Hey, you, cis girl that's very (correctly) vocal about women being allowed to talk about their periods, do you include trans women in that?
I ask because every single time I've tried to talk about it to anyone that isn't a trans woman they get fucking angry. Which has caused me to have to just suffer in silence every single month. So I really relate to cis women when they talk about literally the exact same thing; being shamed by everyone around them their whole lives for talking about their periods, so they just suffer in silence every month as it negatively impacts their work and social lives. But I don't even feel like I can voice that I am literally dealing with the same exact thing because most of y'all react like you want to throw me in front of a bus for saying it, even those of you who act like your such big great transfem allies.
I guess I'll take this opportunity to talk about trans women periods.
The first thing any tme person thinks when they hear this is always "how can trans women have periods? They don't have uteruses!"
The answer is: the uterus isn't what causes your period, it is effected by your period. What causes your period and what causes trans women's periods is the same thing: the endocrine system.
HRT changes the sex of your endocrine system. Feminizing HRT makes it a female endocrine system, giving us a 28-day hormone cycle just like cis women. At the end of that cycle, the hypothalamus floods the body with prostaglandins. Those are what cause all but one of the period symptoms, because they make muscles inflame and contract. They are what make the uterus shed its lining, they are what cause intestinal cramps, they are what cause body aches, they are what cause headaches and migraines. The only period symptom not causes by the release of prostaglandins throughout the body is depression, and that is caused by your endocrine system simply not processing as much estrogen and from simply feeling like shit.
So, the only symptoms trans women don't get every 28 days is menstrual cramps, because yes we do not menstruate since we don't have uteruses. But migraines, depression, body aches, intestinal cramps, and the infamous "period shits" don't exactly add up to us having any better of a time. Except we have to pretend that we're fine and nothing is different because no one believes that we get periods, not even cis women.
"But you can't call it a period then because that refers to MENSTRUATION!" is another one I hear all the time. This is incorrect. You use the word "period" instead of just "menstruation" because it doesn't just refer to menstruation. It refers to a period at the end of the hormone cycle where we experience a host of symptoms. And not all cis women experience all of the symptoms that encompass the period. Not all cis women get migraines, or body aches, or have severe depression. If a cis woman gets a hysterectomy she doesn't menstruate either! In that instance she experiences an identical period to what trans women experience. Yet, I doubt you'd insist that cis women who've had hysterectomies don't have periods.
Oh, another thing that I personally discovered after bottom surgery: vaginal odor changes for trans women during our periods too. I was not expecting that because I always thought it was just from menstruation. But nope, the ph levels of a trans woman's vagina are the same of as a cis woman's vagina, and it changes during our periods just the same.

A method to categorize Hermitcraft and adjacent series: Continuity families
Each Pearl here can conceivably be categorized into an individual continuity.
Introduction
This concept of a continuity family is derived from the Transformers Wiki, TFWiki.net:
“...[It] is a term for a group of distinct but closely-related individual continuities… It is not a declaration of immutable canon, but it is an extremely useful organizational tool.”
Continuity families consist of multiple separate, irreconcilable universal timestreams (in layperson’s terms, AUs or ‘alternate universes,’ henceforth continuities; all three terms are synonymous). That is, continuities existing with the same family are distinct, but closely related in some fashion.
Whether multiple seasons constitute the same continuity or are separate depends on the subject matter: multiple series can be part of the same continuity, and multiple continuities can comprise a single series. Continuities encompass both official and unofficial media: that is, everything is canon in the eyes of continuity families; it’s just a matter of where it goes. As far as their own “character lore” goes, content creators may share a continuity’s main designation, or they may have their own take on it, in which case another continuity would be designated.
List of prominent continuity families
There are several continuity families of high relevance:
Hermetheum
All Hermitcraft series with Hermitcraft somewhere in the title. This comprises both vanilla and modded seasons, as well as any fanon content set along these lines.
Examples of foundational continuities’ designations:
Hermitcraft Season 1-10 (Hermetheum 0412.13 Iota3)
And less prominently:
Hermitcraft plays Vault Hunters (Hermetheum 1023.22 Iota1)
The three above continuity families feature substantial overlap such that they are also organized into the Adjacency superfamily, which also includes such smaller continuity families such as:
Impasse - Impossible Minecraft
Centurion - 100 Hours/100 Days
Origenes - New Life, X Life, other “origins” based series
Construct - Guess The Build, other small-group build series.
