I co-write with my wife, talk about World of Warcraft, and sometimes make things in Blender.

It's that giving time of year again, so this is a reminder that no matter how they try to dress it up, the Salvation Army is not a charity.

Is the order of the cloud serpent selling housing stuff? Because for some reason people are buying golden carp hand over fist and the only use I can think for it is grinding cloud serpent rep.

Going back to Sunsong Ranch to plant snakeroot for ore has reminded me that housing can never be as good as my little farm with its sheep and chickens and yak and pig and kitties and Dog.

Yeah, yeah, these are good, but the very best "stop clicking me" lines were from a random Pandaren NPC who started spouting facts about the Serpent's Spine wall.

Just straight into tour guide mode.
Arator's "stop clicking me" lines. I love the whiney "Sttooooop" lol

Tell me you've never watched Looney Tunes without telling me you've never watched Looney Tunes.
Another crisis is unfolding.

As ever, Plulmber working hard in the background to give us basic QOL features.
New feature in Plumber:
Show the decor's name on hover and press a key to place another instance.

It's a rushed job, please be prepared for issues 😅

Well, the good news is, Blizzard did not fuck with any of my keybinds.

The bad news is, Blizzard did not fuck with any of my keybinds, so I had to crawl into the keybind menu and figure out what key was available for the housing interface.

Housing is now on semi-colon.

This goes doubly for queer creators. I guarantee you that even if you have nothing racier going on than longing looks and perhaps holding hands, if you write anything other than straight, gender conforming, and preferably white characters, they WILL come for you too.
As a pornographer myself, I feel... weird about creators who make distinctions between porn and other adult/sexual content. If you defend porn, your work will ALSO be defended. Don't be afraid to get down in the mud with us. You're gonna end up here anyway.
there is plenty of sexual content on steam. the problem isn't that valve is denying sexual content (though, as a near-monopoly, that would also be a problem) it's that valve is denying specifically sexual content that is non-pornographic, most notably in the horror genre.

The sheer level of fucked up nonsense involved in treating a government SERVICE like it ought to be a profit-making enterprise, is driven by people who very much want to gut all our public services so they can turn them into profit-making enterprises.
The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

WHY IS EVERY SINGLE TILLER ON MY FARM? DON'T YOU PEOPLE HAVE HOMES?

I mean, at least they are no longer randomly embedded in each other, but like, holy shit, I kind of regret becoming best friends with all of you if you're all moving in.

In what is probably unrelated news, I really want to know why WoW will sometimes randomly spike up to using 13-14 gigs of ram and try to crash my computer.

It took me a ridiculously long time to parse this loading screen tip, thanks to the randomly capitalized B (and the lack of any indication that "binds when equipped" was a unified phrase). My brain just persisted in reading Binds as a noun.

Shadowlands and its claim that the spirits of my ancestors are all just "echoes" and they're probably amnesiac blue humans now can continue to fuck off into the sun.
One of the more annoying things about Shadowlands is how the writers just ignored heaps of pre existing shit to make their bullshit world building and story "work" and even then it failed and sucked lol

I haven't pre-ordered Midnight (Blizz doesn't deserve preorders and I'm letting y'all work out the bugs in housing), but re: the ridiculous number of trillium bars needed to make Pandaren fireplaces and wish to remind you that planting Snakeroot seeds will pull up trillium ore as well as ghost iron.
December 5, 2025 at 12:57 AM
I understand why Blizzard can't let us make our own written messages, because I have met gamers and just, you know...humans...but I still wish I could build a shrine to Jani and put a little sign on it telling people to feel free to leave their offerings.

Trash loa best loa.

Do you want a cool flying kite to attach anywhere on your house? Well you need the achievement "Drum Circle".

Here's how to get it:

Go to Highmountain where Mayla is.
Jump up and down on the drum for a few minutes.

That's it. You can buy it from Torv Dubstomp.

Okay, I can't say Kael is one of my favorite names (though I admit I did have a Kaelandra so I am still annoyed), but I am kind of...curious...how AI apparently decided Kael should join Liam and Marcus as a go-to name for male characters. Surely Kael'thas can't have had that much cultural impact.

Oh ffs, even in Hearthstone I can't get away from Blizzard trying to make me pre-order Midnight because of housing.

The current Hearthstone event is housing themed and literally opened with a pre-order blurb.

An easy way to explain luddites:

Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand.

And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before.

That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.

I love my Pandaren, but damn I wish we could have a body type like the one we get in Hearthstone, where male Pandaren actually have LEGS.

I absolutely need art of my beast mastery hunter taking her bear for a walk using that first pose.

Noooo, says the bear, no leash!
But Garrus, Stormwind has leash laws!

So apparently in addition to Liam and Marcus and Blackwood, AI is inordinately fond of the name Sarah, and at this point I am starting to feel personally called out by the training data.
December 2, 2025 at 12:25 PM
One thing I'd really like for player housing - besides just having my hunter pets wander free - is for my active pet to go from following me around to trotting around the house until I leave, when he would come back to my side.

Also I want to be able to hang my fishing poles on the wall.
December 2, 2025 at 3:53 AM
Also, it's December 1st; time to put my hunter in her Winterveil elf bikini and my brewmaster in his Greatfather Winter costume (complete with tree staff).
