laughable."
Worf has found a situation amusing and laughs and laughs and laughs.

I don’t think playing the puck was that bad of a call—he was facing a 2-on-0 otherwise—but hesitating and not hustling to get there doomed him.

Admittedly, I’ve never seen an empty-net goal in OT before. #VegasBorn

I just had to apologize to my cats. The yelp I yelped.

Trying to remember a rules gag we did a long time ago where we put a three-card combo as separate glossary entries, where each one pointed at the next card in the combo. Does any of this ring a bell? #WotCstaff

I am generally not a Seattle sports fan, (although I do like the Mariners), but the DUMP 61 HERE guy may be the greatest thing I’ve ever seen.

I’m sure we’ll be treated to yet another round of unoriginal, intellectually dishonest jokes about being ready for game 1 of the playoffs…

All subtypes belong specifically to one or more card types, so if something loses all those card types, the subtypes go with it. We don’t really want nonartifacts with artifact types, for example. System kind of rests on this, so I wouldn’t expect it to change. #WotCstaff
