My three-way-mirror arrived and exercising card magic changed immediately because I see how dirty I am all the time and getting clean by watching 3 angles is really hard.

The problem with non-CC-RPGs: I do a lot of translation work for translating major parts of Curse of Strahd into German to have a better flow in my sessions and cannot share it legally :( #dnd #rpg

I like it how it seems that each “kind” of magician says that their specialization is harder to learn than the other ones. 🤦♂️

I just watched a short Shin Lim-performance and at the end it is clear that he forced the card at the beginning, and suddenly I am watching the beginning over and over again how the hell he did the force…my watching habits definitely changed. #magic

Fellow IT-people: when you are not a freelancer, do you take additional customers that will pay you money for your services or do you keep it at family support? I’m hesistant to do so because usually it is not “do it once” but usually they expect then support, if something breaks

In terms of hobbies where I can also have fun with my kids, magic beats so far everything. They want to be an audience, they want to know how stuff works, they want to try stuff themself. It is great :)

Oh, and it is astonishing what you can already do with a couple of mediocre sleights, a double lift and a bit of card control. #cardmagic

My older son told me about a magician that comes to their school. He worked out the tricks, cause he did really bad sleights by flashing to him the coin he palmed etc. He knew how the tricks worked but didn’t tell because he didn’t want to be the annoying spectator. Well done!
