minecraft is the perfect video game, actually

when I say that I don't mean it doesnt have its flaws, because it does - but it feels to me like the platonic ideal of a video game.

there are monsters to fight, but they're completely optional. the game is fully customizable. theres a suggested path, but nothing forces you to do it. it's just you and an empty world and absolutely anything you could want to do; it's the truest form of sandbox. even the world itself could be anything you want it to be

its kid friendly but not for kids only; it includes challenges that young players can overcome without getting too horribly frustrated and it encourages creativity (which means it will get support from children's guardians because it mostly keeps away from violence). but importantly, it's not sanitized - the nether is a hell dimension, one wrong move in the end could cost you everything, the terrifying warden - this fulfills children's desires to be scared in a safe environment! its exciting!

while this can sometimes bite mojang in the ass, I love that they try and include the community in the creative process, showing progress and ideas and asking for feedback and help with finding bugs. when minecraft is finally considered "complete", if that ever happens, it will feel like such a time capsule of the hard work of the devs and the desires of the player base, the special little thing that we made together

speaking of kids, I love that during Mojang's live events, it feels like they treat all players equally: adults and their questions & ideas feel just as included as kids and their questions & ideas. they speak to everyone at once, in ways that are easy for kids to listen to and be engaged with (shoutout to lydia) but that dont feel alienating to adults like myself. that's a pretty hard line to walk and I feel like they do it really well!

minecraft encourages players to be kind, to be constructive, to look at the world around them and think "what can this become?" minecraft wants players to make art, to become artists; it's a tool, it's an engine, it's a platform, it's a canvas. it's cozy. it's frighteningly lonely. it's a world that evolves seemingly on its own. it's something really beautiful

Men be like, "oh, you like grunge? Name three Nirvana songs!" without considering the fact that grunge was not a single popular band at one moment in time, but the roots of a movement that resonates so strongly with us because the aesthetic alone was so contrary to consumerism and the trends of fast fashion that emerged in the 80s and are still prevalent today. It took the anti-establishment of punk and stripped it down to its roots. That isn't even touching on how the introspection allowed the music to not just criticize what was happening around them, but evaluate what that can do to the individual. Grunge didn't go away either, it grew up in different directions with the former participants. Like how the music of Pearl Jam, another major contributor to the movement, continues to make music that is softer and more reflective of how anger and sadness manifests when you don't have your youth to fuel your rage. Or how former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl has been very open about his advocacy for LGBT rights since the 90s and has used his influence in the industry to be active in politics and social justice, now with the influence that his amazing musical talents have given him as opposed to just making music about how angry he was about the world. There are plenty of punk bands that maintain the spirit of grunge that still perform today, the kind that have a couple hundred followers on Instagram and have never been played on the radio because they are, in essence, underground and unheard, and supporting their art does a lot more to support real grunge than naming three songs of a band so wildly famous that their merchandise is still in circulation today... Being produced... But you want to gatekeep a girl being responsible by wearing a hand-me-down Nirvana shirt her dad bought in 1998 without listening to their music because somehow that's doing grunge wrong...

Jacob and Julia asked for fanart and fanfiction of these two and I don't draw so here's my first (of hopefully many) Sara Pena and Hunter Richardson fics. It's a meet-cute.

Two Losers At A Party

Sara wasn't stupid. Okay, well, she was kind of stupid, but she certainly wasn't blind. She had seen the cute girl staring at her and filming.

After a few minutes of dancing for her new personal filmographies, she decided to approach the girl and commence flirting. Or hustling. One of the two.

"Hey. You should tag me in that. Tag my business page. SaraPenaPartyForHire. All one word. The S and the P and the other P and the F and the H are capitalized. That's Sara without an H, too. Did you get all that?"

"Uh. Yes. I'll add that to my post." Hunter was already getting comments about clearly filming without permission, but this felt like permission.

"I'm Sara Pena, by the way. Of SaraPenaPartyForHire."

"Hunter. Hunter Richardson. Of… Nothing. What exactly do you do at SaraPenaPartyForHire?"

"Well, it's a freelance kind of thing. I get paid to come to parties and throw down my sick dance moves so that other people feel more comfortable doing the same themselves."

"Sounds lucrative," Hunter said.

"It's not," Sara Pena said with a laugh, "but I enjoy it."

"You must go to a lot of parties, then."

"Yep! Maybe I'll see you at the next one?" Sara batted her eyelashes.

"I mainly go to funerals, actually. Maybe I'll see you at the next one?"

Sara laughed, "You must be a lot of fun at funerals."

Hunter laughed then too, a genuine laugh. The first time she'd laughed all evening.

"Yeah, Sara, I put the fun in funerals."

"I've never worked a funeral before but I'd be willing to give it a go."

"I'll be sure to let my clients know about your business."

"Your clients?" Sara leaned in then, her intense eyes wide, "Do you work for ghosts?"

"Huh. I guess I kind of do. I'm a funeral director."

Hunter leaned in conspiratorially, "You'll never guess where I got this dress."

Sara's eyes sparkled like freshly lit candles, "Where?"

"Right off a dead person."

Sara gasped in delight, "It looks so good on you!"

"Thank you! I thought so too. Sometimes the families of the deceased don't get it but the corpses don't need clothes. I, on the other hand, do. Anything to save money, right?"

"Tell me about it. My life isn't one big party. I have bills to pay, too."

"You get it. You just gotta do what you've gotta do."

"Hey, Sara, get back on the dance floor! We didn't pay you to stand around!" Some guy snapped.

Without changing her morose expression Hunter whipped around and doused the guy with her drink.

"Don't talk to her like that!" Hunter snapped.

"Hey! No one invited you! Get out of here! Both of you!"

Sara grabbed Hunter's hand and they fled, both of them unable to keep from laughing when they got past the front door.

Hunter sobered up the fastest. "I'm sorry I got you kicked out of the party."

"That's okay, they already paid me. And if they leave a bad review on my page I'll just delete it."

"Would you like to help me vandalize their house?" Hunter asked, offering Sara a marker. Sara hadn't let go of her hand yet.

"How about we just go for a walk?" Sara suggested. "I would really, really like to get to know you better, Hunter Richardson."

"And I, you, Sara without an H."

"Well," Sara giggled, clumsily twirling Hunter, "I have one now."

Hunter blushed almost imperceptibly and put away her markers. The only vandalism that would be committed that night was the marks Sara and Hunter were leaving on each other's hearts.

Chocolate guy did it again
