i spent christmas alone while my family got together and fought, and honestly i feel so good about this
i bought myself presents, cooked a big meal, drank wine and watched Home Alone 3 w/ my dog. I don’t feel sorry for myself at all.
meanwhile my sister threatened to disown my dad so he threatened to disown her, while my mom enabled and my other sister downed a bottle of wine to deal.
on the other side of the country, i was busy discovering, to my delight, that the that the 3rd installment of the Home Alone franchise not only stood up to the test of time, but contains some of the best oneliners and comedic timing I have ever seen.
honestly, keep toxic people out of your life. family isn’t everything, and bad family is often worse than no family. don’t be afraid to put in some distance, especially during high stress times like the holidays. you don’t actually owe them anything.
being alone for the holidays is so much better than being with people who make you unhappy.
WAIT WASN’T THE WRATHGATE LIKE, EXPLICITLY A SPLINTER FACTION THAT HAD THROWN IN WITH THE BURNING LEGION
I too remember well the time Sylvanas revealed she was a demon who had been playing the long con and was still loyal to the Burning Legion, summoned a demonic army into the Undercity, while also attempting to seemingly summon Sargeras himself into the Royal Chambers at the heart of the city.
Varimathas was very upset about how she took his spotlight.
Everyone enjoys World of Warcraft in their own way and roots for the characters and side they like the best, they relate to the most. It’s all good! Have fun and be kind. Express your opinions but don’t make fun of or put down other people for what they love and what they like.
We, the community, are what keeps the game going. Our dedication to the lore and world is the heart of everything good. Remember to be patient, kind and respectful despite differing opinions. It can only make us stronger and the experience much more fulfilling.
It’s worth noting that Kenneth spent the entire episode making the game (and the subsequent fight) as inclusive as possible for JJ and his disabled friends (all of whom were played by disabled actors/actresses).
