Hi folks. I am a bit more tired today because I believe that I may just be under the weather, and if I am that means that I am sick for the first time in two years, but I am not sure. I might just be tired. That’s true, I haven’t even had a cold since February 2024. God, I can’t believe that it’s 2026 already, but here we are going into 2027. HAHAHA! Well, since I am more tired today I guess my thoughts should be expected to be more dispersed and I am also later than what I was the other day. Or at least I believe I am later than I was the other day. But who cares. I’m back playing my modified Minecraft server and I kinda like it I must admit, because vanilla Minecraft sucks in comparison to modded Minecraft. I don’t remember when I was able to modify stuff in Minecraft for the first time, but I’ve never looked back to vanilla Minecraft since then. Like, I believe that it was 2012 or 2013 when I enjoyed playing vanilla Minecraft the last time; vanilla Minecraft is just not as fun in my view. I remember that it was like 2013 or 2014 when I started playing FTB which was funny. Anyways, here I am referring to stuff that most people don’t even know what it is, but FTB was a modpack, I believe that it’s still around, and I played FTB because a YouTuber known as BdoubleO used to play FTB. I really enjoyed FTB Monster, which was released back in 1.6.4. I believe. Yes, 1.6.4. used to be the best modded version. I like modern Minecraft, but I can’t stand playing vanilla Minecraft, it’s just too boring and I’m not interested. Well, I enjoy creative mod though, which is funny, but with FTB (Feed the Beast) you were able to build all sorts of cool machines, none of which you could or can do in vanilla Minecraft, but it’s true that vanilla Minecraft is great for creative mod. I do have a creative spirit and it can be very satisfying building stuff sometimes and usually mods aren’t required for that. But let’s keep it real: what the heck am I supposed to do in vanilla survival? Take down the dragon? Look, I also tend to die all the time anyways in Minecraft. I don’t want to trash vanilla Minecraft, but it is not that great when you’ve played modded Minecraft. Think of vanilla Minecraft like this: it’s almost as if you’ve been castrated or it’s really just very anticlimactic. I also don’t enjoy survival Minecraft in singleplayer because it feels too lonely. Now that I have a server I can play with my friends and the world just feels more alive, which I enjoy a lot. Anyways, in my newly constructed basement I have built a Nether portal, my second Nether portal but Nether in this modpack is a little bit difficult because there are all sorts of weird and “wonderful” creatures there that don’t exist in vanilla Minecraft and they all want to kill you. Anyways, I enjoy this version of Minecraft better. I also really like NEI or JEI. Back when I played FTB in 2013 it was called NEI, Not Enough Items, but today it’s called JEI, Just Enough Items. NEI and JEI are mods that just make it easier to see what you should do to construct something. I really dislike Microsoft’s bedrock version of Minecraft and I don’t like that the original Minecraft is called the “Java version”, but that’s a small thing I suppose. Because Bedrock Minecraft is so available, there are more people playing that version, but talk about kids. Like, I know that Minecraft is a kids game if you will, but there are just too many kids playing Bedrock Minecraft, and I’ve got no interest in interacting with them, this is if you’re playing online. Btw, talk also about being castrated if you play Minecraft bedrock version because that version doesn't allow you to do most things you can do with the real version, but these things happen when big corporations take over. Look, you may say that Microsoft has been nice to Minecraft, but the whole “family friendly” nonsense is infuriating. I am a little bit tired of kids everywhere. I don’t hate kids, and it’s not even the kids that annoy me; really I hate their parents. Like I am indifferent towards kids, but their parents are overbearing in their constant moral panic about this and that and this and that and everyone has to be affected negatively because they can’t say no to their kids. I suppose that’s why I like to play some other games more where there are no kids around such as HOI4, and that’s because HOI4 is much more complicated that Minecraft and probably too complicated for kids. See, instead of banning everything and imposing age limits, just make certain games so complicated that kids don’t want to play them. HOI4 isn’t that complicated but because of all the buttons and decisions you have to make it becomes overwhelming at first and if you don’t have a strong sense of history it becomes even more hard, but you’ll also gain a certain sense for history as well when you play HOI4, so that part goes both ways. So, just make the video game too hard for a kid, and that’s not going to be a problem. The thing about kids is this: most kids aren’t that sensitive and they don’t actually learn to become evil by playing video games or being exposed to “immoral stuff”. Kids for the most part actually raise each other. Like, yes being a good parent is important, but the importance of “raising your kids right” is actually kinda overstated. If your kid grows up to become a serial killer, then that’s probably not because you raised him, or I guess her, wrong. I guess too that it’s easy for me to say/write these things since I don’t have my own kids, but sill, it’s annoying in my view. I have been very slow with writing this blog post today so I think I am going to run out of time before I hit 6000 characters. No, I’ll hit 6000 characters soon, but still I am certainly behind here and that’s annoying and I am having some pain in my fingers at the moment. I should clip my nails as well but that’s for another hour because I need to close out this post. HAHAHA! I haven’t hit that limit that you can’t see I don’t believe, especially not now when they’ve forcibly changed the meaning of this webpage. Anyways, the other day I wrote a post on Ethereal Insights that took way too long to write and guess why? Because of my Ritalin. You see, I’ve noticed that I haven’t actually written my Ethereal Insights posts faster, I’ve just spent more time writing them which wasn’t really the whole point of making myself high on ADHD. Ah, I am closing in on 6000 characters here and I am maybe around 5600 characters at the moment. Let me check… Well, I was wrong by about 900 characters, as I am closing in on 6600 characters at the moment and 7000 characters, but I only have less than 5 minutes to go so I am going to have to start to write faster if I’m going to get past 7000 characters because I will stop the second that alarm goes off. That would be fun because it would be funny to just stop in the middle of a sentence. HAHAHAHAHA! Anyways, I am soon finished with René Guénon’s book “Spiritual Authority & Temporal Power”, because I’ve decided to only read one chapter a day. Really, that book was so short that I could’ve read it in a couple of hours, but I like to read one chapter, think about it a little and then come back the next day to read the next chapter. Ok, I’m past 7000 characters, so I made it. I’m definitely out. Signing out.
