Idea: Stu getting that damn pheromone perfume for… obvious reasons
Lmao yeah, he would definitely do this. Stu's the kind of dude who would see those old axe commercials with the girls horny attacking dudes wearing it, and be like "I wonder if it works on dudes too-" leading to him spraying axe all over himself, leading to Billy hosing him down like a dog who got into some muck and throwing the axe away.
Also ok. I'm so sorry but I have to do an info dump about pheromones, it's not relevant and you can ignore it if you want but I just need to say:
There's only solid evidence of one actual pheromonal effect in humans, and it's the one that syncs up people's menstrual cycles. Pheromones are chemical compounds released by one individual that are picked up by another individual, and they trigger a consistent physical response. An example is that theres a compound in male mouse urine that triggers the onset of puberty in female mice.
Pheromones aren't processed in the same place as other scent information, they're processed by a specialized area called the vomeronasal organ (VNO). Other animals that have a lot of known pheromonal effects (cats, dogs, rodents, ect.) have a pretty big VNO, but in human's the VNO is vestigial, which basically means that evolution has been deselecting it, so it's shrunken, atrophied, and functionless (aside from maybe doing the menstrual cycle syncing thing, but we don't even have evidence that the VNO is responsible for processing that).
There's some evidence of things that could be pheromonal effects, for example, human babies will crawl towards the scent of their own mother's milk, but in order for this to be a pheromonal effect we would need to be able to isolate a single chemical compound that causes this behaviour and that hasn't happened yet. It's possible those babies are just reacting to the scent of their mother, which is made up of a mix of chemicals, so that wouldn't be a pheromonal effect.
Based on how inconsistent the evidence is around pheromones in humans it's unlikely that we have any super strong pheromonal effects, which isn't surprising. We're a species with a big frontal lobe so we do a lot more thinking and a lot less automatic reacting than other animals, so if we do still react to pheromones they probably only act to alter how likely a behaviour is top happen, rather than directly triggering the behaviour, so that makes them a lot harder to study and prove. But it also means theres not likely any specific pheromone that will make you irresistibly attractive to possible partners.
tl;dr: If you see something claiming to contain pheromones that will drive the people wild it's probably a lie

Random Cyberpunk: Edgerunners headcanons because I desperately miss my blorbos and was absolutely DEVASTATED by what the show did to them:
Maine tried to set up a swear jar but it never really caught on because every few weeks Rebecca would dump like 500 eddies in the jar at a time with the explanation of “I’m paying my monthly fuck allowance”
Kiwi and Dorio have a girls night every week where they get really drunk while getting mani-pedis and bitch about everything
David and Lucy are both autistic and hate fabric textures (hence the whole “walking around the apartment butt ass naked” thing)
Falco is terrible at cooking in every way conceivable BUT makes a mean grilled cheese sandwich
Rebecca and Pilar both have ADHD
Kiwi doesn’t save people’s names in her phone and has her friends memorized by number and it scares them
David and Rebecca will sometimes just start vocal stimming back and forth
Maine once walked in on the two of them going back and forth saying “beebus borbus” at each other over and over again
Maine and Dorio met when they were both in the army
Pilar has a ridiculous skincare routine
Rebecca once drank an entire container of Pilar’s lotion after he accused her of stealing it
David has sensory issues with carbonation and therefore absolutely DESPISES seltzers/fizzy drinks
He always gives Rebecca fizzy drinks that people buy for him and she gets absolutely wasted because of this
Maine snores insanely loudly. Dorio Hates It. She has banished Maine to the couch many times.
Lucy was a Warrior Cats kid
Maine liked to call his payments to Gloria “child support” even though he is in no way related to David
Pilar cries at those ASPCA commercials
Kiwi refuses to use the wrist strap on the Wii remote and has chucked it through the TV multiple times playing Wii bowling
Dorio adores children in theory but can’t tolerate them for more than 5 minutes
Lucy carries pepper spray and a taser at all times and uses them on people who annoy her
Falco used to wear a fedora but it got stolen and he never fully recovered
Maine wears socks with flip flops

TAVS.
bg3 spoilers ahead!
aurora (gold dragonborn cleric of mielikki) grew up in the woods, far away from the city. she likes animals and once spent three days chasing a unicorn, just to see what it did. on a diplomatic trip to stop logging that was infringing on a grove once considered sacred to mielikki, she got abducted. pokey sticks and fire breath quickly proved to be the best way to make her way through her new life. on the way she fell head over heels for the two dumbasses who got fucked by the Hells. so they decided to start saving people, hunting things. and now it's wyll and wyll's wife aurora and aurora's wife karlach's family business. yay hell polycule!
