#we do be cucumbers

[theoldkyokodied]

Aaaaand more very quick stream doodles. This one shot was so fun to watch, it’s so sad that it had to end already. But oh well, let’s not dwell on that and let’s enjoy the good time we had, like disguised tiefling gale being both Karlachs and astarions type, wyll and gale having a spa day, bing bong in general (rip king, you will be missed), and of course the 8 strength fight for magic items <3 thanks to the cast for the chaos, I enjoyed it thoroughly

#bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #astarion ancunin #gale dekarios #shadowheart #wyll ravengard #karlach #lae'zel #bloodweave #bc I say so #>:3c #I also refuse to draw gale without the beard sorry #I’m so happy we got to see more Tim being chaotic. he’s like the eye of the storm. calm and unassuming while commanding the chaos #around him #the gale wine mom moment was literally so real I nearly cried from laughter when Tim mimed eating the cucumber slices from his face mask #god I wish they could do a whole campaign I would watch that back and fourth #everything I draw that includes them is bloodweave bc I love them dearly. same goes for shartzel (still love that ship name) #I just have not yet drawn actual ship art outside of this of them so I feel less comfortable tagging it as such 🥹

I do think its really important to remember that SY was suppose to be the villain character but its only because of his kindness and newly gained life that he didn’t end as one. In the very beginning of the story we learn that Peerless Cucumber Bro often left comments on how SJ didn’t get his dues and needed to be punished more, and only after he transmigrated did he acknowledge how awful of a death SJ had. He also made point to explain that he only read the book for LBH, which he noted to enjoy his decisive actions and deft ability to kill. Markedly, he liked his brutality and personality over the erotica that the majority of PIDW fans enjoyed. Peerless Cucumber Bro is someone who loves action and the ability to cut right to the chase, something that he does not do and most likely has difficulty with in his world.

Speaking of, it is something to note that Peerless Cucumber bro is rich. He had head chefs, he could pay for a 6k+ chapter book of erotica in 20 days, he noted that he could not understand SJs envy and ambition for power since he lives well, and he even noted to himself that his family was well off. He is incredibly wealthy, and it shows. Which is important to note because he, not once, showed any guilt or remorse on dying and leaving his family behind. Yes, he sometimes refers to people as being similar to his family but he never showed any pain for losing that life like he did when he lost LBH. This is important because I genuinely think SY was depressed and self destructive to himself, which goes against popular HC that he was chronically/terminally ill (I do like this HC and like how its portrayed in fanfiction). It would explain how he ended up dying all alone by himself, and how blase he was to his own life and death.

SQQ is a self destructive force who ended up dying three times, and didn’t feel anything about death itself. He was worried about others and the effect it had on them, but for himself it was up and on again like it never happened. He does not care for his health, had self isolated as SY to the point he died alone, and has a horrible self esteem to the point that he continuously agrees when other people put him down and often calls himself the villain. Even though we have seen the evidence of someone who is always being thrust into new situations and awful plots, he calls himself lazy and easy going. He hides his thoughts and feelings behind his fan and has a remarkably thin face. At the very base of his actions and his thoughts, he is self destructive, powerful, and smart. This is the set up for a villain.

However, when shown the actual people in front of him and forced to act as SJ did towards LBH and his disciples, he flinches from it. He notes that it happening in front of him was different. His entire self soothing comedy monologue went quiet when he had to enforce the Endless Abyss scene, and grieved for the childish innocence he killed from one of his favourite people. SY was set up to be the villain and obviously thinks of himself as one, but can not act as one. If he had the choice LBH would have been his sticky sweet white lotus disciple for as long as LBH wished to be.

His kindness, as seen in the book, is what turned him from being “the scumbag villain” to the protagonist we see in the novels. Which, yes, he is a protagonist! He even has the protag halo that LBH has and its very funny in the meta way for SQQ not to realize this, but thats for another post. But he loves his disciples, he loves his peak lord siblings, he loves his Binghe, he loves his new life, and he is kind. That is what kept him from being the villain he sees himself as, his kindness and love for others. Whether that be romantic, platonic, or familial, he loves the people he has met and he treats them kindly. That is why it is important to remember that he was set up as the villain by everything in the story we do not see, but what we do see is him continuously changing the story to fit a new genre that lets as many people as he can save live. Sorry sorry, I just think about SY being set up as a villain so much. It changes a lot of views I have on the series when I remember the duality of SYs story and character development.

