realizing that people who equate cynicism with intellectual rigor are often just being lazy and pathetic has been so helpful tbh

[captainjonnitkessler]

Breaking my hiatus to find refuge from my conservative coworkers. Loudly talking about how "both sides are bad, they're preying on our division so we won't notice when they fuck us over!" And then immediately and without awareness pivoting to "and now the extreme left is talking about CRAZY ideas like taxing the rich and letting men compete in women's sports! Thank God Trump won't stand for any of that!"

Send strength, it's already been a bad day and if I encounter one more obstacle I'm setting this place on fire with all of us inside it

Alright I love love love Skizz but why did people for FALSE & Skizz instead of False & H???? What???

It is because False gets overlooked even in a False centric poll. This is a pattern. Also sorry for using your ask as a vent post lol.

I love Skizz and his energy, I think he's awesome with people, he is certainly good at the whole "duo thing" buuuut this is not a Skizz duo poll. Or even a Hermitcraft duo poll. It is a False duo poll. I think people voted for Skizz because of Skizz, not False, or even Skizz-False. Like yeah it was funny when Skizz held False hostage in the charity event. But are people voting for moments like that or do they just like Skizz in general?

This was also what I was trying to see with the False MCC poll— 17 is of course iconic as a whole, and especially for Grian, and I would definitely rank it very high in a Hermit MCC poll (possibly right behind Blue9, sorry Orange10). But False had better performances in 29 and 10, and 9 had better chemistry than 17 because she didn't really get spoken over in 9. Or 10 and 29. (Whereas in 17 it was a Thing enough for Pete to mention it afterwards apparently.) 17 has cool False moments of course— SG the one I remember the most— but people don't really bring that up. So did people vote for 17 in a False centric poll because they liked False's performance in 17 and overall team chemistry (things related to and influenced by False) or because they like 17 in general?

It is not that deep but also seeing False's diminishing relevance in the mainstream HC fandom over the years is kinda... disappointing. Someone who's never watched a hermit on MCCReddit will mention False Supremacy. HBomb's chat loves False. Like I don't even know what happened?? False has been posting regularly, always have, she does her builds and collabs and pranks and infrastructure, she won the first event of the season, outsiders love her, and...? Like don't we love our slay cool #girlboss queen of hearts? Or does she need a different fanon archetype now? The mischievous prankster? The silly wet cat? The healer type who loves animals and gives them stupid names? The competitive warrior? Would you still love me when I'm no longer the designated girlboss of the group or whatever

Like ok yeah this is me being bitchy and a gatekeeper and False isn't even the most underrated hermit and she gets her share of love in fanart and stuff but yeah I've noticed the decline. You've got Redditors mentioning Empires people in the crossover in response to someone asking about Empires but not mentioning one hermit who was actually also in Empires. You've got people talking about "Hermitgals" but they replace False and Stress with Lizzie. You've got the fallout of Demise 2. You've got Redditors talking about Rendoc in relation to Ren like his only relevance is being Doc's friend/collab buddy when False exists and she's his favourite hermit. And you've got the False duo poll. Won't even go into the view counts/ sub counts because that's depressing for what feels like at least a third of the hermits (Cubfan you deserve way more). Doesn't feel good.

Back in 2020/21 she got shat on and her achievements ignored by some DSMP fans and now the same thing is happening but it's worse because it's from some HC fans. The call is coming from inside the house. And once again False isn't even the most overlooked hermit. For example Iskall STILL gets horrific hate comments about how he doesn't "deserve" to be a hermit because he plays VH more.

Hermitcraft is popular. I wish the other third of it is more popular.

People complaining about Tsukasa5 already are pissing me off, because like, it's so unbelievably obvious what this event is trying to do and the fact that people are so hung up on "urgh dur tsukasa strong why can't he do a wall climb".

Like, first of all, a lot of Tsukasa's strength has been used as comedy before and also it's never been said that Tsukasa could specifically do a wall climb before so people calling this a retcon or a stretch is really dumb to me.

Sure we can make jokes about it, but this is not like a serious writing problem or anything.

Also are we just gonna ignore the fact this event is literally just a reference to his 3rd event in a silly trenchcoat. Or the fact that this is obviously meant to be WxS's downtime and training arc to prepare them to face the loose plotpoints in the future?

His inner dialogue when chasing the ninja is very clearly a reference to the whole Pheonix thing, how he can't reach it no matter how hard he tries.