Tumblr media
(aurora is the reason i call wyll my wife. he's just. my wife <3)
kassandra (seladrine drow warlock) has never been to the underdark. she has a cousin there, on her mom's side, maybe? she grew up in baldur's gate and made a career for herself as a shrewd businesswoman (she makes jewelry; that's how she got warlockéd). using people's impressions of drow against them is like her primary skill and it works surprisingly often despite the fact that she is 5'3" on a good day and has the face of a disney princess. she also has the animal skills of one. aurora is steve irwin, kassandra is cinderella. karlach and kassandra were instant besties, which evolved in the sapphic tradition of "surely she doesn't mean it like that haha" until kassandra just straight up said she wanted to make out with karlach.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(i haven't finished her playthrough yet because i'm afraid teehee)
winter (avariel [mod, winged elf] bard) is your manic pixie dream girl. i stole her name and most of her appearance from Winter The Lunar Chronicles because i am a silly little criminal. winter has never met a problem she could not make marvel-esque quips at, much to shadowheart's eternal chagrin. desperately wants karlach to teach her that silly tiktok dance she's always doin So Bad. her adventure is a very strange change of pace for her because she was previously a tavern waitress/occasional entertainer when there was literally no other option. as such, she does not know how to use weapons really at all and makes everyone else protect her (insert pleading face emoji). anyways, she's the golden retriever gf to shart's black cat gf.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(her wings get in the way of every cutscene but i still love her)
marie (human durge paladin) is like if tinkaton was a person. she hates the murderhobo ps5 in her brain and loves weird little guys (gale). voted most likely to cry at dog food commercials. i really haven't played much of her, so i haven't decided on much backstory for her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(i just think she's a little funny)
the one that only sort of counts.
cynthia (tiefling wild magic sorcerer) is literally just my OC who got isekaid to faerun. the only people who know this are the """dream guardian""", the gods, and the three dipshits and their lame goddess. she's there to cause problems and live up to her old nickname: Godkiller. her fake persona, Lady Cynthia Tav, is from a little town on the coast and enjoys the finer things in life. her most fervent desire is to have a spray bottle so she can get astarion to stop that (at any given moment, "that" ranges from mild horniness to wanting to violently murder people). she is beginning to understand what it was like for her brother to raise her.
Tumblr media
(don't have many pics of her, but she's the most frequent subject of my drawings)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
there's a bunch of more in my notebook that i doodle in while playing

🎧 johnny is a super laid back, go with the flow, vibe until you can’t no-more kind of person. it’s really hard to throw him off his rhythm, though evermore has thrown tons of wrenches into his tires to try to get him to spiral off the road. johnny just keeps letting it roll.  🎧 as much as he likes to consider himself an unbiased dj, the way he’s feeling tends to reflect itself in the music he plays. he’s gotten some… criticism for the questionable selections he makes sometimes, but he just thinks that everyone needs to relax and just trust him. or drink more so he sounds better. whichever was easier. 🎧 johnny’s got a thing for brunettes… well, more like girls with dark hair. dark hair and pale skin and big beautiful eyes he can stare at forever before his eyes start to sting because he forgot to blink. it also helps if they’re a vampire, toootttally helps if they’re a vampire. also if their name starts with an m. all letters are good letters but…. m is special. 🎧 johnny is a bit of an airhead sometimes, but in his heart he means well. he may not be the most textbook intelligent kind of guy but he cares too much for his own good sometimes. he’s willing to trust just about anyone and always assumes the best of people. even monsters — especially monsters. 🎧 he got used to wearing clothes that were too big on him, and it became a style that just kind of stuck. johnny holds a personal vendetta against the person who said parachute pants “aren’t in style” and always makes sure to buy his shirts two sizes too big. he prefers thrifting because it’s cheap, but also because you find some of the wildest shit on those tee-shirt racks…. and who doesn’t want a tee-shirt that has a big picture of a moth that says “uh, ya’ll got any lamps??” they’re crazy!! 🎧 johnny isn’t much of a drinker, but boy does he indulge in weed. johnny loooovveeess weed. He’ll smoke it anyway, at anytime, for any reason, with anyone.  🎧 johnny’s got a weird thing for nice smelling shampoo. the rest of his hygiene routine is pretty basic but he loves getting the overly-complex scented shampoos at the store. you can likely find him in the shower aisle of a store sniffing every bottle with a name that has more than two words in it. his favorite right now “passion flower rice milk”... since when did rice make milk?? that was sick.  🎧 as goofy and unserious as he finds himself to be sometimes, johnny has a big heart. he loves deeply, cares immensely, and even when he can’t find the words to say what he means — his eyes will speak it for him. then again, johnny is scared of his big feelings sometimes and will be the first to tuck them away for the sake of someone else. he’ll happily put himself and his feelings off to the side if it will make things easier on someone else. love’s all about sacrifice or something like that, right ?? 🎧 neverland is where he spends most of his time when he isn’t at the tavern or out looking for mavis. if he’s working, he’s obviously there. If he’s not, he’s likely still there. johnny loves karaoke and making a huge fool of himself on stage, feeling like the coolest guy in the world when he’s up and making people dance and sing and laugh. he wants to have a good time, so in turn, he wants others to have a good time too.

