#theres one very specific server i remember

[foxy-lisard]

Anyone got any fun Minecraft servers to recommend? I lost all the ones I had saved and it's a bit hard trying to find them.

[emotsper]

SO after my szai explanation ask went absolutely insane and two people added their own stuff to it, I am not obsessed with szai thank you very much

anyways, point is that i watch a lot of music videos in my freetime, and while watching watashi wa, watashhitachi wa here are some szai moments that may be overinterpreted but!!!! who cares we're all insane anyways

so first of all the fact that airi got this line.......

second, these two lines

AND LAST THE FACT THAT AIRI WAS THE FIRST ONE TO LIGHT UP IN "there are many things I want to protect"

stupid fruits i love them

oh god dont make me started on song lyrics bc they absolutely devastate me ok . this time thankfully i remember to put the read more but anyways. click only if u gaf enough ab szai bc i do. (also i am not converting u its ok im just crazy enough to remember specific parts of the covers bc they make me insane)

ik the "covers aren't exactly canon" is pretty much accepted on a good chunk by the franchise but it doesn't mean it cant make u crazy.... here are a few cases of crazy ass lines i can think of with a more recent one. starting off with haruai's superhero.

1. HRAI SUPERHERO

this one makes me go insane bc as pris pointed out in the server we're in before, airi sometimes in a sense compare shizuku to a goddess with how pretty and gracious she is and while it can be seen as exaggerated, we can kind of see that she also meant it even in a way that shes not aware of. and shizuku is there to remind her that she's not a god and neither is airi, the one she wants to love 🥲

2. MMJ DEEPSEA GIRL

this one is a bit more straightforward, except now the szai and mnhr parallel(?) is also included. but we'll talk ab szais part only ofc.

(first chorus) airi shutting herself in the shadowy beyond just like her act of moving away from the idol stuff due to her being marketed less of an idol and she disliked it despite her fame rising up, and shizuku who. do i even have to say it. fell in love first.

(second chorus) shizuku had a line before this that reads as "deep sea girl, purposefully falling down" where she starts to doubt herself as an idol when airi lashed out on her back in mainstory, and airi who still haven't moved on her hope of her being a real idol ever since she left her old group up to the point of the confrontation with shizuku 🥲

3. Flos

GIRLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL theyre both clearly feeling guilty over dropping off their past idol work especially after airis proclamation of them being rivals when they debuted 😭 im so.

4. I'm a loser!

🥲🥲🥲🥲 airi being the first one who acknowledged shizuku as a real idol, and so is shizuku who acknowledged airi as a real idol, and it got better with them acknowledging each other as their ideal idol.... coughs coughs coughs co

5. Ice drop

🥲 again i dont have to explain this one. the . ough

okay im not gonna do every single comms im just doing the ones i remember from the top of my head 😭 but theres definitely way more crazy ass lines from their songs and yeah. that i am we are line points back to the event where shizuku was worried with her self image after airi lashed out on her and it lasted long enough until the color of myself event where she starts to show more of her true self, not the perfect elegant idol shizuku but the more clumsy and imperfect shizuku :") i love them your honor

hi pix i know nothing about qsmp or purgatory but my streamers are in it now so please could you give me a quick summary of lore and stuff i need to know? :3

okay so this is a purgatory event so you really dont need to know any lore as i dont think it will affect any of the competitors at all or at least very little of them.

purgatory is a competitive event. its focused on winning. whether this be by strategy or pure luck. its truly anyones game even if you arent the most skilled player.

last time there were three teams and a lot at stake. which were the eggs lives. only one team could win.

this time the video stated ONLY ONE PERSON COULD WIN the “grand prize” so. like you. the audience nor the participants know anything about purgatory two besides that. and it seems to have a radioactive theme surrounding the event which may be linked to the fact the previous purgatory island where the first event took place got “blown up” by an atomic bomb. so theres that.

last purgatory there was i think three events if im not wrong i could be. all very strategy and pvp type of events. events inspired by capture the flag, bed wars, and such.

every day teams would compete and a single team had the chance of winning daily. by the end whoever had the most wins won the entire event overall. to win you had to gain points. percentages for points were different every day. so the twitter account would tweet something like “Kills 20% Contracts 50% Tasks 30%” which gave the players an idea of what they had to prioritize to win that day. some days were more kill focused and others more tasks and contracts focused.

tasks are your personal missions for the day. things like collecting a certain amount of blocks and killing a number of mobs. these were relatively easy to get done and an easy way to gain points for the day.

contracts were more complicated versions of tasks. whichever team completed and claimed the contract by the end of the day would gain the most points from it. so you’d have instances where One Contract was regarding collecting sand. if green team collected 30k sand and claimed that contract there would be a cooldown until someone else could add a higher number like 31k sand and claim that contract back for their team. taking all the points that the previous team had gained from that contract. this is where we’d get a lot of. interesting moments. overall contracts matter depending on the percentage they get you that day.

I don’t quite recall the schedule but the purgatory server would open at a specific time and close at a specific time. i remember watching by like 1pm est and it closing near like 10pm/12am est. each player had a play time limit so you had to be smart and manage and coordinate your time well with your team. YOU DID NOT WANT TO RUN OUT OF TIME BEFORE THE SERVER CLOSED. YOU ALWAYS WANTED AT LEAST SOMEONE IN YOUR TEAM WITH PLAY TIME LEFT BEFORE THE SERVER CLOSED. arguably the most important times were right as the server opens and right as it closes. the last minutes before the server closes will be the most stressful part of your day by far. anything can change. anyone can win even if its just a minute on the clock.

general game stuff. you lose hunger quicker and food rots so you need to be careful of that. you have hydration so you need to drink water or something like tea to make sure you dont die of dehydration. all the mobs are buffed like insanely buffed. you can have prot 4 diamond armor and still get your ass whooped by an enderman. it is difficult.

