Yesterday i threw in a nutrient cocktail, the usual bread, orange juice, sugar, a soft drink, ground vitamin pill and some spit. It covered the entire "roof" like a puddle at first, but Shoggoth has succesfully absorbed almost all of the liquid in half a day. But a brown puddle remains in the old 'Egg Crater'. It kind of looks like, well, never mind. The smell is starting to penetrate my masks again.
Oh and sorry about the quality of the pictures today, They were taken during daytime. The cocktail has had some nice side effects so far, the amount of black sludge has been reduced, most of the solid snow like mold is starting to soften up again, and well, Shoggoth just looked really hungry.
Just like his inhabitants.
The freshly added food lured out the Shoggies.
So here are some fresh, better quality pictures of my little insectoid children.

So cute :3

A little bit worrying; He's sticking on the plastic sides. Though i don't think they would abandon food paradise so easily.
They started crawling after i took the first photo due to the flash, just to confirm that they don't like light.We can be pretty sure that they are carpet beetles now to.
It's like my own little ecosystem in a jar.
Despite everything they are still nasty little buggers though. And we can confirm that they can survive... well, Shoggoth. Then again, so do I. Well, i don't eat Shoggoth that is. Bugs 1 - Thijs 0.
Oh and for the people who missed it, Yes, i'm using lame google ads now to finance things like creatine. (In other words; I'm a poor greedy bastard.) The last time i checked i got around 12 euro already. Which actually suprises me, seeing as i only started about 17-18 hours ago.
If you don't want them use adblock. If you don't care/don't see them and have adblock, feel free to whitelist this golddigger.
And finally;
The doctor called me. He was sick for all these weeks, and guess what?
Headache, breathing problems, tiredness, etc. Exactly the same symptons. Might have catched on from the liquid sample, which would be scary seeing as he uses at least ten times the protection that i do. Either that or there is another Flu that the media will start crying about for a few months and everyone will forget about it later.
I mean, what the hell happened to swine flu? All i hear now is Goat Fever. (i wish i was kidding). Oh wait, SARS, avian flu, MKZ... Any overhyped disease that i forgot?
I talked to him about the bugs, he didn't believe it until he saw the picture.
"There's no way something can survive in that substance down there."
We might have created mutated carpet beetles, gentlemen. Though i doubt it.
Then again, Shoggoth, Kweeksel, and the others did fortify my immune system to.
this sounds fucking awesome.
ReplyDeletei salute you.
Thijs you are a true genius.
ReplyDeleteReal fucking awesome mister.
Nan.

Why so surprised about the money? I clicked the damn adds over 9000 times for the lulz. I click them while I'm waiting for an update (yes I am that sad). And I'm sure I'm not the only one supporting the mold either.
ReplyDeleteAs for the doctor being skeptical, well, while the idea of mutant beetles sounds kickass, he is a doctor of medicine, not an entomologist. What the fuck does he know about bugs, anyway?
In some way, i actually don't want to know. Yugh.
ReplyDeleteIf the bugs are still alive in a few weeks, try to release some back into nature. They are stronger, harder, better, faster...superior beings. You could create an entirely new race!
ReplyDeleteor what do i know i am just a silly anonymous
i'd do it if they were easy to get them out. And maybe it's just the two of them at the moment.
ReplyDeletelol the ads are for mold removal.
ReplyDeleteGet some regular carpet beetles and put them in. See if the survive, or if your bugs are truly superior.
ReplyDeleteGet ready to hit the news, sounds like the doctor was a little freaked out that carpet beetles can survive under a liquid/solid dynamic mold-infested sludge jar...which would also freak me out.
ReplyDelete"Get some regular carpet beetles and put them in. See if the survive, or if your bugs are truly superior."
ReplyDeleteThis.
I'll check some stores if they sell carpet beetle larva as fish food or something...
ReplyDeleteInformation about BedBugs, Mold Removers, and even Candy Molds (made me lol). you sure get some crraazzyy ads.
ReplyDeleteAnd the mero I think about it, the more awesome your name gets. It has T AND a H in it. Fucking badass. How is it pronounced?
also sex with goo
Pronounced as Tice.
ReplyDeleteJust wait a minute. Two creatures. In a paradise. Lacking nothing. With a good being entity looking for them...
ReplyDeleteYou just created your very own insectoid Adam and Eve !
@Anon Holy shit, you're right! Is this one a farce too?
ReplyDeleteYou, sir, just shot an explosive bullet of mindfuck into my mind.
ReplyDeleteShiiiiit. The next time i do something like this i should call it Eden, damn.
Hey, since you already got (essentially) maggots in there. I THINK YOU SHOULD FINALLY PUT A FISH IN THERE. I WILL CLICK YOUR ADS TO OBLIVION IF YOU PLEASE PUT A LIVE FISH IN THERE. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! I'LL DO ANYTHING IT TAKES FOR YOU TO PUT A FISH IN THERE AND FILM THE RESULTS. (don't put it on youtube it will be labeled as animal abuse. :/ ) But no seriously, I will do anything you want if you promise to put that fish in there and film it.
ReplyDeleteYo. FYI, egg white has an enzyme called lysozyme which wipes out Gram positive bacteria. So that's probably why you have something funky going on in the egg crater.
ReplyDeletedon't talk about how you CLICK THE ADS. Google might see and get mad at you for CLICKING THE ADS, since people are not supposed to CLICK THE ADS unless they really want to. please don't abuse the system by CLICKING THE ADS every second. okay? just don't CLICK THE ADS.
ReplyDeleteSorry man but i'm not sure about a fish yet. First got other things planned.
ReplyDeleteAnd well, still the maggot problem. "But you already have carpet beetle larva" well, thos,e at least aren't maggots.
