Morality of joking about the people you hate dying/committing suicide. Mostly committing suicide.

Yes I know that joking about real people and joking about cartoons is drastically different. I just need you to know that I'm talking about both. It's just hard to find real life examples that aren't political.

In the case of fiction, specifically with Jax, I think it misses the point. Jax isn't just a punching bag for people to feel good punching on because said punching bag is a horrible person. She's a tragedy about what happens when you don't get help. You're not supposed to feel happy that she basically committed suicide.

There are a lot of people who need help who are also assholes. Joking about their guilt and poor mental state seems in poor taste because it's not making fun of her for being a bully, it's making fun of her for being suicidal.

And it also often seems like over punishment too. It's like saying "I'm so glad my high school bully got beaten by his dad frequently."

In both real life and fiction, people have every right to hate Jax and the people/characters like Jax. But I feel like this kind of hatred gets others caught in the crossfire, doesn't address the actual issues with the person/character, misses the point (for characters), and generally encourages "giving up" on or punishing people rather than trying to help them. Which isn't a healthy mindset to have.

[Russian > English] Saw Russian while playing the English version of a Minecraft mod

I tried using a translator and got back gibberish for each word. I'm pretty sure it's "Ашту, ьфниу нщгэку тще ерфе ищкштрю" but I might've typed it wrong.

I'd also like to know what each individual word means, if that's not an issue.

I love the ability to code in varied appearances instead of making a lot more assets

Breath of the Wild: Contains a program similar to Mii maker that gives all 413 NPCs unique appearances without creating 413 individual models.

Minecraft: Has 136+ different possibilities for leather armor colors despite only having 1 set of leather armor sprites. The in-game code changes the color of the sprites instead of having multiple different leather armor sprites, so the possibilities for colors is practically endless. Similar to a pallet swap in a way.

Pallet swaps: In pixel art games, many programs have the ability to change an asset's colors without needing a whole new sprite sheet

How should I write two characters who are the same person dealing with self harm and addiction?

Basically, I have this series containing two characters: Monty (he/him) and Cyto (she/her). These two characters have separate bodies and actions, but they're still "the same person". If Cyto's eye gets poked, Monty's eye will get poked. Or he'll at least suffer the damage in some way or another.

They represent two sides of the same person. Self harm is reflected as them abusing each other. The abuse also contains sexual abuse, as sexual addiction/hypersexuality is presented as one of the characters sexually assaulting the other.

The characters do have to stay together. Since they're the same person, if one of them got removed, the other would also get removed, or be left as an empty shell of a person. Separating/killing the other person would represent suicide or a person somehow taking out chunks of their identity and throwing it away.

The problem with these two aspects is that having them both creates a story where a person has to stay with their rapist. Living with a sex addiction is better than committing suicide. But I don't think that sentiment is properly shared when it's told through an abuse victim needing to fix their partner instead of leaving.

I'm 75% sure that writing the story like this is offensive. I don't know how to rewrite this that still contains: "treat yourself how you'd treat others" (by representing part of "yourself" as others) and hypersexuality without including staying with a rapist as a "good" option.

My girl's a little funky looking. Might be good for an elytra or two. (8062712402295268389)

Also it has a village with a swamp and some kind of plains. Thought it looked cool. I never see swamps ;-;. Also this is bedrock.

Characters with unusual disabilities

What am I even supposed to call this? Fictional disabilities? Odd disabilities? Disabilities that are similar to real life but not quite?

Basically just disabilities that either don't exist in real life (1), or wouldn't be/aren't considered a disability in our real world (2).

(1?) Melvin Sneedly (Captain Underpants): He has a chunk of his brain missing, meaning that he can't comprehend comedy. At all. In any capacity.

(2) Mashle (Magic and Muscles): One of the few people who doesn't have magic in a world where everyone has magic.

(1) Centaurs (Greek Mythology): This one's more of a maybe I guess? A centaur would need special accommodations for things like stairways, beds, and transportation.

I love my silly goofy decorated bones :3

I might end up decorating some more of them. Also while you're here can you tell me if I need specific "driver" bones for an IK/FK switch, or can I just put the driver on any memorable bone?