NOW. there were also disaster events. like toxic fog, blizzards, meteors, increased hunger (passive mobs also attack you), quicksand (you sink into the floor if you stop moving), earthquakes (if you are in a cave RUN AND GET OUT. THE ROOF WILL CRUSH YOU also nausea effect), mini you (you shrink into a like one block height and are slow), reversed controls, acid rain, radiation (if you have radiation and are nearby crops, animals, or players they will begin to take damage), etc. these would happen in random intervals and you NEED to be prepared for them because if you arent. you will die. and dying lowers your percentage. hence negativity impacting your chances of a win that day. you prepare for these disasters by having certain items for instance the toxic fog has the gas mask counter. all events have a counter. you just have to be fast.

heres the thing though. that was purgatory one. i am 100% sure this time will be different so everything i am telling you could be completely changed and adapted after all the feedback from purgatory one. i dont know if the point system will work the same, i dont know if the disasters will be the same, i dont know if there will be pre determined teams or if it’s purely you make your own alliances, i dont know if the schedule for the server or play time will be different, i dont know WHAT THE STAKES ARE, i dont know. anything could change. but what probably wont change is the anguish of purgatory. because the entire point is to make it feel torturous and draining and hardcore enough to condemn the “sinners”. that is what The Watcher calls the players. The Watcher is the entity that runs the Purgatory event.

it is meant to be a free for all. it is meant to be raw and merciless. so heads up. its okay if you get frustrated. it happens to all of us. now this isn’t specifically at you but to the community overall never never never release your frustrations OVER A MINECRAFT EVENT on the streamers. purgatory caused a lot of discourse and stress for the streamers because the community, specifically on twitter, got toxic. but also as a qsmp blogger tumblr was also not flawless. so again if another player kills your favorite streamer or the team youre supporting is not doing well and getting targeted… it is not the end of the world. the whole point is to be aggressive and WIN by any means. if someone wants to kill someone in game without a second of thought and not allow them to even beg.. so be it. if someone wants to raid someones base and burn all the shit they worked hours for.. so be it. if someone gets into an unfair unbalanced pvp fight and they lose everything.. so be it. it is purgatory. my advice to FULLY ENJOY IT is don’t take it too seriously and filter any neg or discourse tags lol.

heres the thing. purgatory one had certain rules established after a few days and after feedback. when it initially started spawn killing was allowed and as you can imagine after a few days a rule was set to no longer allow spawn killing. im assuming for purgatory two certain rules will be set before the event and creators will be informed of them. i imagine purgatory two will be a more polished version of the original purgatory though im sure it too will have some flaws and criticisms to be had.

besides that purgatory is a very fun event with a lot of funny moments and cool interactions between streamers and i think purgatory two will be 10x better than the first. any new viewers have a lot of awesome stuff to look forward to. you guys are going to love the admins and i just know a lot of cool things are planned and prepared as they always are for qsmp events.

ALSO IF YOU SEE ELQ (ElQuackity) JUST KNOW THAT SEXY BASTARD IS A BITCH ASS MOTHERFUCKER. anyways hope you enjoy it

[enlighten3d]

i know i said id write this post four hours ago but i had to do the merge dragons event. anyway.

WINGS ! how the fuck would they be treated on smps where theres pvp? (this is an au where Everyone has wings. and talons but well get into that Later. this is about the wings sdhkjgl)

(context post btw: here)

they are very much a weak point in combat, id saying. if you fuck someones wings up, they are done for. cant fly away, permanent damage. and theres not many ways to defend them (beyond putting armour on the flesh and bone part of the wing - which would do a lot more than it sounds like!). so i do think that it would be social taboo to go for someones wings in battle.

but even if it is social taboo.. accidents happen, and it works differently on different servers, right? and thats what this post is about ! focusing on smps where theres actual Combat (sorry hermitcrafters and kww collab fans)

first off, my beloved.. the dream smp. honestly! i think people would NOT go for the wings. there may be wars and actually genuinely fucked up stuff, but going for the wings in a fight is taking it too far. accidents have DEFINITELY happened tho, what with the sheer amount of withers and explosions. like phils wings being fucked up! yes i know thats a canon thing but im using it to prove my point here. the EXCEPTION to this 'people not intentionally going for the wings' thing is, well. c!dream. the fucker would INSTANTLY go for the wings whenever he has an opportunity. its a weak point, of course he'd abuse the fuck out of it, like. its impossible to expect anything otherwise.

lifesteal!! this ones fun to me because i think theyd have Concrete Rules on this. like they already do! from off the top of my head, i remember that netherite armour is banned, for example. i think going for the wings would just be... another thing thats banned. and no matter how deep into the Lore that people get, those rules are GEEENERALLYYYYY followed. the wings one for sure is. it may be the dEaDlIeSt SeRvEr, but theyre all there willingly. getting their wings fucked up is not something ANYONE wants. i dont know enough about lifesteal to pinpoint specific times that Accidents wouldve happened but! whatever. this is one rule that they always follow i think. (please dont kill me for this one if you disagree, i havent watched enough lifesteal)

now the life series... naturally, going for the wings is banned. ..but only nominally, really. all bets are off when youre on red, right? i really dont think there could be anything to stop people on red from going for peoples wings in fights. i mean, depending on your interpretation of the life series (as in, does being on red actually make someone Bloodthirsty like most common fanon, or is it just a Thing that lets someone attack others?), this can change, but i like the first one, so with that in mind... yeah nothing would stop people on red from going for the wings. this only gets MORE INTERESTING if you believe life series and hermitcraft to be connected in some way... with the inevitable wing injuries that would come from the life series, if they just... go back to hermitcraft and other servers afrterwards... if those injuries are permanent (which i do believe they are), then... oh that would be Something hehe. keeping this in my back pocket a fic idea, yall are free to yoink it.

and last but not least, bcs i dont actually watch that many smps (esp not with fighting) or whatever... unstable universe. pretty much what i said for lifesteal! like! i dont see any reason why itd be any different. yes unstableverse doesnt have Rules like lifesteal, but... theyre mostly the same people. if they can follow that Rule in lifesteal, combined with the social taboo thing, i think that they wouldnt really go for the wings. thats just a line you dont cross. (..also wemmbu did canonically yoink Most of the elytras on the whole server at one point, and in this context i think it would be funny if he just somehow managed to disable flight for a while, but thats a whole other thing unrelated to wings in combat lmao)

