Today is the Fourth of July, which means most people will be spending the day relaxing and the night reveling. For me, this holiday has always felt a lot like New Year’s Eve — not only is it almost at the exact opposite end of the calendar, but it’s also largely a lot of build-up to a nighttime showing of lights and noise.

I definitely prefer it over New Year’s, but it’s still one of those holidays that, as a kid, I used to look forward to greatly because it meant staying up late and playing with explosives. At some point, it went from something I was excited about to something I remembered being excited about, which means it’s hard to ever live up to what I remember it feeling like.

But y’know what? I’m still going to make things explode and have fun doing so. I hope all you Stateside folks do the same!

The summer fun is on with the Sun's Out, Guns Out event in Heroes of the Storm, which means Nexus pool parties — uh, I mean pull parties — all month long.

July is looking like a pretty packed month as far as events go.

There's an old phrase, popularized a few years back: there are the things we know, the things we know we don't know, and the things we don't know we don't know.
