Love how being on the Green and Black small councils must be incredibly aggravating for exactly opposite reasons (jackass fratboy king who wants to go personally stab whoever is most conveniently available versus queen who doesn't actually seem to appreciate that winning a civil war is going to involve some fighting)
And neither of them have shown the smallest iota of interest in, like, what they would do as monarch and why they would be better at it.

Bad: I don’t think people understand the effect QSMP had on some of the streamers in terms of like… The real raw mental impact, so I’m gonna set the stage for you. [...] Imagine that you were given a friend to play Minecraft with — like your best friend — BUT if this person dies, if they die in the game, you never get to talk to them again. Can you imagine what that’s like?
Bad: If you did not live through the QSMP, if you did not live through that, it almost sounds like, crazy. But I don’t think people realize how much of a joyous experience the Eggs were. They were SO awesome! They were literally so awesome to just hang out with and spend time with.
Bad: I’m not saying I regret it. To this day, I loved the experience. I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat. Even knowing how everything went, I would still do it all over again. [...] I would still do it all over again, because — even knowing like, all the trauma and suffering and stuff like that — because it was just… It was just that fun, it was just that fun.
Tumblr media
Earlier today during his stream, Bad shared his experience and thoughts about the Eggs and the significant emotional (and traumatic) impact they had on him and his fellow QSMP members.
This clip a very edited-down version since his commentary was ~13 minutes long, so I highly recommend checking out Bad's VOD if you have the time. (Timestamp: 47:36 - 1:00:14)
[ Full Transcript ↓ ]
———
Bad: To be fair Chat, I really think the QSMP... I don't think anyone really can relate to it, Chat. It's something that's so... I've told people this before, like– but it's hard to understand. Right? Like...
Where was I? Sorry Chat, I'm losing my train of thought. Look, let me explain Chat– here's the dealio, ok? Here's the dealio, and this is what I mean when I say like, it's important to keep this in mind, Chat. Ok? It's important to keep this in mind:
I don’t think people understand the effect that the QSMP had on like, some of the streamers, in terms of like… The real raw mental impact, so I’m gonna set the stage for you. This is the analogy I’ve given to every person who I’ve like, shared this with. Imagine you meet somebody– [He hears a strange noise] What the fudge was that? Did you hear that?
Anyway– Chip! The story I was just relaying to Chat, Chip, was this: I was sharing this story with them, I said–  I was giving them an analogy. 
Imagine Chat, for example, imagine that you were… playing Minecraft, with like– you were given a friend to play Minecraft with, Chat, like your best friend, and [unintelligible] were like, “Hey, you get to play Minecraft with this person, right? BUT if this person dies – they’re currently your best friend, Chip – but if they die in the game, you never get to talk to them again. Ever again.” Can you imagine what that’s like, Chip?
I don’t think a lot of people understand like, what that does, right? I’m not gonna say that like, it creates this situation, Chip, that like, messes with your head, but it– Chip – but it totally, totally does, Chip. It messes with your head! It literally puts you in a position where you’re second-guessing and thinking about everything, Chip! You’re thinking about EVERYTHING Chip! Ok? And that’s the problem, Chip– is you turn into a paranoid monster because of it, Chip! Like, you don’t understand Chip– I was- I was so afraid of every dirt block, I used to carry a shovel with me Chip, and I would specifically right-click dirt blocks that looked suspicious because mines, Chip– mines could not be shoveled! Like, I was crazy, Chip! But here’s the problem, Chip: that craziness is still there. I’m genuinely like–
I remember thinking Chip, that I would one day– I was like, “I’m going to move past–” here, let’s go up here, Chip. I remember thinking one day Chip, I was like, “I’m gonna move past the underground base, one of these days. You know, one of these days, I feel like I’ll be able to grow and achieve the desire to build a base that doesn’t have to be underground.” But I don’t think it’s possible now Chip, because I think… I just don’t know. I feel like the paranoia– there’s still like, residual leftover trauma from that situation, Chip.
But here’s the problem Chip: I don’t think I don’t think– I don’t think people understand it. Like, I just really don’t. But I also don’t blame them Chip, ‘cuz I don’t think it’s possible to fully understand it if you haven’t lived through it. Like, if you did not live through the QSMP… I’m talking about the QSMP, I don’t- I don’t know if that was obvious– if you did not live through that, it almost sounds like, crazy. But I don’t think people realize how much of a joyous experience like, the Eggs were. Right? I don’t think people realize it. Like, they were SO awesome! They were literally so awesome to just hang out with and spend time with, Chip. So, it’s just one of those things that–
[He’s interrupted by a loud rumble of thunder above them]
Did lightning just strike here? Is it thunderstorming out…? But anyway, Chip. That’s the food for thought.
