I was reminded that WoW is 20 years old.
I played from 2007 to 2013 then waited to return until Legion and only stayed for the single expansion. I went back with my husband for a month to play this year and it simply... wasn't for me. WoW did not feel the same and I didn't expect it to. The game, the setting, and the players have all changed over the years and I no longer find comfort in Azeroth.
But damn... does watching the old cinematics really make me feel.
As someone who wants to be an artist, seeing AI art makes me think it's pointless for me to even try.

I keep having this weird dream.
No this isn't a Kingdom Hearts fanfic.
I dream about being in a house with other people, who I can't name or recognize, but apparently, I know them. The house is never the same layout, but there is always one room that's pitch black and where I say the "witch" lives.
No one can go in there or you'll provoke her. You have to keep away from the door or she'll start coming out of the room.
It's unsettling and there's always some reason I have to go near the room. The room is a basement next to the laundry room where I'm supposed to do laundry. The room is right across from a bedroom I need to go into. The room is halfway up some stairs I need to ascend to get where I'm going.
I wake up feeling tension in my chest and unease. I'm not sure what it is, but this thing has been haunting me for about two weeks now. I don't like it.
There is not set deadline for success and achievements.
It is okay to wander and take the scenic route.
Life is not a straight line.
I started a project. Picking up the trash around my building and in this dense area where a lot of our little critters hang out. I filled a single trash bag today before I figured out how difficult it’s actually going to be. This picture is after I finished.
I pulled multiple plastic bags and picked up about twenty discarded alcohol bottles from under the leaves.
Gross. I don’t understand how people can think this is okay. I smartly bought gloves to wear beforehand.
I really want to do something meaningful, and I feel like this is a good deed that I am capable of doing. I do want to purchase a rake to better get under the brambles and to scope for any snakes that might be underfoot.
Not to mention the area between buildings. When my neighbors aren’t parked there, I think I’ll go snatch up all the trash in that area. If nothing else, it’ll make me feel better.
I know this is kind of a medium project that could be done easily with more people, but I don’t have any local friends to recruit. After this, I might start walking the neighborhood to pick up trash off the side of the road.
Anyway, I’m proud of myself for this. Even if I only did one bag, it’s a start to make a difference.
I am starting to hate Discord.
It has so many pop ups and so many "features". Discord is over engineering itself. It's no longer a nice simple platform to chat with friends, but instead a constantly moving forum. I hate that I have to join a discord server to get information on something because that's where the information is stored instead of on a forum or just placed on the internet.
It's turning into what everyone hated Skype for. In fact, it's pretty much there.
i hate that every game on steam that releases in now marked "early access"
if i am PAYING you for the game, it is not early access. it's a full game. if it's early access, it's a beta and i should not have to pay you $40 for an unfinished product.