The wall climb is like an extremely fucking on the nose metaphor to him climbing over his issues as an actor.

THERE IS ALSO THE WHOLE THING THAT HINTS THAT TSUKASA CAN ONLY OVERCOME HIS PROBLEMS IF HE HAS HELP FROM OTHERS (AKA tsukasa would've literally BEEN INJURED, if it wasn't for the fact the troupe's leader was there).

In fact this literally followed an event aka Tsukasa 4 where he FAILED to do his role correctly.

It's almost like this event is meant to be a transition point between Tsukasa 4 and 6, where Tsukasa builds up the knwoledge on how to face his problems.

But no this is just mid event because it's very silly and "wow plot is stupid why can't tsukasa wall climb".

WxS fans are slowly just turning into VBS fans in terms of how whiney they're being i swear

Who is the best and who is the worst to sit next to on the plane?

no one could agree who unanimously is the best insisting their seatmate, previous or otherwise, was (ekky→benny, benny→reino, sasha⇆bobby, swaggy→forsy, luosty→mikksy)

but the worst? with a whopping two votes against him (benny, swaggy) is ekky because hes loud and forces guys into joining the poker table 😭😭😭

special mention forsy and mikksy copping out of the question like theyre carebear incarnates and going everyone is the best :)

if you've ever wondered why i turn off reblogs for so many of my posts. well. most of the time it's just a personal post and it feels really weird or invasive when people remove it from its context as some kind of entertainment, and every time in the past where i've thought nobody will find any value in reblogging this, People Have Reblogged It. like yeah it's on me for using my public online blog as a diary sometimes but now i can turn reblogs off so i will!!

the second reason is that it's impossible to predict which of my posts will break containment and even impossibler to predict what posts people will be annoying in the notes of when that happens - so i usually just do an assessment of "on a scale of 1 to 10 how annoyed would i be to get comments by randos on this post". like, for example, two months ago i was annoying all of my loyal followers with many posts about the prague astronomical clock while i was researching it for a school assignment. and for some unpredictable reason, the post that's just me getting emotional about how amazing it is that it survived for this long at all is getting hundreds of notes. which is fine, except so many tags are just "ALSO IT'S BEAUTIFUL!!!" and "BTW DID YOU KNOW HOW MANY FUNCTIONS IT HAS" and it's like. YES I KNOW. I HAVE BEEN POSTING ABOUT THIS CLOCK EXTENSIVELY. I CAN TELL YOU ABOUT ITS FUNCTIONS IN DETAIL. I KNOW YOU DON'T KNOW THIS BUT I KNOW THIS AND I AM SO SMART ABOUT THIS CLOCK !!!!!!!!!

anyway my annoyance threshold is just really low sometimes. the internet is noisy

tumblr said draw something bad so I did but I'm mad I still didn't feel anything

[zeravmeta]

seeing a bunch of yugitubers finally white knuckling teeth clenching admitting that links were actively detrimental for the game and that pendulums were not the core issue is so satisfying, actually

Endlessly annoyed at people who imply I'm (or others) are fishing for sympathy when we're just talking about being disabled and the reality that comes with it. A thing that happens to me regularly, every day even. Why do you associate being disabled with begging for sympathy? Answer quickly 🎤

[cultofthepigeon]

im still trying to beat dd1 even though i spoiled the ending for myself cause im bad at it/wont get the same excitement and sense of joy from the ending like everyone else/watched multiple people start the game after me and finish it before me

but anyways if someone catches the crimson curse under level 5 and unles i desperately need them for the dungeon, i just toss em. single handedly just infesting the outside world with bug vampires. youre welcome everybody 👋

I've watched the reintegration scene SEVEN TIMES now and I still get full body chills from it..

The slight change in his voice when he says "you mean what quarter?" is INSANE!!! Ever so slightly more child-like and higher in pitch than all his previous answers ... Fucking 😭 And then the editing.. how was his posing so precise despite the costume changes ?? The precision angles and exact same expressions. The scene and episode ending with the phrase "who are you?" The same phrase that starts the show?? (And again when Mark first meets Reghabi)

SHOCK. AWE. WONDER.

‘link click female characters are always getting assaulted or abused this is so problematic—’ mfker cheng xiaoshi’s corpse is shown like every other episode and shiguang keep getting shot. i don’t think it’s a female characters thing it’s just a link click thing
