And it's a beautiful phase (and entire fight, really)

The players in my D&D game were marching up on a death cult they've been chasing for a while, so I got them to experience some fancy death cult speeches and sermon.

Easter psalms and sermons sure do provide a lot of "shit a fantasy death cult would say" inspiration.

Future update opportunity includes a list of shorthands/acronyms for dungeons and raids, but that's a pretty long list to dig up and recall, so it's for another time.

The WoW Jargon & Acronym Index World of Warcraft players use a lot of specialized language, acronyms, and terminology. Here’s what many of them mean!

Inspired by my Google Search insights showing me that people find my articles with searches like "what does soak mean wow", I have compiled an index of jargon and acronyms used by people in World of Warcraft.

Watching this NVIDIA keynote for CES 2026 and nothing says "Consumer electronics" like calling out Palantir over and over again. So relatable. So consumer.

These were solid productions: video, QA, etc. All looked and sounded good!

Loving the insights, QOL efforts, and potential in upcoming changes! Tense about the combat addon changes, mostly in an accessibility scope, but looking forward to further details and discussions.

Oh, and the access to the Weapon vendors are locked on a per-character basis, so it's not even a good way to gear alts despite the Displaced Corrupted Mementos being 1:1 warband tradeable.

Seriously, what?

Oh, and you can't even buy the cosmetics until after the timegate period. What.

Three months into the season, poorly communicated content release timings, and you still put a timegate on the experience of this re-use of previous content? Yeesh. Just let the players play the stuff.

I've been maining the same character for most of WoW's runtime, that I don't think I could switch to another character for that. Too much attachment.

An array of screenshots of level 80 World of Warcraft character. 25 of them are Warriors. Then there's another 12, one of each of the other classes from the game.

I leveled a #worldofwarcraft warrior of every race, but also included the other classes so I don't look like a crazy person. #warcraft

What if higher item level tracks were tied to Runed/Gilded of the Undermine achievements instead? It's still a difficult barrier to break through, but would reward people playing at those higher levels consistently enough without being restricted to just one specific activity.

The Cartel Chip design choices are unfortunate due to how unavailable Mythic raiding seems to be, largely driven by the difficulty of organizing a consistent group of 20 players. Could there be a 10-man Mythic raid? Could players with Keystone Legend get access to Myth track upgrades of Chip items?

Good job! Barioth is definitely a huge wall in the Iceborne progression. Almost assuredly the point of the game that forced most people to finally stop using equipment from pre-Iceborne

haha yes, 300 hours, that's all. Any more would be absurd, of course.

Trump admin and the Department of Government Efficiency threatens layoffs while offering to "buyout" federal employees. This mirrors a practice done by companies of offering a voluntary severance package ahead of widescale downsizing.

A side by side view of Elon doing the first, front facing salute in similar timing with Nazi party leader Adolf Hitler, albeit from different angles. I do openly oppose Nazis and their symbols, which I perceive Elon Musk to be doing here.
