This is a post about Minecraft Speedrunning (MCSR). Within MCSR, the biggest/most popular/most respected category is Any% RSG, which is when you load up a random world (seed), and beat the game (kill the dragon and enter the end fountain to roll the credits) as quickly as possible. And you can't use glitches.
Now come back in time with me. The date is June 3rd, 2025. The current world record holder is drip120, with a time of 7:01 (7 minutes, 1 second), which was set on January 3rd, 2024. That makes it the longest standing Any% RSG world record.
Enter Skycrab (Pinne). Skycrab has been playing RSG for a very long time at this point, and has a reputation as an incredibly dedicated RSG player, even when other top speedrunners have moved on to playing other things. Today, June 3rd, Skycrab uploads what many could consider the most devastating video in MCSR history.
6:17 Choke. Do yourself a favor and watch this video (it's pretty short) then come back and we can process what just happened.
After successfully completing the zero-cycle (that thing where went up the obsidian tower and exploded the dragon), Skycrab goes down to the fountain where the portal is about to appear. He can see the timer, and knows that he is about to cut the current world record time by 44 seconds. This is a *huge* timecut, the likes of which haven't been seen since 2021 during the original golden years of MCSR. He takes his hands off his keyboard, in awe. After years of grinding, after 206 days of streams, he has world record.
And then he dies.
When entering the end, he accidentally looked at an enderman for a fraction of a second, angering it. The enderman kills him, and a potentially category ending world record is lost.
The entire community grieves this loss. We've seen things like it happen before, but this is devastating in a special kind of way. The run was over. There was no more gameplay that was supposed to happen. To quote Skycrab himself, "Can't blame [it] on luck this time."
He takes a few days break, and on June 6th, he resumes the grind.
Five days later. June 11th, 2025.
Reports appear of another runner, Lowkey, having just broken the world record, but he wasn't live while it happened, and the video isn't out yet. We wait.
Sure enough, a few hours later, the video drops. Lowkey now holds the WR with a time of 6:50, making it officially the first any% RSG run to break the 7 minute barrier. After a year and five months, we finally have a new world record holder. But there feels something hollow about it, so soon after we all saw the extent of what could be possible. So we keep waiting.
In a few months time, MCSR will explode in popularity in a way no one could see coming. The community will grow exponentially, thanks to the influence of Midoffs and Ludwig. Although Lowkey has the official WR, the entire community holds Skycrab in a place of deep honor, with some even considering him the non-official WR holder.
Skycrab continues to play RSG almost every day, each stream watching the counter tick higher. 250. 300. He has a channel reward that viewers can redeem to make him play a game of Ranked (which is MCSR but 1v1 competitive). Despite only playing a total of 77 matches during Season 9, while the majority of top runners having played 900+, Skycrab manages to qualify for Season 9 playoffs, and walks away with 3rd place. Not long afterwards, he wins both the Couriway x EG Free4All and the first ever MCSR Ranked LAN event.
July 22nd, 2026: There comes a time every year, where in a period of about a month, everything happens at once. MCSR has just seen a new Ranked WR and a new No Reset WR. Several new top times have been completed, but Lowkey's 6:50 still stands at the top. Skycrab sits in a comfortable 9th place, with a time of 7:16. And then, on a pace that is hardly even in his top 20 best, he gets a new pb of 7:11, and posts the following on twitter.
[Image ID: Tweet from Skycrab, July 22. "NEW RSG PB 7:11. WR SOON?" A screenshot of the minecraft end credits and the time, 7:22 RTA, 7:11 IGT. /End ID]
July 27th, 2026. Around 14:00 UTC. Skycrab has been live for an hour, playing RSG as usual. His stream title is "RSG for something good idk day 345"
When he enters the nether, he spawns in directly on a housing bastion. That is a very good type of bastion for speedruns, as they're very consistent sources of gold blocks (and gold blocks are necessary for getting all the materials you'll need for the run, particularly obsidian and ender pearls.) In a normal run, speedrunners will hope to have 20+ ender pearls, so that they can maneuver around without worrying about having enough to fill in all 12 portal frames in the stronghold.
Skycrab gets 15.
