Normal.
The Upside Down.
Bro needs a therapist. (Ignore the purple tint-- it's got no relation to watchers at allllll-)
(also ignore how there's no back and the windows are just showing the background color)
RAT.
(I love it (I'm literally playing as a rat in my DND campaign right now))
You've been turned into an animal
Spin the wheel to find out which
Jevin! I don't really know him that much, so I did some research-- I saw a buncha cool Tumblr posts and I watched a vid of his.
I have come to the conclusion that Jevin is AWSOME!! Def gonna start watching him more often
Now to talk about the drawing: The skeleton ain't that great, but that's because I did this from memory and I have never taken a formal art or anatomy class and I didn't look up a reference lmao. (Also, ignore that I gave him the Elvis haircut-- I did not put effort into the hair, he just looked bald without it)
I feel like I did pretty well for accidentally making it slightly in perspective and for having never drawn a skeleton before.
Talked about this on my main a bit, but if you haven't heard the wonderful hermit Jevin has been struggling with viewership and may have to get a second job to cover his bills. Jevin is such an incredible guy and he sticks to bits so hard. He puts an amazing amount of time and effort into his content and it's heartbreaking to see him possibly have to cut down his time on hermitcraft to be able to support himself.
So, if you're looking to start up Hermitcraft OR if you want to start a new Hermit OR if you want to help out a fella in need, watch Jevin! Watch his s10! Join me!
I'm coining the tag #Jevin Marathon 2025 for anybody that wants to join me. I'll be picking up his POV and watching back all of his s10 over the next few weeks. I'm making it a marathon for myself. If you follow along, let me know! Watch his content!
Post fanart, fics, hype posts, ANYTHING and slap on this tag so I know theres people out there that want to help! Get people interested in his content!
It can be something as simple as putting his videos on in the back while you work. Get his viewership up so YouTube promotes his content to more people.
Send me stuff! Tag me in stuff! Send Jevin requests!
Here's Jevin in a jar. I'll let him out when irl Jevin can pay his bills with the job he already has.

why is nobody talking about the pure TERROR that exile is. i just watched jevin’s episode and DEAR GOD.
twenty hours of elytra flight on the nether roof to make it back home. there is nobody there, there are armor stands fashioned to look like your enemies but they aren’t there. Not only that but there’s a room. A padded room, with a plant and a painting and some cake, with tapes that play rehabilitation messages. Messages that are affirming in some parts but also terrifying in delivery and in the overall thing they’re attempting to get across. “your friends are happy you’re receiving help. you’re beautiful. you’re talented.”
where are my psychological horror fics. where’s jevin being driven slowly to madness as scar’s voice just loops over and over. i know he walked away from the building but the POTENTIAL.
the permit office is going so dystopia and i am HERE for it

cub can do a lot in 15 minutes
NOTE: apparently, while i'm being sick, i gotta try convincing people into watching cub via silly edits. not tagging every hermit in the video.
I love transformers and drew this because I thought Philza as a seeker would fit him. Loves flying, he's definitely a fighter jet. Then I had to draw Technoblade because his name already sounded like a tf name. He's a space shuttle and they go space exploring together. Have a few hcs for this au? under the cut ^^
I'm just being a nerd here alskdjgsgd Pre-war Philza: Philza is ancient. He's old and had been remodeled a few times. Better engines, sleeker and aerodynamic frame, etc. Got the whole "Angel of Death" thing going on coz he's so good at the craft job. A weapon for hire. It's what he's made for but always found it restrictive to devote his whole life to and sometimes he gets bodyguard jobs for important political figures and those are the worst! He's tired and wants to explore the vast universe. He would have wanted to get into engineering or xenobiology if he could. Most of his equipment are custom made by him. It's a part of his passion. He self taught himself a lot of trades and steals medical books so he knows how to treat himself and patch wounds. He's someone that wants to keep ahead so it makes sense to learn more but he runs into the threat of anyone finding out that the reason he's so good for several years is because he's been secretly doing things outside of what a fighter jet should be.
It drives him up the wall. He wants to be free to do what he wants and be what he wants. So when the decepticons first started making themselves known and the promise of rising up against the corrupt system sounded pretty nice... he doesn't sign up for the cause. He can see the signs of a war a mile a way and he would much rather get out while he can before the political tensions breaks into chaos.
