Escape From Capital City

$80 is what congresspeople are given by taxpayers per DAY for food.

Happy Halloween!

May you have your 15 minutes of fame today.

FUCKING PLEASE!!!

Almost back to the days when it was just Caw Blade and Valakut.

The existence of this photograph (which is a real photo of a real person at a Mamdani campaign event) is enough to establish for me that voters writ large have absolutely no grasp of what policy is or how any given policy impacts their lives. It's all vibes.

I miss the old days when we would all agree that a drunken former Fox News host should not be allowed to unilaterally bomb boats in international waters.

I miss the days when folks would agree that without proof, that is a war crime.

4 more boats bombed today. More than 50 people dead.

Great picture

It had the absolute highest print run among the SLs this time around.

Twice as many Norse foil sets available vs the monored GoW set.

9,199 total. The next highest printing was Last of US 1 with 6,669.

Property people like "Prices are down 3% in your area. Now's a great time to buy."

It's like, bitch, houses that used to be 60k are still 250k. Houses that used to he 150k are still 800k.

The average interest rate is still over 6.25%. GTFO with your 3%.

Imagine thinking that a communist country is not "the left" such that leftists supporting them would constitute horseshoe theory.

Or if that somehow isn't what's intended, this is worded incredibly poorly.

Yikes.

It's odd to me that so many people are banking on "new players are wrong about this, so let's change the game to make them right" in arguments on this subject.

New players are just wrong about a lot of things in MtG because the game is complex. This change would make things moreso needlessly.

If you want to talk slippery slope, talk to the guy that's proposing doing away with color identity entirely.

And yet I am now seeing other people talking about doing away with color identity entirely and cards becoming a color because they make a token of that color.

It's a Pandora's Box.

I'm glad other people are acknowledging how incredibly unserious so many of the opinions in favor of the change are.

It just needlessly complicates things for no good reason. There's nothing wrong with hybrid mana the way it is now.

The point wasn't at all slippery slope fallacy, but okay.

I'd say color identity is very much in line with the notion of Commanders and Command Zones.

Something that didn't exist before created specifically for the format.

Singleton is also a made up concept against the rules of the game. Also stupid.

Time to allow 4 copies of all cards with no color restrictions.

Also "Commanders". Stupid abominations against Garfield. They're gone.

Definitely. White pip. Has the word 'black' written on it. What else could it possibly be?

White Knight is a black card now, everyone.

Just because you don't share an opinion doesn't mean everyone on the other side of it is overreacting.

Too many. Lose more 😁

2 continued) Opening up to hybrid will ensure that we see more of the multicolor staples that we already see frequently, and less of the fringe monocolor cards thay we already see infrequently.

Printing new cards ensures we see new cards.