ANYWAY YEAH THATS THAT. I HAVE SOOOO MANY THOUGHTS ABOUT HOW WINGS IN COMBAT WOULD ACTUALLY WORK. might write a post about that.

this is all headcanons !! im making shit up, as always !! o7

[anxiouslyextroverted]

hey i love your lore posts but with your point about c!dream using the revival book pre- prison as in what he did to lazar and vik that had happened after he escaped prison. Not before

Also when you say cdream wanted ctommy for his goal what do you mean by that can you elaborate? What would he need him for😭

oh man long ass reply im so sorry. :(

I have no idea when it took place (but since it showed in the dreamxd vid, a scene of c!Ranboo with tnt around him then maybe it really did happen after the prison arc) but regardless of if Lazar and Viks suffering happened after c!Dream escaped prison or not. He still did experiment with the revive book prior to c!Tommy being trapped with him,it was henry he used it on. Unless I'm just mis-remembering. As for the other thing, I think there are many interpretations to why c!Dream needed c!Tommy for his goals and what he needed him for.

remembering c!Dreams apparent goal is to fix the server, make it simple again by breaking people, killing them and reviving them. Kinda like cleansing the server? Whilst he remains in control. Keep in mind that its been said by Dream that c!Dream did find hurting c!Tommy fun, but he did say it wasn't c!Dreams only goal or for 'no reason'

Some I've considered: (these are not nesscarally separate)

c!dream runs on emotions and is conflicted (can apply to anything below)

He sees c!Tommy as weak and just wanted to get revenge on him cuz c!Tommy was one of the only few to defy him so he wanted to break that. There is less amusement, only craving of revenge. Things like him wanting to teach revival book to c!Tommy was specifically to make c!Tommy stressed and too scared to battle c!Dream.

He wanted c!Tommy to hate him as a way to get his goal. (I still dont know why one of my irl friends thinks this was the case but alrighty then)

He sees c!Tommy as a huge threat so he wanted to break him down wanting him on his side so he has a clearer way of reaching his goal -yk with c!Tommy out of the way. This is less of revenge or amusement, and just a shove him off to the side when done with him. (which i think is the least likely of all of these interpretations)

He wants to hurt c!Tommy specifically out of fun and amusement. Could explain why despite c!Tommy obeying him in exile, he still was very cruel to him.

He only saw c!Tommy as strong physically not socially and wanted to reign that side of c!Tommy in or vise versa.

He saw c!Tommy as strong overally/and or saw his potential for this, wanting to use his spark and anger from c!Tommy to help his goals. Since someone that is that chaotic can be useful, as if c!Dre was unleashing a personification of a canon or fire ball onto his enemies. In exile, he does prefer when c!Tommy is quiet at times but he still doesn't mind c!Tommy talking energetically and being chaotic WHEN its being aligned with c!Dream. Another point to add to this is that in the pet war, c!primeboys destroyed a building together. These moments of him siding with c!tommy during c!tommys chaos allow a better bond, but it also causes others to turn against c!tommy which again is something c!dream wanted- cuz it causes c!tommy to depend on him.

I think its closest to the last point, theres just so many examples of c!Dream not giving a shit and even encouraging c!Tommys chaotic nature. As long as said chaotic nature is not against him. c!Dream enjoys c!Tommys spark and fire and finds it fun that it never burns out, but he absolutely hates it when he loses his own control (his already lost his stability of his server at this point). Its kinda like c!Tommy fuels his adrenaline and love of challenges and he chases this and goes all delulu, obsessed with control over the one guy that seems impossible to reign in. I'd add in that point, that other thing about c!Dream being irrational, and emotional and not having his actual plan figured out even though he thinks he does. and ofc add in the wanting revenge ig. He chooses c!Tommy for those reasons. And c!Tommy he has seen as loyal, selfless, confident, fierce and brash. c!Dream had he gotten his way would of broken down that to an extent, gotten him fully dependent on him, and then rebuilt c!Tommy up to be loyal to cdre, confident ect but this time on c!Dreams side, against c!Dreams enemies. Socially powerful, Physically powerful, entertaining, satisfcation for his revenge, easily can be broken and rebuilt over and over, and gives c!dream a feeling of consistent control. c!Dream loves it.

so what about cdre saying "why do you have to ruin things all the time." It doesn't contradict the last point. I believe he was talking about the early days when c!Dre actually did seem annoyed with c!Tommys antics. (it wasnt about stuff like c!prime destroying shit) also cdre naturally has irrational opinions about c!tommy based on his own trauma. That line was also c!dream deflecting from the sht he did, and blaming c!tommy. my irl pointed out that it could be him talking about himself yet all blame in cdre eyes must go on someone else.

[tangledbea]

I remember I saw a post somewhere say tts is set in the 1780s I think. Do you know if this is canon and if not what time period do you set it in? Or since theres magic and it's fantasy you don't really have one?

That is a misconception based on and idea of when they wanted to set it. But the fact of the matter is, they set it in a kind of vague "ye olden tymes" setting that has elements from multiple centuries-worth of stuff.

Here, I'll copy/paste a post I made years ago:

There was a time when it had a specific time period, but that was movie production from a long time ago, well before it became the movie we know and love now. The city of Corona looks like a Renaissance Pleasure Faire (where guests are dressed from hundreds of years’ span of time periods).

The phonograph (visible in the background when Eugene is confronting Cassandra in Tangled Before Ever After) was invented in 1877.

Petunia, the woman Daylight Thief, had a very Gibson Girl look, which was popular during a twenty-year span, from the late 1800s to the early 1900s.

Hot air balloons (Under Raps) were invented in 1783.

Mozart (mentioned in I’ve Got a Dream) reached the height of his living popularity in the 1780′s.

Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9 (Eugene is whistling it in Tangled Before Ever After) was first performed in 1824.

The Tudor fashion of clothes, which is what Arianna and Frederic’s outfits are based on, was popular in the 1500′s.

Powdered wigs and coiffure, such as Lady Caine wore when she was masquerading as the Duchess of Quintonia, and later, Rapunzel wore to hide her hair, were popular in the 1700′s.

