  • Which of the Strixhaven precons are you most interested in?

    Jump

  • Good to know! I’ve yet to goldfish any of the decks yet. I just liked Lorehold’s style.

    I’ve been wanting to build an aristocrats deck already and the Witherbloom deck contains a lot of cards I’ve already been eyeing. Do, I’ll maybe pick that one up.

    I’ve read that the Quandrix deck is busted out of the box, but the whole +1/+1 counters thing isn’t really my thing.

  • I played WoW during this event. It was honestly one of my favorite gaming memories. It was so fun turning all the auctioneers and flight masters into zombies and reading everyone cry about it on the forums. Also, I liked that as a zombie, Horde and Alliance could communicate with each other. It was just a really fun and unique experience.

  • Give Cyberpunk 2077 a try. I thought it was amazing. I may have cried at the ending…

  • I am only now discovering the sheer addictiveness of Sid Meier's Civilization.

    Jump

  • I think my favorite Civilization game is actually Civilization Revolution. It is a casualized console release, but I feel it has just the right amount of complexity to be a really fun, chill game. Also, I like going for an economic victory in that game.

  • For me it's mostly a lot of 80's post-punk and synth pop type of music (think Depeche Mode, The Cure, New Order, Bauhaus, etc.) I just associate that music with a time in my life when I was young and carefree. Feels good man.

  • I teach tweens at a middle school, but don’t have children of my own. The school I work at is in a low-income area of a deeply red state in the US.

    Here are some of my observations:

    Many of these kids are legit addicted to their phones and short-form media. (But who isn’t in this day and age?)

    I am concerned about the type of content boys are being fed. Lots to very young Andrew Tate fans and such. I overhear a lot of misogynistic or racist ideas being discussed very casually. Despite the outliers, I think many of my students are just baseline more understanding of other races, those that identify as LGBTQ+, and more aware of their emotions. Interracial relationships and friendships are common. Looking back, the 90s (when I grew up) was rife with casual racism and hate.

    Some of the girls are shockingly vain. My school uses iPads and these kids will just stare at themselves in the camera non-stop. It’s kind of weird.

    Social media definitely fuels a lot of dumb pranks and idiotic behavior around the school. (Again, this isn’t an issue specific to teens.)

    The learning gap between the high achievers and low achievers is staggering. I have wonderfully bright students as well as students that are functionally illiterate at 12-13 years old. This is more a failure of an education system than a fault of the kids though.

    These kids seem nihilistic/apathetic in a way I don’t remember me or my peers being at that age.

    All-in-all, I’m remain cery hopeful of these kids, but their addiction to technology and the kind of content they get served by the algorithms is very concerning. I can’t imagine going through life without much of a formal education and building your entire worldview around social media.
