how it feels going from a bdubs hermitcraft episode and to a joel hermitcraft episode

[turbopotato]

I know Dogwarts is often seen as a super loyal and unified group in fanon, but from a recent rewatch of Third Life, this is honestly my read on Dogwarts as a group.

Kinda proud of myself

The other fascinating thing to me is how often I feel like Grian's held to a higher standard than other people are.

Grian's "ultimate betrayal" kill on Scar in Limited Life when they were barely teamed is often shown as proof Grian's a traitor who is Bad for his teammates, but somehow Scar blatantly betraying Grian in Third Life after an entire season of being partners is often just a footnote that's barely brought up and not dwelled on.

Grian scamming Scar out of a life in Last Life is a cruel betrayal of Scar's trust in him but it's fine actually that Scar spent all episode up to that point trying to scam people because that's how Scar is and he's just Silly.

Grian 'cheating' on Scar by pursuing BigB is vindictive and selfish and hurt Scar so much but Scar doing stuff like hurting Grian on purpose to punish him for arguments over housework isn't a big deal.

Mumbo and Jimmy attacking Grian repeatedly in Last Life is fair game but Grian retaliating while they were trying to kill him is frequently counted as "team killing" and considered a betrayal of their prior alliance.

Grian accidentally getting Jimmy killed in Limited Life is proof he doesn't value his teams, but Jimmy getting his teammates killed is an understandable mistake.

Grian is ridiculed by Mumbo in Wild Life for not giving him a life, but of course noone expected Mumbo to give Grian lives the few times Grian turned red in Last Life while Mumbo wasn't.

When Grian is unhinged over Mumbo generally ("we can still be friends..") it's toxic but when Mumbo is unhinged over Grian in arguably worse ways ("you don't need friends" + 10000 cheating accusations) it's understandable or he's just being Silly and it's harmless.

When other players switch teams because their team died or fell apart, it's understandable, when Grian looks for a new team after his dies, he's devaluing his team.

When other players win, it's celebrated, when Grian wins through a fair fight with his partner it's the sign of his bloodlust and future team killings.

When other players lose teammates, they get sympathy, when Grian loses teammates- even when he had nothing to do with their deaths-we whisper about his curse and try to find reasons to blame him.

When other players make a mistake, it's a mistake, when Grian makes a mistake, he's a killer, a monster, one of Them, a blight or a curse upon the people around him, who was never meant to be here at all.

Grian is held to a higher standard than other people frequently, even though Grian is maybe the most likely player to hold himself responsible for things on his own.

And I just think that's sad.

Lost to Emus, What’s a Kangaroo Gonna Do?

[turbopotato]

tangotek the kind of guy to make a redstone contraption that fails and blows up in his face, and when the smoke clears from the explosion he is completely pitch black due to all of the ash, except for his eyes, which are still visible and go "blink blink" before he shakes the ashes off and is completely back to normal

[turbopotato]

What your favorite Hermit says about you! (In the style of Blake Jennings)

DISCLAIMER: THIS IS ALL IN GOOD FUN AND JEST. NONE OF THESE ARE TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY. Also all of these are based mostly on vibes and minimally on research. If you wanna check out the guy whose videos inspired this post, you can click here.

WITH THAT OUT OF THE WAY, ONTO THE SHAMING!

BdoubleO100: Chronic scratcher. You've never thrown a proper punch in your life but my god you've turned multiple people's arms into segmented paper after they looked at you funny.

Cubfan135: It's low-hanging fruit to say you're the most neurodivergent person in any room you enter. It's high-hanging fruit to say you're the neurodivergent who spends uncomfortable amounts of time in games like The Sims or People Playground perfecting your handmade torture chambers and killing machines.

DocM77: Horny jail. Your W.I.Ps would get you flogged by a priest in the town square, and there's a non-zero chance you'd actually be into that.

Ethoslab: A majority of the time, you're relatively normal passing. But the times you aren't you are a magnitude 10 quirkquake. This is both an insult and a compliment.

Falsesymmetry: Ah, perfectionists. You poor lot are masters at getting stuck in the "wanting things to be perfect vs knowing you don't have enough skill to make it perfect" loop which leads you into doing nothing and then developing depression.

Geminitay: Out of every hermit fanbase, Gem mains are the ones I believe most when they say they'd kill and die for their hermit. Like everyone else you can just go "haha funny! I am also a fan of hyperbolic humour" but with Gemboys you're not quite sure if bestie is joking or admitting to premeditated assault.

