Day 142: Breaking point.










This was the first thing that i saw when i came home.
I was in a RAAAAAGE mood, but that made it a little better.

So i decided to dig a little below the cream, and well, what i found was...



















That white crap is quite awsome, and it's hard. i moved it around a little with my fork and then it hit me; I just recovered that damn apple.
Incase of zombie/fungi apocalypse: Gather as much apples as you can.

on the upper part of the picture you can see this weird hill of white to, which is made of hundreds of bubbles, probally filled with Gas. They kept bursting and appearing. I think i've found my breathing source.
I threw in a snail that i accidently trampled, and it got stuck into the bubbles and slowly sunk away, poor thing was still alive, but oh well.

The apple however makes me a little sad to.
Shoggoth is a really, really slow eater. Eden is becoming stronger than that already, not to mention that Eden kills way more insects. Shoggoth still looks more awsome though. (And apple's are well, big in comparison to Shoggoth.)

Speaking of Eden, me still being in a rage mood, i went aggresive and just put aside my fears and morals that i had at the start of all of this in one simple motion;










Fuck it.
I have no idea what to expect except a terrible smell, dissaproving comments, and a layer of nasty shit, But who cares, got to endure some shit to deserve that ad money eh?
And honestly, that's not enough meat, i'll take some from my dinner tonight. Let's hope for some chicken. I also threw in little bit of Shoggoth into the mix and, well dog feed and aquarium fertilizer again.

I guess that's goodbye paradise, hello maggot hell. And goodbye rage mood, i feel all fuzzy and warm on the inside now :3.

I still have to get a toy ship as an ark with a picture of a Muk on it and the Mr Yuk logo though.

Day TF141: No inspiration whatsoever.

There was a small problem coming; next week i'll have vacation. And i was going to rome. How the hell am i supposed to update a blog from rome and pay attention to Shoggoth? I don't. And taking a break for a week would make the viewer count drop to 20 or something. I'm staying home.
(Well actually, i'm not going for another more important reason)

Someone commented on putting a Noah's ark into Eden, anyone has any idea's on what kind of an "ark" to put in there? It can be mostly anything, hell im even willing to go get some toy pirate ship just to see if mold would start growing on the plastic. And it probally would if i'd make the plastic wet.

So yeah, as those youtube guys say; "leave an interesting or comment or suggestion in the comment section beloooowwwwwww"

I haven't been able to check up on either Shoggoth or Eden today, and it's getting too dark now so meh. But a day's rest for both seems fine. And, well, i don't really know what to write down right now. Just suggest things like danish pastry and such i guess...

Oh, and.
In two weeks Shoggoth will have lived longer than Kweeksel.

Day 140: The great flood.

As you probally know i can be quite impatient sometimes, but Eden has been slower than necessary, though pretty. But it's time to flood paradise;










When i poured in the first drops of liquid, Eden erupted into a storm of rage; a cloud of spores flew out right into my damn face. So anyway thats freshwater (fish pool), a bit more of that aquarium plant fertilizer, soil and... well, more soil i guess. This is not the second layer but more of a base for that layer. Oh and some plant thing that was floating around, probally algae.




Cream - 1
Orange juice - 0





The cream absorbed the orange juice cocktail it seems, and the crevices's size size has been reduced a little. Also, color change :3.

Not going to do anything special with Shoggoth the coming few days because well, i'd like to see how this works out. Maybe i've thrown in too much orange juice, who knows.

Same goes for Eden until i have an idea how to make the next layer i guess. Anyone has any idea what to make the new layer out of?

Day 139: Dehydration.

Screw the other theories about shrinking cream and crevices; it's just dehydration. (zzzzz)










And not only the top is doing it, Shoggoth in general is doing it. (Thanks, sun!) I wanted to take more pictures but my battery ran out.

So anyway to prevent Shoggoth turning into a barren wasteland of dried out fungi, i'll need to add more liquid to all the layers. Thank god i still have that syringe.

So i went out and grabbed some ingedients to add more liquid to Shoggoth (first i try to dehydrate him and now i do this? yep...) and i found some more chemical stuff used for the aquarium, it was promising at first, it increased the Ph and Kh grade in liquids, (speaking of which, i still have to test the Ph Grade.) but it was also disinfecting so i dismissed it. Instead i decided to go back all to the beginning a bit and add something extra;










Yep. Squeezed out orange juice again. Well actually it is also mixed with the usual Sugar, and a little amount of that fruity milk. If i would add bread it would be Shoggoth in baby form. The syringe is filled with the aquarium fertizilizer combined with... gravy. I have no idea why i inserted gravy, but i did.

First i poked a hole with a stick, injected the syringe's contents into the hole, filled the hole up by moving solid cream on it and then...










Instant color change!
And now to wait till Shoggoth has started to suck up the crap. And yes the syringe cocktail already started leaking out, oh well. I shaked the container a bit to.

