Tarotscopes of SEIL by Mara

Date: Timeless (I’m not writing these again)

Oh it’s you. What do you want? Tarotscopes? Well I can’t promise that it’ll be any good. Take what resonates. And also take what doesn’t resonate. Take it all!

Right, here we go…

For the collective:

When it is REALLY cold, go outside and ride a white horse. It must be white…with pink hair and a single horn. Yes, it must be a unicorn. Go and ride a unicorn. Tell everyone to come and watch. No-one will come though. Anyway, ride the unicorn until it’s tired or it disappears in a burst of glitter. It will be an experience you’ll never forget.

Based on: Two tarot cards I pulled. Mind your business.

For each zodiac sign:

Aries (March 21 - April 19): Your toothbrush is plotting against you. Keep a close eye on it during full moons. This week, you’ll develop an irrational fear of oranges, but only on Tuesdays. By Thursday, you'll have the sudden urge to collect spoons. Go with it. Spoon wisdom will guide you.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20): A pigeon in your area knows something you don't. Make peace with the idea that your left sock will always vanish under mysterious circumstances. Avoid shopping for watermelons; they might start whispering secrets to you, and trust me, you're not ready for that.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20): Good news: your plants have begun a secret society. Bad news: they’ve elected your least favourite cactus as president. You’ll find a surprise fortune in the lint trap of your dryer. Pay attention to doorbells — they hold the key to your future, but only when rung backwards.

Cancer (June 21 - July 22): The stars suggest you should learn how to juggle, but not with balls. Preferably flamingos. You’ll discover that traffic cones are actually portals to another dimension, but only if you wear mismatched shoes. Your next great adventure involves a packet of crisps and a highly suspicious goat.

Leo (July 23 - August 22): This week, you’ll realise your charisma works best on houseplants and kitchen appliances. Practice your speeches in front of a blender; it’s an excellent listener. Avoid mirrors on Wednesdays. Not for any particular reason, it’s just a good way to stay mysterious.

Virgo (August 23 - September 22): The universe demands you alphabetise your thoughts, but in reverse order. That stray piece of pasta you’ll find in your shoe tomorrow is a sign of great fortune. By Saturday, you will invent a new form of dance that involves aggressively folding towels. Prepare for fame.

Libra (September 23 - October 22): Your charm will reach new heights, especially when speaking to pigeons. Beware of rubber ducks — their cheerful demeanour hides dark secrets. You will receive a cryptic message from a squirrel, but it will only make sense if you wear a hat made of spaghetti.

Scorpio (October 23 - November 21): You will soon develop a deep emotional bond with a jar of pickles. Trust your intuition when it tells you to whisper motivational quotes to your shoes. By Friday, your refrigerator may start offering unsolicited advice — consider taking it seriously.

Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21): Your life will be forever changed by a surprising revelation about pineapples. Avoid looking directly at lamp posts — they know too much. You will develop an inexplicable need to sing to your cereal every morning. The stars approve.

Capricorn (December 22 - January 19): Your week will be filled with unexpected adventures, mostly involving rubber bands and marshmallows. The position of the planets suggests you should avoid escalators at all costs; they’re out to get you. On Friday, a rogue pigeon will lead you to a treasure map — trust the process.

Aquarius (January 20 - February 18): A cloud shaped like a giraffe will reveal your destiny. Take it seriously. You will experience a life-altering moment involving a paperclip and a mysteriously appearing gnome. Stock up on glitter — it will be useful in ways you can’t yet imagine.

Pisces (February 19 - March 20): Your future is directly tied to the outcome of a staring contest with your reflection. Avoid all contact with sponges, unless they’re wearing hats. You’ll find wisdom in the most unexpected place — the bottom of a soup bowl. Beware of an overly talkative toaster.

