On its own, I would call that dismissive. Generally, I would say that “negativity that does not needlessly affect others” is more about adding to the discussion in a healthy but negative way. Personal anecdotes, pushing for future positive action, simple sympathy/empathy, or even the below part of my comment, would be what I would put under this category.

Sadly, I don’t think it is possible to have rigid objective categories due to the subject of this community. But that was my thoughts.

I don’t frequent this community, so please take what I say with a grain of salt, but I’m not seeing many bars/criteria which is what is being requested so I’ll throw in my two cents.

\1. If it is reasonable context or updates the average person would want/need, then it should be allowed.

Examples:

“It’s great the old lady recovered from her fall down the stairs, but unfortunately, a few hours after this article, she fell down again : (”

“She fell down the stairs because the step height was inconsistent, that needs to be fixed ASAP.”

\2. If it is pointed, hostile, or drumming up anger, it should NOT be allowed.

Examples:

“It’s the Radical Escalator Group that weakened stair legislation!”

“She should have been more careful. This is clearly on the old lady.”

\3. If it is dismissive of the good news or tries to make people feel bad for enjoying the good news, it should NOT be allowed.

Examples:

“Sure SHE recovered, but what about the hundreds of stair fall victims who don’t?”

“How does this help anyone?”

“If you don’t check the stairs you use and report bad stairs, this is your fault, and you shouldn’t be celebrating her recovery.”

\4. General negativity that does not needlessly effect others should be allowed.

Examples:

“My grandma fell down the stairs too. Hoping for a recovery”

“My stairs are all messed up too, but sadly I rent, so I can’t fix them…”

“This will likely happen again. We should make sure the needed resources for recovery are available, or the next one might not end so happily.”

I do think the only punishment should be removal and a warning, but I do not mod, so I’ll leave that discussion to the experts.

Dang it, cocoa instead of coffee… That’s alright. It still has caffeine just a lot less, like chocolate. May not be a large reaction, but I’ll still be taking notes! Unfortunately, I don’t recall if we ever see Vee or any other demon eating chocolate, so it will be tough to compare…

Previous experiments. I believe they are called Three and Four. Vee is called that since she was Five and V is the roman numeral for five. Basically older siblings of Vee

Interesting thing to note: fire prone brushlands, which are often included in the public coloquial idea of savanna, are one of the few ecosystems with a comparable biodiversity to rainforests. Also, the difference between jungle and rainforest is that the tangle of undergrowth is larger, and sunlight is more able to breach the canopy, fueling that undergrowth. So, if we were willing to stretch these ideas to the absolute extreme, we could argue that the savanna - with fire prone brushlands included - is a jungle due to the heavy “undergrowth” fueled by the sunlight breaching an EXTREMELY sparse canopy.

Or if we want to stick to reality, we can just accept the title is a bit of a misnomer lol

Ok, so Mark’s coffee lore is getting intricate.

We know coffee effects witches differently. We know a stronger coffee can knock out a witch. We also know Amity enjoys coffee. We also know it isn’t just a difference in how it is made since Luz made regular coffee for Amity and probs wouldn’t have made it super different.

So what makes sense would be that Amity doesn’t drink coffee to stay awake but to relax. Since the active compounds must be the same (since nothing else about the drink seems to change), caffeine must be a depressant for Witches instead of a stimulant.

Now Hunter has the effect of coffee as a stimulant. So either this is how Grimwalkers in general are affected, OR sine Hunter is a Grimwalker made from Humanity he is affected like a human.

Now we need Jay to drink coffee and have a strong reaction so we can know if it is a Grimwalker thing. Also, it would be interesting to see how it affects Demons, Titans, and Collectors.

I want to say there was a comic where she revealed that she knew everything that was going to happen but literally couldn’t do anything to stop it because of how her magic worked, and it looked to be driving her a tad crazy. Sadly, I can’t find it right now. Maybe it was a different oracle, though we don’t have a ton of options lol

My mind went to this somewhat relevant xkcd: https://xkcd.com/1172/

I want to imagine he was so uncaring that instead of getting up and walking over, he just made an illusion of his hands and the sheet closer to her face lol

Very odd because I got it on Java first before I got it on Bedrock. All I had to do was open the Minecraft launcher, log into Java, then clicked single player. I then closed out of Minecraft and when I reopened the launcher and checked my skins I had the cape.

It is available on Java too by just logging in and hitting play

Caleb, the ghost, was killed by his brother Phillip, the guy getting scared. His wife informed him that if he was happy, he wouldn’t be able to stay, so instead, he is haunting his killer as a vengeful spirit. But humorously, it is depicted as a bland and boring job.

Oddly enough, this kind of contradicts everything we’ve seen about ghosts so far in these comics. For example, Luz’s dad watching over her. That or Evelyn (the wife) is just wrong in what she told Caleb.

That’s it! Though it looks like my brain made up the rivalry lol

If I remember correctly, Mark did do a comic with a stand-in character before! It was also in the oracle track and was kind of a rival to Celine. Celine figured out the author stand-in by how much they knew without casting a spell

Question: Is Stringbean actively flying in front of a person in the human realm??? Luz is NOT paying with snails. Those are dollar bills. Also, if I remember correctly, Azura is a human realm franchise where some leaked into the demon realm, so Azura merch like that wand would be more likely in the human realm.

So either Stringbean is causing Luz to need to do a LOT of explaining, OR - and this is a fun one - could that hand belong to one of Luz’s friends who already know and are taking advantage? I could see Hunter doing this to convert snails to dollars lol. Buy something Luz wants using snails and sell it to her in dollars

You know, this explains some stuff. Namely, why the guard can be so ineffective. If their final task is to kill one another, Hunger Games style, then you would expect the “best of the best” to be quick to turn on one another for their own safety rather than assisting one another. Even explains why that one guard who found Vee preferred to just let her go for their own safety instead of following directions. That is how they are trained!

Also, as a side note: that also helps explain how Belos went through SO MANY golden guards. You have to assume a good amount failed that test.

So now we know why Luz was confident she could write a book on Philip and Caleb later on to make Hunter happy. She has had practice writing about the Boiling Isles!
