The best part is, that’s how I actually picture the kaldorei in game. As a bunch of muscled beauties who can and will kick your backside back to the Stone Age

I mean. The other Horde is slumming it around Mt.Doom getting dunked on by dragons. So I think it can be safely said Thrall was definitely on to something.
Seriously dudes are running around calling themselves Rend and Maim. Talk about try-hards.
I rather follow the command of dragons before I accept any peace with the filthy alliance.
Yeah I don’t have a lizard kink.
There’s approximately one character I’d obey without question.
The shovel from the Sludgefields what can render moral judgement.
I still insist we name it Magistrate Diggs and give it a seat on the Desolate Council.

Nice seeing Blackrock Mountain compared to Mount Doom despite having more Moria-esque features than any other Dwarf City in WoW.
Anyone who sees the Pillars of Moria knows what I’m speaking of. Blackrock Depths has a Room with just that right before the Final Boss room.
Blackrock Mountain is Volcanic Moria and/or Erebor.
Searing Gorge is Isengard although Searing Gorge lacks a Giant Tower in the Center to serve as it’s Orthanc.
The Maw is Mordor.
Twilight Highlands is the Shire.
Ardenweald is Lothlorien.
The Runewood of Stormheim is Rohan’s Edoras.
The Ruins of Lordaeron are Minas Tirith(yes I actually compared the Architecture) though in an inferior form. The Ruins of Lordaeron aren’t a towering mountain of a City like Minas Tirith is.
All the areas except the Ruins of Lordaeron and Searing Gorge improve upon the original in some form while(in the case of the Maw and Ardenweald) detracting from it in other forms:
The Maw’s Zovaal’s Cauldron isn’t a Mount Doom for it’s Mordor though it does look like a better Mordor regardless.
Ardenweald’s Treetop Platforms are crude rather than grand and graceful yet has a more magical feel to it than Lothlorien in terms of the Forest itself.

Honestly I’m like the weirdest Tolkien fan because I’ve just never gotten into LOTR. It has the “Bladerunner” (1982) problem where I saw everything it inspired before I watched the original. Which is a bit like chewing on wheat after you’ve already had sliced bread.
But as a student of anthropology I adore a lot of his academic work, and it’s shocking to me how woke an Englishman born in the heart of the 19th century Empire was.
Seriously if you’ve the time/interest listen to his response to N@ZI publishers. This is borderline pornographic for me. Just chef’s kiss. That’s how you say “Eat ish and die you know-nothing buffoons” with some class;

Going by names alone I think I’d prefer to follow people named Rend and Maim instead of someone named slave
True but he’s got a whole kinda Prince, Malcolm X reasoning behind it so it works.
Better than Go’el. And Christ’s blood Metzen yes we already picked up on the Superman reference who was himself a Moses reference owing to the Jewish heritage of Siegel and Shuster.
IT WAS ALREADY PRETTY SPELLED OUT.
Naming him essentially Kal’el is just creative bankruptcy.
Well. Natural Selection finds a way I guess.

Leave it to TikTok to weed out the stupid people in life huh? That app and twitter I swear are going to single handily be the downfall of mankind 
And my puppy ate my only pair of gym shoes. And my car needs an oil change.
I swear to God adult life is just randomly being charged $70-300 dollars as an existence toll.
But hey, we get to appreciate the good things right? Like watching other humans beat each other up for money while claiming it’s sport.
And no, I’m not talking about boxing or any kind of fighting, I’m talking about this:

As I’ve said, America went downhill the milisecond we outlawed dueling.
Which is why I’m proud to be from a city that has mutual combat laws. If two mfers wanna fisticuff you get a cop and paramedic on scene. And then…
America is a glorious 1776 car pile up of random refugees, displaced natives and sneering angloid and French conquerors.
Sometimes ya gotta settle it the old way. Just have paramedics on hand because your head hitting the sidewalk is not as pretty when as when it just hit soft, wet dirt.
I’m a firm believer that we can’t find anything funny about a Bayerischer Corporal who was constantly ishing his pants due to a diet of exclusively sweets and méth.
I don’t care if this Melvin Brooks has excuses like “I’m literally Yiddisch” or “I shot N@ZIs in WW2”. Clearly he’s a sympathizer. How else could you explain this?
Surprised you wouldn’t consider Stormwind more like Minas Tirith, and Undercity more like Minas Morgul. Two cities, one over run by evil and cursed, the other ringed with walls with a big tower. They were sister cities in Tolkiens lore originally, same in WoW lore.
Minas Morgul is closer in resemblance to the inside of Torghast.
Architecture-wise the Ruins of Lordaeron in no way resembles Minas Morgul but instead resembles Minas Tirith and especially Osgiliath(which became a base of operations for Mordor Forces in Return of the King only to be liberated after the Battle of Pelennor Fields) in Architecture.

So anyway I’m just going to post it here because anonymity. Turns out I’m somethings called Non-Binary. Explains why I always leaned towatd women roles in plays. I like feeling pretty.
That’s a thing apparently. You’re allowed to only feel like a man 60% of the time. Feeling like an excitable hausfrau that wants to look perfect for the neighbors is totally normal.
But not showing off my anime catboy mode. Unless of course Anya request it.
Certainly explains why my mood has been perpetually;
Even with anonymity I get leery of what is shared online. It seems like people just want to gather information to turn around and insult you with it. Or worse, I hear about the people who got SWATed because of online gaming feuds.
For example, the discussion that was going on earlier in this thread… someone wanted to insult me, so in the same breath they call me: a homosexual, a homophobe, and a womanizer who hits on women at bars… some how that all made sense to them idk. Someone wanted to insult me, but they don’t know enough about me, so they cobbled together random insults about men.
I like that people invent stuff in their minds whole cloth to insult me. Makes it funny.
For all the fussin and fighting that goes on here, and I am a part of, I wouldn’t even consider taking it further. But the sharing of private info, sharing pictures, locations, friends… questioning each other’s religions and race… people here really hate each other lol.
I was worried about Discord for a while. I feel like someone who owns a discord server can find where you live through internet magic.
Maybe I am a little overly paranoid.
My defense is that I’m just as relentlessly wholesome and also rather boring online as I am in person, so…
Like, someone could dig endlessly into my post history or my real life, but they’d be only punishing themselves. I have a rather unique name, so I mind my manners. Also, I’m drama averse, so I’ll usually duck out of drama on the high internet when it gets serious. Which is actually pretty easy most of the time, because I ENJOY BEING NICE DAMNIT
