OSSOFF: Mike, you just confused Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act despite reading from your notes ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️

WoW has a problem with a noxious mutant bug creature and an army of its minions making zones unsafe. Also, 12.1.5 launched.

Shakking, vorting, frewing up

I could accept this if they give us back other people who were wrongfully taken.

Man. Constant Fridged Parents except it’s just notable members of the Horde.

Heck yeah, Joe! And to Janie for the quote.

Hooray! The Dream will play in an arena suitable for the Finals! Just came down from the league.

Please enjoy this monarch butterfly. I grew that marigold myself, so I’m quite pleased.

Y’all, I hate to rain on the dead bot parade, but the Yandex data center destruction doesn’t seem to have significantly impacted social media bots. I made temporal graphs of X posts about AfD around the time of the attack and there’s no sign of a sudden dip or residual impact on that conversation.

Part of the issue is characters can be compelling or have good hooks and get forgotten, too, if there isn’t someone advocating for them regularly. Thalyssra, Geya’rah, Talanji, Tess, Mayla, Baine, Ji, Aysa, Zek’han… would love to see them And then there’s the absolute crimes committed against Yrel

My point is, we don’t get to like characters unless we spend time with them. And sure, we can get over-exposed (looking directly at the more recent grumbling about Xal’atath, here), but in an ongoing game, time with characters weaving in and out is time for us to grow fond of them.

I wonder how many people remember how the general fanbase reacted to Anduin back in Mists.

I know writers who use subtext and they're all cowards.
