Good news! Our favorite pair of Sandhill cranes have successfully hatched two colts again this year. They look to be just a few weeks old.

I’ve enjoyed watching these diligent parents raise babies over the past four years. Hoping to watch these two cute colts grow up strong like their siblings before them; with parents like these they’ve got a great head start.

[qpids-bow]

Baba Yaga, Arthur Aguefort, Tectonia Karkovnya and Plug Strutt all occupy a specific genre of character and I’m not quite sure what the Venn diagram looks like but it’s fun to think about

[haveyouseenthismovie-poll]

Hello, all!

I don’t know how widely popular these were, but a while ago people used to make “favorite character sorters” for various media they liked. These were websites where each character from the aforementioned media would be pit against each other in a 1v1 “battle” and you would pick your favorite between the two until you finally had a ranked list of every character, from your favorite to least favorite.

So… I made one of those, but for every movie from this blog that’s received a majority “yes” vote! You can access it by clicking here. Below is a screenshot of what it looks like:

It can take a little while to complete due to the number of movies on it, but I think it’s fun if you’re into this kinda thing :) I also think this could be used as inspiration for more versus polls on this blog, so, if you find any interesting match-ups while doing this, feel free to post them and tag them with “#hystmp sorter” and I might make your match-up into a poll for this blog!

Below is my top 20 that I got from doing this, if anyone’s interested; feel free to use that tag to post your top movies, too!

I completely forgot live was today, what's the cliffnotes? What's the deets on the pale garden? How does New Guy work?

Hi! Cliff Notes are:

New biome: The Pale Garden!

> Overworld dense forest biome > Features a brand new wood type called “pale oak” and it’s basically white wood :D and the “growth-style” of pale oaks mimic dark oaks, so there’s a lot of wood per tree > The canopy of the biome is thicker than a normal forest, the grass type is really desaturated, and it’s very graveyard-esque— they’re definitely going for an empty, vacant, spooky “something is wrong here” vibe. > New foliage! Hanging moss and Pale Moss Carpet (that, when placed next to vertical blocks, put little vines growing up the side of walls and stuff) > It’s safe during the day, but at Night the new mob can spawn, and there are new ambient sounds (creaking, crunching, very horror-esque sounds).

New Mob: The Creaking!

> They only spawn at night > They work like Weeping Angels— they’re completely still when you’re looking at them, and they scramble towards you as soon as you look away. > They deal relatively low damage, but damage can add up when there are multiple ganging up on the player > They do not take damage at all, but are instead linked to nearby “Creaking Hearts,” which are special-texture wood blocks nestled in the trunks of nearby trees. When you destroy/mine the Creaking Hearts, The Creeking mob will shatter, so they’re more like puppets. So this is a whole new way to manipulate/defeat this hostile mob :D > You can silk touch the Creaking Hearts, meaning you can place them down again and spawn a Creaking.

In my personal opinion it was really discouraging to see how negative the comments section was after genuinely enjoying the live/video (They had a cute animated section to tease the reveal of the new mob that I thought was really cute too, I couldn’t stop smiling), and I do think there are some small things that could be added to make the new biome a little more immersive or unique (new leaf textures, new tree-growth-style, a new flower type, fog, particle effects, things like that that could enhance the atmosphere!), but I honestly think this is all really exciting and it gives a lot of life to the Minecraft world-building/ecosystem :3

(In other news, they added hardcore to bedrock, gave some insights on the minecraft movie set building, and did a cool little community-feature pre-show. After the reveals above, they did an after-show where they went more in depth on all of the new blocks!)

Also, if I missed anything, feel free to add stuff in reblogs/comments/etc!

Y’all get a sneak at some of the new Haikyuu prints I’m powering through for Metrocon!

[claypigeonpottery]

this is only like half the boxes I’ve packed!

thanks everyone for your support, and for being patient, I’m shipping some things out tomorrow and more either later this week or early next week.

for the people whose mugs need to be refired, I won’t be able to get to the studio til next week! but the kiln tech has been really understanding and helpful so I don’t think it’ll be long once I can get the mugs there.

10 hour mark for DATV:

Neve is probably my favorite companion so far (who could’ve seen that coming)

The dialogue is a little…odd. Especially between companions. It just kinda feels like everyone gets along and disagreements never impact the story in an substantial way

Antiva is beautiful but WOW it was buggy for me

Morrigan is wayyy too nice. And “my old friend solas”? There has to be some lore reason for this we find out. Where is my mean wife

The soundtrack sometimes feels incredibly out of place but other times it’s great - I liked it best in Arlathan!

There’s only one part I’ve been through so far I would count as “dark and gritty” and it was over way too quickly.

Léa is making a Q&A on her twitter, i’ll try to update and translate everything under this post

-How many admins were there for each language ? Cause only two for french is Crazy

« I don’t know every admin’s nationality but the french were the one with the least representation (only two admins) before the koreans arrived (only one admin currently) »

-are the admins not allowed to speak with the content creators at all when they’re off stream? because i’ve seen that chayanne and tallulahs admins talk with phil and the same with leo’s admin & foolish off stream

« They were higher so they had access to the ticket system and could speak with Phil. I would say, we weren't allowed to speak in private with ccs, but some of us did it anyway. I was just exposed by Pierre when he leaked »

-Were you able to talk about the working conditions with other admins ? Pomme’s for exemple ?

« Yes, lots of admins that i won’t name for their safety. But generally, a lot of them agree with me »

-Are you allowed to give you opinion on the time the events happened ?

« I was never asked about it aha »

-I was wondering: do you know how far the “chain of command” goes? As in, do your supervisors have a direct line to quackity? Or is there someone above them making choices? I want to better understand how things are managed

« There is one big admin that took big decisions. Administrators, coordinators, assistants (that's what I was), then actors, builders, devs.... »

-Was the egg disappearances arc likely to be months long ?

« They had no idea what they were doing »