Mara wrote these tarotscopes, ok? It totally was NOT written by Chelle over at Sugar x Tarot, promise - www.sugarxtarot.com

i'll update you on persona and what actually was happening in all that rambling for now know this is the game i am playing

https :// www.tumblr.com/houseplant-unicorn / 720939107640033280 /out-of-context-dialogue-wow-most-of-these-are?source=share

i want to romance Ryuji so bad but it's not an option i dont care about any other character just my dude bro homie lover he's the one who took me to castle town on a wrong turn i love him he's a dumbass

the post:

THIS GAME IS SO UNSERIOUSKJDSKJDFKJ i love that fr, blonde guy (ryuji??) lowkey looks like a cool takemichi kjjcvkjv i cant believe u cant get it with him that's so kjdfjkdfj

[skatiet]

for that ask game: do the LOST numbers :)

thank you for the ask <3

it’s a lot so it’s going under a read more

4. What do you wear when you have to dress nicely?

after calming down from the minor rage that comes with being required to dress a certain way, uhh probably a dress or a skirt. with boots or sandals or sneakers if i can get away with it because i hardly own any “nice” shoes. sometimes i don’t feel like wearing a dress/skirt though, and then i’m screwed because i really don’t own any “nice” pants that i actually like. might cry about it a little, but i’m now at a point where i can usually get over it and throw something on anyway. i’ve been meaning to get some nicer clothes for a while now, but i also hate shopping for clothes, so here we are.

8. Do you collect anything? If so, what?

not really. i grew up with a parent who had hoarding tendencies, and i definitely inherited some of that, so i actively try not to accumulate things just for the sake of having them. but if i do get a little trinket, it’s usually something with a cat or a unicorn (preferably the “realistic” kind, not like, cartoonish unicorns, if that makes sense), or anything lost related ofc.

15. Do you have any houseplants? Do any of them have names?

i used to, but then i went through a period where i moved six times in three years, and they were struggling, so i gave up on saving them. and now i live in a one bedroom apartment with two cats, so getting houseplants would probably be a disaster waiting to happen. i’ve wanted to get some for my balcony, but the weather has been so harsh that i don’t know what would actually survive out there. and i’ve never really been one to name my plants, but i think it’s cute when other people do it.

16. Describe your favorite hoodie. How long have you had it? What makes it unique?

hmm, i have a few, but one is my dad’s old notre dame hoodie. no one we know ever went there, but he loved anything to do with ireland. it has a giant garish leprechaun logo on it, and i never really wear it out of the house, but it’s big and cozy and i love it for that.

23. Which songs do you like to sing in the shower?

i don’t really sing in the shower, but i tend to listen to upbeat songs because showering is exhausting. here’s a little snippet just for funsies.

42. Do you have any games on your phone? If so, which one(s) is/are your favorite?

i have a bunch, but i don’t play most of them very much. i’ll go through phases where i get back into candy crush or best fiends. my favorite types of games are the puzzle games on sporcle, but they don’t have those on the app, so i can only play them on the computer. they should fix this for me personally actually.

I had this in my drafts for quite a while now bc I was waiting for having a new shot of VJ for posting and Idk where I copy pasted it from anymore bc several cp77 blogs did this post and I wanted as well! I'd definitely add a link/credit if I know who started that if it's needed.

American Names for Apple-Derived Liquids and How To Use Them: A Guide

So there’s been some confusion about the “Cider” i reccomend using in the Jesus Tea Recipe, so here’s a clarification post about which apple-based liquids I am and am not referring to

Apple Juice

Description:

clear yellow juice, sweet-smelling, non-Alcoholic.  Tends to have either a pissingly sad amount of Vitamin C, or TONS of it becuase the juice people add it back in after processing it.  Check the label.

Uses: If you can find the 120% DV Vitamin C version, this is great for alleviating cold symptoms (vitamin C doesn’t cure colds but it DOES make you feel better.  You’re still contagious. And sick.)  Check the sugar but can also a good substitute for soda when you’re craving something sweet to drink.  If you don’t have the Cider listed immediately below, you can put this in the Jesus Tea too.

Apple Cider

Description:

CLOUDY yellow-brown juice, NON-ALCOHOLIC. It’s apple juice, but made with the skins left in and not strained as much.  Tends to have better (50-100% DV) vitamin C content, along with important trace minerals, but Always Check the Label.