Ok everyone first off I want to say happy new years, 2024 everybody! and second there's this idea that I wrote on my book and I'd like to share it with you guys. it's been a while Since Poppy Playtime introduced us with the smiling critters and they are so cute and adorable I like the idea of a stuffed toys that has a perfume inside for the spray, it's so adorable. Anyways so about this story idea I have is a crossover with some fandoms, the title is named:
Queen Fairy and Fandoms in: Smiling Critters Saga
About: basically it's about Queen Fairy and the fandoms bought the smiling critters after watching the commercial however they soon to realise the dark truth of these cute grinning animal toys.
Part 1: The Recall: When Playtime Co. announced the new smiling critters toys, the fandom gang decided to go and buy their own smiling critter, the list of the characters and their critters are below:
Queen Fairy(me) - Crafty Corn
King Olly(Paper Mario) - Catnap
Jesse(Minecraft Story Mode) - Hoppy Hopscotch
Espresso Cookie (Cookie Run Kingdom) - Bubba Bubaphant
Joseph (SML Youtube) - Kickin Chicken
Junior (SML Youtube) - Dog Day
Cody (SML Youtube) - Bubba Bubaphant *but had to switch to Picky Piggy because Espresso Cookie Complained that he and Cody can't both be Bubba Bubaphant*
One day King Olly explains to the group about that strange he had about a purple cat like monster or something, then later that day the news display on tv explaining the catnap dolls is giving everyone nightmares as of that they announce the recall of the Cat Nap toys. The group was shock except Olly who just joked off for some reason saying that he's sorry for those who have the toy, that was then Queen Fairy looked at Olly for that comment and realised Olly actually has Cat Nap. Soon they decided to create a plan to take the Cat Nap toy from Olly.
I also got this ideal of Olly being a little Karen before buying and liking Cat Nap.
Part 2: The Cat Nap Case: The summary of this part is shorter than the part 1 summary.
We follow along Officer Brooklyn Guy and Officer Simmons from SML on YouTube as they're working on the Case of Cat Nap and with the help of Warder and his associates from Minecraft Story Mode.
well these are the only two parts I have wrote so far, I also have this other idea for later part of this story where, they're being taken to playtime Co. by the smiling critters where the fandoms are being mind controlled by them to be some minions or just act like children just doing what they're told by a toy.
The fandoms who are mind controlled by their smiling critter, they may laugh when chasing after the remaining group as if they're playing chase. there's also gonna be more characters from other fandoms in this story as well.
I don't know how this story will be like and I don't know if I'll might continue this on....maybe? so what do you guys think? if you have any opinions about this fell free to comment below, I hope you guys like and enjoy this story idea I have and Stay Safe and Kawaiii.
Bye!

The standard beach episode
Slightly NSFW
Tumblr media
It's 9:00 AM which is too early for Dante to be up right now. He's hungover yet again and notices his door being slammed wide open. It was Nero. Figures. "Whaddya want kiddo? Can't you see I'm trying to get some beauty sleep?"
Nero was yelling something about how he's had this trip planned for months and how Dante wasn't going to ruin it. His nephew then took a toothbrush and attached it to his arm. Dante's teeth were soon cleaner than a Colgate commercial. He then grabbed some clothes and threw them into a suitcase. "God you stink! At least where we're going you can wash off." Before Dante could protest and ask what the hell Nero was talking about, he was flung into the Devil May Cry van.