Hexxen - Witchcraft SMP
Adjacency - itself a continuity family as well as being a superfamily, the former is a loose amalgamation of similar-enough continuities that feature substantial character overlap with other continuities in the same superfamily.
Continuity subfamilies also exist within this family, e.g. Archer (which includes DDVAU and HGCZ, among other families featuring a certain superhero duo of the desert.) This is also where the majority of AUs would end up, each with their own unique subfamily name, depending on personal preference. Throughout this post, I will mention a few I came up with.
Power
The Power superfamily, spatially proximal to the Adjacency superfamily, encompasses several continuity families with tangentially related yet recurring themes:
Swashbuck - Pirates SMP
Rodentia - Rats SMP 1 & 2
Wyldfire - Cowboys SMP
Crimson - Vampires SMP
Regina - Bannerfall SMP
Other continuity families
Other continuity families do exist, of course. The following are just a few examples, in order of relevancy and virtual distance from the main families focused on in this post:
Artymator - Artimators SMP
Noxcrew - MCC
Mindblow - Mindcrack SMP
Vitafurtum - Lifesteal SMP
Lyzard - Flight SMP
Stratorule - Skyblock Kingdoms
Duke - QSMP
Yet other Adjacency examples (not exhaustive)
Archer - Superhero/villain AUs, especially Desert Duo centric
Nexos - Mecha-based AUs
Pocetmo - Pokemon AUs (further subdivided into Mystery Dungeon-based and mainline-based)
Under the continuity family system, each individual continuity’s official designation consists of three parts, beginning with the continuity family of origin, a number that indicates the "real world" date of creation, and a Greek letter that denotes the primary medium of delivery.
The first component takes the most specific continuity family designation, which includes subfamilies where possible. The number component follows the format of MMYY.DD, whereas the Greek letters pertain to the following forms of media:
Alpha - Animatics, animations, and other animated media
Beta - Merchandise descriptions (not artwork)
Gamma - Comics
Delta - Live-action (cosplays, skits, etc)
Epsilon - Still artwork not belonging to another category
Zeta - Text or printed story (i.e. blog posts, AO3, Wattpad, etc.)
Eta - Audio-based media (e.g. podcasts)
Theta - Word of mouth (Twitter/Tumblr posts, etc.)
Iota - Web video (e.g. YouTube, Twitch). This can be further subdivided into the following:
Iota1 - Asynchronous web video (simple video uploads)
Iota2 - Synchronous web video (streams)
Iota3 - Both asynchronous and synchronous web video
Kappa - games (board games, video games, etc.)
Lambda - non-video promotional artwork, merchandise artwork, etc.
Mu - Video thumbnails (that aren’t screenshots of another category)
If multiple continuities somehow share the exact same timestream designation, a two-letter suffix consisting of the author/originator’s initials would be appended to the end of the designation to differentiate them. This is most commonly encountered if multiple creators have their own interpretation of a series’s lore:
For instance, Shubble’s finale of her Witchcraft SMP series (foundationally Hexxen 0223.18 Iota1) has it lead into Empires SMP Season 2 (which shares a timeline with Empires 1.) Thus, her continuity would be Imperium 0621.12 Iota3-SG, i.e. her interpretation of the events of Witchcraft SMP and Empires 2. (The timeline of the foundational Empires continuity implies Empires 1 existed as well, so it uses that series’s real-world start date unless otherwise noted.)
Examples
As an example: kitsuneisi’s Double Hearted (Desert Duo Vigilante AU) would be provided the following designation of Archer 1122.04 Gamma. This tells us:
This continuity was created on November 4th, 2022.
It belongs to the Archer continuity (sub)family, the continuities thereof which share the common theme of two superhero characters named Hotguy and Cuteguy.
This continuity’s main medium consists of comics.
While the short story “Fire Hazard,” published on October 5th, 2024 in text format, is regarded as canon to this continuity and thus shares the same continuity designation, if it were to be its own continuity, then it would be given the designation Archer 1024.05 Zeta.
Furthermore, the stories within the Hotguy Comic Zine, originally published on August 25th, 2024, has the designation Archer 0824.25 Gamma. However, one could regard the cover page itself to depict Archer 0824.25 Lambda - a proximal continuity consisting of just that cover page that may or may not have the exact same story as Archer 0824.25 Gamma. This is the glorious part of this system: you can give continuity designations to pretty much anything, and some continuities can have multiple designations depending on personal interpretation.
