I want to go on record to publicly thank Reid Duke, Javier Dominguez, Stefan Schuetz, and Masahide Moriyama for giving me their insights for this article. It is a true privilege to have access to such thoughtful and smart people. magic.gg/news/inside-the-tea…

As a UK fan of the New York Mets, I can reasonably expect to watch games on delay, sometimes by several days, without getting the result spoiled. But I hear some fans are disappointed by our start to the season. I don't get it. 7-4 seems ok. @Top8Games @efropoker

The single greatest thing I’ve ever seen on the internet. Simply typed ‘mathematics’ on a second hand bookseller website… I was tempted, but it was the last 67p that broke me.

Being self-employed has challenges, but I'm watching Euros soccer, England test cricket, Wimbledon, and last night's Mets game simultaneously, all whilst 'working', doing Magic stuff for PT Atlanta. Important to live the wins, and not just wait to look back. Very lucky.

I'm trying to track down a commentary clip. Marshall and Ced in the booth, not a PT, almost certainly 2020. Muxus is the key card, it whiffs entirely, and Cedric has a huge giggling fit and a great Shakespearean line, 'Muxus giveth...Muxus taketh away.' Someone find me this pls!

Saw t-shirt: 'Hold on. Let me overthink this.' Me: 'great, I'll get that.' 36 versions on page 1. Can't decide. Issues: font, color, spacing, periods, commas, material, price, manufacturer, country, delivery cost, wait time, sizing chart, capitalization, italics to name but 14.

Bought a new car yesterday (very ordinary but lovely). Got assigned reg number ML74 UWG. I now own the Bantmobile.

Richhagonmtg.bsky.social Found a positive way to finish here. Saw Wicked today. 2hr34 run time. 8 seconds I didn’t much care for. One of the great entertainment experiences ever (as a deep fan of the theatrical show). Absolutely glorious. See you over ‘there’. Hugs to all.

In 1993, with tix to the Trent Bridge test match v Australia, I bought a corked hat and an Aussie shirt, confident that England were about to be hammered. Spent all day in silence, getting much-deserved abuse, as Graham Thorpe hit an unbeaten century on debut. Outstanding, RIP.

One of my more catastrophic ideas: playing cricket in the same team as my son in the Lincolnshire Sunday league this season. My poor, poor body. Season goals: at least one 0 not out, and no hospital trips.

Since ‘Christmas’ is the word we use in our home for the holiday celebrations, a very happy Christmas to you all. And all the other holiday words too.

Very sad for friends going through a day quite different than they were expecting. Hugs to all still at WOTC, and to all moving on.

Out on day one. Conscious for less than two hours before a deadly supermarket trip.

cambridge.eu.qualtrics.com/j… A friend of mine is doing some very cool music research. Would be great if some of you could take the time to help. Cheers!

As sports tv weekends go, this isn't bad: 4x Snooker, 5x Rugby, 3x Cricket, 3x F1, 3x NFL, 6x MLB. My poor Skybox.

Of the many reasons to get into D&D, my current No.1 is the opportunity to have a combat specialist shop called, 'Joan'. Or, to give it the full title, 'Joan Armour Trading'.