"Everybody's here then?" said Nico. Nero gave her a thumbs up and she then put the vehicle in motion, leaving burnt tire tracks all over the road. Nico made Mrs. Frizzle look like a Sunday driver.  Dante was still waking up and took notice of everyone on board. There was Nico and Nero, that was a given but he then happened to notice Trish, Lady and Vergil. He tried to sleep but it was like being in bed but if that bed was actually a bumper car.
Dante then tried to think of something calming. He then conjured an image of a pizza in his brain. It had just been taken out of the oven, the steam wafting through the air. The crust was just right and the cheese was gooey when he cut into it. He let out a moan. He then was just about to take a bite when he woke up from his vision and screamed in pain. Why did everything sting? He looked at Lady and noticed a spray bottle (likely filled with holy water).
"LADY, WHAT THE HELL, I'M NOT A CAT!" he screamed. "You're right. I'd say you're actually more like a dog. You both hump everything in sight." Dante looked down a noticed he had an errection. "Whoops, sorry about that..."  He needed to save his pizza fetish thoughts for when he was alone. Next thing he knew, Nico shouted "We're here y'all!"
Dante stepped outside and noticed they were at a beach. "This is nice kid. Only one problem. I didn't bring any swim trunks." Nero then held up the suitcase and threw it towards his uncle. "I brought some just in case you forgot. Now go get changed. You can bathe in the water." He let out a laugh. "Aw. I was hoping to go skinny dipping!" Vergil crinkled his nose in disgust.
There were a small set of bathrooms that everyone got changed in. They were now just waiting for Dante. Everyone had standard attire except for Vergil. He was wearing a blue snorkeling suit? Lady tried to ask him about it but he started going on about something called Metal Gear Solid 2 and she went back to hangout with Trish because she's not a nerd.
The door opened and everyone's eyes popped wide open, Nico screaming "MY EYES!" while Vergil nearly vomited. "WHAT THE FUCK DANTE!" shouted Nero. It turns out that his uncle had taken one of the red swim trunks out of the case and had fashioned it so he now wore a mankini, borat style. He started doing strange gestures while saying "I like you, do you like me?" in a funny voice. "Can anyone translate?" asked Trish. "Do not attempt to understand my brother, it will only bring you down to his level." said Vergil.
"Anyone up for beach ball?" Dante and Vergil wound up on a team despite Vergil's refusal to do so, leaving them against Nero and Trish. This left Lady as referee and Nico being the cheerleader. Neros team was in the lead due to the twins not being able to work well together. Vergil would attempt to show off while Dante would fight his brother for the chance to hit the ball, leading to more arguments than play time.
Each time Vergil went for the ball Dante would glide in front of him while sticking his chest out. This time he caught the ball in his pectorals. His brother yelled something about how this wasn't a dead or alive game and then quit the match, automatically causing their team to forfeit. He then went to go read his book of poems. "GAME OVER!" shouted Lady.
The rest of the group disbanded. Lady was shooting mosquitos with her pressurised water gun and Trish was surfboarding. Nico had a metal detector and was searching for junk hidden in the sand. Nero tried to talk her out of it but she said "one man's trash is another's treasure." As long as she wasn't causing mayhem he didn't care. That just left him and his uncle.
"Having a good time?" Nero asked. Dante sighed. "Yeah. It reminds me of the time mom took us to the beach and we made sandcastles. Vergil's was better so I kicked it down. He tried to get back at me by blowing sand in my eyes so then I put wet clumps of sand down the back of his shorts. Mom was furious." Nero thought to himself sarcastically "I can't imagine why."
He then took out an icebox. "I brought some ice cream if you guys want any. It was handmade by Kyrie so you better not say anything bad about- WAIT! WHERE DID IT GO!? THERE WAS A FULL THING OF ICE CREAM IN HERE!" Nero was looking around frantically. He then noticed his uncle tip toeing away. Nero went into Devil Trigger mode. "DANTEEEEE! WHAT DID YOU DO!?"
Knowing the jig was up, Dante turned around sheepishly. He had blue bits of ice cream decorating his face while his cheeks were fatter than a squirrel storing nuts in its mouth. "DANTE! THAT WAS THE SPECIAL SEA SALT ICE CREAM THAT KYRIE MADE!" His uncle swallowed with a nervous look. "If it makes you feel any better, it was really good!" Nero then lunged at his uncle and screamed "I'M GOING TO KILL YOU AND THEN SOME!"
This was loud enough for Vergil to notice and put down his book. "I expect nothing less of my kin. Go son. Make your father proud!" Nico turned to Lady and Trish. "Is there anything in particular that we're supposed to do?" Lady shook her head. "It's best if they get tired from fighting it out. That's usually what we let them do." Nico then asked "What about Mr. Vergil?" Trish snorted. "If anything he's enjoying this fight and won't stop it anytime soon."