Wooden hoops, such as the one Rapunzel wore under her coronation dress, were popular in the 1800′s.

Eugene’s coronation suit has 1800′s flare, while Cassandra’s handmaiden outfit recalls the same Tudor fashion mentioned above.

So, as you can see, the time periods are all over the place, stretching from the 1500′s all the way up to the early 1900′s. (And that’s not even taking into account Gothel’s Medieval fashion sense, which made her already appear out of time with the rest of the cast, a deliberate design during movie production.)

(Added as a reply to the post above): Chris Sonnenburg is on the Tangled discord server, and he pops in every so often to hang out answer questions, and the time era question came up. Chris says that Tangled was based on a wide range of eras, mostly between 1450s and late 1600s, I believe.

[shoezuki]

I don't know like anything the discord server situation so take this with a grain of salt, but. In a server that large you can't expect every single trigger to be catered to. Let's take me as an example. An uncommon trigger? Eggs out of their shells. Imagine if I strolled into every sever and every person's blog being like 'ayo can you trigger tag this' and then multiply it by a very large number. Everything is a trigger for someone. In severs that large you just can't cater. In dms or mutuals or very tiny servers where you know people probably, but not something that big. Idk, this probably makes no sense and I know next to nothing on the situation, but yeah.

- Slur Anon

YES EXACTLY. i fuckin feel u like.

Okay i have VERY few triggers but theres One r fucking big one that like. Is more complex. But. Christmas is a trigger to me. It goes more into specifics with certain decorations, christmas music, movies, etc. But it causes me to dissociate REALLY badly. Like i can go entire days not remembering anything. Some shit causes me to burst into tears. Its a horrible time of the year for me

But people LOVE christmas. And its everywhere especially where i live. I dont want ppl to feel they shouldnt speak of it or enjoy it. Its my job to prepare myself mentally, distance myself, and figure out how i can Deal w it.

I was in a somewhat Big server once n they tried to have Every trigger always censored. Which means well ofc. But i remember they had to slam down on he entire server jus cuz of my trigger. I felt horrible cuz ppl were just excited to talk bout what they were doing. Thats all.

Like. W friends n small groups? Yea maybe dont talk bout that shit to me i wanna chill. But im such huge servers? Its nearly impossible to handle. Trauma and triggers are much more difficult to account for in such large scales. It cant exactly be realistically done. Its unfortunate, but thats how life is.

Its much better to be open bout it and learn for urself to take urself out of the conversation when it dwells near to such territories. Esp in a server so big. No doubt itll pass fast. Or go to another channel. Idk it jus seems that some weight of triggers n managing such reactions needs to be more On the person w the triggers in such situations

[ghost-of-a-vulture]

Okay so i saw this post by @zlixlriffs (srry 4 ping) and it brought up a memory and i needed to share it but didn't wanna put it on the post

Okay so a few years back i have very specific memories of my grandpa coming home for lunch every day that summer, sitting down on the couch, and watching youtube. And my cousin and i would sometimes sit down and watch with him. I don't remember much about these videos, only that it was almost always the same guy, and he was playing minecraft on this world with his friends. My cousin and i thought this was sooo cool at the time cause we had very limited internet access and didn't know what an mc server was yet.

I was like ten/eleven at the time okay-

But i remember that there was this big shopping area, i think one of the stores was a boat, i remember there was a boat can someone please confirm there was a boat, everyone had elytra and that was really cool to me, there were a lot of British guys, i remember there being some building with a lot of yellow, it was like a mansion or something i think it was near the shops, there was some guy with a mustache, there was a whole thing about stealing the mustache, the guy we were watching had some store on the server, there was this huge white building in the middle of the ocean, really bad redstone, a lot of complaints about the bad Redstone, water elevators, idk it was weird.

So last summer my cousin and i are once again at my grandparents house for the day, and i, in all my mcyt hyperfixation glory, am trying get my cousin into hermitcraft bc why not. But after awhile we end up just fucking around and we aren't paying attention and its just playing a mix of old Grian videos. Eventually i look up at the tv and its playing what i think was the last episode of season six but im not sure if it was the last. And i see this big white building in the middle of the ocean, there's emeralds from the shop being counted, theres just like.. chests sitting out in this megabase and i think there may have been a mustache involved too. And i remember all these things from watching these videos with my grandpa and i start cackling. My cousins incredibly confused and practically scream " holy shit grandpas a hermitcraft fan" my cousin is still confused. So i switch to my grandpas account on the tv and i go into his subscriptions and yep. Hes subscribed to Grian so we both start howling bc this is insanely funny to us that our grandpa, who has four kids, five grandchildren, has published several books and is also a blackbelt in tae kwon do is subscribed to Grian. Dont know why. Its just really funny for some reason.

So later that day my grandpa comes upstairs to get a drink and my dumbass walks up behind him and asks if hes ever heard of hermitcraft. He says no. I ask him if hes ever heard the name Grian. Hes like " oh yeah i know what you're talking about"

my cousin starts laughing

I start laughing

My now very confused grandpa just up and leaves.

hi ricky hiiii ^_^ what’re some of your thoughts on the whole dream smp “dying” kinda analysis posts going around

hi ciara ^_^ 

i honestly agree with everything it said. i think having the "dream smp" as its own brand (ie selling merch, making official social media pages) would've obviously kept it around longer however its a logistical nightmare (as the post says), dream himself doesn’t seem interested in doing that, and i think it'd kill a lot of the charm of the smp. i think a lot of people got into it because it was just silly friends goofing around on their friend's server. it's authentic, not some predetermined group of people that some manager somewhere is hoping can bring in views(unless dream is playing the long game and it is exactly this). so i think it having an official brand might kill that charm, but thats just me. also having it as its own brand would most likely create weird drama and tension that would also kill some of the authentic friendship vibes. but, they already created a brand for themselves without making an "official" dream smp brand. CCs can still throw "dream smp" in a title and get more views. when you say dream smp on twitch or youtube, people know of it and roughly know the CCs involved.

