i feel like no one really wants to hear that sleep/exercise/nutrition/hydration are major factors in treating mental health issues bc we’ve all talked to that person who thinks your depression would be cured by one good session of goat yoga or whatever but unfortunately they do help and i’m chronically annoyed about it

New Boom Technology! But it’s a movie poster or smth bc sure why not. They think they’re so cool (they are, but in the goofy goober way).

Closeup and a low-effort mini comic below

These two are more than capable of being the most powerful duo on the server, but it’s as if their brain cells don’t want to share the same space, so they end up with none when together. Best kind of dynamic. Keep it up, guys!

all the Thoughts i have about my ocs and their world. forgive me if i tell this like im vaguely recalling a book i read in 2nd grade but thats just how my ocs are to me.

set in somewhere that doesn't exist (or, maybe it does. idk.) imagine coastal Portugese town had a baby with rural texas, with a dash of The 80s/90s™ thrown in

i want bugs and insects to be the central focus. hence one reason why the texas part of the setting is so important. there are so many damn bugs here its crazy

i want the story to start out with an interesting premise (duh) but also trick the reader about what kind of story its going to be (yk, something lightish, introspective, somewhat cute, mainly standard online comic). by the end its gonna be like. psychological horror

concept: fae, but make them aliens.

im basing this off of 6 characters that have been revamped several times. however i am considering just. deleting one of them because they dont add anything at all. will, however, keep him kind of in my quick grab-bag if i need another character

characters include: - ry, he/him, pan+ace, autistic Brazilian trans guy whos dealing with some (denied) depression - clove, she/her, lesbian, Black, honestly im currently redoing her entire personality so yeah, she messes with the Space Fae™ aaaand now shes turning very quickly into an insect and frantically trying to discover a cure. - erid, they/he, mlm, some kind of eldritch horror creature (but i dont think he used to be this way), has done some morally questionable things mainly for the sake of his younger sibling figure (drumroll please)....... - saturn, aforementioned younger sibling figure, any/all, possibly some kind of deer, maybe even more messed up and powerful than erid, trying xer best <3 - and finally, niki. she/he but will respond to anything also mainly lesbian but would probably date anyone with a good eyeliner game, main love interest for clove. fish girl, pink hair, all that jazz

ideas for an actual plot? None whatsoever.

i want there to be Big Heist/secret society/Shenanigans stuff occuring. possibly a murder plot.

ah who am i kidding, definitely a murder plot.

its about going crazy with your obsession about 'fixing' a part of yourself that most people find gross and weird and terrifying and being horrified because you're turning into something undesirable

but then its also about realizing this was always a part of you, the change was catalyzed by your fear, you were always going to turn out like this, its ok, if you learn to love yourself then others will follow (although, its always so great when others show you the way)

its about going off the deep end!! its about looking at yourself and realizing "oh, shit! i'm kind of caving in to make room for the void growing inside me!" and its about falling in the chasm and seeing whats inside and accepting the dark as part of who you are

its about destroying the voice in your head that screams that you're not useful

Its about Moral Ambiguity. Its about The Greys inbetween Good™ and Bad™. Its about forgiveness. Its about learning that even though the world hates you, the universe loves you.

Most importantly, It's about Gay!!

Thanks for listening, expect nothing more from me on this topic. Good day 👋

do you guys wanna hear about my ocs and the story i just came up with in like 5 minutes

#salt yells at cloud #salts Specialest Little Guys #my ocs #ocs on tumblr #original character #maybe expect some art idk wait who said that ooOOoOoo

watching xb's hermit Q&A and he asks everyone "what inspired you to start making videos" and NEARLY EVERY SINGLE PERSON SAYS ETHO. and they all just unanimously agree that hermitcraft probably wouldn't exist without etho

My Roman Empire is how the life series writes itself. Here are some coincidences that I think about frequently:

1. Every person who has ever won a life series (Real Life included) was paired with another winner in Double Life (Grian & Scar, Scott & Pearl, Martyn & Cleo)