Description The Second:

Same as above, but with cinnamon, cloves and other spices steeped in it and served hot, especially at your grandma’s christmas party right after you and your cousins have all been playing sled-based Game Of Thrones out in the chest-deep Iowa snow and developing hypothermia before one of the more responisble adults demands you all stop walling Jimmy into an ice cave and come inside. Tastes like something stolen from the gods.

Uses: PUT THIS ONE IN THE JESUS TEA. In the Abscence of POG juice on the mainland, this is the closest thing we have to unicorn blood in terms of curing what feels like death.  Buy three gallons, chug one imediately, pass out for eight hours and sip the next two over the next 24 hours.  If not on death’s door but still cold outside, mull with spices and drink hot and thank whoever stole the recipe form Odin, probably.

Hard Cider

Description:

THE BOOZY ONE.  Apparently sweet for an alcoholic beverage, smells like diabetic skunk piss to me. Typically sold in brown beer-like bottles, and in the US, carbonated.  

Uses: Getting Extremely Fuckt Up, according to Irish Folk Band Gaelic Storm, who definitely know more about getting drunk than I do.

NON-USES:  DO NOT PUT THIS ONE IN THE JESUS TEA. Do not drink alcohol while on cold medications, or any medication really as not only will it prevent the medicine from doing it’s job, it could also potenticall kill you.  Also, Cold medications can interfere with a lot of meds, double-check to see if any medication you might be on is OK to take with cold meds before consuming.

Apple Cider Vinegar

Description:

fermented apple Juice or Cider, depending on manufacturer.  Looks similar to Apple Cider in that it’s brownish and cloudy but smells Bitter and slightly rotted upon opening the bottle.  Because it’s vinegar.

Uses:  Sauces, salad dressings, marinades, mouthwash, spot-cleaning stains, dab it on things you want your pet to leave alone, wipe your houseplants with it to get rid of pests. Hell, my sister uses this instead of shampoo and has flawless Disney Princess Hair so she might be onto something.  You can also add SMALL amounts to the tea if you need the acidity to break up phlegm in your throat or suchlike. but add like, a half teaspoon per cup, MAX.

NON-USES: ACV can be used to clean many thing but due to it’s high sugar content it can’t be used to sterilize things.  So don’t use it to clean cuts or countertops, use regualr antiseptic cleaners for that stuff.  Also don’t drink a whole bunch of it straight? that’s a lot of acid and it’ll give you a hell fo a stomach ache at best.

there’s a church near my house with one of those digital messageboards and whoever is in charge must be going THROUGH it because they’ve taken to posting inspirational instagram quotes. today it says “don’t forget to drink water and get some sun. you’re basically a houseplant with complex emotions.”

yall please stop policing what word someone uses to describe themselves . please you sound so fucking dumb.

life hack. if you’re using the word “invalid” to describe a person’s identity? you’re probably fighting the wrong fight.

i saw a carrd saying that someone who ids as an mspec lesbian is transphobic, lesbophobic AND biphobic/panphobic. it proclaimed that bi lesbians who use the sam and are either biromantic homosexual or homoromantic bisexual are not lesbians because they’re attracted to men. but honey?? they’re lesbians if they say they’re lesbians. maybe one person who ids this way may not consider themselves a bi lesbian but if another person wants to? that’s their fucking business and it isnt hurting you so leave them the fuck alone

Rec This Thing: Interactive Introverts

Interactive Introverts in Amsterdam RAI, evening show on June 2nd

Story: Dan and Phil decided to give the people what they want.

My Story: Okay, fun fact, I bought my ticket on June 1st. When they first announced their tour, my friend Sammy immediately bought tickets for her and her sister and she asked me to come along.

I declined.

After all, I wasn’t that big of a fan of Dan and Phil and I decided that people who are actual fans of them could have my possible ticket. Fast forward a couple of weeks and I became fan of them and both shows were sold out. Yup. Bummer. Instant regret. Total sadness. So Sammy promised to tell me everything yada yada since I couldn’t go. Then just over 24 hours before the show, Sammy sent me a message that there were five seats left for €55.

