  • It might help to think of it less like a video game and more like a million person bowling league.

    People would log in to hang out. To chat. To bullshit.

    Sometimes, to level up or to raid or to pvp. Sometimes, people would log in and play for a few hours just…going around helping other people with stuff. Some people take their characters to the starter zones, handing out bags and some nice gear upgrades and advice to new players.

    And that doesn’t even take into account the RP servers, where people would have like guild meetings in game, or legit life events like a wedding in game. Funerals when a guild mate dies? Of course!

    That is how it became the biggest MMO ever.

    And the game has largely strayed from those roots, which is why so many WoW players go for the Classic version, rather than play the new expansions.


  • It’s not that they don’t listen. It’s that their brains aren’t built to think critically about anything. They are built to obey, but they’re also narcissists.

    That’s why conservatives go wild for Trump. From the conservative’s point of view, Trump lets them FEEL LIKE THEY ARE OBEYING by doing whatever they want.

    He doesn’t just give them permission or cover to be awful; Trump makes these people feel like they’re helping him when they do shitty and selfish things.

    (This is also why they love cops who hurt people and soldiers who commit war crimes. They get to vicariously OBEY while also BREAKING THE RULES TO FEEL GOOD. Best of both worlds to them, like taking an upper and a downer at the same time.)

    I guess that makes conservatism a social speedball.









  • Why is it we can never have a conversation about Israel without you fucking people lying about everything? It has to be deliberate.

    Cinco de Mayo celebrates a culture, not a country. St Patrick’s Day celebrates a culture, not a country.

    What fucking culture are we celebrating with “Israel Day?”

    Israel isn’t a culture. It’s a goddamn country currently led by a fascist, genocidial government.

    These two things aren’t related. And if you’re not literally stupid, you KNOW that they’re not the same thing…and you still insist on making the argument? Go spread that Mossad Propaganda somewhere the fuck else.




  • At the local level, we have a guy who runs for the school board every goddamn election. All he cares about it trans kids. It’s all he talks about.

    Last meeting, I stood up and asked him “Why do you spend so much time thinking about little kids’ dicks?” and that man didn’t say another fucking word the next 45 minutes. Really looking forward to the next school board meeting lmao. Gonna keep asking him why he’s so obsessed with children’s dicks until he stops talking about it or tries to fight me.
