listen gallifrey is a nightmare death planet I have to believe that time lords can be easily converted back into terrifying apex predators if they spend a long enough time outside. like how domesticated pigs will revert to wild ones within a few generations

not to be another donations post but you may remember how over the summer we had massive amounts of plumbing problems and other unexpected moving costs? well. after proceeding to work every single hour available to me for six months, take no holidays whatsoever, and budget the hell out of every aspect of my life, I was actually on track to pay everything back and maybe have a little bit of wiggle room by the time summer came around!

and then we got a call from the vet about routine labs saying that if we didn't take Suzy in to an emergency specialty hospital immediately, she would die within in a week, she might die anyways if we took her there, but it was our only chance to have a few more months with her. after an extremely difficult household discussion, we decided that we needed to do as much as we could for her. she's been a beloved member of the family for 18 years. we were not going to abandon her in her hour of need.

with two days at the specialty hospital, the prognosis was better than we could have possibly hoped! the most important thing is she does not have heart problems at all, which means that we can treat her chronic kidney disease with normal IV fluids and with careful treatment she could easily be with us for years to come. the timely intervention also may or may not have saved her from acute kidney failure too, we'll know when we go back to the vet on Wednesday to get her blood checked where her levels have stabilized at.

two days at the specialty hospital means we are also down $3652 , and no longer are on track to pay back everything by July when it comes due unless a couple of uncertain things going forward Go Right, I do not trust everything to Go Right, and we're also still uncertain about what long-term treatment going forward is going to cost.

I still have my ko-fi and my patreon, but honestly, I'm aware that everything is tight for everyone always and there are also a lot of causes that need money right now and in the face of that "hey my family went super out on a limb to try to save our cat and would love some help not falling off" feels kind of shallow. but like. not to sound dumb or like a youtuber or podcaster, but, like. honestly I think the Most Helpful Thing that anyone could do for me right now is take a fucking HelloFresh link that will send you a "free" box for cost-of-shipping ($7ish?) if you Sign Up For An Account that you can then cancel Immediately After The Box Has Shipped and Never Give Them Any More Money Than That and get Six To Ten Meals Out Of It, and for getting someone to "sign up", they will give me a free box too. like. if 13 people are willing to take a link then I don't need to worry about food for the next three months. which would be. HUGE.

so I guess.... dm me if you want a link? otherwise expect to see a lot of promotion of my writing/ patreon as I scramble the hell to try to make this money up

Oh i wonder if I could just plant host plants for butterflies in my area .. I think getting butterflies to my balcony may be easier than attracting birds to the balcony.

[myloveforhergoeson]

i'd love to read some good ol' hockey romance novels but idk where to start lol; would you happen to have any recommendations? (it's totally cool if not!!)

YES OMG ok but something you must understand about me is that all of my book recommendations come exclusively from booktok or instagram so please take this with a grain of salt. i like them dumb, stupid, cliche, and smutty!

i am very new to the hockey romance genre, so i only have two books that i have read as of now to recommend, but i've got three on my to be read list so i can talk about those too <3

the one i just finished is called behind the net by stephanie archer and friend... god... i thought this one was just going to be just like pwp but there was plot and it was good and had me actually shocked something so interesting popped up in this book bc i had expected something completely different. it centers around jamie, a hockey player (goalie) for a fake team called the vancouver storm who trades his life playing for a team in new york to move home and take care of his mother after a series of mental health crises. he's a bit mean, a little arrogant, but he is mostly and above all... say it with me... MISUNDERSTOOD. god i eat this shit up. his counterpart is a young woman named pippa who just got out of a pretty one sided (read: slightly emotionally abusive) relationship with the only guy she'd ever dated. her ex is a pretty famous musician and it's her dream to write and record her own album one day, but after the break up and a little bit of a traumatic experience with her ex and his manager, she's not quite sure that's the right choice for her. she's very sweet, determined, and overall someone i found to be a very interesting character. anyway, she ends up as his assistant, chaos ensues, things happen that i won't spoil, but i enjoyed it very much.

(he calls her songbird a lot and though i do not have the claim on the pet name every time he said it my mind immediately went rames rames rames rames like a dog chasing after a squirrel)

i've got a little journal where i keep track of all the books i'm reading and i gave it a 3/5 stars on quality of writing, 5/5 stars on the strength of the characters, and a 4/5 on the plot. and my own extra rating, 4/5 on the spice scale

also! the author is writing a series that includes other members of the team and some minor characters from the first novel! the next one comes out in a few days and i can't wait to pick it up!

