GreenTrickster's Den

This blog is my place to laugh and enjoy all that is good and fun in fandom and on the internet, and to forget about real life problems for awhile. I'm currently in multiple fandoms, including Ace Attorney, SVSSS, and Pokemon, amongst others. You can find info on my clone troopers by searching the tag 'clone names' and my figure photography with the tag 'strike a pose!' I will accept any pronouns you care to grant me.

Saw your (frankly genius) about Ethan's healing salves and sugar water being really great food for mushrooms, and have to share my two cents. Because it occurred to me, you know what sort of food mold really likes?

Bread.

Meaning that, if our two ideas were combined, Ethan's ultimate healing item would be a slice of bread and honey, which was too delightful an idea not to share. XD <3

that is a delightful idea and reading it made me want to make french toast when i get the chance. i'm just imaging ethan having a bunch of weird mold-based food cravings now though lol, like a grilled jam and cheese sandwich or hating salt and vinegar. im 100% confident that jam and cheese could taste edible if you use the right ingredients

[greentrickster]

Thanks, and that's an equally delightful idea! <3

Also, fun fact: you're completely right about the jam and cheese. A thing I know because my dad does it. Usually with softer cheeses and crackers, stuff like brie and apricot jam, blue cheese with grape jelly, or strawberry with sharp cheddar.

Even more fun fact: You know what Ethan would be deathly allergic to now? Garlic. Because it's an insanely effect natural mold killer. And what was it villagers had huge strings of hanging around their houses again? Hmmm...

Time for the ultimate fight.

Listen up, fish - you’re gonna be dinner no matter how many circles I need to chase you in whether you like it or not.

[fullbattleregalia]

The time has come for Ultimate Battle Round 2: Chicken Edition.

I’m calling you two Lunch and Breakfast.

[fullbattleregalia]

The Ultimate Battle continues in Round 3: The Bacon-ing.

Greetings, Supper. I think it’s time you met my friend, Hunting Knife.

Kantarou is finally (officially) missing! Time for Nagiri to be consumed by guilt introspect kick it into high gear and go find him!

Taking his beloved doggo Fuwamaru along with him, because tracking down the officially missing love of your life guy who drags you into trouble on a routine basis is no excuse for being a negligent dog parent!

Most people don't realize that meeting me is probably going to be the closest they're likely to get to seeing an in-real-life bardic knowledge check.

Because I have so much information in my head, a sizeable chunk of which I know because 'I heard about it in a song/story/movie/play.' I've always been like this, if I hear something in a story format, it's 90% more likely to stay with me than if it's just presented as a normal fact.

And then I went to university and put a bunch of points in gather information, so I'm able to double-check myself and either make sure I'm passing on correct information or gain a deeper understanding of what I've just remembered that's suddenly pertinent to the situation.

wikipedia no longer being anywhere near the top of search results when looking up anything feels eviscerating

[ichorandpride]

#they really said “you can’t use wiki as an academic source-use our garbage AI that’s even less reliable”#and you can’t even opt out of it

no but you can FORCE it away. use ublock origin and copy paste the blacklist i made into the filters to be able to remove the bullshit AI overview that google forces. it also removes youtube's forced ads (at least until they fix it)

you can also use the ublacklist extension and use this blacklist of AI image generation websites to curate your google image results

there are ALWAYS ways around stuff. it's just a matter of looking into it and asking around

[nicenice7]

I'M FREE

[alistairsprayerwarrior]

FOR WIKIPEDIA!!!!

[greentrickster]

If you're not comfortable going into your computer's code in any way, shape, or form (like me), you can also just type in [subject] wikipedia -ai.

It will automatically make the wikipedia entry for that topic the first option on the list. Also the '-ai' removes the GenAI overview and AI sources/images from the search.

Bonus mnemonic I came up with to remember 'thy' and 'thine' back when I not only had to learn all this, but be casual conversation fluent in it when I worked at the Renaissance Faire for a couple of years:

'Thy sky blue eyes.'

'Thine alpine slopes.'

Worked like a charm, and was easy to remember (as you can tell by the fact that I can still remember it off the top of my head four years later).

[greentrickster]

I got the door open and found the Last Judge!

