so there’s a pretty well known minecraft server called 2b2t that was originally made by facepunch/4chan idiots at least five years ago with the goal of creating a server that 1. has no moderation and 2. never changes maps. naturally a lot of idiot griefer players were attracted to this concept and basically turned the server into a lawless hellworld where any new player is at the mercy of the griefer warlords. the griefers built a colossal, monolithic cobblestone wall around the worldspawn so new players with no items wouldn’t be able to escape from it, allowing griefers with powerful equipment to spawnkill new players as much as they liked. new players punched dozens of tiny little tunnels through this wall which created a way to escape the worldspawn area if you explored enough
one time in july of 2012 i heard about this server and decided to explore it a bit. that’s what the huge wall around the worldspawn looked like from outside the worldspawn. the worldspawn was basically the epicenter of a massive radius of uninhabitable land where stuff like trees and animals had all been stripped away by griefers to make it as hard as possible to survive. i managed to run fairly far away from the worldspawn and reach an area that looked relatively normal and uninhabited so i dug a small underground bunker at the bottom of the world and planted a couple farms and logged out. i kind of forgot about it after that and didn’t log back in until i randomly remembered the server existed again in march of 2015 and decided to see if my little bunker was still there which is when i discovered that it was and saw this REALLY good sign somebody had left after discovering it
at that time in 2015 i just kind of laughed and took that screenshot and explored my bunker a bit and saw that people had come and destroyed the farms i had built and holed up the entrance to my bunker but otherwise left it in tact, which made me pretty proud. i logged out and forgot about the server again until just now (august of 2017) when i logged back in again. my bunker was pretty much the same as in 2015 except that funny sign had been removed by someone. i didn’t go back up to the surface when i had logged in in 2015, so decided to dig myself back up and see what it was like
when i originally dug down in this area in 2012, it just looked like any other naturally generated tundra/forest biome in minecraft. what i found when i came back up to the surface just now five years later was a strange massive manmade cobblestone structure and several giant fountains of lava. there weren’t any other players nearby. someone had spawned four withers nearby which seemed to (thankfully) be stuck in a ditch like area and were just blowing shit up indefinitely. i wandered around and found another underground base near mine which happened to have some melons growing in it, so i took a few to resupply the melons in my griefed farm. i got a bit lost but finally found the hole leading back to my bunker and buried myself again and planted my melon seeds. i can hear the wither explosions from my bunker now, which is kind of worrying. i don’t really feel like doing anything else in here so maybe i’ll log back in and 2020 and see if my little bunker with the melons is still there then
ive been waiting for people to start sharing these kinds of minecraft stories because it’s one of the most fascinating internet communities that’s ever existed imo
was this joke maybe the dumbest one he’s ever done? yes. did it make me laugh so hard that i cried? also yes
“you dumb piece of shit! despicable people, how am i related to you” has the same energy as “you dumb piece of shit! i cant believe we share genetic material, you make me so angry. i hate your guts”
man imagine if elon musk got run over by one of his own stupid electric cars and just like fucking died from it. i’d be refreshing reddit the entire day. having the time of my fuckin life.
I get that the Tumblr people have a natural affinity for hating someone who gained success and is capable of actually making (small) change in the world, but if anything is below you guys, it’s the death wishes.
Do better ♥️
the cropped hentai avatar man really wants you to know it’s not funny to joke about elon musk dying, specially not from being extremely slowly run over by a shitty tesla clown car making goofy circus noises
i can’t believe superwholock existed as one the largest fandom(s) on this website. there hasn’t been a trace of it on my dashboard in years. No mention, no whisper. a ghost. i still follow people who reblogged it. i myself reblogged it. and yet here we are, not daring to ever mention it. im risking my life making this po
Guys listen. Listen. At the start of this year, the year of our lord 2019, I was chatting to an actor in this play I was stage managing and she mentioned offhand that she’s thinking of getting a tattoo.
“Oh,” I say. “Of what?”
She looks a bit awkward. “Um. Have you ever heard of this thing called Superwholock?”
Let me tell you I aged about twenty years in the span of the next ten seconds where she started to explain Superwholock to me like it’s some new thing that’s just spawned into existence and I know, instinctively, that I will not survive this conversation, I am not strong enough, so I cut her off. “Uh, yeah. I know of Superwholock. I’ve been on Tumblr for a while.”
“What’s Tumblr?” she asks.
Guys… I think Superwholock is still out there. They just changed home base. I didn’t ask where her Superwholock community was because there are some things beyond mortal ken, some things that would surely drive one mad should one attempt to find them.
Pinterest. It’s Pinterest.
What is happening
as someone who recently moved from pinterest to Tumblr, I can assure you superwholock lives on along with merlin, lotr, and ur weird ass posts about wanting a fandom themed school.
i’m getting war flashbacks
THE ANCIENT TEXTS
“what’s tumblr” THEYRE JUST. ITS JUST SCREENSHOTS OF TUMBLR. ON PINTEREST. ITS STILL TUMBLR ITS JUST SCREENSHOTS
just once I want to see a good post critiquing makeup culture that doesn’t turn out to be made by some janky radfem blog
oh hey!! I’m not a janky radfem I can do it myself!
makeup culture is wack and normalizes a ludicrously high bar as the bare minimum women can do. I saw a “lazy"makeup tutorial the other day that listed 22 separate goddamn products. you’re supposed to buy and know how to use 22 different things on your face just for the privilege of being considered lazy and that’s uuuuuuh what’s the word? bullshit.
Really, five products could work, even 3. Just frame the face, eyes, lips, and you’re done.
0 products also works great
because I’m gonna be real here, the idea that 22 products is a minimum sucks but it’s really upsetting that any amount of makeup is the bare minimum at all
I would really just suggest some powder foundation, concealer, mascara and lipgloss/lipstick, or tbh just mascara works too, but that’s up to you
I’m sorry if I didn’t express this clearly enough in the original post but I’m not really looking for more concise makeup regiments. my intention was to point out how it’s Bad that makeup is considered a bare minimum at all, regardless of individual feelings on the matter
no face should be “required” to have “a minimum” of makeup. makeup has no health benefits and does nothing but fill the pockets of companies that prey on women and our insecurities.
makeup should not be seen as hygiene because it isnt. get that shit out of your head.
this post: makeup culture is ridiculous and 22 products should not be considered a minimum requirement for someones face. no one should have to do that
the notes: so like……. what youre saying is……. we need to make the minimum about 5 or 6 instead… i gotcha
Really the only makeup you need is eyeliner but that’s just my personal opinion