the first book i read out of the hockey romance genre is a book called icebreaker by hannah grace - this one was pretty popular when it came out and many people have many opinions on it. here are my own which are very general because i read it almost a year ago

the summary of the book is a little misleading, the main conflict is supposed to revolve around the captain of a fake college hockey team (nate) and a figure skater (anastasia) who's shooting for olympic gold having to share an ice rink after the one the figure skaters use is put out of commission. long story short, anastasia blames nate, but they're put in a bit of a forced proximity situation that lasts like... five chapters max. the rest is them figuring out their feelings for each other yada yada which is fine and i enjoyed but it was not what i thought the book would mainly be about. so, personal warning there lol. this one is a bit closer to pwp, but both of them have goals they want to accomplish and they help each other through that. i liked stassie a lot and found her to be an interesting character - watching her fall for nate was very sweet and i think i would have enjoyed it even more if i really liked him. he was just kind of mid to me with his only two personality traits being rich and team captain. but also, as a college student myself, i liked the atmosphere of the school they attended, the dynamic between stassie and the other players on the team as she slowly got to know them, and the way both nate and stassie worked to better themselves in order to be with each other!

in my journal i gave the quality of writing 3/5, the strength of the characters a 3/5 and the plot a 2/5 (it would have been 4/5 but i HATED the epilogue. if you read this book do not read the epilogue your life will be so much better without it) and my own special 3/5 on the spice scale

this one is also a series involving the other players on the team! the second book came out a few months ago and i'm planning to read it soon. it's been sitting on my shelf for ages.

i would recommend behind the net over icebreaker, but both were enjoyable to me!

on my hockey romance tbr:

the graham effect by elle kennedy

wildfire by hannah grace

the fake out by stephanie archer

but, i am a well-rounded (romance) reader so if you'd like to know my favs or other books im reading or like reviews just lmk... i'm slowly turning this blog into one where i just share whatever i want instead of it being focused toward my story LOL

[quidcumque]

Fuck me, so I got into Stardew mods, right? On this my second modded run, I add LoveofCooking and pretty much the whole PPJA suite. Amongst others, but let’s focus here

BECAUSE I ENJOY COMPLETIONISM, I want to get Perfection from Qi, right? Requiring all shipped things, all cooked things, etc

There’s shit you CAN’T GET in the game but are REQUIRED for Perfection. When I say “can’t get” I mean either the recipe is broken, there ISN’T a recipe, or there isn’t a recipe AND you can’t buy the fucking thing. I don’t code yet, but I can adequately poke shit until it works, so I went into the various .jsons to figure it the fuck out. SUCCESSFULLY, much to my satisfaction

Buuuuuuut at least for the PPJA stuff, there’s no section I can find anywhere to post my solutions for whomever else is losing their mind? Maybe there’s a discord I’m ignoring, but on Nexus the mod authors took away the posts/bugs tabs, and I didn’t see any comment sections on any of the, like, five or eight semi-defunct wikis and githubs and everything. Love the PPJA stuff, it’s a massive endeavor. Probably stripped out the interaction options because they have enough to do, but it definitely leaves the users in a “figure it out or get fucked” situation

So anyway here’s some of my fuckin notes, added as I find and figure them out

”Broken” = recipe / producer rules exist in .json, but can’t be used in-game (for machines, sometimes because of duplicate InputIdentifiers)

”Missing” = recipe / producer rules straight don’t exist in .json, but item is required for Shipping or Cooking perfection. You can tell what these are by using LookUpAnything (or checking every Objects folder, if you hate yourself) (Updated w/ more fixes) PPJA - ARTISAN VALLEY

Sorbet Machine -- go into the PFM folder to the ProducerRules.json

BROKEN: Strawberry Dragon Fruit Fruit Sorbet, Dragon Fruit Sorbet

swap duplicate InputIdentifier and one of its AdditionalFuels. Make sure all InputIdentifiers are unique

MISSING: Mango Passion Fruit Fruit Sorbet

copy/paste one of the working rules and change out the InputIdentifier/AdditionalFuels. Use item description and/or culinary judgement for ingredients

Ice Cream Machine -- this ain’t the mod’s fault, but the 3rd party Documentation erroneously lists banana sapling as an ingredient for Banana Ice Cream, but you just need a damn banana. IQ of lots but that took me WAY too long to figure out

Keg / Still -- go into the PFM folder to the ProducerRules.json

BROKEN: Cauim

move this to Still section, change “Keg” to “Still”    {        "ProducerName": "Keg",        "InputIdentifier": "Cassava",        "InputStack": 1,        "MinutesUntilReady": 2360,        "OutputIdentifier": "Cauim",        "Sounds": ["Ship"],    },

Various -- go into the JA folder, Objects folder, relevant item folder, object.json items needed for the Shipping collection that don’t have a recipe BECAUSE THEIR INGREDIENTS DON’T EXIST YET.