Another set of examples: ImpulseSV’s 19th episode of Hermitcraft S10 - “They Abandoned The City!,” originally uploaded on June 12th, 2024. The video itself is given the designation Hermetheum 0412.13 Iota3, as it is part of the greater Hermitcraft Vanilla foundational continuity.
Within this video, Impulse presents a story animation of his cyberpunk city, PixelPulse Valley, created by th3pooka, delivered in a comic-like format. If you take this animation as an animation, it’s Hermetheum 0624.12 Alpha. If you take this as a comic, it’s Hermetheum 0624.12 Gamma. Technically, both designations are correct and refer to the same continuity. If you frame it as part of a continuity pertaining to Impulse’s lore that includes the overarching story of Hermitcraft Season 10 (and only S10) in particular, it’s Hermetheum 0224.03 Iota3-SV.
Furthermore, if someone were to create a fanart of PixelPulse Valley the same day this video were released and frame it to Hermitcraft as a whole, it would receive the designation Hermetheum 0624.12 Epsilon-<XX>, where XX would be the author’s initials. If framed to just Season 10, it would be Hermetheum 0224.03 Epsilon-<XX>.
Continuities can also overlap during crossover events, but the multiple-interpretations clause of this system can throw a wrench in the mix: for instance, in their main continuities, the “Empires Crossover” would be the temporary convergence of continuities Hermetheum 0412.13 Iota3 (Hermitcraft Vanilla) and Imperium 0621.12 Iota3 (Empires 1-2).
However, if one were to consider Hermitcraft Season 9 as its own continuity, it would instead be a crossover between Hermetheum 0322.05 Iota3 and Imperium 0621.12 Iota3-<XX> (where XX are your initials) instead. A crossover event is canon to both Hermetheum continuities, but as the characters of the foundational Empires continuity didn’t visit Hermitcraft in two different continuities, it necessitates the creation of a new Imperium continuity which is otherwise exactly the same as the foundational continuity to account for this discrepancy. In other words, since “your” headcanon regards Hermitcraft S9 as its own thing separate from other HC seasons, a new “version” of the Empires continuity needs to be created to account for that (since the characters of the foundational continuity didn’t visit your version of the HC 9 world.)
Further examples
Magnus continuity subfamily, subset of Adjacency family (The Hermit Archives)
The Hermit Archives (podcast): Magnus 1022.31 Zeta
The Hermit Archives (original text format): Magnus 0722.30 Eta
Navimeques continuity subfamily, subset of Adjacency family (Boatem Knights AU)

Like, I totally had a feeling and kinda already knew, but god damn it sucks that Avid is a horrible human being. I haven’t liked the CC for months (was lowkey kinda a hater because vibes were off) but i was vibing with his and marms flight smp character, and like, obviously it’s not as bad as any of the people properly affected but it’s really annoying as a fan and fic writer, like, urgh. I had fic ideas regarding him comforting tf!Graecie and expanding on the canon interactions but now that feels like it’s tainted and I really can’t write it. And like, granted im not caught up, but what does this mean for Water’s story? Because from my knowledge his story is very intertwined with marm so does that mean he has to rewrite his entire story? Just frustrating from a storytelling and fan perspective. God like I said I kinda had a feeling but why did he have to be a shitty person???
God why couldn’t i have just been over analyzing him and hating for parasocial reasons that weren’t valid. Urg. At least that way id be able to keep enjoying his character and write about him? I don’t even feel good about including things i enjoy in my liveblogging as I catch up. It’s genuinely frustrating and annoying and sucks. Obviously not as bad as his victims but like, ugh
We know now that water is getting a new character! Yay at the very least? I hope that tf!Ellie only experiences the best and im excited to learn their story. I hope to see more of a autistic character exploration in a different way with this new character, as well as a continuation of the polycule! At least yuri now! So silver lining?
Is it now a safe space to say I always found V!Avid really annoying and attention seeking and thought it was weird how he seemed to try to insert himself into every cool or major moment in the SMP and was happy when they killed him?

so um. I'm only getting around to watching the vod now. but Legs found Pyro and Maddy's horses, fought and defeated a shadowy figure inside the cave, and found this book describing what happened to them... so someone finally knows that they didn't just leave of their own accord. but for now, the cave is empty and Maddy and Pyro are gone.
The first steps in life are not easy, not for humans and not for rooks. This rook probably just left the nest that day and walking on uneven ground the first time is not easy. They also cannot really fly at this stage, they manage a few flaps, but gaining height and landing is really difficult, so they rather walk.
