had an interesting experience today in which i told some friends abt how i used to have hair down to my waist and they all went ‘:0 really? I can’t even imagine you with short hair’ and as someone who had such long hair for my entire pre-high school life it’s so strange to think people see me and don’t immediately associate me with that other version of me. very strange indeed.

i dont rly understand cookie run but i see u post about it a lot so!! this is ur free pass to infodump @ me :3c
Okay okay okay so like
*cookie*
The games themselves are not as much something to write home about but the characters have JUST enough lore and JUST enough plot that they're good they're great
They either have names based on ingredient (Pomegranate Cookie), Role (timekeeper cookie) or a mix (Sorbet Shark Cookie).
all playable character are cookies? I mean technically a few are animals that wanted to be cookies so hard they became cookies? But they're mostly.. mostly cookies it counts.
Uh, the main plot in Cookie Run is Uh. Dark Enchantress wants to plunge the world into darkness. Spooky. Her minions are Pomegranate, who was a seer(?) Who had a prophecy that she would help with this and just went "fuck. Yeah okay let's go". Dark Choco, I'm gonna talk more about them in a moment,
Licorice, edgy magic boy who both has self esteem issues and thinks hes hot shit, he was introduced in kingdom
poison mushroom, small child who.. ate a poison mushroom I'm not kidding that's their backstory, they were introduced in kingdom
Lobster, who was a protector of an underwater city,
And a few other cookies have corrupted skins but idk where ans when it counts as canon :0c
Ccookie run kingdom is a game that came out... Jan 25? I dunno, but it is a different plot and adds and takes away some characters
BASICALLY, there were 5 legendary cookies who were saving the world and dark enchantress did not like that. They all fucking died, and Pome, Dark Choco, PM and Licorice are trying to bring DE back. Gingerbrave went "hm. Dont like that" and is trying to stop it.
So like, there are so many fucking characters. 124 in oven break with 1 more coming this week, there are several minor plots and major plots, kingdom has like. 5 new ones so like. 130 announced and total cookies? IRS a lot
The ones I talk about a lot are
Pome, who i summarized p well up there. Shes a bitch I love her
Dark Choco, a fucking idiot prince who went "oh shit! My father dark cacao is so cool, as a legendary hero! Man! Everything is falling apart! I should go save my kingdom by venturing into the darkness!" And then he did and then he grabbed a cursed strawberry jam (read: blood) Sword, fucked himself up, got stuck as DE's minion, and LORE DROPPED in kingdom that he fucking attacked his father because the sword and hes jSut dESERVES BETYER
Milk, who I dont talk about enough. But hes on ak epic quest to find dark choco! Because they saved his village when milk was young! And milk decided to be a hero just like them! And he wants to thank them! And he has no ducking idea what hes in for! Hes traveling with Purple yam. Who wants a rematch against dark choco and is a very angry character. And also dino-sour but I know nothin about him úwù
Mint Choco! He plays violin, no canon relation to dark choco :].
Sea Fairy, who is like, cursed with a frozen soul and the warm kindness from those she knows keeps her from not being a frozen statue or sea foam! Also NOT SUBTLY WLW CODED WITH MOON FAIRY. As she says "of all cookies, her heart is the warmest" and has a costume where, since She tried so hard and never made it to the moon, she 8solated herself into the deep depths in a depression where the moon'a light could never reach S O -
Some cookies are neater than others
Some are bland
The fandom can be really rough
But its great :]

