I hope everybody had a good holiday weekend! If you haven’t read it due to overlapping BBQ commitments, I’m gonna read from the new encyclical on Artificial Intelligence during my stream in 30min! www.vatican.va/content/leo-...

Thank you again for representing Gamers Outreach, Joe! 🧡 We’re grateful for the support from the Nashville Predators Foundation and excited to help bring a GO Kart to the young patients at at Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital.

Thanks so much to @gamersoutreach.org for asking me to represent them this morning at the 2026 Nashville Predators Foundation Helper Grants check presentation event! The folks at Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt are doing such great work, I was glad to learn more! joehills.net/2026-nashvil...

My latest HermitCraft episode is out, and it's a weird one! It features recommendations for two books, Operation Bounce House and Nonviolent, as well as some wild interior decorating innovations for my shop! Cub and Tango also stop by! youtu.be/wKW2uQwGW3A

Thanks so much to @parnassusbooks.bsky.social for hosting @mattdinniman.bsky.social in Nashville last night! The interview by @maudie.bsky.social was hilarious and my spouse and I really appreciate you accommodating attendees with mobility issues during the signing! A great time all around!

Starting my birthday subathon on the hour!

New VOD: Blood on the Clocktower youtube.com/live/9uOj40i...

By 4 p.m., the NAACP filed in Davidson County Chancery Court for an emergency injuction against the maps. A link to the full filing has been added to our story.

Happy Tuesday! My search for a human skull comes to a head in an ancient city! Also, I show off some item frame and armor stand magic to Cleo and False! youtu.be/8GEvx-HMqWw

Day 05 of Hermit-A-Day May and today is JoeHills. I wanted to get his signature glasses and pay homage to his theme this season with a little clapperboard. I will say I think the colors are a bit off in this drawing but I still like how he turned out. @joehills.net #hermitaday #joehillsfanart

Made a little visit to Beaman park and made some bird (and chipmunk) pals.

My latest episode of HermitCraft is now live ad-free at: youtu.be/oO8gMGN1Y-s Join me as I attempt to stock my bone shop and build a 12-foot tall skeleton in my front yard, despite distractions from my pals Cub, Scar, iJevin, and Etho!

@danielahorwitz.bsky.social I love your newsletter, and saw that you wanted our opinion on the new website, so here's my solicited opinion: OMG THANK YOU. When I wanted to talk about items from your newsletter on my show before, I couldn't link the e-mail easily, but the website solves that problem!

Woodpecker pal.

Cutting stream short due to post-storm power fluctuations. Hopefully tomorrow goes better!

Setting up my gaming and coloring table for this weekend’s Gamers Outreach Charity event! The schedule is at live.hermitcraft.com

The HermitCraft charity stream weekend benefitting Gamers Outreach starts on Saturday, and Nate Jones of Northstar Guitars has been creating a beautiful custom guitar for us to play, sign, and auction! youtu.be/KQzgtvuH3Co?...

I’m still scrambling a bit after the winter storm that hit us earlier this year, so this is some welcome and appreciated compassion from the federal government! www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs...

Thanks so much to everyone who helped make today’s HermitCraft / @gamersoutreach.org Gamers For Giving schedule announcement and world tour special! No stream from me tonight so I can recover, but this afternoon’s VOD can be found at: youtu.be/5PUWryyHNEo

I understand why smaller electronics that require smaller packaging for shipping are more environmentally-friendly, but if Apple could put a little hovercraft motor and skirt into every AirBuds case so they didn’t fall and hit the floor and throw the Airbuds out two diff ways, that’d be a slam dunk.

My latest episode is now live! Conversations with an arsonist (GoodTimesWithScar)! Nautilus Racing Week 5! — HermitCraft 11: ep 24 youtu.be/GGQnbTveecY

CRAFD

Just saw a kid on campus wearing a “Class of 2029” tshirt and felt my bones crumble to dust

No streams tonight or tomorrow because I'm off to Tennessee Game Days, but you can catch up on my latest season of HermitCraft with this playlist: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis... If you enjoy my work and wanna chip in toward my expenses, tips are always welcome via paypal.me/joehills

Happy Saturday! It's a big day for Minecraft... I'll be streaming a Patreon parade float build contest in just over three hours, and my latest HermitCraft episode is live now! youtu.be/MGL7WHBcSRg

We are live on youtube discussing inbound severe weather. Join us! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oi6F...

Just saw Project Hail Mary on IMAX. I wasn’t previously familiar with Ryan Gosling’s work, but had loved Sandra Hüller in Toni Erdmann. Both of them are both very fun in this! I also felt like the writer, Drew Goddard, compressed the novel fairly well given the constraints. Strongly recommend.

A Tornado Watch will likely be issued for us within the next hour. Forecast remains on track, with damaging straight-line winds being the main threat, an isolated tornado possible. ETA still ~10-11p. Stay connected and have a way to wake up/know where your safe place if a warning is issued for you.

Tonight's stream has been cancelled due to incoming inclement weather. Given the extant damage from the last ice storm, it would be folly to assume we won't lose power in the next couple hours. Maybe go watch the new episode I published today instead?

Week 3 of the Nautilus Racing League, plus my underseas-themed office decor improvements are live at: youtu.be/6Wf9Gia-hhc

Enjoy nautilus racing? Cubfan135 has hosted a couple races so far, and I've got my POV in today's video: youtu.be/TVrVW7Z0UKc

Please visit library.nashville.gov for more information. We look forward to seeing you and serving you at the Main Library!

Nashville Public Library main downtown branch finally has a tentative reopening date (March 30) after nine months closed. From the @nashvillebanner.bsky.social:

Happy Sunday morning! I'm in the editing bay early on my upcoming Nautilus Race episode, so while I'm working on that I can listen to @zombiecleo.bsky.social's guest appearance on Arif_A's Blood On The Clocktower stream! Check my pal Cleo out right now at: www.twitch.tv/arif_a_

I've assembled a rough proof-of-concept for my wind-charge/climbing wall mini-game on HermitCraft 11! Welcome to Breezedasher! youtu.be/IbLjwnQ5PU4

I'm personally upset that the executive branch is waging a war without asking me, so I can understand why members of the legislative branch feel even more justified in their displeasure. apnews.com/live/live-up...

Joe Hills is always at the forefront of cutting edge technology. By not cutting you with the edge of technology.

Now that you mention it...I don't recall ever buying an NFT from you. Great work Joe!

Remember when I didn’t try to sell you NFTs and then you didn’t have to be mad at me about it later? Good news, I’m doing that again... but with newer technology this time!

Good evening, everyone! I tried to keep this video below 30 minutes, but so many Hermits stopped by my Mardi Gras float, we ran a few minutes long! I hope you like it anyway! youtu.be/EC4DNHdsHsM

Enjoy my voice acting? I'm going live now with Hades II voice-acting practice and leading a discussion about how to bridge these sort of streams toward book-on-tape projects that could be more lasting at: twitch.tv/joehills

Good news for creators who make merch from the Supreme Court this morning! This ruling is going to clear a path for my business to expand over the next few months. Stay tuned! www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

My next ep with the Hermits' reactions to my Mardi Gras float is still in the editing bay this morning, so if you're looking for something fun to watch, I strongly recommend BDubs' latest ep. I loved the way he sketched out his design on paper before building it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_LS...

Happy Mardi Gras and Lunar New Year! Let's build a parade float that dispenses dispensers, if we don't get too distracted working with Gem and crew on the big group nether tunnel buildout! youtu.be/epoATDqjJDQ