And now to Eden; Eden is boring to write about of lately, the only real change of the day;









So i was thinking, what if i would feed Eden again, but instead of just "feeding" him i basicly throw in enough food to build an entire new layer above the old one, like a two story building.
"Yo dawg i heard you like mold so..." Because right now, Eden is pretty and all, but the aquarium fertilizer brown spots haven't even dissapeared yet, he's slower than Cthun.


Goddamnit my fingers smell ALOT like fungi now, the next thing you know i'll be climbing upwards somewhere. Brb shower.

Day 138: And in today's episode of fungi news...

"BREAKING NEWS: A LIVE REPORT WITH THIJS BOERMA. "FUNGI EARTHQUAKES CAUSING CREVICES IN SOLID CREAM SURFACE. MORE AT 11, ONLY ON FUNGI NEWS!"










The crevices are growing. or well, the cream is splitting apart even more and more. It's like there's earthquakes going on in there man, though it's probally due to either one of these things:

The cream has become solid;
1. Shoggoth is leaking gas?
2. Cream being eaten away and thus shrinking in size?
3. Movement?
4. Insects, though i doubt that they would dig like that, but still, possible?
Which is your pick?

i was thinking of adding a little of the usual orange juice again, but i realised how useless that would be, even though Shoggoth's entire body was based on oranges. So in a scavenging mood i found a bottle of this instead;










I know Shoggoth and Eden aren't exactly freshwater aquariums, but the "many vital nutrients" part sold me. I need to stop 'borrowing' things of the people who live in the same house as i do. I threw in a little into both Eden and Shoggoth, and i will throw more doses into Shoggoth the coming next days, Eden is an one timer though;










Those brown stains (picture was taken 4 hours after throwing the nutrients in) are kind of ruining Eden's beauty right now, and Eden is mostly dry while Shoggoth is, well, a pot full of all eating slime.
Which is why i decided to only give more doses to Shoggoth in the coming few days and not to Eden. Let's hope my children are enjoying the meal.
Eden is a really slow eater though, that apple looks like it was only put there yesterday.

Anyway, time to get prepared for party time, have a nice weekend guys!

Day 137: Breathe the pressure

New record of unique visitors in a single day and it is only 5:47 PM.
Turns out someone linked me on reddit; Hello reddit people!

But anyway, let's move on.










The colors are becoming darker again, and brown/yellow liquid is forming on top of the cream. The pink spot has become more visible to, though it could be another color to.
And black stuff that suddenly is op laying on top, but that's probally just soil.

But what really got my attention; When i opened Shoggoth the cream moved like it sighed. You want proof of this? look at the grand canyon forming in the cream.

Close;









And where are those holes coming from anyway, that's slightly more creepy.

I wonder if gas is escaping from those crevices/holes (Would Shoggoth-Gas be toxic?) or that Shoggoth really is actually breathing through that hardened layer of rotting cream. It wouldn't suprise me.
Well, there is one way to find that out;










Bubbles on the upper side.
It seems that putting Shoggoth outside has turned the liquid body from light brown to... this mess. And i'm actually kind of pleased with that.
I have no idea what that white thing is, though it might be cream. Maybe Shoggoth is pulling the cream down into liquid hell to eat it, yeeeeesss....
Well, if only that was true. I still have no idea what it is though.

I checked Eden again to, but there wasn't really much to be seen. I know i wanted Eden to be a slow growing pot but;
Any suggestions on what to throw in in Eden? It needs to be small though.

Day 136: And scream, for the cream.

Because yesterday, i forgot to tell you that i added a little amount of cream to Shoggoth. Which was the best thing i have actually done all week, showing these DELICIOUS, SLOW, RESULTS;










Slow you ask? Yes, because it hasn't turned into liquid hell yet, but damn, it looks good man, like a mold-milkshake. Someone get on making that, fungi taste milkshakes.
I mean i know enough people who would try that, me being the first.
Wait a minute...










Besides the fact that solid brown lump looks nasty as shit, do you notice anything out of the ordinary? Except my bad grammar? Spoilers:

PINK!

If there is a loving god out of there, please let this be the pink bacteria from day... what is it, 75? again, because damn that would be good. Meningitis here i come! And for the brown lump being covered in mold barnacles, i have no idea what it is.
The transparant thing next to it used to be a pill capsule though.







This is delicious.jpg


It's like cupcake glaze, but instead it's being eaten away by rotting death and it is covered in craters which could have been air holes.

And as i said before, i only threw in a little amount of cream, but this isn't "little" anymore, for some reason it kind of grew.

And in other fungal news;









Eden is becoming more green/blue right there. And can you count the amount of dead flies?
And most leaves and stuff like that are now getting covered in fungi or are already brown and rotting away, pretty neat.