This is followed up with sub-optimal blaze rod drops, (the other crucial ingredient for entering the end.) At this point, he'll later say, he basically given up hope that the run would be anything spectacular. He has to use a few pearls in traversing the nether, and doesn't leave with enough blaze rods to fill all 12 portal frames. This is a pretty big gamble. In order to enter the end, he would need 2 frames to be pre-filled, which is only a 23.01% chance. He also doesn't have much food, and, as previously mentioned, not many pearls.
He enters the stronghold at 5 minutes, 40 seconds. This stronghold looks nothing like normal, due to all sorts of weird cave generation. He's lost lots of good times to being unable to navigate the maze-like structure, and these almost seems like it will be one of them. He finds a chest with extra bread in it, and then he sees the portal room, partially exposed by aforementioned weird cave generation. He digs in, and sure enough. Two frames are filled.
Skycrab enters the End dimension at 5 minutes, 51 seconds. The zero cycle he has to hit is Back 92 (don't worry about what that means). The same as his 6:17 choke. He has to use his two remaining pearls to get there, and takes significant damage doing so. If not for the chest with bread, he couldn't have gone for it. He builds high, maybe higher than necessary, to y99, and successfully hits the zero cycle.
Live chat explodes with excitement, but restrained still. 6:17 taught all of us that killing the dragon doesn't mean the run is over. He descends from the obsidian pillar in a boat, leaping out just before it strikes the ground. Had he stayed in it, there's a real chance he could have died, and this whole thing would repeat. He jumps into the fountain and waits.
The credits roll.
The timer stops.
6 minutes, 39 seconds.
We have a new world record holder.

For three years, Skycrab has constantly demonstrated himself as one of the best Minecraft Speedrunners in the world, and now he finally has the title to prove it. After the most crushing failure the community has ever seen, he bounced back and kept trying. 345 days of streaming. Hundreds of thousands of worlds generated and discarded. Countless runs lost due to bad luck or small mistakes.
I got to meet Skycrab IRL a few months ago, and he is genuinely such a sweet and wonderful person to be around. The thing on everybody's lips, in the comments, in the chat, in the reaction videos, is the same thing I echo now: Nobody deserves this more.
I don't know how long this record will stand. It's absolutely not unbeatable, as even this run has quite a few small mistakes and timelosses. Maybe it will only stand for a few days, or maybe it will be at the top of the leaderboard for years. What I do know is that Skycrab has finally had his name recorded, permanently, in the books of MCSR history.
Bodily autonomy (like abortion, anti draft, etc) -> âThe government shouldnât be able to force anything on my body I donât want.â
Anti surveillance -> âI donât trust big government/big tech (big brother if youâre feeling frisky) with the ability to spy on me and my family.â
Immigration -> âNext to all of us immigrated at some point, I donât see why the elites get to decide whoâs allowed to be where. Whatâs to stop them coming for me?â
Climate Change -> âBig oil shouldnât get to determine whether or not I get to go places. I donât want to be dependent on some big business to survive.â
State Violence -> âI donât want the goddamn secret police breathing down my neck! I trust my community a whole hell of a lot more to help me than I do the state!â
The vast majority of conservatives think of themselves as underdogs being repressed by the government/the elite, and they value personal freedom (specifically their personal freedom, they donât care about other people). The will almost always agree with leftist points if you can find a way to blame the problem on their vague enemies (useful, since rich people are the root of most problems), and tie it back to their ability to say fuck everyone else. NEVER appeal to science, theory, logic, or human goodness. Make it seem as if you are a paranoid lunatic who trusts no one. They love it.
#you need to tailor your arguments to people's existing values and priorities if you want to convince them #the flip side is that it's every bit as easy to tailor conservative arguments to convince a leftist audience #so don't get smug #you're not immune to this either <- prev extremely true

âTry to imagine a tower of cubes which stretches to the sky. Try to imagine the cube at the very top of the tower. Try to imagine a door in the side of the topmost cube. Can you imagine walking through that door? Do you know whatâs inside?â
â Question from a diagnostic assessment for a mental illness Iâm trying to invent
i had to work with The Fucking Spike from 2017 to 2025 and it's a miracle i never damaged anything. up until of course i stopped using the tablet for over 3 weeks and the apple pencil just like, died from planned obsolescence. they do that, btw, the battery is designed to just Fail if you stop using it for 3 weeks to a month. by the way.