(more of my thots about how they could’ve done things differently)

i think they definitely could’ve been more delicate with their momentum without turning it into an official brand or org. they seemed to realize how popular it was, speedrun a ton of lore, and then get burnt out so now theres no lore. i literally remember people saying they couldn’t keep up with lore earlier in the year. obviously that is not the case now. i think if they were more organized and intentional about it earlier on, they could’ve found ways to make it last longer.

ultimately, i think theres two ways to view the dsmp. as a storytelling medium, and as a little server for friends to be silly together on. personally, i’m more interested in the latter. but the former is exciting too, except now we are getting waaayyyy less of both. i think the positive is that if you like the dream smp because you get to watch friends simply be funny together, you get that now in the form of vlogs, alt streams, irl streams, etc., which is why i didn't care that much when quackity announced he wasn't doing non-lore on the dsmp anymore. i mean, when's the last time he even went on there prior to that stream? the downside is that the creators who were apart of the OG dsmp don’t need to stream or upload as often as they used to. they also seem less interested in continuing lore, again, maybe because they don't need to. they're some of the biggest creators on the platform.

i think one way they could've combat the dsmp "dying" is adding more people more frequently. i think now it is kind of divided between OGs that people associate with dsmp (feral boys, sbi, bbh, niki, fundy, tubbo, jack, ranboo, you get the idea) and newer creators! i thought i remember seeing something about michael still feeling like an outsider on a server that he belongs to. or, going back awhile, when hannah redecorated spawn and her chat got mad at her. the dream smp started as a very specific set of people and places, and the dsmp without those people, places, and conflicts, can seem so different that it doesn’t even feel like the dsmp to some. i think if dream added more people over time, it could’ve given them time to mingle with the content creators on there and have their own little inside jokes and stuff rather than just feeling like theyre intruding. adding more people more regularly would’ve given it room to breathe and grow naturally, so that OGs like tommy and tubbo (random examples) can move on with their lives and people wont freak out because the "dsmp is dying" because they'll be new people there to pick up the slack.

anyway. that was long. sorry. sorry if anything didn’t make sense. i definitely rambled for a while but i think this is very interesting so ty for asking :D

[pluralrights]

do you have any advice on how to realize if ur plural or not/how to come to terms w being plural ?? ive been thinking about it for a while and sometimes i almost fully agree that i am and then i immediately go back around and say theres no way i can be,,, i know that theres ways to be plural w/o trauma (i dont. think i have trauma ? if i do, it wouldnt have been until i was 12, that i can remember at least) but all of my friends tht r systems r very anti-endo so it kinda scares me to think tht i might b an endo system,,, and while if i /was/ plural itd explain a lot of things but im also scared that the only reason i think im plural is because ive been doing research on dissociative disorders for a project (even though ive been questioning before that,,,). the thought of being plural itself doesn't scare me (id prolly only tell like one person LMAO) but jus,, idk theres jus Something stopping me from accepting it nd idk if its bc im faking it or bc i jus don wan accept it.

HOLY SHIT THIS IS LONG IM SO SORRY tl;dr could u help give some advice on how to realize/come to terms w being plural ??

Hey anon!! We didnt spend much time questioning plurality ourselves (though accepting it as a positive thing was a Lot longer of a process) so we don’t have much specific advice, but generally a few things-

- You can’t fake things accidentally!! You can be wrong or mistaking your experiences for something else, but there’s nothing wrong with that. Exploring your identity in general is a good thing! Even if you’re not yet 100% sure, doing things like trying to reach out to your system members, making them pluralkit profiles, and making a plural tumblr and just generally seeing if identifying/presenting as plural feels right can be helpful!!

-From what im getting i think having your friends negatively view your identity is making things harder for you, and thats definitely a hard situatuation, but i think joining some inclusive plural spaces (ie, discord servers) that welcome questioning systems (most do!) could be helpful for you as well (we’ve reblogged some links to ones we personally think are comfortable before!)

We wish you the best of luck and hope youre having a good day <3!!

[funky-furby]

rough furby fandom timeline

reminiscencing abt old furblr made me wanna revisit some of the changes we’ve seen over time! to give new people an idea of it, and also to spark discussion with older members, i joined in 2017 and i havent been as active as of 2019 so i cant speak of prior or after, but heres my thoughts

2017

fandom is still small, but growing

focus is on them as toys

lots of posts are guides on names of colors, or how to push start

2005s are not very popular, i saw someone struggle to sell 2 working ones just because their beaks were damaged

besides the pink ones, people really liked those

i also lost a bid war on an orange 2005 that ended up going for 50 bucks, do you  understand the regret i feel

lots of furbys are cheap, furbys in general are cheap, besides the occasional person thinking their nib snowball is worth 300

rise of furbology (later furbae)

popular for owning a lot of furbys, and owning a very very roughed up frog furby called swampy

theres discourse abt drawing furbys with 4 feet

small nature of fandom means that discourse usually involves people everyone knows directly (furbyconfessions accidentally contributes to drama but some spin off accounts purposefully try and start it, furby discourse blogs are a thing)

small nature also means that a lot of people remember each others furbys by name

each furby usually has a personality attached to it too, describing things that furby tends  to do more than others, or what its physical differences mean (like being mute)

furby brotherhood is the only furby discord server and it gains notoriety due to the lack of moderation but in my experience it was a really fun wild ride

customization is fairly limited to maybe drawing on freckles, accessories, eyechips (people were poking them out with needles), to my knowledge tracer was the first popular furby to have further customizing

furby blogs humour is very silly, lots of piss and vore jokes

customized furbys from ebay sellers are pretty widely disliked, usually because theyre the clay ones, or because theres a lady trying to pass off her customs as rare releases that never happened

people go out of their way to help each other  find listings for their dreamies

2018

purity culture? in furblr? since a lot of people use furbys to cope (many many posts of people bringing them out in public, describing what  they and their furbys did), theres a pressure for furby blogs to be happy safe places, safefurby tag to avoid swearing and other stuff is started?, and also to avoid hatred in the main tag

theres like, a 70% chance of anyone u interact with in the fandom being a 15 year old trans guy on the autism spectrum, similarities make it really easy to make friends

considering special interests also usually mean wanting to know as much as possible, there is a WELL of information still