Pre-war Techno: Technoblade would have done delivery work like transporting energon from one of the moons and back. He's space worthy and has pretty thick plating to do the job. He's also bored out of his mind. The most fun he gets is when he gets to travel further from Cybertron to load and unload trades and goods in neighboring planets. A good change in scenery but he always wanted more. So he hears of this illegal gladiatorial pit somewhere and thinks "Yeah, I could do that". There aren't any other choices. Since it's all underground, they wouldn't question a shuttle for wanting to get in. Fighting is cool. He's getting pretty good at it since he's big and that makes for a good show. He trains and finds swords his favorite to use. A crowd favorite the likes like Megatron but Techno would rather not fight the dude? He looks like he's trying to start a movement. That's not the kind of beef he wants to associate himself with. But now he's trapped because the pits aren't really safe in the long run and fighting had turned into outliving everyone else and that's kinda a lot? He just wanted to be more than just the delivery guy but now people know his name and he can't escape coz he's a criminal in the arena. The decepticons wanna recruit him and he really doesn't want to be tied down to anything anymore even if he agrees with their cause.
And then the two meet Philza's looking for a free space shuttle and Techno is looking to get out of Cybertron. They meet and are immediately like "Yeah, of course, we need to get out of here!" Riots are happening around them and they get as much stuff as they can and run. It was easy for them to slip away because everyone's focusing on the war rn. A lot of other neutrals are fleeing too and they blend right in but break away to make it out on their own.
They chill out in space and go planet hopping for supplies for years. If any trouble were to come their way, they destroy it. Typical Techno and Philza shenanigans. They are the strongest duo out there and keep adopting alien pets to go with them. Eventually they get a ship so Techno doesn't have to be a shuttle all the time and they set up a base far away from the war as they can. Headcanons: -They would have joined the decepticons because initially, the cause had some good points. Cybertron needed major change but Megatron's revolution would have been far too violent.
-Philza saw how dangerous the world would get really early on and wanted to get out. Fighting for a war even if he's made for it? Again? Like his whole life? "No sir. I've been through that. It never ends well."
-Technoblade is a name he gave himself in the pits. It's when he was still trying to find his own identity and found his love for pvp and swords.
-Technoblade saw a video of a pig once and said "yeah that's me"
-Philza makes Techno weapons all the time and then teaches him how to make his own.
-They're pretty efficient together but neither of them are mechanics or know how to make their own energon. So it had been a big struggle at first but they're both fast learners.
-They get mistaken for decepticons all the time. It's the stereotype and they fit the bill. Big brutish dude and a seeker. Both armed to the teeth.
-They become amicas after years of having each other's backs. Amica Endura is kinda like a best friends thing
Gotta love Joel's husband and Lizzie's wife!
Inspired off a convo they had about people referring to them as Joel's wife/ Lizzie's Husband and one of them stumbled and said Lizzie's wife or something. I watched that clip forever ago and I don't remember it anymore lol
This was me testing my colors, I normally just do line art w/ very few colors except from emphasize on a specific detail, but this is only colors. It's not my favorite, cause I was trying something I don't do often so I'm not too good at it, but Imma try this out more sometime.
This is technically my Cub day 11 art, but tbh I just drew old Minecraft vexes because I love them lmao
Did you know that the tallest moss species only gets to ~20 inches?
Very accurate
A small animation that took WAY longer than I thought it would lmao
Song by Tally Hall, it's called Banana Man
This may not seem like it should be for False, BUT it was her fans who wrote it in her video's comment section, so Imma count it (for myself at least).
Shoutout to yazidefirenze, jogailejurkonyte4746, eggggg12345, Leorrrrrrrr, and laurab.5791 for writing this dialogue in a comment section 4 years ago!
(bro I was trying to study her, cause I don't watch her that much, so I watched her most popular video, and these awesome people wrote a really cool story. I had no choice but to make this my day 5 lol)
I actually love this so much, his face is amazing and I love the lighting you used with the background to emphasize his superhero-ness
Day 4: my first time drawing poultry man and this came out better then i expected it to :D
@hermitadaymay
Anybody remember when Grian was a guinea pig in season 6? Lol I drew this without looking at any references, so that's why his guinea pig isn't accurate.
I definitely like the first page better, it's more filled w/ life I think. Imma work on consistency and backgrounds in future artworks!
