WHY ARE JOBS SO HARD TO GET WHY DON'T PPL JUST HIRE PEOPLE I JUST WANT TO MAKE MONEY SO I CAN EAT FOOD AND LIVE IN PLACE
list of hermits i would consider to be supervillains:
#i genuinely think an argument could be made that Hermitcraft is ENTIRELY supervillains of different genres#joe hills is a semi-retired trickster god#welsknight and xisuma are formidable powerhouses even WITHOUT their hels/evil clones/etc.#mumbo has accidentally made a psychological experiment that dominated the server. and is going to make it AGAIN#zedaph is the scientist you think is being forced by the villain to make terrible things and then you find out he enthusiastically applied#hermitcraft is villain retirement/containment (via @boonbeenblade)
honestly you're so right. hermitcraft IS the supervillain retirement-slash-containment. server for containment purposes. can you IMAGINE what cub would do if let out into the greater mcyt ecosystem? accidentally unleashing him on empires was bad enough,
Let's call Martyn just 'Some Guy', it would be funny y'know?
Ah yes
The Sun, The Stars, The Moon and Some Guy
Love the new armor modpack for Limited Life. Wonderful that we can see more of their skins with the armor.
Uhm. No it's great I love it. It's just. Well. I. Listen. It can't just be me right? Its not just me. Its-- so hear me out--
I’m so sorry for this contribution , ik you meant like- over their normal skins but this was my first thought.
joel is simultaneously the most married and the most divorced man on the server
Today’s Sunday.
you have to rb this on a sunday every time u see this on ur dash
Given how much team TIES struggled with taking care of their cows, I have come to the unbelievable conclusion that Jimmy was the animal husbandry mastermind behind the team rancher.
Columbo: Oh, just one more thing... I like your shoelaces, sir, where did you get them? Killer: *sweats*
I use reblog everywhere to irritate people who need web page specific termenology, thanks for letting me know where to not use it if I ever do make an account on that site.
games will go from cool sprites to mediocre 3d models and think its an improvement
I only see it mentioned by other people offhandedly every once in a while, like every once in a blood moon kind of rare, but I would DIE to get to see Scar's oil paintings. SIR PLEASE
If it turns out he has shown them off at some point and I'm just dawdling around wailing like a lost ghost over nothing, you have a moral obligation to tell me.
As my friend @witherroze brought up in the replies, for anybody who's just hearing about this now, Scar has technically shown us some of his paintings before- albeit in pixelated form. He had a texture pack for (Old) Scarland, as shown in this tweet. Check out those landscapes!
They're gorgeous. Still, I do hope that someday he'll post photos of or film the original paintings. I'm dying to get a look at the details and all that. Scar's got a knack for creativity, that's for sure :]
Okay so, the thing about Boundaries, and why people keep bringing them up over and over again to creators, is I think there's a bit of a desire for what people are doing here to not be weird. Cause like, the creator signed off on it, so like, I'm fine and you can't make fun of me or get mad at me.
And like, I understand the desire to not be made fun of or have people get mad at you, believe me, I know, but I think we have all just gotta accept that what we're doing is— it's a little weird, bro.
Like by definition what fandom is is getting a little too much into your thing. Fan comes from Fanatic. We all saw some block men and we went way too hard with it. And I think that sufficiently viewed from the outside, there is just no way to do any kind of transformational creation and it not be weird to the wrong people.
Like, taking a character and making them miserable? One of the honourable fandom traditions, whether you're whumping them or if you go hard into comfort at the end. For someone entirely outside of fandom, that's just like why are you DOING that, bro, and when you add in the fact that we're using people's real names (well, gamer tags), there's no way for that not to be odd. "The creator said it was okay" is not going to make people go ??? any less. (Let me emphasize that this is fine, it's just like, also, you bring that up on the bus and peope go ????)
Let's look at fluff. You want to write about your characters in a coffee shop au? You want to write about your characters in a cuddly family dynamic, taking care of each other? You want to age down characters and write kid fic where they learn to face the challenges of the world and it's just so cute and you love them so much even if nothing really bad happens? I promise you that my non-fandom parents are gonna be like "why are you spending your time on that" and again, if you throw in the "is this real people" (it isn't, but that is a delicate thing to explain), you're looking at people staring at you in discomprehension and backing away.
Shippy stuff. Again, one of the honourable fandom traditions. You just love your guys and you want to write about how much they love each other (or maybe make it tragic about how only one person can make it out of the cactus ring). You spent all this time thinking about their feelings writing it out. You write out a kiss scene. It makes you flail happily. Most people don't do that! Absolutely fun to do? Yes! Something you can bring up as an ice breaker at the company potluck? Probably not! We are too much into the characters, and that's fine, but it's still gonna look a bit odd from the outside!
Plotty gen. You're writing an entire new story, but you're taking existing characters for it? Like it's original fiction, but you're using existing characters? Why not just write original fiction <I have had this conversation. Oh, you're writing a story about minecraft characters, and they— they get tortured? Like it starts with them being tortured? <also a fun conversation to be in.
I'm mostly thinking about this from the fanfiction side, but art, meta— we are just getting into things way too much. We're spending hours on this stuff. We drew the creators minecraft sonas in maid dresses. There are millions of words of fiction on the archive about every conceivable universe of good/bad things happeing to the characters. It is a primary hobby, where I could be learning piano or paying attention to sports. And I'm not, and like, that's fine.
I am here to tell you that people absolutely might find what we're doing weird, and also it's entirely fine. I just ran a poll about the sexiest minecraft character that got 68k votes on the most voted poll. And then I had to explain that to my doctor to explain why I didn't really have a normal baseline for the past week to compare to. (Doctor visibly thought it was weird but he was also like "you go" because he's a good doctor, but I had to start with explaining minecraft because he knew NOTHING about what I was talking about.) You just gotta accept that fandom is for a small segment of the population, we are all having fun with ourselves, and it's for us, it's not for the general population, and stop trying to make it palatable to people who don't care to understand. People on this site keep saying "racist white boys" and then they don't have the intellectual curiosity to pursue further as to why maybe that's not true, having a boundaries post is not going to make them nicer. It's fine. They're being jerks, we're just having fun.
And like, stop trying to get the creator to sign off on it. Accept that sometimes we're being weird and they can look at it if they want to see the weird fanatics going too hard with the characters. They will tell us if we're doing something they want to stop associating with their name, and up until that point, just accept that what we're doing is weird, and have fun with it.
We're weird.
Be more weird 2k23.
Have fun with it.
I wrote a time travel AU in DMs with a friend last night about a bird man and a minecraft piglin. Not normal. It's FINE.
