Day 115: Plans and other stuff.





Treasure billy, treasure!




Its the cooooooiiiiiinnnn! Kind of symbolic if you get what i mean.
I'm glad Shoggoth hasnt managed to eat or dissolve it or anything, and damn, look how shiny it is. "Shoggoth, cleaning your coins, today!"

Anyway, i think it's time to add a chicken bone soon, or another small animal bone. I mean, it managed to eat egg shell, slow but steady.
I'll have to ask around at a few butchers, but they probally won't miss the bones. And if they are unclean bones, well, that's what Carpet Beetle larva and Shoggoth are good for. And with an huge amount of luck there is a blood stem cell or two in the bone marrow.

It's growing warmer outside so I might try and take over the shed this week and make it my new "base of operations." And seeing as it's the end of the month, i should go shopping soon.
Seeing as whatever i buy is refunded by google soon anyway... I still want my Pincode letter though.

EDIT: Have permission to use both the garden and the shed now. Poor garden and shed...

Looking kind of funky there Shoggoth:

Tried cleaning the upper sides just a little bit, i suppose it worked out but Shoggoth is still growing way too big.




Stuff keeps floating in circles in this... stuff, really, drinking that would probally be lethal as fuck.

And don't you love how, well, plain it looks?



And in today's weather forecast: Snow, snow, snow!

The white is growing back. And if i would put Shoggoth outside, there is bound to be more white again like this.





Oh, and if the google stuff works out; Consider Grimer officially planned again.
I will use some of the liquid layer from Shoggoth as a base substance and then use the materials that i wouldn't dare putting in Shoggoth. That means Grimer is also in way more risk of being bleached to death, while Shoggoth is in no danger at all.

Ads stuff again.

Regular update coming, later, college and shit goes first.

It will take a while until i receive a letter from google including the pin that i need to start getting the actual payment on the 15th of a month.


I hope i get the letter before the 15th of april because otherwise:

For this month.

EDIT: Did a little research and despite the counter being reset (it does that daily so that you get a daily income menu instead of total per month) they won't take the money for themselves, It's just being held back in a total. I can't access the earning/payment history tab though, but yesterday i already had enough for a big pot of creatine and some other stuff. Smile!

If this goes on like this and works out in the end, i might need to revive the Grimer idea.

I'm still a sell out though.

EDIT2:
Please don't get too excited with the clicking.

Day 114: Great succes.













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.

That whippersnappering search bar and linkbox

Google adsense was approved.
I am now a sell out.
Which will eventually help me get stuff like creatine.

Regular update below this.

EDIT: looks like i did get "congratulations you won!" links. Oh well...
EDIT2: Ohh they change, exciting. This is like a digital cup of mold, except they are ads which make people sad.

EDIT3: I didnt know adblock pro was so pro.

Day 113: Famine.

Good job Blogspot, my pictures won't upload properly. Had to resize and embed the pictures manually.
If these pictures don't load anymore or are offline, please tell me in comments.

I just realised i haven't fed Shoggoth in days, so i'm making a nutrient-cocktail and getting some bread for it after the update. And what kind of update?
Everyone loves close taken picture updates.





Mold art.







I love this kind of mold so much, when you flash it, it absorbs and reflects all the light. And it's growing from inside like hair. And it just looks so fuzzy. If it wasn't for the hazardous for health thing i would stroke it. Though they might be hard and breakable and i wouldn't want that.
And look at that weird eye on the lower part of the picture.

EDIT: Oh shit, the hairs are covered in spores.












If you look at the white, dry, hill like things on the upper part of these picture you will notice that it looks like it moved around. Which is quite creepy to my opinion. And i poked it with a pencil, and it's very, very hard. Remember those rubber bouncing balls? It's kind of like that. You could make rubber slugs out of this to shoot at protestors.












See that middle layer? It's like puke. But unlike puke, i'm actually really, really curious how this would look but the black/white rooftop doesn't show that. And you could say that that is the House of Mutated Carpet Beetles. I didn't see that the middle layer was growing so big.
Shoggoth alltogether is almost one litre now.

I'd inject food into the middle layer, but i don't want to crush the upper layer and even worse, make holes for the bugs. The bugs are also ruining my option of tipping shoggoth over a bit and just leaking out some of the liquid to reduce the size.

Small notice;

Regular update coming later today.
This is just a small amount of bullshit about adsense. Feel free to ignore it.

As has been suggested in comments and I myself was wondering it myself, i'm going to try to get adsense on the blog by google (haters gotta hate) despite how much i hate ads. Stuff like kreatine isn't cheap and well, I just have absolutely no income at all at the moment.

I am now officially a sell out whore. Well actually i will be trying, it won't be those annoying gif and flash "you have won 100000 dollar!" ones but google ones.

I now have to wait 1-2 days for google's approval.

Day 112: ZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Just checked Shoggoth and there was barely any change, boring. It only looks a bit more hairy/fuzzy than usual but that's it. I'm considering moving it outside again now the weather is better especially since the envirnoment change can cause some pleasing results for Shoggoth.

And the bugs wont come crawling out, since they are afraid of light, or at least they won't climb out into the house. And maybe some other insect decides to dump his eggs in to. As long as it's not maggots.

The smell is getting a bit worse to.

I don't know what else to type right now.