Crap.

Okay, I decided to do it. Fuck work the day after. Let’s go. And boy, am I glad I did.

Rating (1 to 10): 9

Why?: QUITE DETAILED SHOW SUMMARY UNDER CUT, SPOILERS!

Alright, yup, I’m just going to write down everything, including the entire show. Or at least what I remember cause holla, this is done from memory.

Basically, we arrived in Amsterdam after a lot of panic because my bus didn’t drive so we were about to miss our train. I ran back home and yelled to mum to grab the car (called Snuit) cause HOLY FUCK MY BUS IS 6 MINUTES LATE AND WITH THE NEXT BUS I WILL MISS MY TRAIN FOR SURE.

But okay, Amsterdam. We got there around four? First we checked out the venue, which wasn’t hard to find because their matinee show had just ended, so we just had to follow the stream of fans who were leaving, and then we had dinner at this Japanese place. Then around 18:30 we were back at the venue. Only VIP was allowed to go in already, so we decided to buy merch. The place was packed, so they decided to already open the merch stand. Good thing we got merch (I got a poster) before the show, because other merch was sold during intermission and after the show. Almost no one got merch during intermission, because it was only 20 minutes long, and after the show the line was insane. Probably 2,5+ hours wait time.

We found our seats. We got split up. Sammy and her sister had a great seat (row 9) and I sat on the other side of the theatre in a balcony seat which was fucking great as well. They put on Dan’s playlist and that playlist was banging. Sometimes, Dan’s Siri interrupted. I mean, they were playing Hard Times when I entered the theatre- great start. 

And of course they came on stage after Welcome To The Black Parade.

First we had a video kinda introducing danis not on fire and AmazingPhil and then they came in on a moving plaform. Like, their set was so minimalistic but also so great?

After the “Hello! Hi!” stuff they talked about being in Amsterdam (”Amsterdamn” - Phil) and how Phil is feeling a bit sick because he decided to eat tons of stroopwafels (strupwaffles, they called it). Dan called him out, because when you buy a pack of stroopwafels, they are obviously not supposed to be eaten at the same time.

Oh, and those poor foreigners aren’t used to shit ton of bikes in Amsterdam (or in the entire Netherlands tbh) so they were talking about how they almost got killed by bikers while crossing the road. 

They were obviously telling us what to expect and all of that.

Then first, What are we not going to do. They acted out everything they were not going to do. I only remember the erotic roleplay, because they did cop roleplay and it was fucking hilarious (”Please be gentle with those handcuffs, I have sensitive skin” - Dan), and the part where they dressed up as their cute pastel versions.

Truth Bombs came next. Phil got asked something among the lines of: “What Olympic sport would Phil excel in?”

Keeping houseplants alive

I forgot.

SPORTS??? LMFAO!

(If anyone’s reading this… if you happen to know the missing parts cause you were at the same show, hit me up.)

Phil said something about how avoiding bikes in Amsterdam is a sport and then he procceeded to jump over the small hexagon on stage. He chose the houseplants.

Dan’s question was: “What is in Dan’s browser history?” 

Fursuits (I think???)

I also forgot.

Something with Shrek 

Which was ironic, because Shrek the Musical played at the RAI. I don’t remember what Dan chose.

Then, “How will they die?” 

Demonetization

They fall off stage in a few minutes

I forgot….

Honestly, they kept talking about demonetization during the entire show. Every time they said something too raunchy, they’d say something like “We’re getting demonetized.”

I think the Simulator came next? Anyway Phil started out with ordering a unicorn frappuchino and he ended up being killed by Satan cause he tried make a deal with him to restore his twitter account after accidentally posting a sexy photo of himself in his pants. We cheered for Satan, and they kept reminding us of that during the entire show. 

Dan was outside for once and got approached by a furry, did body shots of an otter, and ended up dying in an underground furry rave after he decided to use the ladies’ restroom.

