So, there are some things that most people do, playing games, watching movies or television, playing music. So let's get specific.

What are some of your favorite things to do with your time? The more hyper specific the better?

My favorites (right now) are learning to play star wars legion better, getting back into gunpla, finding mobile games that aren't utter garbage, trying and failing to find decent friends, and sorrowfully watching hasbro destroy magic the gathering.

There are too many sets and spoiler season never ends. I mainly just follow now in case there are any good singles for updating my cube

Yeah I stopped playing about 2 years ago just because of product fatigue. And the new LOTR stuff costing twice as much as a regular set? No thank you. They have also leaned heavily into turning MTG into a weird "investment vehicle" with all these ultra-collectible and exclusive cards, the most egregious of which is the "one of one ring." It's pretty gross. It's much less about the actual game now, which I'm sure would (does?) disappoint Dr. Garfield as he only wanted to make a game. He expected people to play magic at the kitchen table and wrap a rubber band around their deck when done.