rise in popularity also means a lot more information is found abt furbys, like prototypes, a new factory and more obscure merchandise

since a lot of people empathize with  furbys, damaged or not completely working furbys start to go for higher prices than previously as people empathize with them

that one furby that was found in the desert (bumbleweed) gets REALLY popular

rise in customizing coincides with more stylization in how people draw furbys

whenever someone comes up with a new idea u’d see a lot of it in the next week

like stuffing a furby to make them fat, that one took OFF

painting fur and also furby patterns to sew own skins creates a strange demand for  just the furbys faceplate

furbys start to get strange names, like hot  dog water

fall of furbae as shes revealed as a scammer among other reasons

crap ton of new furby discords are started, for specific topics, or just to avoid brotherhood despite them having a completely new mod team (im a little biased)

theres a still a large overlap in furblr with animatronic and other toy robot blogs

an age of really creative stuff tho, content was constantly evolving

oddbodies are a controversial addition to customizing, longfurby wasnt the first, but i do remember a lot of people taking the faces off of plushes and adding a furby face instead

before they were called oddbodies some people were really uncomfortable with them, but people also didnt like their furby friends being tagged bodyhorror, so oddbody was a good compromise

people were calling dibs on listings before, but its more widespread here, even though you cant call dibs on an open listing

furby prices go through the roof oh my god

kid cuisines especially, i saw more than one person pay 600

2005s go up in price too

oddbodies also caused rise in price on furby buddies

2019

mainstream success?

customization and oddbodies seems to the fandoms focus?

customization starts to overtake previous guides to the point where i see newbies struggle to find information

Plushification

First plush ones have clay eyes, later ones add in the eyes of the original furbys

Some controversy over taking apart furbys

popularity from within  and outside of the community further effects prices

since 2012s are both really common, and not popular their prices seem pretty unaffected (besides rainbow crystals)

at this point i think people are taking their furbys out with them less, and i see less people make stories abt what they and their furbys did that day

customization trends were really really cool to watch happen, but since my reasons for being in furblr was the community nature of it, i have a lot less information  for 2019 as i was less active in the fandom

and for 2020, i have nothing! so essentially this is me asking, what was 2019 and 2020 furblr for u like? did i remember any older stuff wrong? whats some stuff u wouldve included or have questions about?

[mallowbees]

Hi hi im fairly new to the new mcyt thing (ive only watched the finale) and i was wondering if you could give a quick run-down of the people involved? Whos the guy with the horns in all the fanart is my main question, though apart from techno i know none of these people

Oh!! Well mcyt stands for minecraft youtuber(s) and theres lots of different series by different people but i assume you mean specifically dream smp stuff! I mainly tune into dream smp for the main events and thats about it hgfgh but!

There is:

Dream: As an actual person he’s a speed runner and does various ‘minecraft but __’ and manhunt videos with his friends sapnap and george, smp wise he’s the server owner and i dont really know what he’s usually up to aside from when he participates in wars hfghgf

Tommy: He’s a streamer and does lots of minecraft and events! He’s very loud and fun and smp wise he’s an instagator for most of the wars hfhfgh

Tubbo: Hes very cool he does lots of minecraft and among us streams and hes usually on call with people!! He’s very good at various minecraft things but usually just follows his friends around to hang out, smp wise he ends up being pretty essential to a lot of stuff from being involved with everyone

Wilbur: He doesnt stream super often but he makes really enjoyable videos usually in terms of ‘i made 100 minecraft player __’ and plays on a server with subcribers, smp wise he joined late, started a nation, a revolution, and really kicked up the rp on the server

Schaltt: Hes horn guy! I dont know what he does off smp! He is an enigma to me but he played on smp live, smp wise he showed up for one day, got banned, came back and took up the villian role on the server and was very good at it

Fundy: Hes a cool minecraft streamer too!! He does coding in minecraft (I coded it so __) and hes very fun!! Smp wise his moms a salmon wills his dad and hes has Had A Time for certain

I dont want to add lots of descriptions so theres also:

Nihachu: A lot of emotional rp, absolute joy to have

Eret: Traitor man rp wise, tall boots hell yea

Awesamdude: I dont know what hes been up to he does redstone hes cool!

Antfrost: no idea what hes been up to :’D

Badboyhalo: Love him! He started another nation on the smp

Sapnap: He has mudered so many pets on the smp

George: Hes usually asleep, man

Quackity: Very funny, involved in a lot of rp stuff since the smp election

Alyssa: Was on a lot in the earlier streams not sure how often shes been on recently

Hbomb: Recently joined!! He’s very pog and supportive i remember him from one life i think it was or somthing simular and pixelmon hes great :)

Captainpuffy: Literally joined like?? Yesterday??

Phil: Also joined yesterday!

Technoblade: u know him,, subscribe to technoblade

Maybe more?? but yes,,

[kin-glomerate]

kin memory dump from discord

because the second i get memories i report them to the kin chat in the jojo server

under cut for length. most copy-pasted directly from chatlogs so theyre a bit odd/clunky

secco memories

was missing a bunch of vaccinations from late childhood so cioccolata got me up to date on them

just sort of a memory of standing in the bathroom with my leg propped up on the edge of the sink so cioccolata could give me some sort of shot in my thigh (hrt???? idk, knowing us it couldve been some sort of local anesthetic or something) and after the actual injection he just fuckin...... patted my leg and left the room??????????