oh my goodness, one of dian fosseyâs first close up observations with gorillas happened when she was trying to climb a tree to see them better, but so badly that by the time sheâd gotten up the entire group had come out of hiding to look at her: âNearly all members of the group had totally exposed themselves, forgetting about hiding coyly behind foliage screens because it was obvious to them that the observer had been distracted by tree-climbing problems, an activity they could understand.â
[Image transcript: porch. The group had been day-nesting and sunbathing when I contacted them, but upon my approach they nervously retreated to obscure themselves behind thick foliage. Frustrated but determined to see them better, I decided to climb a tree, not one of my better talents. The tree was particularly slithery and, try as I might, no amount of puffing, pulling, gripping, or clawing succeeded in getting me more than a few feet aboveground. Disgustedly, I was about to give up when Sanwekwe came to my aid by giving one mighty boost to my protruding rump; tears were running from his eyes as he was convulsed in silent laughter. I felt as inept as a baby taking its first step. Finally able to grab on to a conveniently placed branch, I hauled myself up into a respectful semislouch position in the tree about twenty feet from the ground. By this time I naturally assumed that the combined noises of panting, cursing, and branch-breaking made during the initial climbing attempts must have frightened the group on to the next mountain. I was amazed to look around and find that the entire group had returned and were sitting like front row spectators at a sideshow. All that was needed to make the image complete were a few gorilla-sized bags of popcorn and some cotton candy! This was the first live audience I had ever had in my life and certainly the least expected.]
imagine some freakish not-a-human alien THING has shown up out of nowhere and is trying to get into your office building to study you. but it has no idea how to get past a revolving door. it tries for three hours. by the time it finally understands the concept of a revolving door and squeeze into the building everyone in the office is crowded into the lobby to watch and call helpful suggestions. itâs conclusively determined that the alien is definitely not a threat, except maybe to itself.

College football's latest existential crisis, summarized:
Medium-term background: Over the last ten and especially last five years, college football has gone from the fiefdoms of stuffy provincial old farts so devoted to the mirage of amateurism that programs could get in trouble for putting cream cheese on bagels, to a free-for-all wild west where players go shopping for new teams every season and whoever has the biggest firehose of money wins. This is in large part because the athletes being unpaid in the first place was never legally sustainable and only lasted so long out of inertia and coordination issues. If you're pro-labor it's a good and necessary thing overall, but for smaller programs, their fans, and anyone with a bit of romance about the game, it's been a disaster. On a related note, sports gambling has gone from something only legal in a handful of US cities to infinitely accessible to anyone with a smartphone over the same five years. Some would say these are both part of the same trend, namely very rich people getting to do anything they want because no one gives a shit about rules or ethics anymore, but that's neither here nor there.
Short-term background: A year or two ago, Texas oil billionaire Cody Campbell basically bought the Texas Tech athletic program. Tech has historically been a B-to-C-tier team with a massive chip on its shoulder thanks to never being able to get past the A-tier schools. Campbell is now chairman of the board of regents, i.e. the boss' boss' boss of most of the other people in this story. This past offseason he paid $5 million to recruit a quarterback named Brendan Sorsby, previously with Indiana and Cincinnati.
Last few weeks: Sorsby is outed as having a massive gambling addiction, from the stereotypical "up 'til 3 AM betting on Malaysian soccer" stuff to betting individual balls and strikes in baseball games to (brace yourself) betting on his own teams to lose or underperform. For example, to paraphrase a redditor's take, 'he saw his teammate struggling and instead of wanting to help him get better, he put a hundred bucks on the guy to get Under 2.5 Catches next game'.
From most of the Chicago White Sox in 1919 to Pete Rose in 1989, any professional athlete who has done anything remotely like this has been banned for life from their sport and made persona non grata. But again, college sports is a lawless wasteland right now and Cody Campbell didn't get rich by taking losses on his investments, no sir. He paid for Sorsby and Sorsby's gonna play. After the NCAA (college sports' governing body, a shambling rotten corpse of its former cream-cheese-outlawing self) seemed to have finally found a rule they could enforce without a labor-law suit bitchslapping them, banning Sorsby, Campbell more or less went judge-shopping until he found a retired judge willing to issue an injunction allowing Sorsby to play.
