i like your humansona

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 12h

there is at least a classroom full of people who are excited about warhammer and it's entirely your fault (positive)

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 12h

I'm a hardcore truther that elves read ear language as tone indicators and humans struggle to speak Darnassian/Thalassian for that reason (it sounds like a flat monotone to elven speakers) so I 300% endorse this, bat goblins

bigulf's tumblr feed is full of wolf memes but they're all about how much they love community and freedom

@livsmithvavo.bsky.social I dearly hope you have seen the rogue trader fake text posts

A tumblr post styled to be from Ulfar from Rogue Trader, account name bigulf. Post reads *pets you on the head (10 tons of force)*

Hopefully the social media buzz about it inspires model updates for the ‘legacy’ species - I would love to make a Druid of the Claw build nelf that’s 6 feet wide, just full Halsin it, absolutely massive lad

a hedgehog is walking on a carpeted floor in a room .

I’ve been having this thought off and on for months, are we okay should we talk to someone

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 1d

the other funny one was with nerubians being like 'ew gross you have so few limbs' as though a dracthyr does not have 7

rude

the necron lord in 1 waking up with a 'This galaxy is infested with VERMIN.' was so good

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 1d

i'll believe it when a dracthyr dies of old age 😤

not sure what the warcraft definition of mortal is come to think of it, like are earthen mortal? are draenei? night elves got called immortal when it was very possible to kill them

hmm

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 1d

me as a dracthyr going like 'who the fuck are u calling mortal'

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 1d

Yeah, it's unfortunate that all we know about Haranir is really that they're 'kind of elf kind of troll'

that and inheriting the problem of both night elves and trolls having pretty mediocre customisation, so a modern model shows them up

[wiping psyker blood off my force-sword] the worst part is the cleanup, honestly, the bills are tremendous

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 1d

Oh! I didn’t know about Hava Nagila, that’s neat - I did mean the latter :)

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 1d

I enjoy getting people with Hava for exactly this reason, can't even be mad

get joy injected in your life lmao

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 1d

The storyline it most reminds me of is honestly the Amon saga from StarCraft, even down to recruiting Kerrigan/Sylvanas

something something break the infinite cycle

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 1d

my crackpot idea is to do the ending of The Good Place, which without too much spoiling is basically about demystifying the afterlife and then *remystifying* it afterwards

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 1d

You are all trapped, and think you are free because you cannot see the bars. How tragic. How terrible.

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 1d

Yeah, I get you - must be extremely tough to not only write a song that works on its own but also references so many disparate things. Got to capture a vibe with words

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 1d

My favourite, The Tale of Cu Chulainn

wise person once said: community very good at identifying problems. very bad at proposing solutions.

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 1d

I do like checking out D&D builds, but mostly to just ensure I can do the stuff my character wants to do the best

Like, if there's some magic item or multiclass dip that lets my luchadore Monk suplex people better I want to know about it

Alex Mittoo @alexmittoo.bsky.social · 1d

That's always been a weird one - thankfully being fixed with the 2024/5.5E rules to just give you more necromancy [/whatever specialty wizard you are] spells as you level up

Necromancer specifically isn't released yet, just as unearthed arcana while they figure out the specifics