After that, Phil synced us all as Linda, so hooray, we were all Linda. Now as Linda, we could continue to the magic trick and the audience participation. What is hidden in the mysterious box that Dan hid under his bed? Our three answers were: cereal, a panda, a fursuit. 

I still don’t know how they did this trick. The box was unopened on stage all the time. Sammy and I first came up with this special electronic paper, but then we realised Phil gave it to audience members to rip it up and fight about it.

I only remember three questions asked during the Survey. There was apart about their favourite content and Dan was very happy to present it as a pie chart. Also “Do you think you know Dan and Phil?”

Yes

No

Who is Dan and Phil?

After joking about how all the parents answered the last answer, they noticed a small percent still answered no, and they talked about authenticity on YouTube and sure, they put themselves out there because they want to entertain people, but that they are still genuinely themselves and that they’re not faking it. But if you wanted to see the non-entertaining version of them, you’d be bored. (”On my sofa, with an overheated laptop on my crotch and a bag of crisps under my chin and me trying to eat them with my tongue cause I’m lazy” - Dan).

Then, of course the “Dan or Phil?” question and they presented the wheel and they made the most dramatic act one exit I’ve ever seen, and I am a Broadway fan.

During intermission, the two women next to me were talking about merch and I told them where to find it. Then I exited the theatre. Sammy’s sister bought Pringles and I bought M&Ms and the three of us were kinda shocked to see the queue for the merch stand. Those poor fuckers.

We went back to the theatre and I talked about the merch again, because I happened to know the whole merch stand and its prices by heart after looking at it for 45 minutes (hoodie €40, sweater €30, wristband €5, poster €10, Dan and Phil plushies €25, denim jacket €65, two t-shirts €20 and €25, keycord or whatever it is called €10, cap €15, woops I still know it).

Back to the show! Phil was on the wheel and Dan used a slingshot, a bow and arrow, and a bazooka. And afterwards Phil was showing off his ass while taking off that white body suit. He said he was dizzy and Dan dared him to jump over the hexagon again, but Phil refused.

Okay anyway the next thing I remember is the wholesome Daniel and X-Rated Lester part (”I’m already feeling naughty” - Phil). In the beginning they had this whole talk about authenticity and how they are still humans bla which was really cool. Since I am a recent fan, I completely missed the actual wholesome Daniel craze, but yeah, they talked about how they are actual people and sometimes, they don’t meet certain expectations of fans.

Also, at one point in the show, Dan was talking about God and he yelled “Spite me, daddy!” and I think it was around this moment. The entire crowd yelled.

Alright Dan had to sweet talk disturbing fan fiction, Hello Internet, and another thing uuuuhm. I don’t remember. Anyway, he kept saying “Oh for God’s sake!”, especially at the Hello Internet one.

Phil had to bad mouth cute animals, endless kittens (he failed), and ugh I have also forgotten his last one. The person who sent in cute animals sat in front of me and it was just absolutely amazing to see how happy she was to see her submission on screen.

Then the Dan vs. Phil friendship game. There was a lot of stuff, but I remember some. I can’t believe they shocked each other, but maybe that is because I’d read the Milgram Experminent earlier that week.

First, psychic connection. They both had to name the same number between 1 to 20 and they failed. 

Then a dilemma. Dan got the dilemma: “Guest star in Infinity War 4 or Phil gets thrown in a pool of cheese?”

Phil had to choose between: “A billion dollars or Dan will never be able to see dogs again?” According to Phil, he’d buy two big airplanes and then merge them together for an ever bigger airplane.

Then the Dan or Phil or Rat. They both got it right. Phil just got a photo of something white, but he guessed that it was his own pale skin and Dan got some hairs and he guessed that it was a rat.

Trivia. Dan needed to name 3 pre-2008 Phil videos and succeeded. Dan thanked Phil for uploading his newest video about his his old deleted stuff. Phil needed to recall the kind of cake that Colin ruined and failed.

There was probably more to Dan vs. Phil but I am blanking. Phil got the big shock (”I’m Phil trash no. 1!″ - Dan).