#SVSSS #scumbag self saving system #Shen Yuan #shen jiu #shen qingqiu #luo binghe #Meta #I think?? Haha I dont usually do metas but I dont know how to write fanfic for this series #so Im just writing down my thoughts on the characters #Like how if we see this from the PIDW characters POV SY is truly a villain #Its just something that makes me laugh because he is a villain just as much as he isnt! #what a wonderful complex character to write for. This type of story. #I wonder if Peerless Cucumber Bro would forgive me for writing meta about him?? I think he would be kind of happy but utterly disgusted #ew fans that actually think im complex even though Im a really simple person with no hidden motives -SQQ probably #I love this fucking idiot so much I relate to him on a spirtual level and think he was probably depress to the point of having A Plan. #if you know what I mean #because I still think him reading PIDW entirely in 20 days marks a special occasion for something and if its not for the final chapter... #Anyway #I love this stupid sweet potato of a character #Oh! New tag! #Sweet Potato SQQ #for archiving puproses on meta for him #Probably not good meta I didnt even add quotes or page numbers Im just talking out my ass from what I remember #Watch me write an essay on this lmao

The girls on the PIDW forums would definitely also hold PIDW slash ship tournaments and every single time bingjiu would appear in a round Peerless Cucumber would go 10000% campaigning propaganda against it

#he HATES IT #ik hes cool with pidw slash as we can see in the airplane extra but I think bingjiu (or bingqiu ig) is his notp #infamous anti peerless cucumber the scourge of pidw slash fandom #though I do think bingjiu shippers would egg him on. they'd deliberately poke him w content just for fun #scumbag self saving system #svsss #shen yuan #sy

Please give me some good animal knowledge I need it dearly

#documentary or youtube videos or just plain facts i need to learn about my fellow creatures or ill crumble onto myself #there are so many little guys i know nothing about its breaking my heart 😔 #also today i need to go get a bunch of vegetables and prepare them so we have already done food #im thinking about making pickled carrots and cucumber salad #i might also stir fry some peppers so we have some side dishes around #also roasted potatoes probably #im definitely overestimating my capacity to do stuff in one day but its alright 👍

So, I finally tried The Flavor. It was genuinely bizarre, because there is a taste but it's not really anything that's meaningful. It is like drinking "Colorless green ideas sleep furiously".

Which, actually, brings me to my conclusion of why it is like this. It's genuinely kind of interesting. There are no real disparate elements between the two beverages, nothing that would expressly taste bad if mixed. But, also, cranberry and cucumber aren't really good together, or bad, just weird. Then there's the makeup of it all. Salt, sugar, and alcohol. I genuinely think that when these things combine in this way they actually do sort of short out your brain and get NULL as a response. Because you do taste something, it's just nothing.

My primary reaction to it was that it was heavy. Not the way cream or oil is heavy, but the way a small weight in your mouth would be heavy. My brain prioritized the mass of The Flavor before it could work out what it tasted like.

Like I said, this is "Colorless green ideas sleep furiously" of drinks. There is nothing wrong with the actual composition of the beverage, but it is incoherent nonsense the second it has to stand up to actual review.

#the flavor #so i told my therapist it take at least a 100 level class in three disciplines to make sense of my sentences #this was not bragging #i do not think i am clever or other people are stupid #i think i am incoherent #i feel kinda like me connecting flavor profiles to noam chomsky is gonna make her think i'm trying to be incoherent #no really this is genuinely odd #also mikes harder cranberry is fucking gross #it does have a flavor #that flavor is that i am 16 and i found suspect gin in my uncle's basement and the only mixer i have is cranberry sauce #it is thanksgiving in this scenario but that's what it tastes like #gross and a little shameful and like my mom will yell at me #lime cucumber Gatorade tastes kinda like gatorade is trying to impress me but not in a good way #like it wants to be fancy enough that we can smash #it mostly tastes like if cucumber shampoo tasted exactly the way you think cucumber shampoo should taste but doesnt #i like lime cucumber gatorade but i do not like mikes harder cranberry #both of these drinks would take advantage of me while drunk #but only the gatorade would know what it was doing was wrong

[image id: various produce, mostly tomatoes, spread over a grainy countertop. The produce is mostly grouped by variety. Only the lemon cucumbers are in a bowl. End image id]

Haven’t posted any harvest photos yet this year because I don’t usually arrange them very nicely, but I put a bit more effort into this one from a few days ago. My favorite tomato of all time is the freaky yellow pear that looks like four grown together.

Varieties pictured (top to bottom, left to right)

Tomatoes- Black Beauty, Yellow Pear, Black Cherry, Pork Chop, German Johnson, Sungold

Beans- unknown variety of long bean

Eggplant- Millionaire, Japanese (by the bowl)

Cucumber- Armenian, Lemon (bowl)

