Mceraki - Meraki

based on a Real Conversation i had

dialogue under cut in case you can't read my terrible rushed handwriting

Panel #1 Knife: So is tea vegan broth, or is broth meat tea? Taco: WHAT KIND OF CONVERSATION STARTER IS THAT?! Microphone: Both of those names sound TERRIBLE.

Panel #2 Taco: I mean, broth isn't tea because tea is made with plants. And I'm pretty sure broth needs to be cooked in stock.

Panel #3: Microphone: But the meat's just soaked in hot water, that's how broth is made, right? It's tea in the sense that it's been cooked in hot water.

Panel #4: Taco: That's just boiling. The definition of tea specifically is boiled plant, not boiled meat. By that logic, you could say hard-boiled eggs or plain boiled water are considered 'tea' as well. Microphone: I mean like technically that's Egg Tea? Taco: NO.

Panel #5: Knife: Counter Argument: If the thing boils AND affects the water, it's tea. Taco: But with THAT logic, you could say something like PASTA WATER is tea!

Panel #6: Microphone: Pasta water IS tea. Taco: It is NOT a fucking tea! Knife: It's a soup.

Panel #7 Microphone: Well I guess soup is just tea with extra ingredients... Taco: Soup usually has meat or vegetables though.

Panel #8 Microphone: But you can add stuff like sugar and honey and cream into tea! Knife: Do YOU add sweet stuff into your soup? Microphone (in the background): SUGAR IN SOUP IS NORMAL! Taco (in the background): I beg to differ.

Panel #9 Pickle: Wait so is hotdog water tea or- Knife, Taco, & Microphone (with varying expressions): NO

my fav XB v. Mumbo case bits

"Objection!" "On what basis?" "On the objection basis!" "Sustained."

"I will object, this outfit reminds me of Angus Young and I like that." "QUIET, FORMER CONVICT OF THE COURT!"

"This maaaaaannnnn... has no dexterity. I don't even know how he made it to this court."

"I'm thinking of pulling a curveball. We're installing....... a jury."

"As co-owner of-" [LOUD YAWN] "Don't listen to him. Don't listen to him. You're doing great 😊🥰😍"

"I'm so confused, I don't understand the law."

"OBJECTION!!! He was mean :("

"Yeah, back in your jail cell. I mean your chair >:)"

"......Am I able to represent myself?"

"Maybe he's more dexteritous than we thought."

"Here in AMERICA.... Mr Beans......"

"ITS CALLED MINECRAFT WE'RE ALL MINERS YOU FOOL"

"Scar, if I was to single out Cub, do you think that would go well for me?" "........I CALL CUB TO THE STAND!!!"

[All court proceedings stop for Bdubs to do a magic trick]

"I have a bit of tinnitus, so if we could get a doctor working on that...."

"Can't prosecute success 😏"

"He literally owns a mine, so maybe mention that, Scar?" "....He has a character that mimes things??" "NO-"

"That's not how sound works!" "OBJECTION!" "I'm objecting on physics!"

"Please step forward onto the punishment carpet." [PIT OPENS]

"As I was saying... uhm... uhgggghh, what was I saying before they all died and stuff..."

"Obviously I'm super successful regardless of the noise and everyone else being poor is just a skill issue. Right, cooooollllll, I think that was it."

"Do you have your law license?" "I do not, your honor." "Okay, then what are you talking for????"

"If this case is lost from our side..... all hope is lost.... because it's lost anyways."

"Here's my verdict... and my punishment, btw......" "Ohh well. Punishment probably implies what the verdict may well be."

[LOUD GIDDY GIGGLES] "Are you celebrating???? Don't celebrate!" "Oh, no sir, I was just crying."

"Mumbo, I sentence you to be the server's butler for two weeks. In hopes that you will learn manners."

"Docm77, you will be sentenced to TWENY FOUR HOURS AGAIN!!!! IN THE SKYBLOCK"

Silly suitcase thinking I would let her drink my soup

ALL THIS VIOLENCE MAKES A STATEMENT!

“— so you don’t want me to die? — always has been.”

fanfic writing culture isn’t “oh dang! I wanted to write about this prompt with this character but someone else already wrote it, so now I can’t”.

fanfic writing culture is always “two cakes is better than one. the more the merrier. there can ever be enough fics of this character with this prompt!”

A lot of people on Tik Tok have migrated over to the Chinese app RedNote, and the Chinese users are so fucking funny about it. I saw one comment that was like "Welcome, I was the Chinese citizen assigned to spy on your data, I missed you"

Knife case but they're kinda complicated like

I feel like they would be two people in love, Suitcase being aro and Knife being ace, and their love doesn't require physical affection they literally just enjoy each other's company and like to yap and show each other pretty stuff. They would gift each other cool rocks and flowers to show that they still love the other very much

Edit: like. They love each other on a level above and beyond. It's not romantic, but not fully platonic either. I've experienced it and I can't describe it otherwise. They call each other platonic partners but they're actually very gay but they're also not gay at the same time they just care about each other very much. They so grew in love throughout the show I can't cries sobs explodes

siklo ng basalyo / cycle of vassals

For Filipino class last week, I made a poem inspired by Inanimate Insanity’s finale! (the text on the right is a DIRECT TRANSLATION so they’re not accurate word-by-word)

You can see the little references I put in the poem, some are direct lines from II17 and II18!

A greeting for negligent penpals and procrastinating authors. Postcard from my collection, 1911.
