    I think magic golden age started with Mirridon. The set itself was powerful, card selection was top notch, and the art was a blend of the old magic look but with the modern design without being over the top. Magic design was great up to the events Khans of Tarkir. Every since the loss of block design and the push for more universe beyond, magic will never the same again.

      I'm not sure I agree. Mirrodin infamously almost broke the game with its extreme power level, which yes from today's perspective maybe isn't actually that bad but that says more about today's MTG than it does about Mirrodin. I'm sure the question really comes down to when a player got into the game. I started during the Mercadian Masques block, so to me everything from Urza's Saga to right around Onslaught block would be the golden age (with a special shout-out to Time Spiral block as well), and everything after feels like "new school" Magic.

    I encountered Yuval Noah Harari's writing before he became an internationally known figure. It was a magazine article during a time when Ray Kurzweil's concept of the singularity was relatively novel. Even then, Harari seemed to me to be recycling ideas found in technical media, making bold statements without a deep understanding of the issues, and sometimes taking ownership of these ideas. Over the years, I have read and listened to more of his work, and this initial impression has not changed; on the contrary, it has been reinforced.

    I love the 7th Edition artworks! But only after I separated Serra Angel from the rest of the set. 7th Edition Serra Angel is horrible. On a technical level it's a pretty good artwork, but on an aesthetic level she looks really ugly. Also, she doesn't feel like Serra Angel. For the longest time I had associated 7 Edition with ugly art because of Serra Angel alone. As soon as I left Serra out of the picture and looked at the rest of the cards, I finally see the great artwork in 7ED. Idk, Serra Angel was such a huge fan favorite that she somehow wrapped the perception of the whole set around her.

    Why do people say that Ken killed the waiter? The waiter steered the car off the road. Ken had nothing to do with the car going off the road. It would have been better for the two if they hit the deer instead. It also wasn’t Ken’s fault that he didn’t have the lung capacity to free the waiter from the underwater car.

      They say he killed the waiter because he knowingly manipulated a guy in his early twenties to sell and consume drugs. Most people say that the waiter's erratic steering of the car was heavily influenced by the drugs he did in an earlier scene. Also, he wouldn't have been jn the car in the first place if Kendall didn't ask him to so....

    These are gorgeous. I see a lot of similarities between Kawase and Maxfield Parrish in the use of light in early morning and twilight, and the tone palette. Don't know who influenced who, though (or even if they did, though it seems very likely each was aware of the other's work). They were contemporaries; perhaps it was mutual. I have some Parrishs and one Kawase; I'll have to get more Kawase now.

    Definitely my favorite vampire weekend song and one of my favorite songs ever. It stands out to me because it doesn’t feel like a song. Along with the genius lyrics, the instrumentation is very atmospheric and feels like a memory. Especially that bass work. The emotion is really hard to pinpoint. Ezra sounds weary and desensitized until he cracks at that climactic point near the end. The songs like nothing else from them or anyone else.