But that’s the problem– Like, every time it rains in Minecraft, I have to like, look at the sky, and I get this weird, like, second--hand vibe because of the trauma. The trauma, Chip! The trauma is real! But that’s the point– I’m not saying I regret it. I, to this day Chip, I loved the experience. I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat. Even knowing how everything went, I would still do it all over again. 
[He falls down] Dangit, don’t come over here Chip, ‘cuz I’m coming back up! Ok.
I would still do it all over again, because — even knowing like, all the trauma and suffering  and stuff like that — because it was just… It was just that fun, Chip, it was just that fun. I really wi– I don’t think it’s ever gonna be possible, Chip, to give people that same energy, like that same experience. You know what I mean, Chip? I don’t think it’s ever gonna be possible again. Like, EVER.
Because… because like, one: I will say on one level Chip, I will say on one level, like– it’s sort of emotionally like… It’s emotionally devastating, and I think to actually go through that– and this is where like, if I ever do end up going to a– see a therapist, if I ever do end up going to see a therapist at any point, I’ll talk it over with them and be like, “Hey, what do you think about this?” Because I genuinely think on one level, like– it’s created this fear of forming attachments because of like, how things can go. You know what I mean? Like, the fear of getting attached to something and then potentially losing it. Like, it’s- it’s a genuine thing. I think people forget about that.
Like, at the end of the day, everything was RP, right? On the server. You know what I mean? Like, everything was RP, Chip. BUT at the same point, even though it was RP Chip, it was still like– there the reality of you were still playing like, with another person, and you were still getting that experience, and it felt like you were genuinely attached to someone and you didn’t want anything bad to happen to them. It was GENUINELY stressful, Chip.
But at the same point, I don’t regret it, and I don’t think it was a bad experience. I’m– 
Sometimes in life Chip, you go through stuff, and maybe you have a certain amount of like, things that like, can happen, that you’re like, “You know what, maybe this wasn’t a good thing that this happened,” but at the same point, you still aren’t necessarily upset about it, because… it’s like growing as a person, right? Here’s the thing Chip; even bad situations, Chip, can lead to an overall good outcome. Like–
Even if you’re going through something bad Chip, just because a bad thing happens doesn’t mean that only bad things have to come from that. That’s one of the things I tell people all the time, Chip, is that if you go through a bad situation, you can learn from it, and you can use your experience to help others. And you can be that– you can be, at the worst-case scenario, you can be someone for other people who are going through that same experience to lean on when they go through that.I think there’s a certain amount of comfort that comes from that; from knowing no matter how bad your situation is, you’re not the only person who’s experienced it. You know what I mean?
#Badboyhalo#BBH#Bad#QSMP#January 8 2025#Edited#I know folks are going to add their two cents on this subject in the tags / comments / replies (and as always you're welcome to do that)#But for the sake of my sanity please don't be an asshole to any of the CCs / ex-admins / fellow fans / anyone else. Thanks#Most folks here don't need a ''Don't be a dumbass'' reminder but I had to block someone for that earlier and it was a bit disappointing#This is going to be a Tumblr exclusive clip because I don't trust Twitter to have common sense or common decency about this topic#Tumblr exclusive#Anyways business aside – that black line on the side is just part of Bad's stream btw. He just Has That#Took too long for this to render otherwise I'd edit it out because it's annoying#I'm just realizing this screenshot doesn't even have Dapper OTL but it's the best one I have so I gotta work with what I got#Honestly; I still miss QSMP dearly... I love the core intent of the project and the multicultural exchange#I love all the language barriers that were broken and I loved all the stories that were told and watching beautiful friendships bloom#But I am still so angry and disappointed about how things ended and all the poor communication and the admin situation as a whole#It's a complicated feeling#I agree with pretty much everything Bad says here#It's ironic that he uses that analogy because I've said almost the exact same thing when explaining why losing any Egg was so devastating#We weren't just mourning for the characters. We were mourning for the admins too#I'll never forget that last stream with Tazercraft and Richas; and Pac ending stream in tears#I wish they'd done away with the Egg life system. I wish they'd done a lot of things differently#If the project ever does come back in some shape or form I hope they are more transparent about things and have better communication#I dunno how I'd feel personally. They would have to do a lot of work regaining people's trust#And frankly I don't think they'll ever regain that trust from a large portion of the community#I remember near the start of QSMP I saw a comment from a fan that simply said ''QSMP; please don't leave me feeling bitter''#I think about that comment a lot

