What it does

On reveal: If an enemy card was revealed here earlier this round, +2 Power to this card.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 8 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Creators cards are strongest on their own, and some only get going late.

The site, in 2016

Kate Wagner's blog that picks apart McMansions, the big mass-built suburban houses of the 1980s to 2008, using listing photos marked up with arrows and jokes.

Beyond the roasts it runs essays on urban planning and architectural history. In June 2017 Zillow claimed it broke Zillow's terms and copyright law; the Electronic Frontier Foundation took Wagner's side and Zillow dropped it.

Modern era, 2009 on. Phones, feeds and cookie banners. The web got fast, flat and very sure about notifications.

Cult Classics: Small, strange and loved to bits by the people who found them.
