This is one of those features I wish I could opt-out of. I don't need to know this stuff, and it makes me uncomfortable I'm on random peoples' lists.

That, and it says "whispered" on about 9/10ths of the people on my list, but I literally only bnet whisper my friends. So many false positives.

Baseball wise I'm a Rangers fan, but I've got nothing but love for the M's. Seeing Polanco get that walk-off RBI single gave about the same feeling as Garcia getting the walk-off homer in Game 1 of the '23 World Series.

Mariners, in Cal's words; "Might as well win the whole fuckin' thing."

Another great thing is that all inns are considered sanctuaries / neutral territory, even the ones within the Horde side of SMC. So we get to be able to hang and RP with our Horde friends in about 3/4ths of the new SMC (Neutral side + Neutral inns in Horde side combined)!

I hit 60 and things started to get a little tough but no biggie.
I hit 70 though? Suddenly it's like I'm back in 2004. Every fight is life and death. I can only manage one mob at a time, and I have to recuperate after every kill. And it only got worse each level. Just insane.

This mog being CN-exclusive is pain. But what's even more pain, at least to me, is that the TWO-SEATER BOAT that also shipped with this mog is CN-exclusive too. I want the boat! It even has a cute cat sleeping on it!

I don't care if it's being a 'party pooper'. But the Ai voice darthvader thing in fortnite is very distasteful. I don't care if his "family consented" for his deceased voice to be used. It feels really weird and wrong

The fact that the Gob Squad weren't in Undermine at all was such a mistake. Really could've helped with the lack of Horde Goblins doing things down there, outside of Gazlowe.

LIKE WHY WEREN'T THEY THERE?

Another wonderful piece of art, also full body!! I'm so happy ^^
This time by the wonderful 🎨 @mamabeefus.bsky.social via the art auction at @worldsfaire.bsky.social last month! Beefy's an awesome person and artist! 💖

Tris is ready for some engineering!

A Worgen (werewolf from World of Warcraft) stands against a transparent background, facing the viewer with a friendly smile and a wave. He looks happy! He's got some goggles resting on his head, and a bandana is protecting some of his hair. There's a collared shirt, covered by a smithing apron that has some soot on it, a belt with some tools on it, and he's got a pair of fingerless gloves on.

...ohhh motHERFUCKER!!!
STOP TROLLING US ALREADY!!!

An April Fools joke from the annual April Fools changelog by Blizzard Entertainment about World of Warcraft, where they remove Worgen tails.

It is a joke.

Tristarr @tristarr.bsky.social · Mar 28

And Pandaren still get the mask too. So Blizz shows us, yea there could just be a toggle for this stuff if they really wanted to. But nah let's have it be inconsistent.

Tristarr @tristarr.bsky.social · Mar 28

That one in the bottom left makes me a bit upset actually!
On Worgen, the mask stays on and looks just hideous.
But in BfA, we get new tricornes from Tol Dagor, the Flashpowder Hood. It has a mask too, but on races with snouts, the mask is gone... unless you're Vulpera, then it glitches?!? Agh! Why!

Huge thanks to 🎨@dhaiart.bsky.social who did such a wonderful job. Their art is always fantastic & they're great to work with. Can't recommend them enough!

In an art piece, a Worgen (werewolf from World of Warcraft) stands proudly on the deck of a Golden Age of Sail vessel, with hand on hip.

He is wearing a green trenchcoat with gold embellishments, beige trousers, a leather double belt, a pair of cuffed boots, pauldrons, and a tricorne. On his belt is a cutlass and a revolver. The artist is DhaiArt.

Star Trek Voyager scene. We see the EMH Doctor looking shooketh AF talking to Chakotay like Chakotay just told him he's maybe gonna have a romantic storyline with Seven a few seasons from now. Closed caption reads, "I'm a night owl."

This is where I'm at this whole week! I've always loved WFC (and ToA in August), how the community comes together to have a great time, and raise money for great causes.

Star Trek Deep Space Nine scene. Two pictures. Picture one is focused in on a future space plate. You have some nice jam, a couple of scones, and next to it sits a lil' cup sans handle and a single serving tea kettle. Caption reads, "Do you remember" and the rest of the sentence is on the next picture. Pic two is a soft and soap opera looking Weyoun, shot from below with him looking down, like he's cooing at a baby in a crib and humming a lullaby. He has large ridged and ribbed ears that extend down to his chin, pale white skin and jet black hair. Closed caption continues, "when I first offered you scones?"

Some things on the character create / barber I wish Blizz would do:
- change pose (t-pose / purposeful "standstill" pose, no looking around)
- change outfit (being in underwear)
- change lighting/environment (throw you inside a warband screen or single room or something, allow dimming lights)