Grian: I get the feeling that you are the type of person who, when asked what you want to eat, will say "I'm fine with anything!" but you'll get genuinely frustrated if they pick something you didn't want.

GoodtimeswithScar: You guys are the embodiment of the bed of nails vs one nail phenomenon. The most traumatic thing could happen to you and you're like "eh" but if a stranger called you mid you would start sobbing.

Hypnotizd: WHERE ARE YOU?! What kind of dark, hidden discord servers do you people hide in??? Hypno mains are like the goddamn Higgs-Boson, finding evidence of one existing in public is damn near impossible but you MUST EXIST or there would be a fundamental error in the fabric of the universe. I can't even poke fun at you because I CANNOT FIND YOU.

iJevin: I'm guessing Vulture Culture is very important to you. If it's not, it's only a matter of time until it will be.

ImpulseSV: You, like him, are a cavalcade of undiagnosed mental disorders that you don't feel like getting treated. Really, the only difference between you and him is the fact that you are a lesbian.

Joe Hills: Your right-wing older relatives call you a woke leftist and your cousins call you a weirdo. What no one will call you is a maladaptive daydreamer because you've at least got the sense to keep that to yourself at family reunions.

Keralis: *sigh* Daddy kink. And that's all the descriptive words you deserve because you are neither slick nor subtle with it.

MumboJumbo: He is babygirl. You want to be babygirl. You are not babygirl. You're sitting on your throne of bones and this man is the bunny you pet while you watch the heroes lose to you in children's card games.

PearlescentMoon: Hello art kids! Specifically, art kids who could not have a normal student-teacher relationship with art teachers. There was at least one art teacher in your life who either adored you or hated your guts and which one you got completely depended on how neurodivergent YOU were and how neurodivergent THEY were. (This includes all forms of art)

Rendog: People who are most likely to be turned into bangmaids by their boyfriend/girlfriend. Look, it's completely okay that you like your partners a little bit cringe and pathetic and dumb, but remember that weaponized incompetence is not sexy!

Skizzleman: You have daddy issues, or you have intimacy issues. You could even have both. Whatever you have, you NEED to seek therapy because he cannot fix you.

Smallishbeans (Joel): You're the type of person who's kinda obsessed with the idea of biting people as a show of affection. Which is unfortunate because associating that behavior with a brunette British man historically hasn't ended well.

TangoTek: Oh my god, PICK A STRUGGLE. Are you addicted to having 500 problems at once and 65% of them are self-inflicted? I can't think of any other reason you'd do these things to yourself because it's not like you ENJOY this, you meet every single battle with the disposition of a SOAKED CAT.

VintageBeef: I know you'd lose ALL self-respect if you met a man (or woman) like Beef in a bar or club. Like, biblical levels of self-disrespect. You'd lose all morals, all convictions, everything you've ever known about the world and yourself, just for a chance. I don't know if it's admirable or really, really sad.

Welsknight: Oof, how's that religious trauma treating you? If you were brought up in a non-religious environment, swap this out with that emptiness you feel when you realize you will never be able to truly convince yourself to believe in any faith, even if you want to.

xBCrafted: Hey diva, how's your mid-to-late 20s going? Still having a crisis over being able to drink fewer and fewer glasses of wine without feeling like death in the morning? Oh, you're not in your mid-to-late 20s? Damn, you've probably been called an old soul your entire life, and I'm not sure you've realized yet that it's not a good thing.

Xisumavoid: It's hard to pick on you guys because you already have it hard enough, so let me give you some advice instead. DO NOT DATE THAT TRADWIFE/TATER TOT YOU'RE CHECKING OUT. I know the temptation is there but YOU CANNOT FIX THEM. THEY WILL RUIN YOUR LIFE.

Zedaph: You could not explain your gender identity to your cishet family members if you tried. Honestly, you couldn't explain it to your fellow gays either. You have ascended to gender beyond most people's imagination.

ZombieCleo: You have a thing for authority, don't you? You want nothing more than for a person higher up the food chain to tell you straight up what to do at all times so you don't have to navigate the minefield that is small talk with people you don't know.

And that's all of them! Thank you for reading through this project of mine! If the comment under your favorite hermit doesn't fit you, feel free to write your own in the tags or something. Or yell at me for being stupid and dumb and bad and knowing nothing about you. We love free will and attention here at the Eluminium Tumblr blog.
