That was fun, fun adventuring and finding multiple pyramids and failing miserably to get anything in the mines. Taught Andrius not to feed horses by left clicking. Probably didn't help the relationship as it already hates him.
Mostly retired. Unless you ask or it's something interesting.
RIP Silver.
We went on a long journey together like 2000+ units away from home in one direction and maybe 800 in the other. We found three pyramids and two NPC villages. I even found some Diamond Horse armor.
But Silver was not strong enough to fjord across an ocean after riding all day and night for a few days.
So I made the long boat ride alone.
But I have Diamond Armor now so the next horse
I won't let Prozac tell me to left click
will be super stocky.

Hey, I went on a bit of an adventure myself to get diamonds today. Sadly that failed, and I used a little up (I will replace) but I did find a few cool things. I was going to give a couple of them to Andrius but seems like he wont need them anymore.
(By the way I will probably go for another explore - I went -ve x axis, +ve z axis last time, which way did you go? So I dont get excited by new pyramids to find they had been discovered already...)

Negative X, positive Z? I think? I basically went beyond your house.

Due to the noble sacrifices of Menno, Prozac, and myself, the River House is now equipped with a Brewing Stand and is ready for potion-making!
Sample potions are in the chest.
Menno, thanks for pointing out where Nether Wart could be found.

Took out a small loan of a million diamonds. Will pay y'all back with interest once I set up my mine. Feel free to use my mineshaft if you want, but please, please don't mess up the orderly arrangement of the shafts.
Restructured the spawn house to be zombie-proof using the door trick.
EDIT:
Harvested and replanted crops, built base and mineshaft
There's nothing that says that a fake can't beat the real thing.
You must not imagine that for beings like you and us there can be laughter. The low men laugh, and we envy them. But for us, the higher ones, there is no laughter, only an unending vigil, purely serious, stretching on into the night.
Build a bridge across to the farms since I was tired of walking on a 1 block dirt strand

I have now completely protected the spawn house from rain and monsters with cobblestone!

The new spawn house is a tiny bit uglier, but that's a small price to pay to avoid bats, spider and zombie invasions! Added bonus: there's no longer any rain splashing into the third floor!

I've built a machine that automatically harvests eggs and sugar cane and deposits them into a chest. You do not have to do anything at all. Just check the large chest at regular intervals to see the stacks of eggs and sugar canes grow as if by magic. Sugar canes can be used to make paper -> books -> enchanted books for better equipment, or used to make sugar and combined with the eggs to make cake that can quickly top up your hunger bar in combat. Additionally, since eggs can be used to spawn chickens, this can be used to create a chicken farm despite the lack of chickens near the spawn.
Spoiler: Details
First off, an overview of the farm.
The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell; similarly, the humble chicken is the powerhouse of the farm.
The chicken is suspended here on a couple blocks of water. Because the chicken is programmed to float in water, it won't fall down and escape the little pillar-cage I've built around it. However, it will still(to the best of my knowledge) continue to lay eggs. The eggs will
not
float, and will therefore flow down the little cage and into the water stream below, as depicted here.
The egg then flows downstream and into the hopper, depositing itself neatly in the chest below.
When this happens, it triggers the tripwire strung over the chest, which causes the pistons to extend and knock the tops off the sugar cane, as seen here(I'm standing on the wire). Since only the top blocks are knocked off, the sugar canes do not have to be replanted!
The farm can be found to the west of the spawn house(orientation calculated by a player standing in front of and facing the door), over the stone bridge I built. It's next to the beetroot/carrot/wheat triple square farm.
