Just going to start a thread for my premodern deck land alters I've been having fun with. Inspired by some foil peel alters originally, but really don't enjoy foils that much. Then stumbled across a few Japanese mtg players doing non foil and then found @skyfolkmtg who inspired

NO NEW HUMANS
Best contraceptive ever built: a screen in your hand.
Put the phone down. Throw the condoms out. Go fuck.
No new humans, no humanity.

This but Victorian
Introducing Arete-27B: Qwen3.8-27B, post-trained to reinforce Western values.
Chinese open models are currently the strongest available, but they ship with state-aligned behavior in the weights. We built an 803-prompt eval across seven value categories, including freedom of expression, democracy, and privacy, and measured how often a model adopts China’s party line.
After fine-tuning on roughly 53 million tokens, Arete-27B's propaganda rate fell from 22% to 1%, in line with the Western models we tested. Its Hermes Bench score shows no significant performance tradeoffs.
The values in an open model are one fine-tune away.
Our eval, weights, and training data are available now along with the full blog post: nousresearch.com/arete
