I just realized tonight all those years as a kid coming home from school to play Warcraft3 and, in it, Jaina Proudmoore being the relateable girl a little older than me had profound effect on me. I hadn’t even really thought about it until accidentally generating an image of her tonight, realizing i’m really attached to her, looking at my childhood realizing 90% of my free energy was in warcraft3 with jaina the one relateable character, and refreshing myself on her history a bit to realize there are parallels between her story and mine in all sorts of areas and that i turned out highly magical with a tendency to leadership just like her. lots of me tonight being like ‘omg im basically jaina’
anyway, i realized tonight jaina was my main childhood rolemodel. who was yours? do you see their effect on you like i do with jaina?
Jaina’s pretty fucking cool as a role model, lol. I don’t think I had any as a child per se, but Nietzsche, Thales of Miletus and Diogenes were very influential in my early teenage years! If I wasn’t a little bit afraid of e-weirdos, I’d share this YT vid of me cosplaying Thales for a school project, walking around town, proselytising in flip-flops. 😅
