Mm. There are certainly points where I'm watching the nth person play Stickfingers for x=2 to reanimate that Final Fantasy guy and create a hasty Ulamog token and I wonder why I'm bothering with my janky Zurgo deck.
I'm glad they eventually wised up and banned Ancient Tomb and Chrome Mox, at least.

I won't say which government department I work for, for obvious reasons, but "embrace AI and grease the wheels for privatisation" is also very much the vision for the future at the national level.

Cal is one of my favourite Star Wars characters to date. I'm really hoping Respawn stick the landing with the third game.
