also one thing that makes me a bit upset is the fact that in about 3-5 years, the next gen of minecraft players will be asking us why we dye our beds red, why we tame ocelots and go for the Jelly cat. They're gonna question why we talk about roses, and why we go for the light grey wolves. They're gonna question why we do redstone the way we always do, and ask who the Hermitcraft/Empires/Life smp members are. All They're gonna know is the dsmp and qsmp, and there's nothing wrong with that. They're going to ask why we have every recipe memorised, and in a few more years than that They're gonna ask who Technoblade is. When we make an Aha joke, say Snappers or mention DesertDuo, FlowerHusbands, NatureWives, and other ships, They're gonna tilt their heads and look confused. This won't be their faults, but it still will make me upset.
Oh wow that is gonna be fascinating and bittersweet to watch... I hadn't even considered/realized half of these yet, like the wolves and the various ships and CC mannerisms/bits
I think it's gonna be neat getting to introduce people to them for the first time, and teach about them to the next generation of mcyt/Minecraft fans tho. Like I didn't know about the roses until I watched Joel and Lizzie play early versions of the game, or how I discovered Hermitcraft late s9 and never knew TFC, but then I've learned about those things from the community and creators
It's definitely gonna be odd and a bit sad tho, especially as the transition starts and the first few times each thing is missed or forgotten
It'll be strange seeing newer fans just as unknowledgeable on my faves as I am on the previous generation of mcyts (the ones so many of my peers watched when they were kids, who's names I barely know, but who seem to have been very dear to a lot of people)

while i get where this comes from and it’s true to an extent, i reeeaaaally don’t like how people try to explain “trans men don’t [necessarily] have male privilege” with things like “some trans men don’t pass”.
like sure that’s the most obvious example (someone who is seen as a woman won’t have the privilege that comes with being seen a man) but you’re still acting like being a passing trans man is just a free opt-in to male privilege which is………kinda the issue.

theres smth so romantic about the lackey. let me wait on you hand and foot because i want to see you succeed, because i believe in your cause and your ability to reach your goals, even if we fail every single time. you dont have to give me anything, being around you is reward enough. it doesnt matter if youre a good person or if you have good intentions, in my eyes youre everything the world needs. let me beat that guy up for you sir
