    Did they mean to give vigilance to all earth bent lands? did several drafts and no one had a card giving that effect and yet the lands had vigilance.

    SB Book Club October - “Why nothing works - Who Killed Progress and How to Bring it Back”

    I think this is what slowed me down, it's like he wants to build a case from 3+ examples before he moves on, and I'd be fine if it was "here's a foot note to 3 other examples that are similar to this thing" But the author clearly wants to be a story teller as well as leading to a conclusion...

    Why is that surprising? She's been in the news for being unexpectedly level headed over a few issues affecting her constituents... also he loves playing up his talking to "both sides" and it probably gave him great chances to dunk on liberals and conservatives alike, his favorite area. (in...

    Magic the Gathering: Arena

    I just restarted this because I realized I can play on my phone... Dear god the speed some decks crank crap out is ridiculous! I had someone crap out something that seemed like turn 3 or 4 dropped a one shot infinite damage critter in my face that I didn't get to register before the defeat...

    No Kings Protests Feel Futile

    I think there was one reason why the coverage of the potential protest was doom and "antifa is coming to murder your grandparents" kind of stuff, because they are worried about that potential for violence. The rich have worried about civil unrest increasingly more over the years, and Trump is...

    Does he pull that off? I haven't kept a close eye on things, but the few things I've seen he doesn't put on street airs.

    Another month at Ars, another article about ISP’s being jerks [edited]

    Sure you can call it a lazy explanation but why do people do it if it doesn't work? Are you saying that these barriers to getting muni are to be laid soley at the feet of voters if they just knew enough they'd surely vote for it? What about the ones that did, but at the state level comcast had...

    Immigration and Deportation and related &@$#ery in the Trump Administration

    Interestingly enough federally and in most states political affiliation/political groups are not protected classes for title VII of civil rights act. Not that it's germaine to this particular part, but I always find it funny that discrimination against political beliefs is an issue at times...

    I mean sure, except it's like @hrpanjwani pointed out it's the greed of ISPs and Cable companies preventing competition. ars has covered it many times... just as a second example Not to mention all the state regulations comcast and others have sponsored or lobbied hard for to cause those...

    it's always crazy when one tech companies stock changes decide if things are good or not... the obsession with stock prices as an indicator of anything other than how well wealthy are doing is silly.

    Is it possible to talk to conservatives anymore?

    the only sign that this happens in the future will be if we end up with the republican and/or democrat party fracturing and a 3rd or 4th party emerging from that.

    🦄Once and Future Trump Presidency Perpetual Scandal Thread🦄

    It's still jarring to see the President of the united states in a suit wearing a bright red ball cap... god I hate that image more everytime I see it. It's a reminder of how little anything matters to Trump but his brand, and the POTUS is his brand right now.

    The response to Charlie Kirk's death and what it means for the US

    yeah it seems moot to argue about any of it, lone guy with a gun kills guy. The stuff about his bones or whatever all seem pretty strange to talk about because until people who influence thought/society or have positions of power think that, it's like "shrug alot of people say odd things"