Several hours later and uncle and nephew were on their knees, trying their best to punch each other. "NEROOOOOOOO!" "DANTEEEEEEEEE!" Trish then walked over and said "You guys done yet?" Nero said "Just a second." and then punched his uncle so hard that he fell on his back. With his last remaining breaths, Dante said "You're pretty good..." and the passed out.
The sun was setting so the gang dragged Dante and returned to the van. They dropped him off at his business. Literally. Nero shoved his uncles unconscious body out of the van and left it on the Devil May Cry doorstep. They drove off and Dante woke up the next afternoon covered in filth with a pounding headache. "Must have been some crazy kinda party! Well I'm hungry for pizza in more ways than one so let's get busy!"

WTYP: The Shandor Building, Part 5
[Do you like the colour of the fanfic? This is long and if you expand it you're gonna get the whole thing, because Tumblr hates you. Don't say I didn't warn you!]
Tumblr media
Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4
Part 5: Alice's Pick
[Beware of strong language, mention of all kinds of death, gore, and Lovecraftian horror.]
Tumblr media
[SLIDE: Ad with blue background, WTYP avatars on yellow, and PO box information, but it appears to be dripping a certain amount of pink slime.]
[soothing music]
R [voice-over]: Hi, it’s Justin. This is a commercial for the podcast you’re already watching. People are annoyed by these so I’ll get right to the point: We’ve pissed off an ancient Sumerian deity and we may not live through this. Thank you for joining the Patreon, we really appreciate it, but we need a little more help. I’d say “pray for us,” but I think we’re trapped in some kinda pocket dimension, and it may not do any good. Far be it from me to impose upon your religion, or lack thereof, in any case. If you know anything about Gozer the Gozerian, or ancient Sumer, you might want to update their Wikipedia pages, because we do somehow still have our laptops and what appears to be a working internet connection, but by the time you see this it’ll probably be too late. So, for the first time ever, don’t join the Patreon. Or do, if you want. It’s your call. I’m sure my cats will appreciate the money in the event of my untimely disappearance or death. And, as always, we do not want to die. Now, back to the show.
Tumblr media
[SLIDE: Gozer the Gozerian, the Ghostbusters version, with Vinz Clortho and Zuul.]
G: HOW ARE MY LEVELS? TEST. TEST.
D: No, you don’t need to, uh… Fine, actually. Thank you for turning down the howling noise.
G: NO PROBLEM. JUST LET ME KNOW WHEN WE ARE BACK FROM THE BREAK.
D: We’re already… Uh, yes. We’re back in, uh, three, two, one…
G: MY NAME IS GOZER THE GOZERIAN, I AM THE ENTITY THAT IS SPEAKING NOW, AND MY PRONOUNS ARE XE AND XEM.
A: Neopronouns! That’s interesting!
G: THEY ARE ANCIENT SUMERIAN PRONOUNS.
A: Oh. Lovely.
L: Sweet, I don’t think we’ve had one of those before.
A: …and I’m not just saying that because this form you’ve taken is smoking hot.
G: THESE ARE VINZ CLORTHO AND ZUUL, WE DO NOT SPEAK MUCH, AND OUR PRONOUNS ARE WE AND US.
R: That’s a bit presumptuous.
A: And I am there for it! Are they, er, are “we” your pets, Lord Gozer, or is it more of a polycule?
G: YES.
A [thrilled]: I don’t think it’s going to solve anything, but this podcaster is definitely becoming more rigid!
D: Please don’t make me get the spray bottle, the control room is full of slime.
A [wistful]: “Control room,” what a lovely thought.
R: Are we gargoyles or grotesques?
G: WE ARE YOUR DOOM!
[thunder, lightning, gales of wind]
R: Oh.
G: AND WE IDENTIFY AS TERROR DOGS.
L: Aww. Tummy rubs.
G: SO, ARE ANY OF YOU GODS?
R: We are definitely gods. I misspoke before, and I apologize. We are all gods here, thanks.
A: We’re a regular pantheon! Is that a knockoff Rolex you’re wearing?
G: I ALSO HAVE A CAMERA.
A [awestruck]: Fuck.
G : IF YOU ARE THE GODS OF THIS WORLD THEN WE MUST FIGHT…
A [happily]: I promise I’ll lose!
G: …TO THE DEATH.
