One of the things of the past few World of Warcraft expansions is how the story has stretched and grown while it was being told.

If you think of a man getting murdered by a venom spitting Dilophosaurus due to its appearance in Jurassic Park, I don’t regret to inform you that the animal in question was over 20 to 25 feet long, weighed around a ton, and absolutely did not have (much less need) venom of any kind.

I think I'm a fan of the Diablo games, but not the Assassin's Creed games.

Diablo 4 is getting its first seasonal holiday with Midwinter Blight, which is now live.

I think I still love World of Warcraft because I love the way Azeroth looks.

I gotta tell you, if you happen to have been born on the 30th anniversary of Pearl Harbor Day? People will think it’s the height of hilarity to use that line from FDR’s speech to describe it. I heard that line so many times growing up it’s practically engraved on my brain.

Anyway, it’s my Birthday so expect a Queue where I go off in random directions. Yes, I know that’s pretty much every Queue I write.

That header was made by Rades, and I think about him frequently whenever I see it.

If for some reason I can't play any of my stable of current games — be it World of Warcraft or Diablo 4 or Starfield or Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty or Baldur's Gate 3 -- I always have something to fall back on.

You’ll see what I mean when you get there.

One of the things that's evolved over time in World of Warcraft, and is going to evolve more in The War Within, is that you can make choices about what you get up to in the game.

One of the strange things above moving to Canada and eventually becoming a Canadian citizen is that today, the last Thursday of November, is just a day.

In a way I’m glad — y’all know about the current unpleasantness — You have been great, but we still could use the help, if you are able to — and I’m glad I don’t have to go into a holiday with that on my mind, and I don’t have to go around coming up with things to be grateful for just now. But it still feels strange to go from Halloween to Christmas without a holiday to bracket them, I don’t know if I’ll ever get used to it.

But anyway, it is Thursday here, and that means I write the Queue.
