Show of hands if this has ever happened to you when asking for a /ginvite ✋ Show of hands if you're a GM/Officer who keeps doing this without meaning to no matter how many decades you've been at this thing ✋✋✋ #WorldofWarcraft

“Chicago pope” already feels like a 30 Rock bit that only happened in one episode but has nonetheless rattled around in your head for 15 years

Gettin' this on a T-shirt. Or mug. Or framed for my wall. OG credit @donmoyn.bsky.social, I found this version on Reddit and nearly choked on my tea.

Gnomes too often get neglected or trivialized into comedic roles. Ms. Maribelle Blottle is none of these things. (Leveling alts to 80, just finished my hunter and druid, my gnome warlock is next.) #WorldofWarcraft

This was the @nytimes.com Spelling Bee earlier. I am offended that Magni’s favorite word was not in their list. #WorldofWarcraft #Champyunthewoons #THEWOONSCHAMPYUN

It's 2025 and misogyny is alive and well. C'mon people, we're better than this. (or we really *should* be better than this)

"Take a seat." #WorldofWarcraft #goblin

Finally complete, Azshara was stingy about dropping her staff. My ren'dorei sorceress (AKA shadow priest) is set on becoming a disc priest. While I can literally switch to this spec in the game and play, I'm making this journey a long one for her. Wielding the Light as a void elf shouldn't be easy.

Another #catrescue pic from the phone. This orange was named Oliver, he came from the “Book Litter” where I named all of them after young protagonists of Classic novels. Though he looks snug in this photo, he and his brothers were battling limping calicivirus at the time. Not fatal but not fun.

Bird noises and wheezing 💅

I'm about 98% positive that my fart huffing joke at expense of the former WoW devs is the reason why this post was removed from the forums. Whoop Well. I was proud of the joke so here it is. (Also, #WorldofWarcraft is far better now. It's come a long, long way from its mid-life crisis.)

I'm not even mad. This is amazing. #WorldofWarcraft #OwO

Look at this graceful descent from the stairways!

I love Cho and his stories, Xal'atath, Ethereals and the Arthas one was pretty good! Shame Tirion didn't get mentioned, though! I now ask Cho, and @worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com an important question! 🐍💙

Very early repentant/hermit Man'ari concept. She chose exile as penance for all she's done. She was a traitor, a killer, and loved it. Now she wanders the wilds of Azeroth, drawn to places where fel has corrupted the earthitself, studying and healing the world in whatever ways she can.

Regular reminder that politics is about deciding how tax dollars will fill potholes, not whether fellow human beings should have equal rights. "No politics" spaces are willfully ignorant to this dangerous shift and not acknowledging this ever-increasing tilt keeps the vulnerable unheard and unsafe.

Finally finished this mog! This is my pally I've roleplayed since 2005. I wanted to embrace a "soldier from the north" vibe along with connections she's made, such as a gifted shield from a long-time Kaldorei comrade. This one feels wonderfully canonical and will be her IC outfit going forward.

Even linkedin is starting to get it

Oh, these two. This floofy orange came to me with his sister summer 2023. They needed a gentle, steady hand to teach them how to open up to humans. They graduated and went home as a pair that Fall. We had a drought of orange tabbies till Gourdo meandered into our trap a year later.

If you recognize the screencap without playing the song, we're friends. If you immediately think of this scene when you listen to the song, we're friends. youtu.be/DybCZvW1mBo #CowboyBebop is still serving moody playlists over twenty years later.

Today's attempt in my ongoing farm of Anu-Azshara, Staff of the Eternal ended in four pairs of the queen's shoes. Does Azshara even WEAR shoes?

Yet another Alliance Guild Faire down, 34 days till the next. Info: wraallianceguildfaire.carrd.co

April Alliance Guild Faire on #WyrmrestAccord.

✨ Elixir of Tongues ✨ (okay how many are in your bags right now??) #WorldOfWarcraft

This is Pidgeon, he was 1 of 5 and runt of his litter. He clawed out his fresh microchip and bled everywhere. To his credit, the clinic botched the injection so little guy was just uncomfy. Here he is in his homemade wound recovery sweater. I also have wound photos but only posting cute stuff.

This is Goose. Due to being an in-bred wonder, Goose was born with a blood clotting disorder AND developed such severe stomatitis at a young age that it led to cholangiohepatitis and we nearly lost her. She survived and now is our toothless wonder of a foster fail. We call her “Goose Baby.”

Old rescue photo popped up on my phone. This guy came to me with a severe eye infection in 2023. He got it during the week he spent in a pet store adoption center, waiting to be adopted. His eye healed and we adopted him out of our home a month later. Hope you’re living the life, now, buddy.

Finished episode three of #Andor The good news is they didn’t come back The other news is well, then! Shit. shit 🎶 🪩 💃 💃 💃 💃 🪩 🎶

Realized the night before that I already had all the pieces of this transmog save one: The shield. Which I have in every color but this one because it drops from random BfA warfront supply chests. Fuck it, I played Shadowlands AND recently farmed Korthia daily recolors. I can handle this grind. 👊

My friend @wondermane.bsky.social sent me this clip from T&E's podcast, where he had propped a Sethrak question and they gave a pretty good answer! Cheers to @wondermane.bsky.social for asking the question, and cheers to @taliesinevitel.bsky.social as well! 💙🐍 #sethrak #worldofwarcraft

Watching S2 of #Andor, just started EP3. Man, I hope we never seen Star Wars’s Meal Team Six squad show up ever fucking again. (I will check in after episode three.)

Spotted this on Reddit, gave me a good chuckle. When your father hates you personally so much he roundabout becomes an Ally. Denethor was so Faramirphobic.

The older I get, the better #Animorphs ages. The reverse goes for #HarryPotter. Is KA Applegate on Bsky yet? Does she know people are finding out she’s a badass who wrote an unabashedly dark series of children’s books about how war is hell? Thank you, Ms. Applegate.