And yeah, it took me a bunch of tries to beat her, but, once I caught onto the speed and patterns of her attacks, I actually enjoyed this fight a lot. It was one of those fights where, if there was any nonsense happening, it was very easy to tell that it was 100% my fault, and not the game playing silly buggers with me. Used the Wanderer's Crest (needed more speed for this than Reaper gives me), and have added another knot on my belt as the One Mask Master!

A challenge, but, once I got to her third stage, it didn't take many more tries to get her. Another boss successfully beaten, without any stupid deaths that made me have to go back and fight her all over again at all!

At all.

At all.

[greentrickster]

Me: (telling my sister about Zaun's city structure, because it's fascinating and I want to chew on it) It's roughly divided into three levels - with societal class levels literally going from higher to lower as you descend - Promenade, Entresol, and- ...fuck, I can't remember the last one.

Me: ...

Me: Scum level.

Me: That's wrong, but I can't remember the right word.

...

Me: (a few minutes later) SUMP, IT'S THE SUMP LEVEL.

[fullbattleregalia]

Fuck. This. Boat.

I have never died so many times to such an asinine section of gameplay because I was a fraction of a second too slow. How many times did I die?

NINETEEN TIMES!!! Maybe three of those were to actual enemies instead of Chris getting to this section of dock/boat about half a second late.

Dying because I didn’t dodge in time? Fine. Accidentally blowing myself up with the grenade launcher? Embarrassing but fair enough. But this? I died less to QTEs in OG RE4, and I’m horrible at QTEs. I have never come so close to actually throwing a controller in frustration.

[greentrickster]

#fuck this boat #can I go back to Tall Oaks? #there were no boats there #I’ve died so many times on a single chapter of an RE game before #I was so annoyed that my husband was actually the one who took these screenshots #he almost never takes screenshots but he figured I would want to rant about it later

...do you want to talk aboat it?

[futureblackwakandan-deactivated]

me hanging out with black people in the summer: “aye, yall don’t forget to put on sunscreen”

them: 

[futureblackwakandan-deactivated]

@flipflibberinflippinghell

Use the Walgreens Brand which is pretty cheap and it does wonders and doesn’t leave me with a white cast. And I’m dark as hell so I hate looking ashy but not all sunscreens are made equally and it’s one of the better ones I’ve used.

[angelic-tokkii-deactivated20220]

Wait cocoa/shea butter and coconut oil don’t protect you from the sun we really do need sunscreen??

[futureblackwakandan-deactivated]

Yea fam. All that “we don’t need sunscreen” shit is a myth. Combine that with the fact that most dermatologists don’t know how to spot skin cancer in Black people and it’s a nasty combination.

[jamaicanblackcastoroil]

Yeah, it’s harder for us to get it but when we do it’s deadly. I know two people who died of skin cancer, both were Black.

[lo-cotidiano]

“While incidence of melanoma is higher in the Caucasian population, a July 2016 study in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology showed it is more deadly in people of color. African American patients were most likely to be diagnosed with melanoma in its later stages than any other group in the study, and they also had the worst prognosis and the lowest overall survival rate.”

Sorry about the link, I’m on mobile. But this is from August 2016, which I know isn’t the most recent but it’s still SUPER IMPORTANT. Y’all please wear sunscreen. With Google it’s even easy to find smaller, Black-owned brands.

[sensei-aishitemasu]

https://blackgirlsunscreen.com/ is Black-owned!

[themardia]

I’m gonna second the rec for Black Girl Sunscreen, it’s affordable, Black owned, and immediately melts into the skin without leaving any gross white cast.

[greentrickster]

Okay, but the shipping nonsense we got up to in the original Yugioh fandom back in the early 2000s would probably kill modern fandom stone dead if they tried to interact with it. Like...

The shipping.

The lack of tagging.

The absolute disregard of anyone's age in-universe.

And far, far more.

Truly, we were so caught up with the fact that we could that many of us genuinely didn't consider whether we should.

And there are many things I enjoy about modern fandom, and AO3 is head and shoulders the best fanfiction website we've ever had.

But there are days I do miss the absolute insanity that was teen and young teen millennials discovering anime, fanfiction, and shipping with almost no guidelines or supervision.