Stay-at-home journal 12/31/20
Yesterday:
Did some chores
Worked on a drawing
Watched bloodfest, which was silly but entertaining enough
Today:
Finish coloring the drawing
Try to make sorbet
Do some sort of light exercise
Go to sleep shortly after midnight
Free space:
I havent been able to get to sleep lately, which then causes me to sleep in the next day. I dont have a problem w sleeping in a little, but when it makes me sleep until noon i get upset that half the day is gone. Its going to be awful trying to wake up for work on monday too. Last night i went to bed and then woke up st 3 am. Couldn't get back to sleep until 6. I wish my brain didn't do this to me. I think sleep stuff is the fastest way to upset me.
Last day of the yr. I know a lot of ppl are like fuck 2020 good riddance, but idk it seems arbitrary. Maybe its my natural pessimism thats talking, but theres no difference in yrs except perception. That said, it does give us a recurring landmark to reflect and to make new goals even tho rly you can do that literally any time. Its the only holiday that every country on earth celebrates, so i guess thats pretty cool. But personally its over hyped.
So i guess i should talk abt my yr in review. Idk. I did a lot more gardening. I decorated some rooms. I worked on a variety of new art skills. I had both frustration and success at work. My body started having a lot of pain. I wrote 7 songs. I bought a lot. Overall i lived a pretty cushy life and im grateful for the good things I have.
I assume my friends will do something on discord tonight, but i rly don't feel like joining in.
Anyway, heres the inked drawing. Took me 1.5 hrs to sketch, 1 hr to ink. I did a poor job bc my hands so shaky and unsure. I didnt rly play w line thicknesses, tho maybe i will in the future. I have it 75% colored and that took like idk 5 hrs. In all i think thisll be a 9 hr project. Im so impatient, i don't want art to take this long. But at least i was motivated enough to sit down and do it.

IPAs for people who think they hate hoppy, bitter beers

 (Courtesy of 21st Amendment Brewery)

Previous Next
Everyone loves IPAs, right? That was my theory when I started writing Complete IPA, my deep dive into the recent phenomenon thats seen IPAs take over tap lines from L.A. to Tokyo, Rio to Berlin and beer-soaked lands in between. But as I, uh, endlessly researched (hey, that double IPA aint going to drink itself), I discovered both bitter revelation and opposition: I dont like IPAs, I heard time and again.
Anchovies? Blue cheese? I get the intense dislike. Whats not to love about fragrant IPAs? Theyre flavor chameleons, tasting like rainbow sorbet or evoking pine forests, sipping as smooth as gelato or spiky with bitterness. Theyre blank slates for breweries experimental whims.
The IPA is not one thing, its everything, with flavor combinations as infinite and inventive as Ben and Jerrys ice cream. Ive heard the complaints, the bitterness and booziness, staleness and uncertainty. Whatever your beef with IPAs, I guarantee Ive got one youll actually like.
Problem: You dont like bitter beers
Fix: Try the new-breed Northeast-style IPAs.
During the IPAs early millennium ascent, brewers escalated bitterness, constantly one-upping each other with beers so bitter you could barely finish a bottle. It was like sports bars serving ever-fierier chicken wings.

That fads phasing out. By using hops (especially varieties evocative of things like tropical fruit and ripe peaches) later in the brewing process, beer makers intensify fragrances and aromas, not bitterness. Keep the beer unfiltered for a foggier color and fuller flavor, maybe add oats and wheat for smoothness, and you have a template for the juicy new-school IPA thats sweeping the Northeast and the nation.
If youve had the Alchemists silky-smooth Heady Topper or any IPA from Hill Farmstead, youll like the dankly addictive Substance from Maines Bissell Brothers, or maybe Trilliums Congress Street IPA. Think: biscuits, sun-warmed peaches, sweet melons.
Many Northeast IPAs are hard-to-get, requiring a road trip. (Try this Vermont trek.) More widely distributed examples include Otter Creek Backseat Berner, a sweetly hazy stumble through pine forests and citrus groves, and Sixpoint Puff, as cloudy and resinous as a dorm room.
Moreover, the Northeast style has spread nationwide, with Colorado-based Odd13s Caribbean-fruity Codename: Superfan and Portland brewery Great Notion doling out hazy, hardly bitter hop bombs like Ripe and Juice Box.
Problem: IPAs all taste the same.
Fix: Seek out a new hop variety.
Pine trees. Citrus. Primo weed. Taste too many IPAs and they blur together like lunch at a cut-rate Chinese buffet. To escape the flavor fatigue, grab a pale ale or IPA humming with fresh varieties of hops, the flowers that impart bitterness, aroma, and flavor. Here are some hops to look out for:
Founders Mosaic Promise and Karl Strauss Mosaic Session IPA both showcase (you guessed it) Mosaic hops, which impart notes of blueberries, papaya, peaches, and pine.