Mod Rae here, doing some trimming down of the backlog during a quiet period whilst WFH by trying to remove duplicate submissions (mostly songs that have already been posted -- there were SO MANY submissions for Pepper Steak alone -- but if there are [makes up an example] seven entries for the Battle theme from Pokemon Red/Blue and I spot that, I'm slicing the six redundant ones after the first submission).
Anyway, this is a preface to me posting this before I have to cull it because it made me laugh out loud when I saw it.

the qsmp resistance will forever fucking haunt me. you're telling me they had to ability to reawaken and forcibly recall lost memories from people like sleeper agents when it was convenient for Them, they had info on the mystery twins; their parents, their past growing up on the island, what happened to each of them once they left, and they still refused to elaborate when asked. they were counting on cellbit remembering what he saw which made him flee from the island as a child into war, not for his benefit but for their own, citing that it was 'such a shame' they couldn't get him to work for them.
what the fuck was up with THAT

We don't talk enough about that moment in the Citadel DLC where Brooks is complaining about all the paperwork she has to file with the Alliance regarding getting shot while on duty and Shepard responds, completely seriously;
"It's easier to just write up a template beforehand"

Okay, social media hiatus over! I'm back!
And there's lots of queue'd posts rn too, because fun fact I'm changing around some of my meds rn, and it's mostly going well, except my executive function and focus has fallen below what I need to yknow sit down and do my actual job, and hit instead at "just enough to queue a bunch of good news posts"

my capacity to see a bad fandom take and just blithely say 'okay! I disagree' internally and move on because it's not my responsibility or concern that someone else thinks that has leveled up so tremendously over the years. I haven't quite escaped the pit of misery yet but I think I'm getting there

Phil: Ooh, follow-up question: does Cucurucho count as an employee?
[Fred and the Security Guard look at each other]
Phil: You looked at- you looked at each other there like you had to think about it.
[Fred hands him a book that says "Yes"]
Phil: In that case, yes, but I'll change my answer. [The clip transitions to a scene a few moments later] He lies all the time-
[Fred hands him another book that says "Although I don't know who is Cucurucho."]
Phil: ...Excuse me? You don't know who Cucurucho is?

Phil: Oh, follow-up question: does Cucurucho count as an employee?
[Fred and the Security Guard look at each other]
Phil: You looked at- you looked at each other there like you had to think about it.
[Fred hands him a book that says "Yes"]
Phil: In that case, yes, I'll change my answer. [The clip transitions to a scene a few moments later] He lies all the time-
[Fred hands him another book that says "Although I don't know who is Cucurucho."]
Phil: ...Excuse me? You don't know who Cucurucho is? [Fred shakes his head] He looks like a bear, he's got a smiley face? He talks like this: Ha ha ha. Disfruta la isla. You've never heard of him? He always shows up at really weird times. Do you call him something different?
[Fred hands him a book that says "The Census Bureau? I've never met it."]
Phil: So are the Census Bureau employees of the Federation? [Fred fidgets, but doesn't nod or shake his head] Is that a yes? Like, nod?
[Fred hands him a book that says "Anyways who's doing the interview here, you or me? Let's continue."]
Phil: I'm trying to answer your questions more accurately and you're just giving me curveballs dude!
[Fred hits him with a frying pan]
Phil: STOP WITH THE PAN, IT HURTS!

I haven't really worked on much the last couple of days. I may be suffering from burnout due to working on backgrounds one after another, and the effort has made me tired....well, if I'm being honest, I've just been tired in general XD. As far as finding motivation, I haven't been forcing it and have just been chillin' until it decides to come back.
I was hoping the burnout would go away before the weekend cause I'd personally like to get back to drawing and finishing up the bgs, but life might have other plans. Some last-minute bills have come up that I accidentally forgot about, normally I'm better at remembering and write the dates down, but ehh, it happens. I might have to go in to work the weekend anyway. So I don't see myself being very protective this weekend. A mild hiccup in my plans lol so bear with me guys. Hopefully I'll get my motivation back soon, amongst everything else.

another plurality wildcard for your collection: people get randomly assigned into duos (outside of their alliances) and one piggybacks on the other. they can change who's walking and who's piggybacking but they cannot escape each other. person on piggyback is harder to reach in pvp but cannot hit other players; person walking can control where both of them go and can pvp, but is more likely to get hit. it would be so unbalanced but so funny...
It WOULD be unbalanced, but that's also the average plural experience, so

I don't know who richas admin is and I don't want to know, but I hope they are getting something out of this because it's incredible how well played richas is
It's not praised ENOUGH how incredible at role-playing they are and how well they know how to control this little cubito egg. The way he moves, stares, shakes his head, how the admin does something different for each personality and streamer they are playing, it's so AJJDJJDK AMAZING
Romero Richas made another appearance during tazercraft stream, and its also really cool how quickly they noticed something was different just because of the way he stared and walked around
Anyway, Richas admin supremacy