MISSING: Carolina Reaper Extract, Ghost Pepper Extract, Poblano Extract, Scotch Bonnet Extract, Serrano Extract

add this to the line after recipe, adjusting From/Price as needed "CanPurchase": true, "PurchaseFrom": "Gus", "PurchasePrice": 1000,

PPJA - FRESH MEAT

DNA Sequencer -- go into the PFM folder to the ProducerRules.json

BROKEN: Chicken DNA, Duck DNA

either: change OutputProbability from 1 to .5 

or: remove this from select Chicken/Duck input options, using a list of Vanilla item codes to figure out InputIdentifiers (I took it off duck feather & void egg):        "AdditionalOutputs": [        {            "OutputProbability": 1,            "OutputIdentifier": "Bird DNA",        }, ],

Recipes -- go into the JA folder, Objects folder, relevant item folder, object.json

BROKEN: Barbecue Sausage, Beast n’ Onion Handpie, Chicken Nuggets, Chippy Curry, Cottage Pie, Fish and Chips, Phoenix Au Vin, Schnitzel, Spaghetti Bolognese, Sweet and Sour Pork with Rice, Sweet n’ Sour Bites, Teriyaki, Venison Handpie, 

either: add this line after PurchasePrice, adjusting requirements if needed "PurchaseRequirements": ["HasCookingRecipe Batter", "y 3",],

or: add missing comma after quotes in PurchaseRequirements (or at end of PurchaseRequirements line)

or: add this line above PurchaseFrom (if the IsDefault line is there, replace with this)        "CanPurchase": true,

or: make sure the brackets above PurchaseFrom are }], not },],

BROKEN: Roasted Fowl

just replace all lines between Count and NameLocalization with this (it’s all sorts of fucked up)        }],        "PurchaseFrom": "Gus",        "PurchasePrice": 2000,        "PurchaseRequirements": ["HasCookingRecipe Batter", "y 3",],    },    "NameLocalization":    {

BROKEN: Tonkatsu

same as above, replace all lines between Count and NameLocalization with this        }],        "CanPurchase": true,        "PurchaseFrom": "Gus",        "PurchasePrice": 2000,        "PurchaseRequirements": ["HasCookingRecipe Batter", "y 4",],    },

FRESH MEAT FOR BUG NET

DNA Sequencer -- in ProducerRules.json

BROKEN: every single goddamn one

for each, replace “Critter Cage - ” with “Critter Cage: ”

fucking hell

MISSING: Critter DNA

where appropriate (I did everything except birds), add this after Sounds line        "AdditionalOutputs": [        {            "OutputProbability": .5,            "OutputIdentifier": "Critter DNA",        }, ],

PPJA - EVEN MORE RECIPES

Cooking - go into the JA folder, Objects folder, item folder, object.json

MISSING: Black Coffee, Milky Coffee, Milky Strawberry Juice, Peach Milk, Pathos Cookie, Cola can purchase product from Gus, but recipe itself doesn’t exist. Needed for Cooking perfection

replace Recipe line through PurchasePrice line with the following. Edit Ingredients/From/Price as needed (this was Pathos Cookie)    "Recipe":    {        "ResultCount": 1,        "Ingredients": [            {                "Object": 246,                "Count": 1,            },            {                "Object": 260,                "Count": 1,            },            {                "Object": "Mint",                "Count": 1,            },        ],        "CanPurchase": true,        "PurchaseFrom": "Gus",        "PurchasePrice": 700,            },  

BROKEN: Lemon Pie, Meuniere, Halloumi Burger, Salmon Fillet

either: add missing comma after quotes in PurchaseRequirements

or: add this line above PurchaseFrom (if the IsDefault line is there, replace with this)       "CanPurchase": true,

**Halloumi Burger, might need to delete “Bread” from PurchaseRequirements, leaving just “Halloumi” (I edited several things, so not sure what all fixed it, but “Halloumi Bread” isn’t an actual recipe, so requiring it means you’ll never meet that requirement)

LOVE OF COOKING

Various -- go to assets --> (eg)NettlesPack --> Objects --> (eg)Nettle Tea --> object.json

MISSING: Nettle Tea, Cider, maybe others?

change “CanPurchase” to true (default.json in i18n folder says you learn how to brew Nettle Tea as a cooking skill level-up bonus, NO EFFING CLUE how to make that not glitched. Game currently requires it for Shipping, not Cooking)

FORAGE OF FERNGILL

Kombucha Jar --  go into the PFM folder to the ProducerRules.json

BROKEN: Salty Kombucha, Sour Kombucha

replace ContextTags in the InputIdentifiers with object names or vanilla Item IDs

duplicate entire entry w/ new InputIdentifier to have multiple possible inputs

How the writing of the next chapter of 'A cave like a net' is going, you ask ?

