I imagine the profitability of a comic shop isn’t that high though. Or am I wrong? Or is it one of those things were you have to be lucky to find a good location?

@magnifique_f8h I think the SEC website should have a search engine where you can check if a company is registered. There seems to be a corresponding FB page for this Philippine Buyers Choice Awards as well. Also, congrats! lol

During a cold night last February, at a Manila slum called Happyland (a play on the Filipino word ‘hapilan’—meaning ‘garbage dump’), everyone was awakened by knocks on their doors. Policemen in plainclothes had arrived and forced everyone to leave (continued in thread)

Over 70% of executives think they are “blockchain experts” according to Deloitte’s 2018 Blockchain Survey 😂
They also believe the biggest advantage of blockchain technology is speed 🤦♂️
The biggest problem in blockchain is hubris. And it’s toxic. 🤮
There are no experts.

I did a prerelease at the Hareruya in Tokyo (because it happened to coincide with a trip with friends), it was cool. I think they’re pretty used to foreigners coming in, they had English-language prerelease packs for us. And everyone could communicate to some degree. I was mostly able to cope despite not being 100% familiar with the cards. My one problem was when someone played a creature with an ability that I wasn’t sure what it was and the guy had to say it a few times. I kept hearing “mens” but eventually figured out it was “menace” lol.
(This anecdote isn’t really relevant to constructed I guess lol sorry)

thr content of this thread was disappointing, but I still hope mastodon can turn out good
Quoted ButchPuppy's tweet:“Just move to Mastodon” is awfully similar to “just move to Canada.”
Easier said than done.
Folks have build their followings & their incomes on this website.
It’s not just swapping sites, it’s convincing one’s following to move to a counterintuitive site with no app service.

How about some kind of different minimum wage brackets depending on how many employees you have (this would include subcontracting etc). Like for 1-10 employees, minimum wage is X, for 11-50 employees minimum wage is X + 100, 51-200, minimum wage is X + 200, and so on.