i needed my wisdom teeth out, like so bad i was struggling to eat and wouldnt let cioccolata touch my face because of the pain. think i tried to fight him when he was trying to check things out. dont remember much about the actual removal other than him basically having to bribe me into it and it had to happen asap. i think it was somebody who specialized in oral surgery, one of cioccolata's work associates rather than him doing it himself i think??? do remember coming to after it and cio was petting my head and said something like "isnt that better? that wasn't so hard, was it?" but like i couldnt really answer because i a) couldnt feel my mouth on all the painkillers/anaesthetic and b) my mouth was full of gauze. a bit into the healing process when i could finally not have a mouth filled with cotton balls and blood, he got weirdly gushy/excited about being able to look in my mouth and see the stitches

me and cioccolata were doing our thing, you know, snuff films and such and i asked the guy we're busy cutting open something. i wasnt really expecting him to say anything but cioccolata got kind of annoyed at the dude for "being rude" and not answering me

i dont have oasis on so its either before i got my stand or ive just dispelled it for whatever reason (probably by request if thats the case). its very possible im not wearing anything/just wearing underwear??? again not sure why but i know im inside the house, though i cant quite tell if its the bathroom (specifically the tub), the lab (on the surgical table), or the bedroom (either on the bed or sitting at a vanity) anyway- so cioccolata's standing sort of behind me diagonally so hes like just out of my peripheral vision but hes still close enough to be well in arms reach, like directly over my shoulder and im just sort of pliable for the time being (just chillin, not making any sort of movement on my own unless he asks me to demonstrate something) so hes just going through motions pointing and tracing/touching and moving parts of my body and talking about nerve endings and stuff and i dont really retain much of it if im honest with you, it just sounds like pleasant babble and he moves from my arms to talking about the spine and gets up to that soft spot where the vertebra connects to the skull and instead of the just normal steady pressure hes been applying to all the other joints and stuff he sort of absentmindedly rubs circles around it with his middle and ring finger while he talked a bit about the spinal column/brainstem and what all it controls and stuff before he mentioned how the brainstem is one of the human body's "off switches" then just sort of chuckled a little bit and patted my head

mikitaka memories (confirmed!!)

hazamada would usually answer my questions about earth no matter what they were

my friends (josuke, okuyasu, koichi, hazamada, yukako) trying to explain gender to me and it was all very confusing because alien-human disconnect on top of it being the 90s

killer queen memory

reimi was on the phone when she died. she was trying to call for help

gelato memory

watching sorbet sit somewhere, coffee mug in hand, shirtless, thinking something over hard enough his face got that sort of so-intense-its-almost-vacant look. just absentmindedly holding his empty hand up to his chest and brushing his thumb of his left pec. and i couldnt see it at first but theres this light bit of scarring there from a knife carving into it- "gelato". i feel weirdly guilty about it, like i cant remember leaving any other purposeful scars on him, and i get the sinking feeling that when i left that one it hurt. really hurt. and i vaguely remember him noticing me staring and coming over to kiss my forehead and remind me he asked me to do it

[greatcomettexting2]

the thing about the mod steph and mod nero of greatcomettexting is that i never got to parse out how icky they made me feel whenever i drew boundaries but i really want to because i still feel icky about it so ill warm myself some cawfee and do it now

nero talks a lot about how “none of us what REAL callout worthy things hes done!!” but i figure so long as my skins crawling about how obsessed they both were with me then i can risk his constant talk in every new server he joined about how he “has attempted literal actual murder” even if it was just him having an episode in high school and lobbing a brick

mod steph’s already had a huge history of not knowing when to draw boundaries with people and theres a dozen fucking people who can vouch for this because they all stopped talking to her once she started this weird shit. whether it was suicide baiting people into pitying her and listening to her for like all of 2017 or copy pasting other peoples vents to send herself(wild?) in the Vent Channel. clara talks a lot every one or two years about how much shes “changed” but she continually tests these boundaries to fuck around with people and nero isnt better in this respect at all. it felt like sometimes theyd realize something was a boundary for someone and then trigger it on purpose 

like. the first and biggest and weirdest thing is that nero and clara would take entire conversations i’d had years ago and roleplay them out WORD FOR WORD in text or on call. sometimes id get uncomfortable with how clearly they remembered each word in the conversation. this wasnt a one off thing, this went on from 2018 to today, and it really really disturbed me, but i had no idea how to talk to either of them about it, because when i did clara would act like she had no clue what i was talking about, and say shit like ““listen jules, i feel like this is one of those instances where you think somethings happening, but it isnt.” the excuse nero used for this was that “ive always thought jules was so cool” but that doesnt explain copying out entire conversations i had that he shouldnt really remember from as early as 2017. it did feel at times like he enjoyed taking on the role of me in these conversations and saying the things i said out loud. this got very very creepy very very fast

that brings me to the next thing which was this. weird obsessive fascination mod steph had with my approval. there is just so much shit.  she picked up her other name “clara” from a friend i have named kai who used to go by clara--the reason steph picked this name was because i would gush a lot about kai to her (which made me really happy because clara would have borderline suicidal breakdowns when i talked about my other friends.) she got really really fucking uncomfortable whenever i gave approval to anyone else too and would act like. a petulant child if i couldnt give her compliments she wanted. the most recent example of this was that i complimented someones selfie that wasnt hers she stayed cold to me for two days. i finally decided to ask her what was wrong and she admitted she had felt “kind of bad” when i ignored her selfie and when i asked her why she didnt communicate this to me, she explained she gets kind of “mean when shes high” (she doesnt, she has a bpd break for julesyboy’s approval when shes high.) she would also get super uncomfortable when i expressed attraction to Anyone, (romantic OR platonic) and begin comparing herself to them (why do this) on text and on call. a most memorable recent experience of this was when i explained to her in detail about a guy i like who’d bit his knuckle, and then she posted selfies everywhere of her blushing profusely and. biting her knuckle (and it really really wasnt the same, poor thing, she really did try.) theres dozens upon dozens of examples of this

and i realise that whole paragraph is wild and kind of funny if you think about it in the context of... like, a kid who admires the attention of their friend. but clara and nero would try their hardest all the time to test everyones boundaries to the point where it got way too weird. if nero knew something was specific to someones abuse he’d make sure to push them about it or make posts about how “weak!” it was for people to deal with “x and x.” or if someone were to expressed a self harming behaviour he would jump in w “OMG! LISTEN! I DO THIS TOO!!.” or he would make jokes about him “selling pics! this is just a reminder! :3 happy valentines day!” (same post, all platforms) before three of my friends who were sex workers approached me asking if this was a weird little joke. it really did feel like at times he said things he knew would shock people the most. and it really did feel like at times every time someone said something out of the ordinary he would. go out of his way trying to say he did that too, it wasnt a big deal. “it doesnt matter if youve self harmed yourself a lot, have i talked about how i once attempted murder yet. does that sound too edgy? i know people are scared of me... omg... omg omg.” and like this is all fine because if you hear his tinkly baby voice on call none of this shit is all that scary, no matter how much he talks about “how his friends think hes really really tough” (where are his friends.) but it does get a little weird when you think about how much of my trauma i confided in both of these two only to have nero blow it off, and how much they enjoyed doing that thing where they would roleplay out my conversations  from 2017 with nero in the role of saying the things i responded with.

