i love trying to rationalize bigB because sometimes there is an explanation, it's just the most confusing moral compass ever. "why did bigB form an allyship with the villies" well you see with the other rejects close to being eliminated, bigB felt that they were no longer a good longterm commitment and wanted another team to fall back on. gem actually offered allyship to him earlier in the season. "why did bigB just arbitrarily lie to grian then" well you see bigB only promised the rejects that he wouldn't lie to them and grian is not a reject. "but he's trying to build trust with him??" yeah i mean bigB also lies to the rejects sometimes so like. you can't trust him to not do that. that'd be silly.

I love how everyone totally underestimates scar and sees him as a silly goof even when he’s at his most dangerous and then there’s big b who over corrects in the most hilarious way by putting horror music in every time scar talks

Gonna talk about Jimmy and Scar in the Life Series because I find them interesting.

As far as I can tell, Scar is only bad at Minecraft when he can afford to be. He'll die as many times as he does on Hermitcraft because he can. The only consequence might be a few lost items, but there's a point where despawned items hardly matter to Hermitcrafters because they've collected so much resources. Scar will also lose lives quickly when he's green in the Life Series because he can afford to. He still has lives, so he can let his guard down. The one notable exception to this is Secret Life. He kept his green life for a while, only losing chunks of hearts quickly at times. In any case, when Scar is red, he is competent. He gets kills, he's a menace, he survives for longer than he does on his other lives. He can be incredibly good at the game when he wants to be.

I don't think Jimmy's that bad at the game either. He's just perhaps the most unlucky person I've ever stumbled across at times. Take Past Life for example. One death per episode up until episode five, purely because he was misfortunate enough to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Only his first death was his fault, and that was only because the water mechanics were wonky in earlier versions. This unluckiness continues across all the seasons. The one person to final die in the bunker in 3rd Life despite being with another red, the only person to start with two lives in Last Life and not be gifted more, the only person to have his soulmate die in Double Life before he'd found him (I don't think that was Tango's fault either; that creeper came out of nowhere), a victim to other people's mobs in Secret Life, one of the first people to die to their snails in Wild Life, etc. There were moments in Limited Life that were also unfortunate, mostly consisting of his team accidentally murdering him.

I'm not certain why I'm thinking about this right now, but there you go. A post on Scar and Jimmy's occasional incompetence and why that might not actually be due to a lack of skill.

behold he's real

context: there's a new TV show where the main character is called Joe hermit and it's killing what little SEO Joe had so he told us to post about him

the main issue? his face camera was 50 pixels tall and that is the smallest pixel size will allow text

being anti ai is making me feel like in going insane. "you asked for thoughts about your characters backstory and i put it into chat gpt for ideas". studies have proven its making people dumber. "i asked ai to generate this meal plan". its causing water shortages where its data centers are built. "ill generate some pictures for the dnd campaign". its spreading misinformation. "meta, generate an image of this guy doing something stupid". its trained off stolen images, writing, video, audio. "i was talking with my snapchat ai-" theres no way to verify what its doing with the information it collects. "youtube is impletmenting ai based age verification". my work has an entire graphics media department and has still put ai generated motivational posters up everywhere. ai playlists. ai facial verification. google ai microsoft ai meta ai snapchat ai. everyone treats it as a novelty. every treats it as a mandatory part of life. am i the only one who sees it? am i paranoid? am i going insane? jesus fucking christ. if i have to hear one more "well at least-" "but it does-" "but you can-" im about to lose it. i shouldnt have to jump through hoops to avoid the evil machine. have you no principles? no goddamn spine? am i the weird one here?

one thing that pisses me off greatly is the (schorlaly) misunderstanding of éowyn. i've read too many papers mentionning that éowyn was weak and that tolkien didn't write strong women and?? i'm so confused. éowyn is one of the strongest characters. she killed the witch-king and once she accomplished her goal (to gain valour in battle) she chose a peaceful life because there was no need to fight anymore. this is the opposite to weakness. she chose peace over violence?? weak people are the ones who choose violence over peace

Alright chat, remember to be respectful about Lizzie and Joel's kid! Do not theorize about the name, or try to get more information out of them when they stream/on their comments!! It was already weird seeing people theorize about Lizzie being pregnant. They will share whatever they want to share. Just let them enjoy this time. Being a new parent is tiring, do not add to that stress!

That said, I'm so happy for them, they are going to be wonderful parents <3

Your account is really awesome and you make me view Minecraft in a totally different way, every time you talk about Minecraft you make it so poetic and tragic and I think thats so cool!!

Anyway, I just think you’re super amazing!!!!!

anon YOU'RE SUPER AMAZING!! I'm always astounded by how many people love the way I see that world. Minecraft is a narrative with so much potential and this is a community with so much kindness.

The beauty of Minecraft is that it's just like real life. You're right, anon: it's a tragic world. We will be hurt, we will lose everything we have, and we will fight monsters we aren't able to stop. But Minecraft has another key similarity to our lives in that we can keep going.

Most of us won't wield swords or battle dragons, but we will learn how to persevere, and every time we get knocked down we get a little stronger, a little smarter, a little more experienced. If you stick it out long enough, you'll be able to pick out all the beautiful things you missed before. If you stay around long enough you'll read the poem, and the universe will let you know you are loved, you are loved, you are loved. If you stay around long enough you'll find your place and meet friends and be okay and the universe will let you know you are loved, you are loved, you are loved.

The game is about being human, about being alive.

Sometimes the universe will tell you it loves you through the shuffling leaves of the summer trees. Sometimes by the light that fell from the crisp night sky of winter, and sometimes zeros and ones, through the electricity of the world, through the scrolling words on a screen at the end of a dream.

The universe said the darkness you fight is within you, and the universe said the light you seek is within you, and the universe said you are not alone, and the universe said I love you because you are love.
