Day 166: And finally... (Part 3) The End.












Shoggoth is now in a better place. The nutrient filled park. Here it can grow without me destroying it's layer all the time. Weather is going to be shitty, but he'll handle it.

It's near some trees and a shrub, out of range from playing children but nearby critter wildlife and plants. i almost completely burrowed the pot but it's still open. I had to climb a fence (do you know how hard that is with Shoggoth in one hand?) to get to that spot but i didn't want random children or dogs finding it seeing what it was starting to to do with me.

Shitty part: My camera's SD card is suddenly blank. As in, empty. It's like Shoggoth erased everything and basicly saying "the world will never know." (Unless i visit it again, which i probally will one time) But for now, it's time to grow that shit natural.

Why is the place behind a fence? Ground water is absorbed at this location.

But anyway. 201 posts, a hundreds of comments, suggestions, facebook comments, questions, emails page visits and doctor visits it's time to say goodbye. What started out as a joke on an imageboard thread turned into this weird project that we've been doing for almost half a year. And this is the most cliché thing to say but i wouldn't have done it without you guys. Thanks alot for the support and interest!

~Hell Goo, Thijs, Pestilence, Etc. You know the drill. <3

Day 166: Part two.

Go to google.
?????
PLAY PACMAN

Went to the garden to check Eden for the last time to, shit has become a zergling hive.










So i'm not dumping this into nature, no, looks like i have passed my final judgement; Exterminatus. Time to grab some bleach and my camera, brb.
Except i had neither bleach or acids available, so i temporary filled it with spiritus and salty water. which is a shitty combination but i guess i'll have to get bleach and crap tomorrow.










Picture related. It should at least kill the maggots and it made some fly or spider go spastic and die really fast. Burn the heretic maggots, burn!
Also, that apple man, that apple.










Anyway i should go out with Shoggoth to the park when it's darker outside. Wish me luck.

I just realised that this is the 200th post.

Day 166: The end is nigh. Part one.

Well that was it folks, goodbye! ...
As you might expect i'm not going to suddenly dissapear after almost half a year of starting out making rotting hell out of food, spawning little spiked maggots, fungi arena fights, biohazard and hundreds of doctor visits; I will be doing final, multiple updates all over the day. Starting off with the usual Shoggoth update like we usually do.










As you can see, Shoggoth still looks the same. So...
First i decided to pull out the "electric wire" with shaky hands and film it. Over exposure? who gives a fuck.



Having pulled that out, Shoggoth looks really dehydrated so i'll add some water (see it as a death row meal) after this.










And it smells so baaaaad. But no liquid to be found either. You are staring into the deep layers of Shoggoth, where things like this spawn;










This looks so... Yes. Just wonderfull.
I'll be adding some water now to prepare Shoggoth for the rest of the day;
I won't be bleaching Shoggoth, i won't burn him either;

To the south of my house there is a park, where all kind of plants and animals are growing happily and children are playing all day long. Basicly, nutrients and bacteria everywhere, including botulin toxin in some parts of the soil thanks to rotting duck corpses. Oh and there's water pipes that go to my city and a village nearby running down there.

Shoggoth will leave the nest and start flying his own path.
So much for part one.

Just wanted to post this:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science_and_environment/10132762.stm

Someone beat me to it! Curse you scientists!

"These could be used in the future to make the most powerful bioweapons imaginable. The challenge is to eat the fruit without the worm."

165: .

Had to move Shoggoth back under the sink thanks to the really strong smell coming back. It's like Shoggoth farted really, really hard. At first i tried to endure it but it nearly made me puke.
Still feel a bit like shit, but i'm recovering.

I haven't checked both pots for obvious reasons. 5 Months of exposing myself to rotting organic matter seems to finally take effect on me. So much for superhuman resistance.

I have no future plans for all of my "children" left. (No, no mice.) I really don't know what to write either. Fuck it, i guess this is coming to an end.

This has to be the shortest update ever.

164: No bleach till Brooklyn.

Turns out that "failed experiment" is basicly a white Shoggoth now.










And yes. It looks this blurry in real life to. Though it could just be my eyes, but whatever. It's a solid chunk of fungi and goo floating on a semi-clear liquid. Deja vu much?
It's kind of odd though, i thought i threw this bottle away? Oh well.
The pink spots look kind of pretty and i have no idea what the yellow blob is.










In the meanwhile, in the black sludge lands of Shoggoth, white fungi is also assaulting the upper layer it seems, supported by the standard issue of brown goo. The fuzzy patch of brown has become goo to.

I shouldn't be suprised by the fact that nothing is changing; I haven't fed them in weeks. I should. Something like one of those Deathrow final meals if shit hits the fan.
Maybe. I don't have the supplies right now though unless you want another boring load of oranges, sugar and bread.
Ofcourse, starvation is also a possibility.

Day 163: Soldiers of a ruined paradise.

The headache seem to have cleared up (tiredness, breathing and vision is still there though.), so i've been thinking...

First off i was considering that my eyes are just getting worse because, i don't know lack of vitamins or being an IT student and staring into a screen all day, but if i remember correctly that would mean i would either be seeing blurry in the distance or up close, and it's pretty much both.

I should do an eye test.

Second; I could throw Shoggoth into Eden.
Either that or find a catapult to launch them into a farmer's field and see what happens, or something in those lines.
I dared to check Eden and the huge brown sludge turned into a blackish solid crusty sludge, which is a bit like what Shoggoth is right now.
I didn't check Shoggoth but i'm pretty sure that little patch of brown hasn't grown so big that it isn't a pile of black sludge eating on white hairy fungi anymore.

Come to think of it i'll go take a picture of Eden;









Damnit. Eden still looks awfully neat.

This probally how Hell looks in the circle of Gluttony, aw man.
In some sick and twisted way it actually looks pretty. I mean look at the consistant texture all over the place and those weird craters. It's also like the sludge actually moved around a little bit.










I can't burn this. Why did i avoid meat at the start of this project again and eggs? Oh right, the never appearing maggots.
There is this gore picture of a man who has been cooked in a bathtub for two weeks straight after having a heart attack floating around the internet and my harddrive, and some amongst you might remember it; the remains had exactly the same colors as this sludge minus the green fungi.










The colors around the apple are different though, and the apple? If it was a mouse or something i'd feel really sorry for it right now. That apple alone is probally worth an entire ecosystem right now.

And that is what Eden might be, a tiny ecosystem in a white plastic bucket.
Never mind about throwing Shoggoth inside of here, Paradise will not be reclaimed.

Nope, I have no idea what to do with the pots either. Or the entire blog.