Every time I scratched what I was doing and rewrote it entirely, I left myself a little word of encouragement in my writing doc :

I think I'm on the right track with this last one :D

Haven't posted the gatitos in a while. They still need to be kept separate 🙃 but i hope we're going somewhere with the clicker training

[iamthescalesofjustice]

seen people post about lost johns cave ep being weird and scary not just bc of content but bc of mystery and how/why it doesnt quite fit the paradigm that developed later but 1) thats exactly why i like the early stuff before things started getting more defined and delineated and 2) even if you want to press it flat with that categorization heres a reasonably solid framework to do so by: one was a potential/budding avatar of the dark, the other of the buried. two enter, one leaves. avatars of the dark can resist the effects of the eye to some extent, explaining the lies/omissions in the statement.

Pretty Cure and Crossover Quest All-Stars lore for @geckosquid, @bergeronprocess, @mag1cal-b0y, @faith3231, @hiya-im-mary, and @sparkingspider

The whole of the Pretty Cure legacy prior to the Hirogaru Sky Cures and the Inaka Musume Cures have Ranger Keys in Earth-13’s continuity. Their creator and their intended purpose are a mystery, but the Super Mega Force Rangers and the Gokaigers have utilized them to great effect. The keys give suits in the colors of the cure they represent when a man uses them; this relieves Troy in particular because he doesn’t know how he feels about wearing a dress. The Pretty Cure keys are used predominantly by the aforementioned teams’ pink and yellow rangers, but the other rangers use them on occasion; one example of this is their use of the Kira Kira A La Mode Cures’ keys.

The Cures represented by the keys, on the other hand, are trying to find the meaning of their existence; Captain Marvelous encouraged the pursuit of that knowledge, as he believes that it’s a natural want.

Mobilate Calls:

“Futari Wa Precure!”

“Max Heart!”

“Splash Star!”

“Yes! Precure 5!”

“GoGo!”

“Fresh Precure!”

“HeartCatch Precure!”

“Suite Precure!”

“Smile Precure!”

“DokiDoki!”

“HappinessCharge Precure!”

“Aloha!”

“Bomber Girls Precure!”

“Merci!”

“Wonderful Net Precure!”

“Go! Princess Precure!”

“Maho Tsukai!”

“Kira Kira - A La Mode!”

“Hugtto!”

“Star Twinkle Precure!”

“Healin’ Good Precure!”

“Tropical-Rouge Precure!”

“Delicious Party Precure!”

“Inaka Musume!”

Randall too sighed with relief when this welcomed warmth, a little smile crossing his thin lips as he was greeted with the coziness of kitchen, to say nothing of the myriad of scents dancing in his nose, both savory and sweet, those delicious main courses, followed swiftly by those delightful desserts...his stomach growled a little as he observed his choices, wondering what he might have tonight.

He loved the options he had in the kitchen, the wide variety of dishes on display-compared to how he ate as a boy, he ate like a king thanks to the café, enjoying far more foods than he ever had in his youth, dishes beyond his wildest imagination back then. He used to watch the carnies eat in the evenings, smelling the smells and wondering what the foods were like, how they tasted compared to the scraps tossed at him (mostly old fruit and vegetables, maybe a little bread if he was lucky), yearning to know what it was like...and now, he could say he knew.

He remembered the early days of life at the opera, and his realization that all these delectable goods were available to him: Being so starved then, he grabbed the first two or three plates before him and scarfed them down, hardly stopping to savor each bite-but being so rich and flavorful, he hardly needed to stop and think about it, the spices and seasonings embracing his tastebuds like a warm hug, filling his stomach to the point where he felt like he couldn’t move for quite a while afterwards, but it was so, so worth it...he’d heard the phrase “my compliments to the chef!” be spoken by one of the patrons, and he would repeat that phrase in a note to the kitchen; much like the one written to Holloway, scribbled in a shaky, childish scrawl, all misspelled and everything...but with a generous tip; further compliments to the kitchen staff. He never missed the opportunity to tip-it seemed like the nice thing to do.

As he helped himself to a small plate of chicken confit and a slice of hazelnut dacquoise (he was disappointed there were no berry desserts, but just shrugged it off; he still quite liked dacquoise), he looked to Emily curiously, asking, “Wh-What was your favorite state to visit?”

okay so i put the cash i have left in japan in front of me and stared at it and i think i will be okay so long as sending my suitcases does not cost MORE than ¥12,000. i have to put ¥10,000 back in my bank account for fucking docomo, i need another ¥10,000 to pay for trains to the goddamn airport because transportation in japan is not anywhere near as cheap as the internet would lead you to believe, then the ¥12,000 for having the suitcases taken to my airbnb and i'll have ¥5,000 left to. eat at all until i leave the country. and when i check my second bag i will simply have to use my american debit card bc thats All i have here 👍
