Hey I have something important to share:
I have made the decision to filter out any vent tags for the sake of my own mental health.
I’d like to make it extremely clear that IT IS PERFECTLY OKAY TO VENT ON YOUR OWN BLOG!!! Venting can be a good way to let things off your chest and can actually help people!! It isn’t wrong to vent about your thoughts if you feel need. Your feelings are valid and you have every right to express them. You shouldn’t feel bad about venting. Please don’t stop yourself from venting if it really helps you. <3
And please if you have vented to me in the past DONT FEEL BAD ABOUT IT!! You didn’t know and you had no way of knowing. I’ve gotten over those times and now that I look back I am genuinely so glad you had someone to talk to. I don’t regret listening, and I was never upset with anyone and I’m certainly not upset now. Your feelings are valid, and you shouldn’t feel bad about it. Please don’t feel guilty, it was never your fault. Again, I’m genuinely very happy you had someone to talk to.
It’s just that I get very anxious about certain touchy subjects and what ends up happening is that it occupies my mind for a long while. I often end up worrying about them so much that I can start spiraling and it negativity impacts my mental, and even sometimes physical, health.
I wish I was stronger. I wish I could help more. But everything becomes too much for me. And after a genuine talk with my mother about it, we both agree that it would be for the best if I avoid those things.
I feel bad about doing this. I care about my mutuals and really anyone going through hard times. I want to listen and I wish I could be stronger for them. I thought that I could just “suck it up” and put on a brave face. And I did for a while. I thought that if I couldn’t handle being there for my friends it would just make me a selfish jerk. But now I realize I’m not the right person to do this.
Please please please don’t take this the wrong way and think that I don’t care. I do care. I care more than anything, and I genuinely hope that things get better. I want to be there for you. I’ve tried but know there’s only so much I can do. I’m with you, and I support you. I do love you and you’re all my friends. Im so sorry about everything. I wish I could be stronger. But I need to take care of myself.
I’ll always be here to try and make you smile. If you need to forget about something or you’re just really stressed and need to calm down, you’re always free to talk to me. We can find something fun to do together or we can just have a normal chat to get your mind off things. If you think that would help you, please don’t be afraid to reach out to me about that. But if you’re looking to dive into deeper waters, then I suggest talking to another trusted individual.
I guess I could’ve just blocked the tags and not have to have made a huge post about it, but I felt like you deserved some kind of explanation. It felt wrong to just leave you unaware about this. I don’t want anyone thinking I don’t care. That couldn’t be further from the truth. I care so much more than you think.
I hope and pray that you all have the right support systems that can help you through hard times. Remember that there are hotlines you can call if your mind ever goes to a darker place. I love you all and I’m here with you. Please know that I care about you and your feelings are valid to me. /gen
.
Now im unsure of myself. Does this make me a bad friend? Is what I’m doing selfish? Should I rethink about this decision? I wish I was stronger. I’m so sorry. I’m sorry about everything. /gen

Hey! So since I had these on hand and since the link for the original S1 world download is now broken, I went ahead and uploaded these to archive.org. They're available in .zip format and a tutorial for adding a world file to your saves folder in Java Edition can be found here. (This does not work for Bedrock, unfortunately.)

so me and @clownnoise have been spitballing some concepts re: tetocu, but mostly the kids introduced. a lot of it involved having them show a more varied/deeper look at them to emphasize the original book’s themes of kids vs. the school system and it lowkey snowballed into what’s basically an indulgent dt17-esque reboot (in terms of how much it keeps faithful/what it changes with the source material), but tetocu.
anyway, here’s a lineup and a few out-of-context doodles of potential interactions/conflicts/’episodes’. there’s more info on the characters under the read more
general points
one of the main points of contention was the kids. the ensemble cast was honestly a good call for a tv series, but the kids are just surface-level tropes, if they even have a particular angle to them in the first place. as cute as the MISFARTS concept was, it was difficult to buy into it considering how little development there were for the introduced kids
the kids
gooch (aka steve aka suketsugu) is practically a bit of a rewrite situation from his canon counterpart. he’s moved from japan to the US, and frequently around the country as a result of his family needing to move with the museum pieces they’re taking care of. during this time, he’s had to pick up english, and as a result he’s learned to be a bit of a fast-talker to make sure conversations don’t derail from him. him, stanley, and bo are a trio in this one
stanley’s a pretty chill guy for the most part and ridiculously strong as a result of hauling produce on the family farm. a few years ago, he transferred from a different, much rougher school thanks to his new stepdad
bo is mostly the same, save from elaboration re: his background. bullshark had this idea where he lived in a woodsy area all his life and was immediately made the subject of school rumor after bringing a whittling knife. the heart of the trio
dressy is another rewrite situation where her hippie gimmick was angled more towards Animal Enjoyer, which was then further angled towards That One [Insert Animal Here] Kid. as a result of her independent nature, she doesn’t get along with the rest of the kids initially since she has a similar near-sightedness to the boys re: their pranks, but with her LARP shennanigans, sometimes picking fights
erica is a little nerfed in the sense that she isn’t this ultra perfect girl anymore. she leans more into the type of child forced to grow up too fast to help with their parents-- in the dm’s she helped around the house by taking care of her siblings. in reality, she’d love to do kids’ stuff like LARP as her self-insert
jessica (and by extension the sophies’) gimmick was angled more towards being a pageant queen. she’s still plenty vain as her canon self, but she can pinpoint anyone’s emotional vulnerabilities after being in the pageant circuit for so long. she also hides her own vulnerabilities regarding her dad who had left in a divorce a few years ago
sophie one is still her right hand/a bit more favored with jessica, but with the justification that she and jessica had prior history together as a result of her mom being part of jessica’s pageant crew-- so she actually knows quite a lot about the world of fashion, sewing, hairdressing, etc. there’s also the concept of her having an older sibling who was once in the pageant circuit, leaving her alone while her mom and sister were off backstage
other sophie mostly just tags along with jessica and sophie 1 of her own volition, but the other kids don’t get it (she has a baby crush on jessica). mostly just a daydreamer and bookish
