I am someone who likes immersion in my minecraft (i.e. playing pretend with my blocks) and as such I've been going for a more realistic farm design than how a lot of people will just aim for maximum efficiency in Obtaining Items. And it looks better visually. My playstyle is very Building Oriented. Anyway I keep changing my mind about if I want to make a minecraft slaughterhouse to kill my cows in. Because that feels kinda weird, right. But so does killing cows in front of the rest of them, because I know too much about animal slaughter

Just got into the dumbest Minecraft argument about the new “useless” materials that I was somehow framed as the villain in so I’m bitching here

Like. I’m not saying it wouldn’t be cool if copper or resin or whatever got some more crafting recipes in the future But to be shown dozens of items and blocks that these things are used for and just dismissing it as “that doesn’t count because it’s decorative and cosmetic which aren’t real uses in the sandbox building game” It’s just missing the point of the argument.

Resin has a use. A great orange armor trim and brick set I used for my bank’s roof in my main world. Also I can plaster golden flecks on any texture I want for ultimate detailing.

Amethyst has a use. Purple crystals that play singsongy tunes on contact. Magical crystal deco.

Copper has the MOTHERLOAD of all uses. Great metallic building blocks at a price less prohibitively expensive as iron blocks, in four different color schemes?? With stairs, slabs, doors, trapdoors, grates and more??? I can’t even fit every block made with copper in a single chest.

Like. What world are you living in where the building features in this Building Game are inherently worthless compared to fucking. Redstone Component of the week for the farm you’ll never make. I know not everyone plays this game as I do but these ppl don’t seem to get the world doesn’t revolve around them.

the minecraft cows getting a tiny snout is so funny to me because the old mobs are ugly in comparison to all the new mobs but the devs know that if they change classic mobs people will firebomb their houses so theyre testing out little differences to try and improve it without attracting the anger of thousands of internet users

Just beat the Ender Dragon on Bedrock Edition (for the achievement, I normally play Java), and now my overworld's skybox is utterly cursed.

Legitimately a cool glitch. I kinda wish it was a feature.

You have killed the most powerful naturally occuring entity in this universe. The sky is perpetually darkened.

Something is terribly wrong.

A minecraft build I did a while ago, a Lonely House. Based on an illustration by FrancisCo.

This uses some perspective tricks that started to be used more at the time:

Built in an older version, I made use of a glitch with shulker shadows to help darken some areas. In 1.16, when you place shulker boxes and move away, the boxes disappear as they are entities, but the shadows remain. That’s why there are so many pink blocks all over :) I got this idea from a build by Mine674, who made a huge, detailed build with customized shadows all over. You can find it here.

It was pretty fun coloring the clouds and mixing a lot of different blocks to achieve the colors and transitions that match the original image as close as possible.

In the end I was happy with the build as it was my first organic, though some coloring and shaping can definitely be smoother.

If I had to re-do it, I’d also make it more 3D and lean in on using the shadows between the clouds that the sun casts for a better sense of “3D-idness” and a more cartoony, hand drawn look, where the shadows would make for ink or pencil like outlines and accents.

neovenator, my most fleshed out figura avatar yet, with 60+ animations for just about every state a player can be in. 6 action wheel animations as well, not shown in the video, three of which play randomly while idle. though its supposed to be a neovenator it can most certainly be retextured and modeled to fit any medium-sized theropod :)

utilizes gsanimblend, jimmyanims, squishyapi, runlater, and soggyscript

download coming after some polishing!

INCREDIBLY funny how the only person I’ve seen so far with a positive reaction to the Minecraft movie trailer is Notch

the scam allegations and the relentless dogpiling of Palestinian bloggers really gave the people who just needed an excuse to stop caring what they wanted. and for the blogs who aren't "racist per se" but also stopped caring about gofundme campaigns after Palestinian bloggers came out to the forefront to defend Shahed and Shaima's respective fundraisers. this website got the supposed "ending" to this "drama story of the week". and promptly moved on.

I need you all to understand these are real people. real families' lives at stake that you are hurting with your apathy with regards to donating. sometimes there would be 100 reblogs in an hour and there would only be a single €5 donation for Hazem.

the minute taglists aren't being attached to every single update post about the campaign, the gfm stagnates unbelievably—for hours.

there has only be 6 donations in the past 6 hours. the most recent donation was 3 hours ago.

Hazem has 5 siblings that he needs to evacuate, along with their parents. ive seen zionists dogpiling Hazem already, trying to discredit him despite him being a verified campaign.

We desperately need funds so Hazem could register his family for evacuation, please help him raise the remaining funds so the family is not separated. We simply cannot let this family trapped in north Gaza down. They have been displaced multiple times and have been suffering from food scarcity for 11 months now.

The best time to donate was yesterday, the next best time is now.
