Honestly, Microsoft buying Minecraft, erasing N/tch, and giving full control to Mojang? Best timeline. N*tch did barely anything for this game other than snag some coding from the internet and make a few blocks and mobs. He took the money and ran. A coward’s move.

Thank you to the entire Mojang team. Thank you Jeb for taking on full control in 2011 and building the game as we know it. For all the beautiful developers working alongside Jeb: Dinnerbone, Searge, Maria, tommo, Grum, Aron, Mans, ProfMobius, LadyAgnes, Shoghi, Daniel, Tomas, Jason, fry, Bok, rockenroll4life, Cory, Slicedlime, peterix. For C148 and the iconic minecraft sounds and for the lead sound designer Samuel. Big love to Jasper and his beautiful textures. 

(twitter/names list come from Minecraft’s gamepedia on who’s involved in Minecraft, links above go to the twitter pages of the devs.).

yeah it’s fun to joke about Hatsune Miku and all that but let’s not forget these people

imagine being so awful that Microsoft is a better choice than you

So. 10th grade English class. We all come in one morning to find a balloon and a perfectly sharpened pencil on each of our desks. No instructions, no explanation, which is strange, because our teacher is meticulous about that sort of thing. A couple of people try to ask her and she says we’ll get to it. She takes role and then announces that she needs to go to the copy room and she’ll be back in a couple of minutes

Kinda unorthodox, but no one is complaining because this is advanced English and the teacher usually goes kinda hard. So, y’know. Brief respite. We all sit and chat; one of the boys teasingly steals a girl’s balloon, but gives it back to her easily enough; it’s quiet and kind of a nice break. Then the teacher comes back, stops in the doorway, and just stares at us

After a long moment, she says, confused, “You didn’t pop the balloons.”

To which one of the guys about two rows over exclaims, “We’re allowed to pop them?” and immediately turns around and stabs his friend’s balloon with the pencil

There is a vicious revenge balloon-stabbing, and a few more people pop seatmates’ balloons or their own, and the whole time the teacher is just shaking her head. “I can’t believe you didn’t pop your balloons.”

Apparently we were starting Lord of the Flies that day and she wanted to demonstrate the basic concept of kids turning on each other when there are no authority figures present and it was basically my favorite failed social experiment ever

Back in my 10th grade we did a similar things around Lord of the Flies, where we had a test scheduled for that day, and when we walked in, the teacher took role by looking through the window of the door and never entered the classroom. On the board were three tasks written and the teacher had brought in donuts. At first we all sat around and waited for the teacher to come in, but eventually we just started tackling the list of tasks. Task 1- the test. Everybody took it silently, no one cheated, everyone turned it in and we went on to Task Two: tidy up the room. So we did, we split into a couple groups and each one cleaned an area of the room. Task Three: Hand out the donuts. There were 12 donuts, and 30 of us. So we split the donuts into thirds, each took a third, and left the extras for the teacher. After this, the teacher came in absolutely FUMING. She was so upset we had followed all the rules and completed the tasks. Apparently she had been texting kids telling them to start some chaos but they all ignored it because they were too nice. She tried to dock our grades for not going absolutely wild because it meant her class didn’t get the point across

this makes me so happy and proud and hopeful.

Lord of the Flies is a book that has nothing to say about children per se. It is, however, very enlightening on the topic of boys raised in an entitled single-sex school system with a feudal/militaristic fetish.

Lord of the Flies also has less to do with how actual humans behave and more to do with how William Golding felt about the book The Coral Island, in which a group of school boys are stranded on an island, have a wonderful time, prevent a war between two tribes of native islanders, and then get rescued. Golding thought this was bullshit and wrote the subversive response, Lord of the Flies to show what he thought would really happen if a bunch of boarding school boys were really stranded on an island. It’s not a realistic portrayal; it’s one man’s clapback to a previously published children’s lit book.

No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone
No more calling like a crow for a boy, for a body in the garden
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world

I’d like the Lopunny line a lot more if Gamefreak ever played up the fact that Buneary is the one Pokemon that fucking hates your guts from day one

Apparently this isn’t quite accurate. Buneary is not the only pokemon with that distinction. However, it is the only non-legendary on the list. 

Buneary hates you with the strength of imprisoned gods

losers out there staying dead. just respawn, idiot. lmao

To be fair, some people may just be experiencing horrible lag during respawn. It took one person 3 days to respawn 2019 years ago