Then the intimate moment. Or personal. Phil called it intimate and Dan just went “PERSONAL? DON’T CALL IT INTIMATE, IT’S PERSONAL” and then proceeded to point out that Phil has a degree in English language.

It was just so down to earth. There were three questions, and I remember two. The first person asked for an appropriate name for their zoo animal YouTube channel. I forgot the name they recommended, but they said it was great that this person had a clear theme.

I remember one person saying that she wants to be a singer but her parents want her to go into medicine and well first they were like “hey singing doctor!”. But they talked about how passion is important and how they both didn’t do what was expected and how they are much happier now (“Lawyer Dan is as awful as a singing doctor!” - Dan) but I unfortunately forgot the other two questions. It was just a really nice moment where both Dan and Phil just sat down to have a chat. Oh and they also talked about Phil’s apparent awful handwriting.

Then the power came back on and I think that is when the Awards happened? Glitter jackets af and a self-made statue (”Two naked men in bondage really represents Dan and Phil” - Phil, or something like that.)

The first category was: Best dressed pet as Dan and Phil.

A lizard wearing a flower crown while watching the video of Black Parade won.

A cat wearing Dan’s merch.

I don’t even know but it looked like Dan was riding Phil so that was that. I suppose it was a dog.

And then Most inaccurate expectation of the show

I fucking forgot first place.

Two hour long Hamilton reenaction with Chris Evans.

Them giving birth on stage.

Also the most annoyed parent was just incredibly funny. I remember the winners but hey I don’t feel comfortable just sharing their names cause… privacy. I know the winner sat on the second row and all kids were pointing at her and I guess Dan and Phil saw her and said: “This was probably the worst day of your life, thank you for sharing it with us!” “You probably thought you were seeing Shrek the Musical.”

And then back to the scripted part, aka the Big Finale. A dog video that has nothing to do with the show, PHIL’S DISS TRACK, Dan at the piano, and them singing a duet. This ain’t Broadway, but it was still kinda nice and just sweet.

And well, that is it. They runned around on stage, waving at everyone, saying goodbye. Then they stepped on their moving platform and they disappeared.

Some random things:

Phil kept calling a part of the set a “flap” which annoyed Dan.

Dan… just… couldn’t… stop… dabbing…

They hinted at a new gaming video that involves a lot of Dan’s screaming - coming next week.

So many pride flags in the crowd.

Phil and Dan sounds wrong.

There was one moment where a picture of Dan’s had pasted on a horse from My Horse Prince appeared with a text bulb saying “Ride me, senpai” but I don’t remember when that happened. I think before the Simulator?

Interactive Introverts kind of reminded me of Hedwig and the Angry Inch. There’s clearly a format and a script, but thanks to audience participation, no shows are the same.

But in all seriousness, as my friend Rowan @rothetree pointed out, the entire message of this show was about how Dan and Phil are just human. As Ro put it: “On a serious note, there’s a whole underlying theme to this show, which was them basically going “Hey, we’re real people, stop objectifying us"”. This felt so in line with what the three of us were talking about. Me, Sammy and Sammy’s sister had to endure a two hour train ride and we talked a lot about fandom’s perception on real life people they stan and how they sometimes reduce those people to the image they have in their minds.

Cause we were talking about stuff like real life shipping, and about how celebrities are being seen, and how the moment they do something the fans don’t like, you get all those moments of “X is not real anymore!”

Newsflash asshole, they are people with feelings, and just because you don’t want to see those feelings, doesn’t mean they don’t have them. For example, Sammy was talking about how one K-POP star basically got stalked at an airport and when he clearly showed his dislike of it, people were all “OH MY GOD HE DOESN’T LIKE HIS FANS HE IS SO RUDE HE’S NOT WHO WE THOUGHT HE WAS” and I gave the example of people saying Darren is “no longer himself” after he called out the people who are seriously threatening his fiancée and all that stuff.

Before the show started, we overheard two other fans talking about how they should come out bla bla bla, and just… no? That is so personal and we are not entitled to that at all? 

To quote Ghostly, they are not our dolls. We can’t dress them up in whatever way we want.