A: Oh. Nevermind. Damn.
R: This Wikipedia page badly needs updating.
G [with mild irony]: ARE ANY OF YOU GOING TO SHOOT AT ME DURING THE NEGOTIATION AND VOID THE TERMS OF THE DUEL?
[slight pause, frantic shuffling]
D: We don’t have any proton packs, do we?
A: I have a bit of cheese in my purse, and a Slimfast bar…?
D: Proton, not protein!
A: I KNOW, I’M JUST VERY NERVOUS!
R: I got this here laptop and a stapler, I guess. Shame nobody uses CRTs anymore, at least they accelerate particles…
L: Uh, no?
G: THEN, AS THIS IS YOUR WORLD, I CEDE THE FIRST PICK OF FORM TO YOU.
L [excited]: We get to pick our form?
D: Uh, I don’t think…
L: I mean, I’m totally a god, so I knew that. It’s just cool! I’m gonna be a ‘93 Nissan Lamassu!
D: Liam…
R [quietly]: We can’t actually pick our forms.
A [muttering]: I can, but it’s a bit of a process…
D [raising voice, trying to sound confident]: Um… We choose the form of an engineering disasters podcast!
G: WOULD YOU NOT PREFER THE FORM OF SOMETHING SLIGHTLY MORE POPULAR?
L: Ouch.
R [defiant]: No.
A: God, I want liposuction.
D: We’re good like this, Lord Gozer! Thanks!
G: VERY WELL. THEN I CHOOSE THE FORM OF AN ENGINEERING DISASTER.
A: Shit.
R: Makes sense.
L: Yeah, probably should’ve seen that coming.
D: I’m so sorry, you guys.
A: S’all right, Dev. You tried.
R: I died doing what I love… Podcasting and editing a Wikipedia page for accuracy. And I got to ride a high speed train made of meat.
L [raising voice]: Hey, Gozer! Which engineering disaster? There’s a lot of ‘em! You haven’t been back here for a while, buddy, we’ve had a few more fun ones.
R: Yeah, these billionaires got crushed in a submarine of their own making, that was fun…
A [hyperventilating]: Oh, God. Oh, God…
D: Rocz, shut the hell up!
[crinkling wrapper, sound of Alice self-soothing by eating a bit of cheese]
G: THAT DOES SOUND INTERESTING. MAY I BORROW YOUR LAPTOP AND HAVE A LOOK?
L [quickly]: No! Engineering disasters don’t have laptops!
R: Y2K…
D: Shut up!
G: CHOOSE THE FORM OF YOUR ENGINEERING DISASTER!
L: All right. This is it.
D: Nobody say anything. Nobody think anything! Play dead! Eventually, xe may get bored!
A: Like a grizzly bear?
D: Happy thoughts, Alice. Happy thoughts. Anything but an engineering disaster…

posting this for anyone who doesn't have AO3 <3
this is from last month and it's a bit of a shitpost so I wanted to post this before I get to the good stuff. enjoy!
Disgust rolled her eyes at Joy as she watched the yellow emotion break down in another laughing fit as Riley watched various TikTok videos of poorly-made memes such as cats meowing to the beat of the music and manipulated videos of Burger King commercials with low-quality music in the background for the umpteenth time this week. Ever since Riley was given permission to download the app, Joy had made sure to save every single video she found even slightly humorous to Riley's phone- which, considering that she bursts out laughing when leaves fall on the ground, was a pretty long list.
Disgust covered her ears as Joy's laughing reached a crescendo, and the rest of the emotions soon followed suit.
"Oh my god Joy, it is NOT that funny" Disgust hissed, backing out of the way as Anger flared up and Fear jumped three feet in the air in shock.
Joy pulled herself off the floor and composed herself, turning to face her. A wide grin spread across her face. "Oh come on! It might be stupid, but it's funny! Have some fun and quit being so uptight!"
Disgust huffed in annoyance, crossing her arms. "You can have as much "fun" as you want, as long as you don't shatter my eardrums with your incessant laughing."
It was Joy's turn to roll her eyes this time, ignoring her as she propped her elbows on the console and turned back to the screen.
Riley scrolled to another video. This time a picture of a loaf of bread spun in circles while a distorted version of "blurred lines" played in the background.
Joy clamped her hands on her mouth as she attempted to choke back her laughter, on the verge of exploding into another laughing fit.
Disgust glared at her from her place at the console. "Don't you dare ," Disgust threatened, staring daggers into the yellow emotion.
