bullies are fueled by weakness

look how much digital ink has been spilled by people writing about Something Awful/4chan/kiwifarms etc. we lived through the development of these communities in real-time and it's interesting to look at it retrospectively

I think talking about the broader sociopolitical dynamics of influential online communities is a very interesting topic and I think lots of other people do too

it's bizarre that "writing for fun" isn't something that scans to you as a completely normal hobby

if you didn't care enough to write it, why should anyone care enough to read it

the mayor of Minneapolis volunteering to show up on Tapper's show only to get stuffed into a locker over how the Good/Pretti murders were his fault because he used a swear word and somehow being completely blindsided by this hostility is instructive

it's pretty inexcusable to me that democrats seem to be totally clueless about this dynamic

you're really invested in this thing you didn't even care enough about to write yourself

after the most recent mini crash at the beginning of Feb, Bitcoin has actually been fairly stable by Bitcoin standards in what is plausibly people psyopping themselves into its value being $69,420

as someone who has not watched The Pitt and doesn't watch courtroom dramas wouldn't the lawyer equivalent of The Pitt be the modal courtroom drama

yeah they were horde players

oh wait you weren't even thinking about it at all, you just had a robot write something for you lmao

oh no wonder it was totally backwards and confidently wrong

I mean obviously you're gonna disagree but I think you're overthinking it, the horde was cast as the actual cool badass ones from day 1 at the Metzen/Morhaime executive level

vehemently disagree with this one sorry, they're using the orcish word because they identified with the bad boy misfit rebel horde and not the stuck up preppy alliance

I would really honestly like to hear her explain her thinking bc all I can think is this is functionally wrecker behavior that is breathtakingly disrespectful by virtue of being a huge waste of a lot of people's time and money

I was about ten years late to the party because of my prolonged disappointment that The Burning Crusade didn't bring in playable naga

well if there's anything to know about blizzard it's they're the least subtle name givers in existence so naturally those are the werewolves

you have a bluesky account and you aren't osmotically familiar with the beast races of azeroth???

Stormwind to them wasn't Hyperborea, it was the homecoming court

OP's premise of who was first drawn to which faction is backwards, the future gamergater was driven to the horde by resentment for the cool kids; the horde is the rebels, the misfits, the ones who were secretly cooler and better all along even if society didn't realize it

if the alliance was the chud faction, why would the chuds adopt as their own a foreign language word that was used to mock them

chuds started saying kek because kek is Orcish and proto-chuds self-sorted into the horde so they say what “their” faction says

got old fast imo

gotta jiu juitsu move and say antisemitism is being spread artificially by the wicked Saudis

*inflates gas prices making them big and round*

I’m supposed to be mad my taxes stopped paying for this

the press has a new Paul Wellstone funeral to whine about for a decade

if it’s a known figure I’m sure people on here will know

I’m assuming they just bought a brand new unsold one with the production budget? But maybe someone on the production wanted it and got to keep it after
