If I could bestow ONE piece of advice to Commander players as to how to make your games more fun. It's this: Switch your feel-bad permanents to feel-bad spells. Run Plagiarize over Notion Thief.

Haven't tweeted in AGES but these folks are worth listening to and the advice is real.

@celestelabedz My cat Jimmithy thanks you for this timely reminder, he loves and zooms equally

Still laugh/cry funny no matter how many times I watch it. Still thinking of every defect sent back as “tester bug”

Basically dude tricks death into a trap so no one will ever die again and then when people realize that death is just a natural part of life dude lets death go free again but dude is forced to live for eternity as punishment.

Whenever a bad thing we don’t like happens and people start talking about outlawing/banning a thing, I remember the parable of Death and the Soldier.

Amen sir. Let’s all take a deep breath and remember that shorting provides, like it or not, a really important function in the market.

Many years ago, I told my friend Corey I wouldn't learn to play Magic because "I have an obsessive personality and that shit will be a problem." And now I work for a Magic company and make a Magic podcast and tweet exclusively about Magic and am on the CAG. So... I was right.

This encapsulates every unintended design consequence of the last decade @mollywood @kairyssdal @karaswisher @lsv linkedin.com/posts/activity…

Love it - @monteiro 's classic "Fuck you, pay me" talk comes to mind.

@rfedoruk Whenever possible we should try to work in a scope as it reduces janky interactions with global, with other apps, makes it uninstallable, supports managed development, and defaults methods to least access across all scopes (forcing declarations between them)

Dumb #ServiceNow question: Is scoped HR app the evolution or origin of the HR solution? We shouldn't be moving OUT of the scoped app back to non-scoped, yeah?

@rfedoruk Yeah the scooped version came after internal PS helped a few different customers build out a solution and then around Geneva the official app came to be right around the time scopes became a thing and was one of the first scoped apps along with the rebuild of GRC

@rfedoruk @servicenow Hey sir, it was a pleasure having you along for the ride this week, and yeah, I like to think we're not so much having a class, but an awesome podcast episode.

My single best VILT course experience to date, and we've barely started. @ServiceNow's Ben Forrest #ServiceNow Advanced Performance Analytics #WishYouWereHere

It wasn't until I said the name out loud that I then wondered if there was another subtle hidden joke here: Kyrial? Kai + Arial? If it's really Kyrial Display _and_ that's really the reason this typeface was chosen... OMG! Was that an Easter Egg @mollywood snuck in there?!

There's a real uncanny valley feeling that hits me if I look too closely at the characters - they're almost but not quite what I expect from a san serif. After digging through specimen books online I stumbled across Kyrial Display by Mostar Design. motyfo.com/fonts-library/…

Hey @mollywood and @kairyssdal, not much is able to get me back on the twitters these days, but I _must_ know about the typeface on the #makemesmart t-shirt. At first I found it jarring in an Arial sort of way, but it wasn't quite Arial, which then led me down a rabbit hole.

Hey @lsv can I get a Flavor Judge ruling on Direct Current? Should pointing out how the Tesla coils depicted in the artwork are powered by Alternating Current cause the spell to fizzle or reduce damage to zero?

It feels pretty good to wake up and see headlines like this before logging into work and seeing the big boss on the feature story. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ twitter.com/servicenow/sta…

@christhile would love to hear @mountain_goats “Amy AKA Spent Gladiator 1” or frankly, anything by them PLEASE

Skating the shopping trolleys back to their bins in the Home Depot parking lot will never not be fun, whether I’m 8 or 80.
