the state of my executive dysfunction is that i was halfway through a cookie clicker update when i realized all the services i normally use to make game sound effects (usually by rustling paper or jingling keys in my mic and adding filters) are either dead or unusable, prompting me to spend the past 3 days coding my own tiny but functional DAW

So, I’ve been playing the classic version of minecraft Mojang is hosting for their 10th anniversary at classic.minecraft.net
within 10 minutes, I found an infinite height exploit
and got stuck at the top of the map
…yup
Maybe minecraft Steve and Alex are exceptions and weirdos to villagers like. maybe villagers ARE the true average “normal” of the world of Minecraft, and the actions us as players do are weird and eccentric, even “neurotic” to them.
Maybe villagers and other creatures can’t ACTUALLY see Endermen at all, to the point of probability ensuring they rarely directly face towards them?
What if Endermen are only visible because, we, players - beings higher and above the base reality of minecraft are looking at minecraft … and that’s what They sense and hate… being seen by things from Beyond?
And - just as a thought experiment - what if things like shadow people that people see due to sleep paralysis, PCP, DXM, etc IRL… are approximations or impressions of real things, things that are fundamentally outside our normal viewing perspective, but to a higher dimensional viewer, are as clear as crystal?
I like this! I imagine villagers and some mobs cant even hear the endermen, they can only see the purple particles, and think the creature is just a swarm of tiny creatures that love to try to take blocks (like faries or something). They don’t become aggressive with other mobs because they never can truly look at them. But when the player makes that direct eye contact, the endermen are like “uh oh, this one can see us” and apparently thats not a good thing.
EXACTLY this … ALSO priests can trade for enderpearls which implies SOMEWHERE along the line at least some of their ancestors could see and slay them and they’ve been passed down like holy relics,,, like freakin dinosaur skulls or something.
I love mineblr because you get amazing posts like this and then this monstrosity immediately after:
U kno what???? Honestly?? All jokes side about the Duolingo owl, Duolingo is one of the only language education services I know of that doesn’t charge for the full course and I really think we don’t appreciate that enough in a world where knowledge is severely (and increasing) restricted based on income. I just went through the app store and downloaded every language app I can find, and the only two that didn’t charge hefty subscription fees to access all the lessons were duolingo and memrise. Support free education.
There is a reason for that. The founder is Guatemalan and values accessible education in large part because of the difficulty accessing it in his home country.
love this
I need my tuition paid off to graduate. I’m working on my senior thesis animation right now (gif related). I’m in the last semester.
I can’t take out a loan because those require proof of income, so I’m paying off my tuition with my credit card soon, and then I need help paying it off in the long run. I have about 1.5k USD left to pay the school. That’s it. Then I’m done. I’m trying to find a job, but it’s hard due to my multiple disabilities.
Literally anything helps. My father is too poor to help me and my mom is abusive. I’m already skimping on food because rent and insurance is killing me and I want to be sure I can feed and take care of my pets.
I want to be able to complete college because my father couldn’t. Please help a trans person of color achieve their dream! Reblogs can go a long way.
Please god I am so close and I’m about to be hit with the fucking 250$ insurance bill