To be clear, Campbell and his puppets (head coach, athletic director, university president; their collective inability to shut the fuck up throughout this has led people to suspect that Campbell basically ordered them to go all-offense in PR.) aren't disputing that Sorsby is a gambling addict who bet on his own team to lose. They're saying that it would be discrimination against the mentally ill to not allow him to play. The words the judge used were 'irreparable harm'. Analogies spread on reddit over the last few weeks have included "holding AA meetings in a bar", "letting a drunk driver go scot-free because alcoholism is a disease", and "a banker caught stealing from customer funds getting a promotion".
The entire college football world, which had spent the last five years tearing itself apart over TV money and private equity, immediately united against Campbell and Tech. Several colleges wiped any games with Tech in any sport from their schedule, their conference intimated that they can and would expel them by member vote, the attorneys general of Oklahoma, Utah, and Kansas all promised to take action. And to be clear this was a truly existential, all hands on deck crisis: if the athletes are taking dives for money, then there is no sport. It's a bunch of mercenary hustlers dressing up like football players to pretend to play football. Even the vampiric sportsbooks themselves don't want this: nobody bets on fixed matches.
Bear in mind also it's not out of the question that Sorsby could be arrested for this: he was under 21 for much of this and sent money across state lines for family and friends to gamble with. So Campbell got his own lawyer: Ken Paxton, Texas state AG and current senate candidate. While Reddit hates every Texas Republican politician, the Texan posters do seem to regard Paxton as uniquely stupid and incompetent. He was impeached three years ago, which, how do you manage to do that as a Republican AG in Texas?
Anyway, this is where my law-fu gets a little weak, but apparently Paxton's filing on Tech and Campbell's behalf was so incompetently written, so wildly aggressive without any authority to actually see it through, that it opened up his clients to legal vulnerabilities that wouldn't have existed otherwise and sets the prosecution up for a thorough beatdown. So, late last night, Tech dumps mutually parts with Sorsby, rumored to have kept around half of his $5 million payday for barely avoiding becoming the Shoeless Joe Jackson of football. Campbell gets told "no" for the first time in years and loses millions of dollars for nothing. Paxton was (admittedly they say this every time) apparently in a tight race with Democrat James Talarico, and now he very publicly has argued that the 5th-most-popular college team in his own state should let their quarterback fix games for gambling rings because his billionaire sugar daddy threw a tantrum over it. May end up mattering, may not.
Everything in the world has been like this for the last six years.
You have to let your black queer friends know its ok to present as masculine.
You have to let the stud know that you don't see her as less of a woman. You have to let the transfem know you won't see her as a threat if she pauses in her performance for a moment. You have to let the transmasc know he won't be a threat in your eyes if he chooses black manhood. You have to let the black masc gay man that his presence is not a danger to everyone else, you have to let him know that he does not stick out, he is not unwelcome.
You have to let them all know, that their masculinity is not a threat to you. That they do not have to twist and warp themselves into a different version of themselves to be acceptably queer. To be 'safe'.

Why does the KKK have to have the term grand wizard, like every time I want to make a high ranking wizards, I think oh he's the grand wizard, then I remember, that's the leader of the KKK, and I have to change it to royal wizard or something
They don't use Grand Wizard anymore, so you could steal it. Also even if they did still use it, fuck the KKK, dilute their ownership of the term. You could also use High Wizard, Lord Wizard, Great Wizard, Chief Wizard, or Master Wizard.
They still use the term, there are living people with the title. And I don't think I, as a white Midwesterner have any right to "reclaim" grand wizard as a term. Why do white people want so badly to be allowed to use KKK terms?
I don't think there's any need to be allowed? Or that reclaim is an appropriate word. It's not a slur. It's two words in the English language that a hate group used as one of their titles. If we avoid using them together forever that remains the only association people have with them. They don't get to pollute the language with their baggage forever.
"if we avoid using swastikas forever than Nazis remain the only association people have with them" <- this is what you are saying. The KKK killed thousands of people for crimes such as voting, running for office, making too much money as a Black person and opposing segregation, they are not something to invoke frivolously to destigmatize words
â âfriends donât look at friends like thatâ devalues friendship/platonic forms of love, pushes amatonormativity
â âhistorians will call them friendsâ devalues historians and forces complex relationships into modern simplicities, also devalues friendship/platonic forms of love
â âdo they know its legal nowâ suggests the characters are stupid, poorly suggests that this is the only barrier to their relationshipâboth of which are funny as hell
