IMPORTANT SITE REMINDERS ARE LISTED AFTER THIS RANT (so please read all of it in order to find the rules >:3)
On this mega I shall take the opportunity to rant about one of my favorite things: the Webnovel UNJUST DEPTHS!
Do you love transgenders?
Do you love communism?
Do you love queer romance?
Do you love killing fascists in a giant fucking mech?
Would a plotline with all of these things happening in a underwater retro-futuristic gundam setting intrigue you?
Especially if its actually really well written with good characters, rich worldbuilding, and a marxist leninist transfem author?
All of the answers should be: YES I DO ~~or else I WILL BAN YOU~~
Since you obviously love all of those things then Unjust Depths is perfect for YOU yes YOU! It is DESTINY
The Imbrian Ocean is at a time of severe instability. The monarch of the vast Empire that spans its unjust depths (:3) is sick and nearing death, every territory of the ocean now vying to carve their own Destiny out of the chaos. From the Volk fascists , Zionists (they literally will not die why are they still here oh my god), The 'Anarchists' (social chauvanists) in Bosporus, and the monarchs of each vast noble domain, each vies for power and prestige no matter who they crush underfoot, but it would be a pretty depressing story without a bright light in the dark.
On the edge of the Empire sits the glorious Union! The (Soviet) Union is a socialist federation of three states (and one anarchist mountain )that were formerly slave colonies under the Imbrian Empire until they broke away in a fierce liberation war. They have spent the last 20 years since then building themselves up. Whether they be Human , Shimmi (Catgirls who usually follow a religion closely related to modern Islam), and Kattaran (a hybrid humanoid species with characteristics of sea life ranging from sharks to cuttlefish)building socialism side by side.
First lead under the revolutionary leader Dashka Kansal, then the Idealist Ahwalia who lead the country to near ruin in pursuit of building a utopia on pillars of sand, then under the scientific socialist leadership of the Grand Marshall of the Union, Bhavani Jayanskar (I love Jayanskar so much shes basically as if Stalin, Lenin, and Zhukov were rolled into the same person but was a black lesbian badass who wore the uniform REALLY WELL)(she aint the main character at all tho shes only in very few scenes i just love her so much). Under Jayanskar, the Union has been growing their economy to both eliminate hunger and give everyone a home , but also growing their military capabilities for the inevitable return of the Empire. The Union is alone, but with the people by its side nothing, not even Destiny, can snuff out true freedoms light.
As war wages between the Empire and Republic (basically underwater USA) once more over the lands between them, the facade begins to finally crack...
And a border conflict between the Empire and Union escalate, and the dreaded reconquest begins.
Amidst this turmoil, lives our main characters (yes there are multiple and all of them are lovely). Each of whom I personally love dearly, and are very well characterized. Many are soldiers of the Union, some are scientists, some are divers (mech pilots), some are lost strands finding new meaning after joining this band of Brigands
All are Communists
All serve the Union
All would gladly give their lives to defending socialism
but even they would have little inkling of the adventure set in store for them as the lands beneath the waves erupt in fire, fury, and revolt
Can these transgender badasses kick fascist ass?
Can they kiss? (oh my god please kiss ISTG THERE IS SO MUCH SHIPPING AHHHH ITS GLORIOUS)

you know, in my more than a decade of playing minecraft, I don't think I have ever made leather armour. who tf has the time early game to get 24 leather
I've still made wooden shovels even though thats literally pointless, you get stone shovels so early, you only need a wood pickaxe just to get stone. And stone is literally everywhere
big ups to the millions of wood pickaxes that literally only mined like 20 cobblestone to make a stone pick, axe, and furnace
you can dye it for drip though
Same. I don't like killing animals is part of it lol.
my most recent mc playthrough has me never killing animals. Changes the game flow somewhat, thank fuck for apples. Vegan Minecraft.
most of the food I get is I just steal the metric shit load of wheat villagers just leave laying around, and then I plunder their crop feilds and plant my own. I rarely kill the animals because it's just such little resourcees for the time investment of running around to find them. can even steal a village bed so you don't gotta find sheep
I also decided not to steal from villagers...
the villagers are the nexus of commodity production. when one engages with the villagers they go from making sticks to use for tools to making vast stacks of stick to merely sell as commodities toa fletcher. they wish to destroy the inate actually existing communist modality of minecraft. furthermore, the the Hitler particles within every petite bourgeois villager were not obvious, they have a executioner walking around town (the Iron Golem), in which any form of minor accidental harm is punishable by death; the Iron golem will not stop until you or it dies.
I do not respect the villagers
Potatoes too.
Buttcraft has potatoes? Woah...
They're pretty amazing like real life potato's. You plant one and it makes more with time or bone meal. You then put them in a furnace/smoker or on a campfire and get "baked potatoes" which restore 5 hunger and 6 hunger saturation which is decent for such a basic process.
Wheet to bread is also vegan but somewhat tedious.
haha i keep playing packs that make bread really difficult for some reason, like frick it's hard enough to get me to put the stuff into a furnace, why you gotta make me get a bucket too and knead dough? the steve needs food!
based. Last skyblock we did my partner was determined to use Alchemistry to make vegan leather. He succeeded.
Okay wtf is alchemistry.
oh no, I think maybe you should run from modded Minecraft. Don't be like me, I have 1000s of hours in it. Save yourself.
Anyway, https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/alchemistry
Adds machines, you have to power them, so you'll need some sort of generator mod too ... I usually play packs, never really tried to make my own pack. You can break things down into elements and recombine them. The UI is kinda janky in my experience, Partner got more into it than I did, I just used it in ATM9 To The Sky! to make ... uh, something, I can't remember what.
Idk, I kind of miss minecraft proper. Getting invested is pretty hard now. I think I still have the wrong kind of autism...
I find it harder and harder to get sucked in like I used to. I got back for a few days a year.
One of my favorites games I've played is a map that with a huge desert. There is a large flat village next to my spawn and my house (a repurposed desert temple) with dozens of cats. They're constantly killing rabbits so every trip nets a dozen pets to make let make leather.
Iron on the other hand was much rarer. So I used leather a lot (also lots of husks dropped leather gear). But that's pretty much the only time.
