[A sad violin song plays over an image of a sad hamster]

Pac: This doesn't have anything to do with me – I wear a blue sweatshirt, you're crazy, this mouse doesn't even have a sweatshirt, this hamster! [Reading chat] Am I a depressed hamster?

[ Transcript continued ↓ ]*

–

Pac: Actually– that's fine! I embrace that idea – of course I'm going to be depressed, are you crazy? [He hits his desk, then starts counting off people on his fingers] Fit is gone, Richarlyson is gone, Ramon is gone, Bagi and Empanada who were always there when we were there are also gone, I haven't seen them! It's just me and Tubbo, and sometimes Philza shows up.

Pac: I lost Chume Labs, I lost the Favela, I lost Murder Mystery, I lost Ilha Chume Labs, it's crazy! Look at how much I've lost, and I've gained nothing! Of course I'm going to be depressed, are you crazy?! How am I supposed to be happy?!

Pac: [Reading chat] "You have us Pac," that's true, thank you. No, that's true, sorry.

Okay so lately I've seen two big discussions:

a) How content creators are "invading" fan spaces and interacting with fan content, and how they should know this isn't acceptable. How they certainly shouldn't interact with /neg content, especially in front of an audience, but even with positive things like fanart and memes they should keep it to themselves and either enjoy in silence or just stay away altogether

b) If you love a piece of art or a fic, comment on it! reblog it! Don't hide your appreciation in a private chat where the author never gets to see, here's a story about someone who decided to delete all their fics because they found out that they had a bunch of people enthusiastically chatting about them in a private discord but none of those people understood how much it means to an author or artist to get that kind of feedback directly

...Y'all seeing the problem here? Obviously, there is an extreme on each end of this spectrum. Yeah, I'm not a fan of a content creator taking fan content and using it to mock the fanbase (I'm looking at you, Steven Moffat) and obviously there is some discernment that authors etc need to have because if you read enough fic about your work there's a chance you can get accused of stealing ideas from your fans.

And at the other end, an author who finds out about a thriving discord screaming about their work but never gets any comments or direct feedback has every right to be frustrated and hurt by that. If they choose to stop writing for those "fans" then that is 100% their prerogative.

But you can't hold both extremes. You can't demand that CCs stay out of fandom spaces and never engage with the cringy or critical stuff -- fans put it out there to be seen, and CCs have every right to engage with things that are made about their content. And if you DO want to demand that, then you can't turn around and say "reblog, don't just like!" and "authors need your feedback! comments feed them! they deserve to know that you enjoyed what they put so much work into!"

The right to engage with people who read/view/enjoy your work doesn't go away when your audience reaches a certain perceived size. There is a nuanced conversation to be had about what's good for the mental health of a creator, and where fans can go too far, but generally speaking: if a fan puts it out into the world, there is literally no reason why the person they're a fan of should have to not engage. Creators who respect fandom hashtags and such are commendable, but that is not and should never be the expectation.

If you don't want someone to see it, don't put it on the internet, plain and simple.

Stop trying to gatekeep the people who gave you the storyworlds you're playing in to begin with. Sometimes they're going to be assholes about it, because humans are unfortunately like that. But that's their right, just like it's your right to create cringy memes and, shall we say, "wildly inventive" fic about the stories and characters you're borrowing from them. (And, important side note, it's also your right to stop being a fan of that franchise/person/concept if you don't like how they interact.)

Moral of the story: comment on fic, tag the art, and stop freaking out every time a CC sees your insane tier list that has their name on it.

Log Cabin is going live later and since you liked the sun pattern I gave out with Rituals, here are the main textures I used for it.

If you make CC, these are for you to use as you please. They are as maxis match as I could manage. Hope they help out fellow creators!

The birch is a photobash of pictures I took, the other two are made from scratch, so no credit necessary at all here :]

[concorp]

going to beg people ahead of time to put purgatory 2 stuff in a separate tag unless it’s lore relevant to the qsmp. (or if it’s really funny) but like. no constant liveblogging of it in the main qsmp tag without also tagging it with something that can be blacklisted. please.

Based/reply on this Twitter post.

My favorite character in Parkour Civilization is EMF by a large margin, the second movie would not have happened if not for him. Although my favorite thing in regards to him is that he was accidental. CC!Evbo mentioned that he was looking for a "guard character" and found this skin and used it without knowing that it was a fellow content creator named TaiMC. It happens, but the reason it makes me laugh is because Tai and ClownPierce know each other, and Evbo and Tai also know a lot of the Lifesteal cast and have made videos with them individually.

The saddest thing is that despite being a very loved member of the cast, I don't think most people know about this or cc!Tai in general. So I'm here to put the record straight.

GO WATCH TAI ON YOUTUBE

He has very good content, especially if you like stuff similar to ClownPierce or PVP-SMP content. If you were looking for stuff more like Evbo's scripted content, this is not it. Most of his content is focused on Strength SMP, which is a PVP focus SMP in which you get stronger every time you kill someone. It has a couple mods here and there, so it's not basic maxed-out sword fights.

The only heads up is that EMF and Tai's voices don't match AT ALL.

If you'll humor me for a second - wow, I am really proud of myself for how far I've with both my editing and decorating! The top picture is from May 2023. The bottom one is from July 2024. Night and day!