Joy choked before momentarily gaining control of herself, but it was evident to all of them the dam was about to break. Much like Anger couldn't control his temper and Sadness couldn't stop herself from crying, it was only a matter of time before the embodiment of happiness could prevent herself from laughing.
Another video popped up, this time with a bass-boosted fart played over a car crash. 
"DON'T-" Disgust didn't get to finish her sentence as Joy burst into another uproar of laughter, losing control of herself and spraying spit all over the buttons on the console, causing Disgust to throw herself away from it and letting out a scream as she frantically fanned herself in discomfort.
"EW!!! JOY, WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU????" She screamed at the emotion who was currently laughing too hard to hear her. Not like she was paying attention to her anyways.
Joy fell to the ground again, gasping and wheezing as she rolled on the floor.
Disgust rubbed at her temple and wondered what in God's name did she do to have to be stuck with these idiots. Then turned to Sadness who was watching Joy with a small smile on her face. "Honestly, what do you even see in her?"
Sadness perked up, slightly startled as the green emotion suddenly put the spotlight on her. "I- um, well... she's sweet.. and... caring... and.... she’s kinda hot too..." She whispered, her eyes widening as soon as she realized what she just said.
Disgust whipped around to the blue emotion, giving her a look that said "did you just say what I think you said?"
Sadness began to backtrack, a blush spreading across her face as she attempted to cover up her hidden affection for the yellow emotion, who was currently still engulfed in a laughing fit. "Uh... I mean.. s-she's really…. pretty?" Sadness mentally slapped herself and wished a black hole would come in and take her now.
Disgust turned to Joy, who was still rolling around wheezing on the ground, and waved a hand in front of her face. “You heard what your girlfriend said about you?"
Joy pulled herself off the floor and on her feet, still giggling slightly. She glanced at Sadness, who was attempting to hide in her sweater. Joy laughed at the sight, throwing her arm around her and resting her head on hers. "What did you say about me, Sadness?"
"Nothing," Sadness quickly replied, turning her head away from her and silently praying that she would just drop the subject. But, unfortunately for her, Joy never seemed to know when to quit, even when she needed to.
"Aw, don't be like that!" Joy pressed. "I bet it was something sweet, right, blueberry? "
Sadness' blush worsened thanks to Joy's pet name for her. "I.. said you were pretty. That's all." Sadness mumbled, hoping Joy would buy it.
"Actually, she said you were hot ." Disgust interrupted, her arms crossed with an evil smile on her face, smirking at the horrified look Sadness gave her before burying herself deeper into her sweater to the point where they couldn't see her eyes anymore.
Joy's eyes widened, shocked that the quiet and timid emotion who usually stumbled over her own words when trying to compliment her and blushed dark blue when Joy would hold her hand had enough courage to call her hot in front of her. 
Joy's smile widened, turning her girlfriend around to face her and pulling her sweater back down to its original position before grabbing her face and kissing her on the forehead.
"Do you think I'm hot, sweetie?" Joy teased, her smile growing wider as Sadness' cheeks darkened in hue while refusing to make eye contact. Sadness mumbled something unintelligible that Joy didn’t quite catch which caused her to laugh. “Telllll meeee…” Joy urged, bringing Sadness’ face close enough that their noses were touching.
Sadness made an attempt to escape, which failed since Joy was gripping onto her as if she’d melt through the cracks on the floor or dissolve into thin air if she didn’t. Since when the hell did she become so strong?
Sadness felt like her face was on fire, and much to her discomfort, Joy persisted, taking advantage of the fact that Sadness couldn’t ever bring herself to say no to her, as if she would ever want to in the first place. “Tell me tell me tell me tell meeee-”
Sadness couldn't hold it in any longer. “Okayfineithinkyou’rehot canyoustopnow?!” Sadness cried, pulling away and covering her ears as Joy squealed in delight. The others audibly groaned, which fell on deaf ears as Joy danced around like she won a contest while Sadness stared at the ground wishing some external force from the outside world would interrupt them so that they could forget about this. Sadly, nothing came to rescue her.
Sighing in disappointment when she realized nothing was gonna distract her from this, Sadness glanced up awkwardly at Joy, who wore a mischievous smile on her face, with a glint of something in her eye that Sadness couldn't quite place. "I knew you couldn't resist me!" Joy exclaimed, spinning around and smirking at her, taking immense pleasure in watching the other girl squirm in discomfort.
Sadness covered her face with her hands, desperately trying to keep herself from smiling. "Joy, stop..." 
