Looks our first post-phyrexian palette cleanser leans into magical and the fairy tale. Not sure how I feel about this endless sleep threat, but we’ll see how it plays out.
This is an absolutely spectacular long form article from NYT that walks through small communities in mesopotamia, and how large political and economic changes have made them among the first to experience climate change as a life-threatening crisis.

Climate change has been particularly unsettling this summer because it has felt like a constant reminder that it can’t be escaped. Even if you aren’t in Florida or Arizona or Greenland, even if you feel like you’re insulated up in Vermont or Canada – bam, 11 inches of rain in 24 hours.

Building or buying up in this market feels like a dream, so we’re slowly improving the house we have to fit our needs.
I like the concept of being able to talk openly about mens’ issues. That liberation name is unfortunate; in my opinion, it definitely sounds at least apologetic towards misogyny. What do we have to be liberated from?

Great article. If Morocco’s claim is rejected, what’s stopping Algeria from trying to step into that power vacuum? Does Western Sahara have any sort of organized military that could resist against armed conflict over its resources?
I wouldn’t be surprised if we just saw the region become a capitalism pseudo-country, with US/China coming in to buy off the resources.
