Writers!

Was thinking about this because if I'm drawing I can listen to any kind of music, but if I'm writing it needs to either be just instrumentals, or lyrics that aren't in English, otherwise I'm too focused on the words of the song and not the words I'm trying to write :')

So lemme know how it is for you!

I know that realistically you can only fit so many movies into a list of approximately 100, but I cannot take that "How many of tumblr's favorite movies have you seen?" list that's been going around seriously because there are some truly egregious omissions.

Some of it is very clearly recency bias, which makes me wonder if the op truly wasn't on here in 2013 or so, but you're telling me you made a list of "tumblr's favorite movies" that doesn't include Pacific Rim or Mad Max: Fury Road? Because, like, I was there, Gandalf.

I'm a ridiculous human and genuinely couldn't sleep until I tried my hand at a better, more balanced list -- though of course, I have my own biases when it comes to what corners of this website I've lurked in over the years. For what it's worth, I did consult the last several Years In Review, while also drawing on the fact that I've been here for over a decade. But if there's anything that truly doesn't feel like it should have made the cut, blame my mutuals for putting it on my dash all the time.

(And apologies, but I couldn't seem to find Goncharov among the website's listings)

Whenever I remember that Tango's streams start at 21 they start at 20 instead and when I remember that they start somewhere between 20 and 21 they start at 22 and this is an issue

I watch a few other streamers without set schedule and for most I don't mind but I think with Tango it's annoying because one of his mods once said that Tango always streams at the exact same time which I instantly knew was a lie because when I started watching Tango his stream time was at 3 or 4 (Plate Up (yes Tango's Plate Up-streams is why I started watching him on Twitch))

This is NOT a question of daylight saving because those hasn't happened yet and those makes it even more annoying because suddenly he streams at 19 or 23 I can't remember which one it was xD

The hermits keep talking about how much better they've gotten as builders so something I'd love to see is them booting up a world with the same version as say Hermitcraft season 1 and build something. Because yeah I agree they keep getting better, but I want to see how much of that better is also because of the constant addition of the new blocks!

“And this is a punishment,” Xisuma clarifies, after the shadowy figure from beyond brings it to his attention, less because Xisuma’s in charge and more because only he and Hypno still remembered the admin password, and the shadowy figure’s power requires it.

(Hypno had laughed them out of the room. Xisuma’s not sure if he ought to be offended they went to Hypno first.)

He listens closely as the shadowy figure explains again. “Oh, I mean, er, I don’t really see the problem with permit-based punishment, I guess? I’m pretty sure not doing what the government says gets you punished, and between the DMV and the courthouse, gosh, we may as well go all the way with the roleplay! I think exile seems a bit medieval, but—”

The shadowy figure makes a frustrated sound.

“Sorry, sorry, I forgot. It’s not make-believe, you’re a very real dangerous set of higher-ups from beyond. Oh, this is so fun!”

The shadows grow more frustrated. They curl around Xisuma, squeezing and tearing. They aren’t doing anything else, though, because they didn’t get the admin password from Hypno. Gosh, Xisuma now wonders if they tried anyone else. Joe has it, but he’s probably forgotten it. Doc has it, except Xisuma purposefully rotates it so actually Doc doesn’t have it right now and will have to ask again before doing something particularly server-breaking. Grian has it, but he likes to pretend he doesn’t—oh, he will laugh if they didn’t check Grian. Aren’t these fellows Grian’s?

Right. Erm. Anyway. He pats the shadowy vengeance of a god of terrible, unknowable Order on the orderly shadow squeezing him. “Sorry, I just want to make sure—so, er, you’re sending people millions of blocks out to uncharted, untouched land, at a point in the season when many people are losing steam on their current projects and starting to look for a fresh start, if not quite ready to give up on things like the TCG or minigames just yet. As a punishment?”

A long silence. A reply.

“Okay, I mean, if you’re sure, here’s the password. Don’t go losing it on me! Oh, that sounds so much fun, really. I mean, ah, terrible! It sounds very terrible. What a truly awful punishment! Gosh.”

The god of order vanishes. Xisuma looks at his hands.

“Well, I did warn them,” Xisuma says, abdicating himself of the whole problem, before he wanders off to stick some diamonds in his ender chest and find a nice cliff for some prankster-minded spirit to push him off of. Just in case they’re feeling like it. For no reason in particular.

It’s a very reasonable punishment, after all.

Vilken Bamse berättelse eller grej formade dig som barn?

Inte särskilt djupt men Farmors monolog ”Jag städar en gång om året - antingen det behövs eller inte. Förra året tyckte jag ändå inte att det behövdes så då hoppade jag över det. Därför ryker det kanske lite extra, men det ska det göra för det är inte kul att städa om det inte märks att man gör det.” förändrade min hjärnkemi. Jag citerar den rätt ofta faktiskt.

Skalman sa i en serie att "Skynda långsamt är lagom och bra" (när han inte sa att skynda var ett fult ord) och det är något jag har tagit med mig :3

USA people! Buy NOTHING Feb 28 2025. Not anything. 24 hours. No spending. Buy the day before or after but nothing. NOTHING. February 28 2025. Not gas. Not milk. Not something on a gaming app. Not a penny spent. (Only option in a crisis is local small mom and pop. Nothing. Else.) Promise me. Commit. 1 day. 1 day to scare the shit out of them that they don't get to follow the bullshit executive orders. They don't get to be cowards. If they do, it costs. It costs.

Then, if you can join me for Phase 2. March 7 2025 thtough March 14 2025? No Amazon. None. 1 week. No orders. Not a single item. Not one ebook. Nothing. 1 week. Just 1.

If you live outside the USA boycott US products on February 28 2025 and stand in solidarity with us and also join us for the week of no Amazon.

Are you with me?

Spread the word.

If some of you actually read the articles on this, yes, a single day won't make a world of change, and they are very clear about that. It's not about a single day, it's about the first day.

Quote, "This blackout is a wake up call, a first step in proving that we have the power to disrupt the system."

"This protest's real power lies in its potential for escalation. If the People's Union follows through with planned longer-term boycotts, we could see significant shifts in how corporations balance profit margins against social responsibility."

"The People's Union USA is not just about one day, it's about creating a long term strategic action. February 28th is the start, but we are building a sustained movement that continues to grow with each video posted." "This isn't a one time protest, it really is the beginning of a shift in how the people can demonstrate their power intelligently to the corporations and government."

"[It'll] likely have a minimal direct impact. But what many overlook is the power of the idea. The playbook for this already exists—Montgomery, 1955, the Bus Boycott. If this gains traction, it could turn into something much bigger, especially if people extend it beyond just one day."

If you're US-based, please join me on the 28th to take part in this.
