The surreal ”Pink elephants on parade” hallucination/nightmare scene in the original Dumbo film. 5 year old me had nightmares about that one. To be fair though, it IS pretty unnerving :D

In honor of scary media month: what is the first piece of media you remember truly frightening you as a child?

Good job, tiny adventure buge! You have officially reached 200,000km! Have a celebratory slice of cake. (The car did not eat the cake. I don’t think cars understand the concept of “eat” or “cake”.)

One time I managed to find the exact spot where that photo was taken on google maps

Also, a study of tomatoes! I wanted to see if it’s at all possible to grow tomatoes outdoors (no greenhouse) in our very short season. We tried Black Prince (red-brown ones) and Galapagos (yellow small ones) varieties, both heritage varieties allegedly good for cold climates. Did they succeed? …

Okay, a final harvest of zucchini and pumpkins before the night frost kills them! The angry zucchini plant alone made ~15kg of fruit, and the others a few kg each. Pumpkins… the first generation was eaten by wild animals. This is the second gen, that only had about a month to grow.

One suggestion for a romantic autumn evening together with your husbando: Get all muddy together harvesting one wheelbarrow full of potatoes!

We're preparing something much anticipated! Our next commission opening will be SOON, and will feature *drum roll*... ✨ A prototype opening for fullsuits/bodysuits! ✨ Yes, that's right, we're finally going to dip our claws into something much requested!

An absolute beast in our rather harsh soil and climate: the black chokeberry! The bush has spontaneously grown in our garden, perhaps from a seed dropped by a bird. The yield is huge and easy to pick! The berries have an exotic flavour combo of being both very sweet and astringent at the same time.

Shrooming it up with two very different forest mushroom dishes: Stewed chanterelles with potatoes. Very subtle, creamy and gentle flavours. Peppery milk cap with raw onion on bread. Very intense, punchy and spicy flavours. This mushroom is a particular favourite of mine with its peppery taste!

Please excuse the terrible quality image, but… No. Nope. Absolutely not. I do not want it. Go away. Even more reason to be happy I started the de-googling process some time ago.

Fairly easy! My sona was originally just an unspecified bird, but I later started liking the idea of it being an osprey. So: osprey. I’ve seen one just outside the house. 😁 (Modifying my sona a bit to make it more osprey-like has been on the to-do list for several years now. xD )

here's a fun question for you: what would your fursona be if it had to an animal that *actually lives in your area*? hard mode: no domesticated animals with a consequentially global range--that would mean, for example, canid and ungulate species have to be species actually found in the wild

Niels made a cartoon especially for me and it's so good :) www.facebook.com/CouldBeWorse...

Turns out the forage rape (cultivar of brassica napus, ie. turnip and canola/rapeseed) we grew as a cover crop for soil improvement, with no ambitions of any real harvest, is EXTREMELY productive and resilient, moreso than any vegetable I have *ever* grown or seen in veggie gardens!

Pink potatoes, golden chanterelles and dark green kale. A colourful harvest from our garden!~

I have a very particular taste in apples, consisting of two scales, flavour (sweet-sour) and texture (crunchy-soft) Crunchy & sour: the best! Favourite type of apple Crunchy & sweet: Also very good Soft & sweet: Mid-tier, not bad, not great Soft & sour: Unpleasant, good only as cooking apples

The amount of times I repeat ”kiitos” in a customer service interaction feels ridiculous Me: Yksi X, kiitos [one X, please] Them: *hands me X* Me: Kiitos. [Thanks] *pays* Them: Kuittia? [Receipt?] Me: Ei kiitos. [No thanks] Them: hyvää päivänjatkoa! [have a nice day] Me: Kiitos samoin! [you too!]

The angry zucchini plant we designated as a seed producer is really, really growing and conquering. Look at the size of this fruit! We’re going to have some angry zucchini indeed next year.

Despite having been into RPGs my entire life, I don’t think I’ve been particularly interested in the lore or story of any game, ever. I don’t care about The Prophecy or the details about [fantastic name of place/person]. Just let me immerse myself in the world in my own way and make my own story.

No hate, no dogpiling, just curious. For me, it's Skyrim. Don't know why, considering it should be exactly my kind of game, but it just didn't click for me.

I turned 32! Nice number, a power of two. We had a solar eclipse on the same day. And, the eclipse was during the same time of day as I was born 32 years ago, in the evening, a bit before sunset. What ancient prophecies did I just activate? :D