I recently read I Was Born For This by Alice Oseman, which follows a band from the fans’ POV and through the band’s POV and how sometimes those things clash, and I feel like with Interactive Introverts, Dan and Phil wanted to show people who they are to avoid a clash like that. That’s why they kept talking about how they value authenticity, while they are aware of the fact that they are also putting on a show. Or how, when people have certain images of them, how unrealistic those images can be and that they cannot live up to the expectations, and therefore it is important for fans to realise that. The tagline is: “Giving the people what they want!” and they did that without having to change for the fans’ sake.

As Rowan (rothetree, not Rowan from the book I Was Born For This) said: "we don’t own their image or expect too much from them. Something about their interactions with us is changing in a really good way."

Because that exactly.

Since I am a recent fan and I got my ticket one day before the show, I wasn’t aware of the questions, but in the “Do you think you know Dan or Phil?” (as they said: or do you think we’re people putting up a whole show) I would’ve answered a solid “no”, because I always think it’s dangerous to say that you know a celebrity, but after this show, I’d vote “yes”, because the way they acted on stage and the way they conveyed their message of “yes, we’re putting on a show right now because we want to entertain you guys, but we still care about authenticity” was well done.

And that is what made this show so great and enjoyable. Yes, it was a show and there were scripted parts, but it was still very genuine.

Recommend?: Yes, please, just like TATINOF, put it online for sale!

Unique Unicorn TikTok

About a month ago, I started a TikTok for a small business. The Unique Unicorn is a local houseplant store that just opened at the end of 2020. They are hoping to broaden their reach on social media, and I realized there was a big plant following on TikTok. While it might not lead directly to more customers at first, the app is a great place to be creative and broaden their reach.

My first TikTok was an introduction to the store, where I just showed footage of what plants they had in stock. This post got 495 views and 132 likes, the most likes out of any of my videos so far. I thought this was a super good start, considering when I made it we had zero followers or prior posts.

The second video I made was of pet-friendly houseplants. I have worked at a greenhouse before, so I know this is a frequently asked question. I really had high hopes for this post and it was a bit of a let down. 

I showed and named different plants they carried in stock that were pet-friendly by zooming in on the plant until all you saw was green, then when I zoomed back out you were looking at the next plant. This video only got 185 views and 46 likes. I still don’t know why this one flopped so much, but oh well I guess.

The third video I’ve made was showing footage of one of the employees propagating a String of Hearts plant. I used the Siri voiceover and showed step by step instructions of how to correctly propagate the plant, as well as a final product showing new growth. As a plant lover, I’m interested by these videos, so I thought it would be a large hit, as well.

After getting low views on my previous post, I decided to post this video onto my other social media platforms. I posted it on my personal Instagram page as well as LinkedIn, where I asked for advice. I’m sure that this helped up my views, but I’m not sure to what extent. Because now, over a week since it’s been posted, the view count keeps rising. It is currently at 2,495 views and has 80 likes.

I have footage for one more TikTok that I plan to make soon, which displays the stores decorations, including crystals, sage, pots and plant accessories. Currently, the account only has 13 followers. We have a total of 258 likes, but only 13 followers, so I would like to find a way to engage with my audience more. Perhaps I can ask questions in the comments to start a conversation?

While I still haven’t figured out how to go viral by any means, I have some ideas. I have been tagging my videos with relevant hashtags, such as plants, houseplants, planttiktok, etc. However, I have noticed the viral videos on my For You Page all have the same, random hashtag for about a week’s time. I need to figure out what the popular hashtag is at my time of posting and see if it will land my video on the For You Page.

I also have learned a few things. For example, my first TikTok taught me that you really don’t want words in the bottom half of the screen. Once I used hashtags, the caption and tags covered up some of my words. As a viewer, I find that annoying, and it doesn’t let my viewers get all the information.

I also have learned that I need to promote my videos on other social pages! Not only do I need to be promoting them on my personal media, but I need Unique Unicorn to start reposting the videos onto their Instagram and Facebook pages to increase the view count.

