You! Do you want more minecraft shows? Do you like watching beautiful, intriguing murder mysteries for free on youtube? Do you know about Whitepine?

i rewatched all 3 episodes of whitepine, and i wanted to write a somewhat-cohesive opinion on it, because clearly not enough people are talking about it. i mean, episode 3 has been out for 4 days, and it still only has 123k views. which is an atrociously small number for a show this good.

so, whitepine is a kind of series that you will watch without your phone. the visuals are both captivatingly beautiful and important to the narrative. the pacing is unhurried and calm, letting you savor every shot. however, i wouldn't call it slow or boring. i was afraid that it would be too serious or melancholic for me, or that it is a horror story, but that wasn't the case at all. it's a murder mystery set in the early XX century. the story is centered around a household of the wealthy Hemlocke family, where the main character, Ivory, is a newly-hired maid. Ivory is quiet, shy and agreeable - not exactly a typical main character for a minecraft production. Ivory's progression through the story is genuinely interesting to watch, and i find her actions and words very realistic. actually, all dialogue sounds natural, which is.. pretty hard to achieve.

voice acting is surprisingly good. don't get me wrong, i love minecraft roleplay with its amature acting, but it doesn't mean that i don't notice the flaws. whitepine, however, sounds almost professional, which is a result of actors' amazing work and Ivorycello masterfully matching the actors to the roles. speaking of sounds, whitepine has incredible sound design! not only is there music that Ivorycello composed (and played, i think) herself, there are also actual sound effects - rustling of bedsheets, bird songs, clatter of plates - everything! - that help to interpret actions and scenes that are hard to show within minecraft.

speaking of minecraft - this show is not minecrafty at all. game mechanics have no bearings on the story and are not referenced at all. this is neither a praise nor critique from me, just a fact about the show.

i highly recommend turning subtitles on, at least for the scenes with muffled speech or a lot of characters talking. ah, yes, whitepine has great, human made subtitles in english and... wait.. how many languages?

the only con to watching whitepine is that you will want to watch more whitepine, and it is an on-going show. but it is so worth the wait, i promise you.

okay, last part of the post. whitepine = good. whitepine = intriguing. whitepine = beautiful. i love whitepine. you will likely love whitepine too. and i won't even tell you to go search for it, i'll just give you the link right here. here, take it. click that link. ep1 is 30 minutes long. and if you like the piano soundtrack, here it is. you don't even have to look it up.

Hi everyone i nearly wrote "bdsmp" instead of "bdsm" because my brain has typing "dsmp" hard wired into it

desperately need people to realise tommy wrote exile arc before they start mass speculating over a fictional story. like this has even less importance than questionable but non abusive actions (like dream making weird ass sexual jokes about minors as young as thirteen- stuff you Should Not Do but don’t necessarily mean any abuse like I’m all about “fucking fix the cc space Jesus Christ treating minors in weird ways is so common” but that does Not mean abuse it’s a harmful culture that everyone participates in to some degree) this was a staged storyline that was in part Written By The Teenager. stop trying to analyse art to mean you should have known like c’mon dude stop writing fanfic about a real kid being hurt bc he wrote an angsty minecraft story.

Have y’all considered that Shelby didn’t want to name their abuser because y’all would react like fucking this, try to drop him immediately when you have No Idea about the situation behind the scenes?

She wanted to raise awareness of what abuse could look like. They’re an adult. Why would you force her to name someone. Y’all were not in danger and she was handling it. The fuck is wrong with y’all.

Something so poetic about cwilbur surviving the story. Being the only one to escape the narrative before it implodes on itself. The story had a bad ending because no one else could escape being doomed like he did. Doomed by not the narrarive but the rapidly declining quality of the work. Doomed by breakdown in communication by the creators. He's poetry btw

finally, the deities are finished

what exactly was it dream did to the server?

Towards the end people started noticing he only did lore when there were problems surrounding image, otherwise you had others complain that they're being ignored in dms/discord when asking to do lore. Accused of something? Better do DreamXD/george lore. Being cancelled on twitter? Lore is coming. Angsty Lore is always coming. Big things are coming on the DreamSMP. Being accused of grooming a 17 years old? Let's get the finale out as soon as possible. Let's nuke the server without asking anyone else or letting them finish their stories. S2 is coming. S2 is coming. S2 will never come.

This is based off my AU ending for dsmp. A couple years after the server ends, the Clingys set off to find and reconnect with Wilbur!