the reason ive typed out this long ass post is bc it literally just made my skin itch a little. it still does. when nero and clara would Do The Thing where they played out jules’ old conversations and . when they would post a lot of selfies with captions like “ahhh i love myself! i promise!” only to see my pictures from 2017 and go “ughh... i was REALLY ugly back then, but i promise im pretty now! clara/nero was ugly too, not gonna lie!” before venting about how they were never satsified w their reflections in the mirror it was weird. when clara would vent every night i didnt compliment like. a fucking selfie of hers. about how Unloved She Truly Was it was weird. like bros i am an abused neet living at home and after im done college im fucking out of here forever... u have nothing to be weirdly obsessed about, and copying out conversations i had with you and things i said to years ago won’t make u love yourself any more

tldr: mods neroratio and stephclara were very microobsessed with my attention and with attention in general to the point where they would literally roleplay being me and act like i was “making things up in my head” when i asked them wtf was wrong. and if you remember them from greatcomettexting and admired them for speaking their truth then like. this is what they were like

Autistic Acceptance Month Challenge - Day 3

All the Questions are Here!  April 3: Talk about special interests. Do you have any? What are they? How long have you had them? What does it feel like to have special interests? What does having special interests mean to you? Talk about your past special interests

Editing Note: “HA - of course the Special Interest Question took the longest to write and had  just a WALL of text. Apologies to anyone who wants to read it but I appreciate everyone who does” _____ under the readmore _____

I have a few special interests going at the moment! At the moment after about 9-10 years I’m still in my Team Fortress 2 phase. I’m also really into Dungeons and Dragons! Aesthetically and Stylewise I’m really into Wizards and Westerns like cowboys n stuff. (though I may go into what exactly because people assume a lot from me and its just not my cup of tea)

To me, a special interest is an interest or an idea that I really love, and will defend with all my heart to keep doing. Its something that gives me purpose, but also gives me peace. It keeps me grounded in a topic that I can fall back onto - which is why it helps to seek out friends who at least share a little bit about your special interest, so that they can see where youre coming from when you wanna talk about it! I know its not mandatory, but I remember loving just HOW much I knew about the Fable series! Back in the day that was a big one for me, so I remember if my mum or sister ever needed me to sit still for some reason, they’d ask me about Fable stuff. Sure it feels dumb nowadays to think about but I guess at the time I was excited and thought they wanted to know!

I’ve heard from others that its a hyperfocus on a topic, and knowing every little in and out of it. I remember being so mad about this when I heard from a neurotypical friend that he had an “Autistic level” of interest in Fighting Games. I asked him if he was autistic and he said no, and I knew it was no too. So how could he know what an “Autistic Level” of focus looked like? Just because he worked with them as a teacher? No way.  For example, I am learning new things about Team Fortress 2 all the time! I don’t retain them that well, because a lot of it is console commands but I always am down to hear about things going on in the community, and if I’m online and someone wants a game - I’m pretty much ready to drop everything I’m doing and joining them! I don’t know everything about the story, or the characters (even though theres not much) - I don’t have an encyclopedic knowledge of it and I most likely never will. My love for TF2 comes from playing the game! I just love playing it! I love that I can dress myself up as a cowboy or a Wizard or whatever I like and absolutely pubstomp some new players! (but then of course tellem GG and hope to see them again soon! - yknow, nice player stuff). People say the game is dying but If I can join a server and its completely full? Nah no way the games dead. Just wish Valve would pick it up from time to time.

But that last paragraph made me think of something, I ramble! I think thats a common trait with Autistic people, and its one I definitely have. I generally have to be stopped because I don’t know when is the right time! Sometimes I just have so so much to say on a topic because its finally something I can talk about!! I’m known as a quiet type, often being reserved and keeping to myself. But if I’m talking about Solar Farms, Piling, or my hobby intrests like TF2 and D&D I can’t stop, man. 

Other special interests I’ve had in the past were (I’ll list em but maybe comment on honourable mentions) 1) Solar System + Planets specifically 2) Dinosaurs 3) Dragons - Hon Mention: I had like over 30 dragon statuettes just around my room and often I would stim by poking their horns! I thought they were SO cool. 4) Tim Burton Films - Other than TF2 one of my longest running SIs, but I’ve been over Tim Burton films maybe since I decided I wouldnt defend Dark Shadows. I wasnt a big fan of that movie and I stopped keeping up with stuff TB made since. 5) Skyrim, and Fantasy Games in general. 6) Borderlands, this series was very intoxicating for me. I remember at the time I started dating a girl overseas about a day or two before Borderlands 2 released, and then when it came out, I played the game so much with my best friend Jake that I forgot I was dating them - and forgot to speak to them for about 3-4 days. They thought I died? Or something? It was wild! They were very mad and hated Borderlands afterwards because of it. Anyway I did want to briefly mention near the end of the post about how one of my main loves at the moment is Wizards and Cowboys. Its funny like. Wizard media on the whole I love with all my heart. But cowboys??? No. Honestly, not at all. In fact I think I really dislike almost all cowboy and western media. What I do love with all my heart and soul is the movie The Good The Bad and the Ugly!, also the whole Dollars Trilogy, and on that- the idea and persona of The Man With No Name.

I see cowboy content and I can’t stand most of it. 

Though an exception to this would be video game cowboys, and gunslingers. I also love it so much when people see a Gunslinger like Jesse McCree in Overwatch, or even just flat seeing The Good the Bad and The Ugly with people who know to call me Blondie from online - and they say “Hey thats you!” :P that always makes me laugh - but I like it. 

Special Interests are really important.

I think they should be celebrated and loved, so long as they aren’t helping anyone!

Happy Autism Acceptance Month!
