On June 24, 2006 I completed a quest that began in a Molten Core raid. I stood in a baking hot Seattle (technically Kirkland) back yard and married Julian, who came down from Canada and began the long, strange trip that has brought us to this day. We saw the Warcraft movie together. We stood in line for four expansions, and leveled together for decades. 20 years later, I am still Busbandon and they are still Gwifelor.

Thank you, Julian, for all of it. I love you.

This week's Hearthstone Tavern Brawl takes us to the Battle of Tol Barad.

This week we take a deep dive — pun obviously intended — into the lore and psychology of Azshara, the ruler of the Naga on Azeroth.

After watching the World Cup, an athletic spectacle where tens of millions tune in to watch opposing groups of humans attempt to move a ball into a net while inexplicably not using their hands.

Diablo 4 Season 13 kicked off with the launch of the Lord of Hatred expansion in April, and we the player base have been eating this content up.

I have jury duty this week, so please think of me as you enjoy your life out in the world, as I sit on an uncomfortable chair in the most liminal space you can experience that still has people in it. I have a granola bar, and they provide coffee but it was too hot and I burned my entire esophagus. Here’s hoping my phone battery holds.

This is The Queue, our daily column where I hope you have a lot of Qs so I have something to do while I wait through the beigest of hells.

World of Warcraft's yearly Midsummer Fire Festival is happening now until July 5, 2026 and you can join the party at any faction's capital city or any neutral sanctuary capital, including Silvermoon City.

Today's WoW maintenance is a little longer than usual, with two hours of maintenance for all Warcraft servers.

Diablo 4 Season 14's Pandemonium theme will be live in the game soon, adding your standard seasonal invasion of Sanctuary, featuring throngs of enemies and a new Big Bad to thwart.

It’s Storm Watch time, and oh boy have we been getting hit by a big rainstorm. It’s been about a week of off-and-on rain, and all weekend, some steady, hard rain has left the city and surrounding areas in a rainfall/flooding warning. Sadly, no truly epic thunder and lightning, but maybe that’s coming next week.

While I go invest in some sandbags, and a new bathing suit, it’s time for our daily question and answer column — The Queue!
