Just noticed I joined EMC 10 years ago. I've had a lot of fun over that time. May 7, 2025 at 9:43 PM

      Isn't it great when your deep in the unfamiliar frontier and your almost through the portal back to safety when you suddenly spot a swelling creeper standing right in front of you?

      Considering there is no mention of Elfin losing their head last night I might have to assume no one got it.

      There always seems to be a lot of talk of the economy on this server. I like seeing players buy from my shop but it is really only a small percentage of why I enjoy this server. It's the community and events like the Big Digs or Build a Base that makes this server for me.

        I recently started a build with BlockHead_56. I'm having a ton of fun building and chatting. There is much more enjoyment in building with others that far outweighs the need for rupees. My thought for the day.

        I agree with this sentiment! Don’t get me wrong, I liked it when we still had a great economy, but the community fuzzies from being in a great group is far more prized.

      I'm starting to think people should develop The Force ability as we age. There always seems to be something I need, that is just out of reach, the moment I sit down. I now realize why my parents had five kids, there would be at least one of us around to get that item.

        ...but having a robot would give me an uneasy feeling. I've seen too many robot uprising movies. Now, you might be thinking, farmer why don't you just plan ahead. Ha, if it only were that easy. Ah well, enough wishfull thinking.

        But yes we absolutely should grow attuned to the Force heheh

      Just found out the hard way that Piglins can open oak doors. I was AFK in a shelter with a door and came back to find the respawn screen. Luckily nothing despawned but I did have a difficult time getting rid of the piglin without my armour and sword that were at his/her feet.

        Thanks for the ideas. I did switch over to a iron door with buttons. The only thing about iron doors is they don't stay open long enough. If I fumble even for a fraction of a second getting through they shut in my face. Oh well.

        perhaps then a lever? or stone/wood buttons have different 'tick' values I believe, try a wood button instead?
        ... as for the entire situation:
        Crappity crap!@#! I didn't know that either, thanks for sharing

      Anyone ever try Cardoon? Just curious. Those are the seeds I'm starting now. I've grown it for a few years now and everyone loves the gratin I make with it.

      I've been enjoying the time at the Build a Base site. I'm trying to fill my build with recognizable furniture so I'm having fun exploring that side ofbuilding but the most enjoyable aspect is building along side other players.

      My favorite ice cream flavor is peanut butter swirl. The thicker the layer of peanut butter the better.

      Anyone ever notice the strings of Starlink satellites? I saw a string of 55 bright sats a couple days ago. There's something impressive about it.

        My brother actually said something about this in the past month or so?! I haven’t personally witnessed it yet, but he described it the same way. Usually on a clear night, I can spot singular satellites, but never have I seen clusters or lines of them.

      It's currently 92 deg f in the sunny greenhouse. I'm thinking of going in there to lay on a bench to soak up the heat.

        No, I wish it was attached to the house but it is a stand alone greenhouse.

        I bet one right by my wall would probably get even hotter if set up, then! Especially with Tennessee being a warmer place in all seasons than Massachusetts, and having more daylight in late autumn, winter and early spring.

        It would be a great way to warm the house on those cooler days. The heat also warms the soil so you get the spring scent. I really enjoy that.

      Got a little froglight farm up and running. One thing I learned is that frogs are sneaky and can find their way out of deep pits.

        Indeed. Like foxes, they can jump very high! They're even more capable than foxes, though.

      My internet is down now but before that I started heading back from my outpost. It's nice to explore but to not have anyone within 40k gives me a weird sense of isolation. Back to tow

      I flew out to my outpost. Of course I didn't pack enough rockets so I had to walk a little to get here.

    I'm a farmer in real life.

    I took the picture below in 2020. People enjoy sunflowers so I grow as many as possible each year.

    That's the upper part of my field and my house in the background.
