I FINISHED THIS TECHNOBLADE NEVER DIES
so in the last secret video there were some typos in the captions of the video.
it turns out when you put all these typos together it makes a link to a discord server. the server is completely empty... except for a download to another minecraft world!!!
this map is MUCH bigger than the last one. this image shows all of it. it has a bit of parkour up to a lot of very colourful blocks, with a portal-looking thing at the end made out of spruce logs. and again, all in the void.
also, did you notice the armour stands in the world? there are pressure plates next to them, and when you press them some messages pop up.
all the messages are:
"you've left! you've actually done it!"
"it's so beautiful out here! look at all the colours!"
"it's all ok! you haven't hurt anyone, we'll all be fine!"
"you aren't a bad person!"
"you didn't kill me, not really! once i'm reborn, my mind will be reset, and my memories forgotten!"
"i'm not dead, i'll just be spawned in another dimension!"
...but did you think that was it? nope, this is the longest post i've ever had to make for a reason.
there's also some secret messages in the form of command blocks hidden in the rainbow blocks.
all the messages are:
"this is temporary"
"they aren't real"
"but you won't forget, ivory"
"i love you, ivory"
once you get to the portal, there's line of barrier blocks that eventually lead to a big line of spruce forest, and you can run through the forest to get more messages.
all the messages are:
"they aren't real, they're projections of who you want them to be"
"she's still coming after you. keep running."
"you can't let yourself into her grasp again"
"you did hurt them, but you can change."
"i don't think you can understand me right now. just keep running, we'll meet later."
and FINALLY (finally) there's a book and quill at the end of the line that simply has the letter l.
i absolutely understand all of this is very hard to follow in the form of a tumblr text post, so i recommend downloading the world yourself and exploring! here's the link to the discord server:
and with that, my work here is done. all of it. hopefully.
Quackity's new teaser for QSMP 2 (or something??) contained a long sequence of morse code which I... spent like 6 hours decrypting, and this is an explanation of how I did it (and you can, too, shall you wish to!)
I also posted a shorter analysis on my blog where I looked at all the different aspects of the video (the spoken words, the words flashing on the screen AND the morse code) in case you wanna learn more about the video in general.
The only program I used for this was audacity, which is free and which you can download quite easily.
First, I recorded the audio by playing the video in one tab and recording it via Audacity in another using a tutorial here. Before that, I tried to use VLC, but it has a bug that makes it so it will only record the video and not the audio. Still, useful if you only want the video!
After I had the audio of the whole video, I needed to extract the morse code since in some sequences, it would be literally impossible (at least for me, dunno about you superhuman) to understand the morse code due to all the background noise. To do this, I first looked at a sequence where there was ONLY the morse code and nothing else and analyzed the spectrum of this.
This 'spectrum' is essentially just a graph of how much sound of a certain frequency (measured in Hz) is in a certain snippet that I selected.
The top is the frequency of the morse code, so the plan is to keep this frequency (469 Hz) and throw everything else out.
In order to do this, I used the menus which you can find in audacity under 'effects -> Dominic Mazzoni,' reduced the volume of everything above 480 Hz by 48 Db (there is an option for how much you want to reduce it, but seeing as we don't need it at all we might as well reduce it as much as possible) and same for everything below 460.
After cutting it, I was left with a recording of (mostly) only the morse code.
Of course, I tried to do it the lazy way and punched the thing into a software which is supposed to be able to get morse code from recordings, CwGet. Did not work though, the thing is like REALLY old so I'd recommend searching another one. The only thing it DID grab correctly was 'is sacred im coming' but besides that it was just... bs.
SO, I had to do it myself.
(the best flowchart for morse code I was able to find)
Now, I won't bore you with all of the stuff where I wasn't sure about something and had to go over it over and over again, but one thing I do want to mention is that, in a very specific part, I did the filtering thing again, this time with 465 and 475 Hz though, and got an even cleaner result out of that. BUT, the more you do that the quieter the whole thing gets so I had to crank up the volume everywhere all the way. You hear it more clearly but it's quieter.
The following is, of course, not completely guaranteed to be true, but it sounds like the most logical one to me.

I still haven't been able to find the missing k 'back' technically has, it is possible it comes WAYYYY later and so I don't have it in my recording, but I think the message is clear enough.
There are still passages where I am completely unsure what they mean. It could be me not understanding it correctly, but the rest has been fairly easy so I don't know about that. It could also be encrypted or just complete bullshit. Either way, if you want to give it a try and see if you can make something of it, please feel free to give it a listen!
The complete text reads as:
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry please help, help, help SOS SOS SOS It's not real, it's not possible to have this You are meant for this You are meant for this You are meant [to] return to your (ORIEFIRLGFBEYAMMD/ORIFISLGFBEYAMMD (yes no idea either)) That wall, it is cursed It is sacred I'm coming bac[k].
brackets [ ] where there should be something in order for it to make sense but there isn't.
One interesting thing I've noticed is that other people on the server use a mixed iteration of the words faction member / [faction colour] member / [name of faction] member to refer to their faction members but the lifestealers on the server almost always use the word "teammate" when referring to their faction members which is really interesting. Old habits die hard and all that
what being in the null does to a girl ❤️🩹❤️🩹
Imagine later, when Rosie is much, much older, she finally gets into astronomy of all topics. She learns about the solar system, the galaxy, everything she can get her hands on and eventually, Sherlock finds out.
He's confused, doesn't understand why she'd learn and store all this unnecessary information but then, she explains the solar system to him, with eyes glowing like the very sun itself, and a few days later Sherlock knows every planet of the solar system and every close star, not because he tried, not because he used his mind palace, but because it was important.
Rosie had told him, she had told him all about it, so of course it was important enough to remember because his daughter had told him that

Let's appreciate the Appearance feature in Hogwarts Legacy for once.
Inspired by a skit by ProZD on Youtube:
I just can't get Pangi witnessing the Pili/Clown fight out of my head. He knew Pili's chances were small but he still believed, so so strongly, that Pili could win.. until he saw them fight. And then he realised how terribly outmatched Pili was, esp with the state of mind he was in. Or maybe he finally understood that Pili never intended to win.. And Pili died. And Pangi, who had this big plan of jumping in the arena, picking Pili's stuff and killing everyone, just.. stayed there. Watching. You could almost hear the moment his heart just broke and it just paralysed him
