  • On a similar vein, quit using fabric softeners and dryer sheets.

    Fabric softeners use a mild acid to burn off loosening fibers which speeds up the wear of your clothes.

    Dryer sheets work by transferring wax from the sheet to your clothing. This smooths those fibers down and waxes them in place. Wax is incredibly good at holding odors, that’s why we use it for candles and why dryer sheets leave a lasting smell. Unfortunately, it’s not picky so any smell can get trapped in that wax and linger for ages.

    As it turns out, most modern textiles are made out of finely processed material, you’re going to be hard pressed to find any clothes that actually need that kind of treatment. It’s wholly pointless on synthetic fabrics.

    The worst offenders will begin to pill after a while, you simply shave the pills off with a razor or a depiller tool, which is fully affordable with the money you save on not buying dryer sheets.








  • 23 years here. Tolarian Community College has a great video on how the new rotation and increased standard legal products have functionality defeated any of the guide rails standard originally had while also massively bloating the pool of cards.

    If these investors are moving cards at all they’re well aware of the impact that’s going to have o. The secondary markets. If they’re looking at the movement of sealed products too, they should be lighting torches. Increase in production of creative material always leads to drop in quality which means fewer good cards, mechanics, more bans as poorly conceived cards slip through, and burnout among creative staff. None of which will bode well for anything outside of eternal formats.

    Unfortunately, all of this is moot. The current dingus in charge is former EA. Can’t imagine they’re thinking about the weekly putout of the goose, they’ve already sold the golden eggs they think it carries.