Overall, creating these plant TikToks has honestly been very fun. I enjoy editing the videos and pairing them with music in a way that’s creative and informative and I hope I can crack the code here soon and create a viral plant video. Does anyone have any social media branding tips for TikTok, specifically?

Starlit Houseplants chapter 2

(A/N WOOP WOOP! It’s chapter two. You can pretty much read the chapters separately or together. Link to chapter 1: https://unicorn-nova.tumblr.com/post/170632425009/starlit-houseplants       )

It was Sunday morning. Phil was still half asleep in a hazy dreamscape. It was around 10:30. After a while his eyes fluttered open. He stretched in the soft morning sunlight. He stayed there in bed for a while staring at the ceiling. It was warm and comfortable as the strained sunlight came in through his slightly parted curtains. He yawned. Suddenly he heard a knock at the window is his lounge. At first Phil was scared until he realized it was probably Dan, his neighbor from across the ladder. He got up out of his bed and went into the living room. Phil went up to his window to see a curly haired boy waiting out on his fire escape. He opened the window, leaning on the sill.

“Morning!” Dan greeted “Morning” Phil replied smiling “May I come in or do I have to stay out here?” Phil laughed “sure you can come in” Dan carefully climbed through the window into Phil’s living room. “Why were you at my window by the way?” Phil asked folding his arms “I couldn’t wait to see you again…” Dan said almost in a whisper looking away from Phil’s gaze Phil blushed “aw well I don’t mind” “I’m glad” “Come sit on the couch and I’ll make some tea?” Phil offered “Sure” Dan said walking towards the couch and sat down. He admired all of the plants scattered all over Phil’s apartment. He sat down on The couch. Phil realized he was still in his pajamas which consisted of his soft pastel green pajama pants and a loose teeshirt with a pale pink cactus pattern. He walked up to one of the cabinets in his kitchen and got out two mugs. He got a kettle out from a drawer and turned on the stove. As the water was boiling. Phil got out a lighter and carefully lit a small vanilla scented candle that was on the counter across from the stove. “Wow, you really do have a lot of house plants” Dan commented Phil laughed “it’s true, I love having little green friends all around my flat”. Phil touched the leaves of a flower that was in a pot hanging from his ceiling. “Little green friends..” Dan repeated “I love the things you say, you’re such a dork” he said laughing Phil was blushing, but looked down to somewhat hide his face. “Thank you?” “Yes, it’s a complement” Dan replied “What kind of tea would you like?” “Uh..Peppermint, if you have it” Phil nodded. He poured the hot water into the two mugs, putting a peppermint teabag in Dan’s mug and a chamomile in his own. He walked over with the two mugs and sat next to Dan on the couch. There were adorable fairy lights around the room, turned off since it was day. “Thanks for the tea” “No problem” They sat awkwardly holding their cups for a little while. “Do you want to watch something on my laptop?” Phil asked, playing with the edge of his pink shirt. “Sure, like what?” “Uh..Buffy The Vampire Slayer?” Phil asked “I’ve never watched it” Dan said Phil’s mouth dropped open “really?! Well that settles, we’re watching season one” “Ok then” Dan laughed Phil put down his mug, got up and grabbed his computer from his bedroom before returning. He setup episode one “Welcome to the Hellmouth”. “Looks like a good show” Dan commented “Oh it is” - About three hours, five episodes of Buffy later, Dan was leaning slightly on Phil and their hands were on top of each other. It was about 2:10 and their tea mugs were empty. The episode ended and Dan spoke. “Wanna do something else?” “What would that something be?” Phil asked “Like, late lunch? I haven’t eaten anything since breakfast” “And I haven’t eaten at all today..” that’s weird Phil almost never waited this long, he supposed he just didn’t think about it since he was paying attention to the curly haired boy sitting next to him. “Let’s get food at the coffee shop across the street?” Dan suggested “Sure, does that make it a date?” “Yes, this time it is a date” Dan replied smiling - (A/N hope you enjoyed! Next chapter shall be *stares dramatically at camera* the date.)
