I just love minecraft so much and with Halloween coming up, it was the perfect idea :).
I also dyed a green line in my eyebrow to complement it.

(I know it’s not straight and that my scalp is stained, but I still love it)

Hello! Long time Minecraft player but just getting into farms and the like. Made a simple mob spawner to start, but spiders keep spawning and then sticking in the corners (picture below). I have buttons down in what I’m sure is the right pattern. Any ideas?

Edit; I’m on PC, playing Java, and to my knowledge it’s the latest version. I have no clue which one that is lol

The first thing I thought when I saw them was that they’d used up the best idea they could possibly have had for creating aliens in the game.

Let me explain: they have two eyes, each on a different side of their head, and their entire body is oriented so that a corner faces forward.

No other mob is like this; they all have their faces on a single side—even Creepers and Creakings have their faces positioned that way, and they’re plants!

To my eyes as a taxonomist, this just doesn’t sit right. If the body plan of the other mobs is a monophyletic trait—one unique to them—and the sculkers are so vastly different, it implies they aren’t closely related to animals, plants, or, by extension, fungi.

This is a crucial point, because animals belong to the Opimoda group and plants to the Diphoda group—this is the fundamental division among eukaryotes.

In other words, either the sculkers are a type of eukaryote entirely distinct from all others, or they aren’t eukaryotes at all.

It's in 26.3. Seed and coords are in the screenshot.

I don't know why, but my buddy always comes to hang out with me when I play Minecraft. He's my best friend!

I made an oil painting of this enderman. He managed to pick something up even here.

he will not elaborate in what its for

The Dappled Pale Forest Garden?? I am absolutely in love with the spooky vibes...

Finally finished my base to where I’m like “this is home”

This Minecraft portrait depicts American figure skater and 2026 Olympic champion Alysa Liu.

The new cushions were used for her face: black cushions for her eyes; red cushions for her lips; and white cushions for her teeth. For her iconic halo hair, where she adds a new stripe each year, like how trees grow a ring yearly, it is represented by customized banners.

I did the free Switch 2 upgrade. TBH, this is going to be a little confusing. Shouldn’t the Switch 2 edition at least have a Switch 2 logo? They have exactly the same in Icon.

Super excited to play tomorrow. Just a bit confusing.

With how long the Sift update has been in development, do you think it could end up having more features than any of the 4 huge updates?

I've seen posts in Twt that the next snapshot is gonna be the last one with new features in it. I'm not pushing these rumours as being true, but if that's the case, then its either one major feature being added or they could surprise us with lots of features majority of the community asks.

Imagine if they added snow brick/blockset, calcite blockset, iceologer, and penguins in one snapshot, that would be crazy.

Realistically, no, that's not going to happen I think. However my money is on calcite blockset though. With snow bricks, it's likely to happen, but since we already got packed ice bricks, I don’t personally think it's happening because if so, they would've added this last snapshot when packed ice blockset were introduced.

With iceologer, it seems unlikely, but they could probably saving the best for last. Penguins... no offense but I think it's going to happen, but some other time.

But who knows, if the next snapshot for snowy drop is going to be the last with brand new features in it, I'm more intrigued of what's going to be the next snowy feature.

With the newest update both colored wool and concrete have gotten stairs and slab variants. Those are amazing additions for builders!
However I feel like Mojang forgot about terracotta which is a shame because the colored terracotta variants provide different, more muted colors that are great for building too (see second image).

I’ve added a feature to my personal server that allows you to restore the health of corals using a water bottle.

I think this should be added to vanilla Minecraft.

It's the 27th now and I thought it would come out at midnight in my timezone like most games on Switch? Do we know an exact time?

Any suggestions for the what we should put around the cathedral

Vanilla btw

Since my previous post was removed for using AI, I wanted to share my Blackwood idea again. This time, I recreated all the blocks in Blockbench and wrote the text myself.   
  
Last time, I only used AI because I wanted to post my idea as soon as possible and because I’m lazy. AI did not generate the idea. Sorry for the 'AI slop' in my previous post! 
  
Idea:  

I think African blackwood or Ebony could be added as a rare tree in the savanna biome, with a full wood set including (stripped) logs, planks, stairs, slabs, fences, doors, trapdoors,... 

Blackwood would fill an existing gap in the current wood types, especially for gothic architecture, dark wood interiors, and roofing.  

African blackwood (Mpingo) grows naturally across African savannas, so it could fit perfectly in Minecraft's savanna biome. Its black color would also make it a unique addition to the existing wood types.  

Here are some of its possible features:  

- Rare generation: Much harder to find than acacia trees.  

- Lower sapling drop rate: Around 2.5% chance, comparable to jungle trees.  

- Slower growth: Takes longer to grow than other trees.  

- Higher hardness: Slightly slower to chop than other wood types.  

- Higher blast resistance: More resistant to explosions than other wood types.  

- Higher fire resistance: More fire-resistant, but not completely fireproof.  

- Unique sound: A higher-pitched sound when chopping it because of the wood's density.  

I've included some concept images of what the logs, stripped logs, and planks could look like.  

What do you think? Would Blackwood or Ebony fit in the savanna, or would you prefer to see it in a different biome?