It's an old story but I'm so active in the community I learned about it only now. And I didn't knew I need to say this, but it turns out that some people wasn't taught basic rules of behavior by their parents. And specifically "ask before you take someone's toys". I'm okay when people use parts of my meshes for their cc if they tell me they will use them before I see the end product somewhere on the internet. You know, the courtessy of it all. But I really don't like it when someone improves my cc. And by "improves" I mean makes a dress shorter, sleeves less puffier, and so on. And then puts this fixed item for download. You want to do it - please, do it for your personal use. Do I need to explain how displeased an autor can be when his project, that took quite a time to make and that was made with a particular desigh in mind, was improved like that? Not fixed in means of some perfomance issues but changed on a minimum aesthetic level. If it's hard to understand try to imagine it's not a stupid Sims 4 little pixel dress but a painting, or a sculpture or a crochet project. And someone improved it by cutting out part of it or adding couple strokes.

For me, making cc for this game is a form of creativity, and these improvements are killing all my joy from the process, as well as my desire to make cc. Because I sit here and think 'what will be improved next time' and 'am I here creating material for someone to improve'. I know I don't put leg long T.O.U in my cc posts. But it's just me believing in humanity and not me saying "yeah, do whatever you want, I'll be fine with everything".

I watched Jacks stream oh my gosh...

I thought I could handle a Dsmp stream in 2024 but nope. just- that felt SO much like just a stream that would happen in like 2021. the wandering around falling into random creeper holes, chat telling jack to get philza to help him, and to find michael, the mobs interrupting and how unplanned it all was. unscripted lore my beloved forever and ever.

the way that it's like in tommy and jacks conversation- they're talking about things in character that also relates to (presumably) their feelings in real life. just gosh...

when jack and tommy said their goodbyes and jack looked back at technos house to see the sun rising- like its so perfect in a way that the incidental roleplay always was. Like in the way I know I'm reading into it but it still works and it feels like real life when something happens and you find yourself in that moment and life looks almost like a movie- everything in it's proper place for the scene- but it's all just coincidence. the sun didn't rise because a writer wrote that it would. the sun just rises and falls and the conversation just happens to end at that exact moment.

idk just- I really felt it. It captured the feeling of peak dreamsmp that I've missed so much.

I don't even have a problem with nuke ending personally I think it's perfectly fine as an ending. How I've always seen it is: Everyones been hurt by everyone and violence begets violence so the great final act is nukes that will kill everyone that have all ready been launched so it can't be taken back. Then in the prison tommy sees the early parts of the server through Dreams pov and sees the good that was there at the start and how much that has been corrupted since and he wants that simplicity again (he and dream were even friends at one point) before everything went terrible for everyone. Dream turns his back on his plan that he's been building up to for so long cause what he really wants is the same thing as tommy. for things to be simple like at the start. but it's too late- its too far gone. the nukes have already been launched there's no going back. just the hope that maybe in another world things could've been different.

(also the added context of nuke ending being an elaborate character/relationship/map reset to setup a season 2 that never happened.)

So there's my nuke ending defense lol. I know it wasn't very popular with a vast amount of people and that's okay too.

I think ending something like dsmp was never gonna be easy or satisfy everybody, with how many individual povs there are and storylines. I always expected there to be things left unfinished. (unfinished symphony ;) Even if that's pretty unsatisfying for us viewers. (there's a particular stream I really wish had happened with foolish, dream, and eret)

idk there's a post I always remember when thinking about the ending that was like: "Maybe they couldn't write a happier ending at that time in their lives." (super paraphrasing) obviously talking about techno's passing. it's a bit assumptive but the CC's have talked publicly about how much that has affected them (of course it did). With something like that I imagine giving your minecraft server/roleplay character a happy ending is the last thing on your mind.

Todays stream felt like grief and nostalgia and complicated feelings for a time that has passed but still left it's marks on you:

“are you happier?” “I'm getting there”

like, that just says it all.

[nanowatzophina]

Not to be needy--

but can we please get a character creator demo for The Veilguard??

All these news articles talking about it and hyping up the hair just has me like...

"Yeah, yeah. Can I have it now? You already sold me. I just wanna use it..."

[aniraklova]

I want to be real right now again, I want to stop make and release cc at all, but sadly my inner artistic self stops and calms me down. So I just keep doong it the way it is right now, I want to - cool, I don't want to - bye. Sadly, but truth idk why people do not value free cc creators enough, but yeah rather will praise the paywalling bullshit <3

fundraising for palestine!

if you feel pushed to help palestinians with donations after the ICJ ruling as well as the news that many western nations have paused funding for the UNRWA, i hope i can give you a little incentive.

send me a screenshot of a donation you made to a mutual aid fund or charity for palestine (here's a link to a tumblr post with a variety of different funds/charities), and i'll post a piece of cc for every $20 raised. i'll stack the amounts donated, so if four people donate $5 that'll count as one piece of cc!

if possible, please make sure that your receipt screenshot has a date in it. and if you made a donation earlier this week, feel free to submit anyway! i'll count everything back until 1/21/24.

(also, if you made a $10 donation to esims for gaza you can get a piece of art from the cartoonist cooperative)

thank you if you decide to make a donation!

Total: $62
