@raginglevine.com Question with a creature type update: While there are no new creature types in FRA, Traxos was updated to a Dragon with newer versions? Will the older Traxos receive creature types errata? (Along with other dragon engines?) Thanks for all the work over the years.
Traxos, Scourge Eternal
{4}
Legendary Artifact Creature — Dragon Construct
Trample
Traxos doesn’t untap during your untap step.
Whenever you cast an artifact or creature spell, untap Traxos.
Its orders, ancient. Its advance, ponderous. Its threat, undeniable.
5/4

{3}{U}
Legendary Artifact Creature — Dragon Construct
This spell costs {2} less to cast if you’ve cast a noncreature spell this turn.
Flying, vigilance
Prowess (Whenever you cast a noncreature spell, this creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn.)
“Tolaria has stood for a thousand years. You’re looking at why.”

Legendary Artifact Creature — Construct
Trample
Traxos enters tapped and doesn’t untap during your untap step.
Whenever you cast a historic spell, untap Traxos. (Artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas are historic.)

From a distance, dormant dragon engines can be mistaken for harmless statues. By the time you get close enough to spot the scorch marks, it’s too late.

I had the honor of meeting Sheldon once at SGC Con Richmond. He was a gracious man. And while I didn't have a chance to play a game with him we talked a little about the Commander philosophy and I got to express my gratitude at it making me the friends I have. I endeavor to half as a good a man.

I left the Church years ago. I can’t go back. I do not demand that the Church change for me. But when the Holy Father says stuff like this I feel so connected to the depths of my faith, to the part of the Church that I did not and cannot leave, and I am so happy to feel that way

There’s poetry to the neon lights being taller and over the darkened, nay empty, White House. It’s like an on the nose metaphor for how the current president puts his own self-aggrandizement over his duty as leader.

ISO a content creator or community member to play the Birthing Pod side of classic Modern matches of Splinter Twin vs Birthing Pod. Anyone feeling nostalgic and want to battle with some old Modern lists? Looking to record 3 matches via MTGO, likely ~2 hour time commitment .

Ok. Fine. Everyone? Make a claim. Claims from everyone who has been assaulted by ICE. Claims for emotional distress at having watched the insurrection. Racism? Harassment? Police violence? Victimized by Trump's policies? Just gum up the works.

The United States government just agreed to pay $1.8 billion to the United States president, approved by the president's own personal lawyer who represented him when he was convicted of 34 criminal counts. This is the biggest scandal in all of American political history.

Mamdani: I cannot help but think of the words of our 40th president, Ronald Reagan. He famously said, “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are 'I'm from the govt & I'm here to help'" I think nine more terrifying words are actually, "I worked all day and can't feed my family"

Because you can’t remove people from your life entirely. You will deal with people you wish you could delete. Even if temporarily. But you WILL see them, interact with them, see them fail and succeed in spite of you. People like this want to curate other peoples lives to service their own.

Trump has found a “loophole”: If a war lasts less than 60 days he can do as many of them as he wants. Stop them to start another war. And move to another. No one has been so bankrupt in every way a position of power.

Hungary lesson: Don’t debate Trump on policy. Name the corruption—and threat to democracy. Connect it to people’s lives. $3,800/household from tariffs. $2.5B gutted from the CDC. Billions in Trump family crypto profits while your grocery bill climbs and your kid’s school loses funding.

Nothing has changed since Andrew Carnegie failed to give away his fortune before his passing. The law even prevents the good from getting rid of it. The system is broken and has been for a hundred years and we must fix it.

In all seriousness, one thing that might be worth doing today: Tell your Reps and Senators to call Adm. Richard Correll, the Commander of U.S. Strategic Command, which controls the nation's nukes, and remind him of *his* unique responsibility to refuse an illegal order.

I'm sorry but if you have 4,000 employees and your revenue is 6 billion, you make 1.5 million per employee and if you can't make a profit margin there, you are simply embezzling it.