Summer Squash- Zephyr, Zucchini

#moss’s garden #vegetable garden #garden harvest #gardening #food pic #I might do a variety review at the end of the season #I don’t eat most of what we grow so the taste notes would all be from my parents #but the way things grow matters to me #cherry tomato #tomatoes #eggplant #cucumbers #summer squash

its like that

#cucumber quest #noisemaster #something something this was heavily experimental something.... i just wanted an excuse to draw his face cracks #rheyre fun to draw . #anyways nonsensical rambling . you dont have to read past this point #i think its real neat how noisemaster can be interpreted . #like more specifically in terms of his sexuality n shit #because like . personally . . .aroace trans noisemaster real #BUT ALSO i think its cool seeing early plans for what couldve been . . #i think the closest to . current canon sexuality we have is a cropped image of gg saying hes not interested in dating #but back real early in development before it was decided the disaster masters would be kinda like #a family. #he and mute were originally gonna be something closer to dating . . #its fun to think about how he was gonna be gay . #it would be kinda weird though today because they r . twins . like canonically . #i hope all noise x mute believers fall down the stairs actually . i know they exist . #ive had a lot of people talk to me about how they ship them and it mskes me very severely uncomfortable #so hey . dont do that . dee en eye . i dont want freaks on my page . #sterotypical art tag

Man it'd be horrible if I had superspeed. I procrastinate everything to the last minute and it's only in the final hour that my panic levels are high enough to make enough adrenaline in my ADHD riddled brain to counteract the Nothing Response™ and actually kickstart The Task™.

It's bad enough that I literally wait until the last possible second to do anything ever but if I had superspeed?!?! BRUH. I would be waiting until the last second. Because I would have so much time!

And you know the time blindness would be infinitely worse with relative time. Like goddamn, I barely understand the flow of time as it is and it's been consistent my entire life! I can't imagine navigating that when it isn't consistent.

#i say as i actively procrastinate #i am #currently doing the thing i talked about #im chill as a fucking cucumber babe #i shouldn't be #i should be doing the thing #but im not #and i won't #until the anxiety kicks in and makes my brain do it #because my brain does not have chemicals without anxiety #it has no chemcal #no chemcl for me #God they all have adhd too. like genuinely. before the powers. they all had adhd. so they got ADHD and speed #fate worse than death i think #anyway wild given like my blog title and who i post about all the time but Barry Allen is my spirit animal #we both procrastinate and hyperfocus #we're both the quiet zoned out adhd that doesn't get diagnosed as a kid #both late to everything cause we got sidetracked #both know WAY too much about a specific field #both very academic focused #FUN FACT ABOUT ME! i was almost a forensic scientist i got accepted for the course i went to fake crime scenes and sat in on a live autopsy #fun times... #anyway now im working on my doctorate. adhd be damned! i fail upwards! woo! #sometimes I genuinely wonder how the fuck i got here in life. surely its a cosmic prank #(wanna clarify that i did not fail the Forensic Science course. i literally only applied cause that was the Flash job) #(so i checked it out and passed on it) #other things i got accepted to: pre med! psych! business! comp sci! a law school in England! #man high school me had no fucking clue what to do lmao. i was like 'ill apply to everything and just go where i get in' #then i got in everywhere and i was like '... fuck' #Forensic Science was really cool though. it was top of the list. they had an entire class on blood splatter?!?

someone remind me to post a really bizarre comment i got on ao3 here bc im reeling but first. one thing i like abt college (at least my college experience so far) is truly nobody gives a Single Shit. like my textural issues and picky eating made me nervous that ppl would be weird but like no we make light hearted jokes about me eating a full plate of plain pasta. i can experiment w new things and if i dont like it thats okay. i just made myself plain pita bread and my roommate saw me and i was like oh shit do i have to explain and so i told her a bit abt it and shes like no thats so real im heating up a popeyes leftover rn. like nobody cares about what i do and don't eat and if they invite me somewhere w food i dont want i can just decline and Oughhgh i fucking LOVE college bro

#nightmare.personal #i both hate college (the institution) and love college (the mental health relief of being here) #my college for unrelated reasons fucking SUCKS but #hehe people so niceys here... #also i was nervous ppl would be like why aren't you eating a diverse array of foods but #i have only received positive comments abt me getting stacks of cucumber slices instead of a salad #and my buddy eats basically the same meal every time we get lunch together so like he does not care either #ppl eat what they want and its so! <3 yeah #also even tho the dining hall is rated like shit here i actually like the dining hall food which means #auspicious prospects for literally every other school bc i know objectivley ours is ASS #but i do go crazy for their rice despite everything

subway order: veggie sandwich on sourdough (toasted on occasion) with pepperjack cheese. lettuce olive pepper avacado cucumber onion tomato. honey mustard or mayo depending on my mood. I rarely get subway but i always get this and it never. disappoints imo..

9/10 SEE I LIKE THIS VEGGIE SANDWICH. if someone ordered this i would enjoy making it a lot. however anytime i get someone ordering a vegetable sub at my job they only get like lettuce and mayo on it and thats it so it ruins my fun -.-

#asks #anon #we dont do avocado or cucumber where i work. punches ground. i would definitely get those things on my subs otherwise ogughh