Germanys Mandarina Bavaria hop adds orangey complexity to beers such as Skas Modus Mandarina IPA (it also contains sweet orange peels).
Like watermelon Jolly Ranchers? Youll love El Dorado hops, which star in Maine Beer Companys A Tiny Beautiful Something and Stone Delicious IPA, a gluten-reduced beer also containing the citrusy Lemondrop hops.
New Zealands fruity Nelson Sauvin hops provide a white winelike nuance in Widmer Brothers Upheaval IPA and SanTan Brewings MoonJuice, which also contains Australias peachy, melon-like Galaxy hops. Give it a go in Tasmanian IPA, from Schlafly, or Tallgrass 8-Bit Pale Ale.
Always want to be surprised by an IPA? Firestone Walkers canned and bottled Luponic Distortion features a new blend of experimental hops every 90 days.
Problem: IPAs are too strong.
Fix: Grab a session IPAor six.
Over the years, the IPAs baseline ABV has crept up to around 7 percent. Two or three pints can swirl eyes like peppermint candy. Thats to say nothing of the double, triple, and quadruple IPAs, rivaling Riesling and Cabernet for ABV supremacy.
Instead of sacrificing sobriety for flavor, breweries have created low-alcohol, high-aroma IPAs that are about as boozy as Bud Lightbut about a million times more flavorful. Try Evil Twin Citra Sunshine Slacker, as bright and tropical as a Caribbean vacation; 21st Amendment Down to Earth, reminiscent of toast topped with berry jam; or a Founders citrus-spritzed All Day IPA, a party beer sold by the 15-pack suitcase.
Problem: IPAs never, ever taste fresh.
Fix: Check for the bottled- or canned-on date, or hit a brewery for a release.
To savor an IPA as the brewer intended, you should drink them close to their birthday.
Deciphering freshness used to be difficult, the date code a hieroglyphic string of numbers and letters. Increasingly, breweries utilize a simplified best by or packaged on code, commonly found on a beer bottles neck or label, or a cans bottom. Generally speaking, IPAs are ideally enjoyed within 90 days. And seek out beers stored cold, far from sunshine.
Instead of stalking a delivery truck, you can also look for Stones Enjoy By series of IPAs. Their expiration dates37 days after packagingare built directly into the label, while Sam Adams similarly themed Rebel Raw double IPA has a 35-day shelf life.
Problem: You dont know what an IPA tastes like
Fix: Try a fruited IPA.
Buying IPAs has never been easieror more mystifying. But labels dont always accurately describe the liquid inside, sometimes leading to disappointment. To hedge your bets, look to the new breed of fruit-infused IPAs. Done deftly, adding blood oranges, grapefruit, or pineapple can accentuate the inherent fruity profile of hops. Fruited IPAs are never subtle, sure, but they are truth in advertising, a trusted commodity.
Try Dogfish Heads brand-new Flesh & Blood, tart and zesty with lemon pulp and blood orange juice, and New Belgiums Citradelica sweetly tropical love letter to tangerines. Also, Ballast Point has spun off several variants of its tropical Sculpin, including pineapple and grapefruit versions that taste like never-ending summer vacation.

dessert theme q’s
cherry turnover: who do you live with? - i live alone in my dorm room but when im home for the summers or breaks or something i live with my mom and sister and my dad and his gf / divorced parents 
bananas foster: do you believe in soulmates? - i think that friendly soul mates are more bound to happen rather than romantic ones, but idk i think that a lot of different people can touch your life and change it for the better 
glazed donut: would you rather visit a zoo or an aquarium? - i like the combo zoos that also have fish to look at so when its super hot outside you can go into the fish part and its like ac and cold and blue 
pumpkin pie: what were your interests as a child?- idk i loved guniess book of world records, pirates, disney channel tv, i wanted to own my own diner so i would  write out my menu and drink choices and what my servers would wear also i used to tap dance and i miss that sometimes 
lemon tart: how many languages can you speak? - only 1, english. i wish i had more time to study a language 
chocolate mousse: how is your relationship with your parents? - its pretty good honestly. Most of my friends hate their parents and dont agree on anything where i most of the time share the same mindset as my parents, which is nice a lot of the time, my mom is very liberal and my dad is a socialist so like its a diverse and interesting house hold 
creme brûlée: describe your style- my style is very lax, i dont try very hard to do anything really. but i think regardless of my shitty style i always stand out bc i buzz my hair and fill in my eyebrows really thick, i really only wear vans and i think that also adds to my aesthetic. 
cheesecake: have you ever visited a sex shop? - ive visited a bunch of them a lot of time they have really good makeup for queens and you can get glitter there as well as costuming and any sexy things you might need my favorite is the garden in columbus
