[ashrantsonhissideblog]

Whoa whoa whoa I got tagged twice :0

Thanks for the tags @lilyyyevans and @dumbte3nb0y mwah

I barely know any flowers oh god uh.... I heard there's purple roses? I really like purple and those sound cool (In Minecraft, my fav flower is the allium)

Purple and green currently :3

I don't have one singular one but I keep listening to Everybody Talks by Neon Trees all the time :D

Definitely spring, it can have snow (where I'm at, at least) but it can also be literal summer weather so you get the best of all seasons!! And my birthday's in spring so I'm totally not biased or anything...

Lasagna or Блины (basically Russian crêpes or at least that's how my Gramma makes em)

I'm currently reading Percy Jackson if that counts as a hobby??

This very specific chocolate cereal oat crunch thing I've been eating since I was four years old. I could eat that for every single meal and not complain for at least a month.

I'm not big on crystals but I own a small amethyst!!

The last is a hard one oh gods... I'm really not knowledgeable in art. Anything by Monet? Does that count? I went to an exhibit in like 2023 or something and that was really fun, I especially liked the way he drew Lily pads :p

Now a question by me: if you could be an animal, which animal would you choose to be?

No pressure tags: @starscriedrequiem @cocaineinlondon @dumbte3nb0y @janeiscompletelyfine @kaylalovegood @kitkat-moon-flameflower @sophi-spilled @theresastarmanwaitingforus + whoever else wants to participate!! (I kind of just tagged everyone I know)

[my-sanity-left-to-get-milk]

thanks for the tagg!!

i don't like flowers? (i watches tons of horror movies related to them, and now, they just weird me out with their texture hehe)

like a mossy green

currently, love Arabella by Arctic Monkeys

def summerrrr (it gets really hot BUT atleast I can eat all my fav food then!)

roast potatoesss :P

reading, sometimes writing?

idk much abt crystals but I like emeralds

idk much abt art either but based off what I've seen till now, The Scream by Edvard Munch. ppl say that it portrays anxiety in the modern world, and that is pretty much me at 3 am, when the stress of an exam finally hits so... yeah

I'd want to be a stag, i love salty things, and stags are always just leaping around carefree, not to mention they look majesticcc

but I'd also like to be a sealion (no explanation needed)

okayy, my question is, if all the foods in the world had the taste of one color, what color would you taste for the rest of your life?

no pressure! @whatonearthisgoingon @tenebris-lacrimam @standingintheforest @eves13 @rosekiller27 @yourshiningautumnoceancrashing @chocandcinnabon

[whatonearthisgoingon]

Goodness, so many questions.

1. What's your favorite flower? Spider Lilies

8. What's your favorite crystal? I wear emeralds with gold the most.

9. What’s your favorite work of art? Couldn't possibly pick one.

10. If you could be an animal, which animal would you choose to be? A house cat in a loving and stable home.

11. If all the foods in the world had the taste of one color, what color would you taste for the rest of your life? Probably red? Because meat is red, and I love meats, so.

12. If one animal species gained human communication abilities, which one do you think would be the funniest to witness? I'd love to have pandas mic'd up because I know they sound stupid as fuck.

Next?

THE GREAT CHOCAPOCALYPSE!

More than 70% of the world’s chocolate is produced by West African countries like Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire, and cocoa trees (our sweet drama queens) require ideal natural factors. Unfortunately, with climate change on the rise, the land there is facing the scorching sun with little to no rainfall, and those poor farmers have to watch everything shrivel up! 

It is scientifically predicted that, by 2050, half the cocoa trees will be wiped off the face of the Earth! That’ll make chocolate even rarer than gold. And you won’t get a taste of it, unless you become a billionaire, of course! Imagine birthdays without chocolate cake, exams without the comfort bars, and celebrations without those heavenly bonbons! Humankind without chocolate isn’t sad, it’s dangerous. 90% of the world would go berserk. Congratulations, humanity! You have finally unlocked the level at which you dragged chocolate into the vicious chain of climate change destruction. Cherish that chocolate in your hand, cause you will never see it again, unless…it doesn’t have to end that way! Sustainable farming, fair wages to the farmers (they get only $1 per day! That’s inhumane), and agroforestry without having to clear more land can save those magical cocoa beans! Support honest and ethical brands, spread awareness about the plight of those farmers and make small attempts at saving the environment in any and every possible way within your capacity. This may not sound heroic, but it’s the closest thing to saving the Earth. So next time you bite into that luscious chocolate bar, don’t just peel that silver foil off, don’t just taste the sweetness, taste the responsibility that you have for it, taste the labour behind it, taste the time that it took to grow into something so exquisite.

Help, this is too accurate!

It's always the kettle calling the pot black, or was it the other way around? idk im confused, man.

ANYWAYS, KEEP THAT ENERGY AMAZING! WALK WITH YOUR HEAD HELD HIGH, CAUSE WHOEVER'S READING THIS, YOU'RE GORGEOUS, THOUGH YOU ALREADY KNOW THAT!

[poe-eticallyyours]

Need help. Mentally. PRAY FOR ME!

So...I applied to my dream school. And it has a 1.5% acceptance rate. I mean I do think I write pretty well, and I can convey my thoughts well too, and I do want to change the world quite literally. I AM STRESSING OUT RIGHT NOW! WHAT WILL I DO IF I GET REJECTED! THAT SCHOOL HAS THE MOST PERFECT SCIENCE LABORATORIES AND I CAN ROMANTICISE STUDYING AND WRITING BY A WINDOW THAT LOOKS OVER A RIVER!

PRAY FOR ME, MY DUDES! PEACE OUT!

"A word of advice: if someone compliments you as 'sweet like cinnamon', it isn't a compliment. Try scooping some cinnamon and stuffing it in your mouth, and tell me what you taste. It most definitely isn't sweet." ~@poe-eticallyyours

Lana del Ray ain't Lana del Raying, cause cinnamon isn't sweet, I regret eating a spoonful of it to test it out. (RADIO REFERENCE)