Might color and add better backgrounds later, but I'm done for today lol
Edit: Noooo, I had a layer hidden and it didn't show Permit Office Grian's speaking bubble :'(
(I have changed the image now)
I head canon Grian as having red eyes prior to being a watcher, because I think it's cool and that's my only justification lmao
I'll prob not do all of the days (I've already missed day one), but I'll do the ones I can when I have the time for them lol. I'm trying to increase my art skills in my weakest subjects, like this drawing of Grian is not me at my best, but it's me when I'm trying something I'm not well applied with lol. Imma try to do a lot of different art styles for each day that I do participate in, so I'm excited for that.
i don't know which chronically ill mooties need to hear this but
you don't have to listen to the bE pOsItIve crowd
it's okay to grieve for the life that your illness robbed from you.
it's okay to feel sad when you can't do things you would have wanted to.
it's okay to detest that you have to use aids.
it's okay to look at your abled peers and feel empty, because of how you so desperately want to fit in with them but can't.
it's okay to be salty about everything you can't do while being disabled.
it's okay to not be one of the very few who are able to dEfY tHe oDds
it's okay to be terrified of the future.
because that's just what being disabled means. it's not all just pride and 'being strong,' it's absolutely miserable to face these realities sometimes.
and that's okay.
So...did u get deja vu?
WELCOME TO HERMIT-A-DAY MAY 2025!
Another year, another Hermit-a-Day May! I'm so thrilled to be able to bring this event to you all for the third year in a row.
THE RULES: 1. Any type of fanwork is welcome so long as it features, or is otherwise inspired by, the Hermit of the day. 2. Tag #hermitaday to have your fanwork reblogged, or submit it directly to the blog (Please note that while we recognize the value of fanworks involving more mature themes, and they can certainly count toward challenge completion if you're keeping track for yourself, content on this blog will be kept "PG-13" so that all may enjoy.). 3. Fanworks for one Hermit posted after the day rolls over to another Hermit's day (per the US Central time zone) will be reblogged in one big queue in June. 4. Traced or stolen work is NOT welcome. If we discover you have posted traced or stolen work, you will be given one chance to delete it and apologize, or you will be blacklisted from the blog. AI-generated/assisted pieces are similarly unwelcome and will not be featured on the blog. 5. We are not interested in seeing captions or tags in which you disparage your art/skills, and will not be reblogging posts where this happens. We're all improving all the time. Be kind to yourselves. 6. Technically not a rule, but we strongly recommend adding alt text or description to all images. Click here to learn more about writing alt text - it's pretty easy!
WHY SHOULD I PARTICIPATE? To show love to every Hermit, from the most to least subscribed, from those who have been on the server from day one to those who only joined this season! And because challenges are fun! And because we are once again out here for a good cause: we're running another fundraiser for Gamers Outreach, featuring art incentives by nine amazing artists. Learn more about our incentives in these posts:

BONUS DAY PROMPTS EXPLAINED UNDER THE CUT
FAVORITE "ALT" HERMIT - May 4th HoTGuY and Poultry-Man. Helsknight and Evil Xisuma. Renbob and - look, you get the idea. This server is full of theater kids ready to toss on an alternate skin and play into a brand new character at the drop of a hat. Who's your favorite?
OUTFIT SWAP - May 9th What would Doc look like in Cleo's Life Series leotard? How would Cub fare in Wels's armor? What laundry day mishap could lead Mumbo's suit to lose its sleeves like Skizz's? Only hilarity can come from this...
GROUPS AND COLLABS - May 14th This month is all about one Hermit a day... but what we really love is when they interact with each other. What does your favorite duo or group of Hermits get up to together?
FAVORITE BUILD - May 18th The Hermits have put thousands of hours into their builds, from cozy starter bases to the sprawling halls of Deepfrost Citadel, from idyllic natural landscapes to machines the size of mountains. Which builds have inspired you?
TFC - May 23rd While he may no longer be with us physically, TFC left behind him a legacy of quiet care and good humor, and Hermitcraft would not have been the same without him.
FRIENDS OF HERMITCRAFT - May 28th There are plenty of shows, podcasts, competitions, other servers, and more woven into the internet ecosystem around Hermitcraft, and plenty more people involved in them. Today is for celebrating all of those who, while they may not be Hermits themselves, exist and entertain in proximity to them.

Why was my first thought: thin bad guy VS Big Bad evil Guy; FIGHT
my life is consumed by thoughts of dnd
task manager kill this fucking thinbg
At my school, it's a graduation requirement to complete computer science I, but it doesn't even teach computer literacy. It teaches the basics of a couple scripting languages. That's it.
I have learned how to be computer literate because of my electives, not because of my actual computer class.
Technological literacy only exists in a very slim age demographic of people born from roughly 1980 to roughly 2007