2. Several members had patterns in their deaths in Secret Life (All of Grian’s deaths happened while a large portion of the remaining server members were present, all of Scott’s deaths were arranged & he let whoever killed him kill him, all of Etho’s deaths were from Scar killing him, all of Jimmy’s deaths were from mobs of increasing strength (drowned, dragon & warden), all of Mumbo’s deaths were because of poor walking (walked off a ledge, walked into lava, walked into his own fence posts) & all of Martyn’s deaths happened in different dimensions)

3. Jimmy being out first 4 times in a row

4. Grian winning 3rd Life & then being dead last in the VR recreation of 3rd Life

5. Mumbo always having his final death moments after Jimmy’s final death

6. Pearl & Scar winning their seasons after being the underdog the entire season & having it the hardest

7. The first interaction Etho & Joel had in the entire life series was while they were in boats

8. Every time Scott is in the final two, whoever loses dies to a mob they didn’t know was behind them (Ren in Last Life, Scott in Real Life)

9. Jimmy always cursing at least one of his allies to do horribly each season (3rd Life was Scott’s lowest placement ever, 10th. Last Life: both Mumbo & Impulse were in the bottom 4. Double Life: Tango played poorly and was responsible for 2/3 of their deaths. Limited Life, Joel was out third & The Bad Boys died A LOT. Secret Life: Martyn was the first yellow AND the first red despite literally winning the previous season. EVEN REAL LIFE, Jimmy teamed with Grian, Joel, Scar & Impulse, who were the first 4 to be eliminated.)

10. Since Double Life, Pearl has wanted her allies to win the current seasons, she has outlived all of her main allies every season since then (Big B in Limited Life & Mumbo, BDubs & Joel in Secret Life)

11. Joel literally & metaphorically being the reason Lizzie was the first one out instead of Jimmy in Secret Life (Lizzie only died because she was trying to kill Scott to help out with Joel’s assassin task, by the time she tried to kill him & died in the process, Joel had already failed his task & just hadn’t told her yet, so if he had told her that he had failed, she wouldn’t have taken Scott to the end & fallen into the void & Jimmy probably would’ve first out again. Also when they were hosting an early funeral for Jimmy, Joel opened the grave & told Jimmy to “Rise”, I think this was Joel unknowingly breaking the curse.)

12. The fact that Gem’s final death is always her coming 3rd & dying in a 2v1 situation.

13. Joel’s first death in Last Life was fall damage, his first death in Secret Life was also fall damage. The reason Joel ended up on red life in Last Life was because of the Boogeyman curse (both times), in Secret Life, he because red because of being killed by a Boogeyman. In Last Life Joel’s final death was at the hands of Scott, causing him to place 5th, in Secret Life, Joel’s final death was being killed by Scott, causing him to place 5th. I’m leaving out one of Joel’s Last Life deaths, specifically when he died to Mumbo in self defence, but that’s mostly cuz there are more deaths in Last Life than Secret Life

This isn’t even all of them, there are so many more!

the one issue about the hermit post system is that when you receive mail, the shulker box doesn't state who sent the mail, unless the sender wrote their name down on a piece of paper. because of this, hermits are able to frame other hermits by sending mail using another hermit's name, while the real sender is left anonymous.

while joel is away in japan for two weeks, it's a perfect time for pranking!.....etho

-on stream, cleo said that they are planning on filling joel's mailbox with love confessions from etho. for example, "this made me think of you" and "do you like me? check yes or no."

-someone left a "love joel x" sign at iskall's base. as a response, iskall is spamming joel's mailbox with love letters and flowers, saying "hi x" and "thinking about you x". the thing is... iskall didn't leave his name on any of the notes he sent.

alongside cleo's love confessions from etho, it is very likely that joel will think iskall's love letters are also from etho. it's boutta be the "joel xo" and etho statues all over again

anyways, the hermits are having too much fun with the mail system, which is great because pearl, etho, and tango worked really hard on it. all i know is that when joel comes back online, he's gonna have a big surprise waiting for him lol
