We're excited this month to host a COSTUME CONTEST! Come through in your scariest costume, your funniest joke, or that one niche film reference that no one else will get! We'll have prizes for our favorite costumes AND we'll be raffling off some goodies throughout the night!

The last cube we're featuring before our Cube in Solidarity event TOMORROW (!!!) is @ahnkili.bsky.social's TINY LEADERS cube, recently featured at our last Queer Magic Night! All cards cost 3 or less, and your deck is led by a legendary creature in the command zone. What's your #P1P1 from here?

CUBE IN SOLIDARITY is TOMORROW!!! Today's your last chance to RSVP and guarantee a spot for two rounds of cube in support of a great cause.

Rally together and play some cube in support of worker power! You can RSVP here: forms.gle/6gtnNtTAHbsG...

Collective actions get the goods! TCGUnion-CWA has secured a closing agreement with eBay for a significantly improved severance package for TCGPlayer workers affected by the recent firings. As such, we’re shifting the focus of our fundraising to NY Starbucks Workers United, a union of Starbucks employees in NYC fighting for a safer and more equitable workplace. Rally together and play some cube in support of worker power!
