So I’ve finally caught up on the Animation Versus Minecraft series and I am absolutely dead at the fact that when King gave them the staff, they proceeded to use it in the most stupid ways possible. Dude gave them a literal weapon of ultimate power and they like.
Cuddle it in their sleep.
Use it for fancy orchestras.
Make a pogo stick out of it
This is the reaction of someone who realized they literally created a world ending weapon then gave it to a group of very, very stupid kids. I’m dying. Please I cannot express how absolutely hilarious this is to me. The weapon that King used to literally destroy the entirety of Minecraft is now being used by the dumbest squad of teenagers who are using it for teenage things. He doesn’t even know about the lucky block thing.
Bro literally went on an extended villain arc, disgraced his dead son’s memory, and hurt/took advantage of/abused countless innocents and he has just realized the biggest mistake he ever made was giving his weapon to the people who beat him. Not because they are worse than him but because they are royally, painfully, AGONIZINGLY stupid. World ending power meets world denying stupidity
I love these stupid stick figures so much
So I want to laugh at Musk picking fights with other billionaires, because it is, objectively speaking, extremely funny
Especially when you consider that his argument essentially boils down to the idea that other companies deciding which platforms they want their brand associated with is somehow infringing on his ability to participate in the "open market place." Suggesting that the only "fair" way to support a "competitive" market is to FORCE advertisers to advertise on his platform even if they don't agree with his practices.
However I also feel compelled to point out that he is possibly one of the most dangerous men on earth right now, and he literally must be stopped. The kind of precedent he is trying to set here would be disastrous for all of us.
He's essentially trying to make boycotts illegal at any level. If he can do it to the giants, nothing will stop him from doing it to us, which we already know has been their plan all along.
They want to make any form of dissent illegal. Now is the time to dissent with all your might.
I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard

The older I get, and the more on fire the world seems to be the more I feel comforted and SEEN by Sir Terry Pratchett and Discworld.
Not because all the books are inherently comfortable so much as because they feel like someone taking you by the hand and saying; “I know. I’m just as angry about this bullshit. But we can hold hands. But the sun still rises. But hope is still important. Hope wears steel toed boots and smiles with pink and bloody teeth and will make you laugh and will make you cry. It’s not okay. But we’re in the shit together, and some day it’s gonna be less shit.”
This got away from me.
What I’m saying is, I’ve got a shovel.
Well I make some research about Maffet, and figured out that Maffet is character of problematic author. After that I just don't wanna use Maffet in my AU(or whatever it is), but in fact I'd need to remake the whole plot because spiders are huge part in it.
So I went like "but hey, what if I found replacement for Maffet",
and create entire spider society.
I really hope that I would be able to reveal all lore spiders, but most likely I won't. After all, this is story about child with shitty luck, not about spiders of monsterkind