Disgust faceplammed. "Can you two go five minutes without obsessing over each other?!"
Anger peeked over at Disgust from behind his newspaper and gave her an annoyed glare. "Don’t waste your breath. They've been wrapped around each other ever since they got back from Long Term Memory. You couldn't pry them off with a crowbar." 
Joy rolled her eyes at them both and leaned down to sling her arm around Sadness, whose face was still on fire. "Oh come on guys, this is what you do when you love someone!"
Disgust made a face in, well, disgust, and flipped her hair, which smacked Fear in the face. “Well, luckily I don't love anyone.”
Anger scoffed, placing his newspaper on the table beside him and getting up from his spot on the couch. “The only thing Disgust cares about is collecting hoards of free makeup samples and jumping on the next fashion trend that’ll blow over in two weeks.”
“Well at least I don’t leave crumpled up newspapers on the floor and light Headquarters on fire like you do!” Disgust quipped. 
“Oh, you want to go, missy?!”
“Don’t even get me started-”
“GUYS, STOP!!!!” Joy yelled, putting herself in between them to avoid any more conflict, but to mostly make sure that Anger did, in fact, not light anything (or anyone, especially Fear) on fire.
“The point is, sometimes, when you love another person, you do things for each other that you don’t do with anybody else, and… sometimes, you get to do special things for them!”
Anger let out a humorless laugh while Disgust looked like she was two seconds away from launching herself out of Headquarters.  “Yeah. special things . I'm sure you do a lot of special things for her that we don’t need to know about.”
“Yeah. Count me out. Love is gross. Do whatever you want, but keep it far away from me.” Disgust said, picking up a nail filer and sitting beside Anger on the couch.
Joy waved them off dismissively and returned to holding her girlfriend close to her. “Whatever, at least I got my blueberry here so I can smother her with as much love as I want!!” Joy’s heart doubled in size when she looked down and found Sadness smiling up at her.
Before Sadness could say anything back, the five of them turned their attention back to the screen once they saw that Riley had scrolled to another video, which happened to be a video of a Family Guy meme of Carter Pewterschmidt singing while rearranging furniture. This, according to Joy, was hilarious; causing her to let out yet another roar of laughter.
Disgust threw her hands up in frustration, having had enough of this. “That's it. I can't do this anymore. Goodbye.” she growled before stomping off.
Sadness sighed, an overwhelming feeling of gratitude and adoration for the emotion wrapped up in her arms.
“This is why I love you.”

I remember when this commercial came out in the summer of 1997 I was driving an 85 Toyota Tercel, which was not all that different than this car in terms of shape and dimension. One day I was dropping off some stuff at the dump and saw a chair sitting in the furniture dropoff area. This immediately came to mind and for whatever reason I managed to maneuver the chair into the back of my car and drove home humming this song and laughing my ass off at the situation.
When I got home my mom made me spray it with carpet cleaner and leave it in the garage overnight, but it stayed in my bedroom until I moved out and I spent many an hour reading or dozing off in it. The chair has followed me around as I've moved over the years and it's nice for human and cat naps alike.

(How to Make Iced Turkish Coffee? ☕)
More iced coffee! This time, half-assed Turkish iced mocha frappe edition because I was in the mood for a little treat more along those lines. 😊
Tumblr media
That heavy pan seemed to work fine as a makeshift induction plate under the cezve, rather than dragging out an iron skillet this time.
Tumblr media
This time, I decided to try this basic method. And got some decent foam, at least. Still not quite sure how I managed to screw that part up last time.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Not the prettiest serving approach, but it was easiest to just drink the stuff out of the shaker I'd quickly mixed up some chocolate milk in. Featuring: a little spray cream on top, and one disgruntled cat squalling for dairy products in the background! 😾
Didn't end up looking like much, but very tasty. My blood sugar was starting to drop, so I couldn't resist also grabbing a bit of a snack with it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Homemade is better, with all the yummy butter instead of basically vegetable shortening in most commercial versions, but those chocolate balls are pretty damned good too.

Catnip for Pest Control
Tumblr media
Catnip Repellent
Tumblr media
This member of the mint family packs a highly repellent smell. It is best known for attracting cats, but the ingredients of nepetalactone are also known for safely repelling mice, mosquitoes, ticks, rodents, and a myriad of other insects. A study done at Iowa State University on the ingredient in catnip, nepetalactone, shows that catnip repels mosquitoes 10 times more effectively than DEET. You can yield great results in concertation for as little as 1 percent. However, its effectiveness can vary depending on the species of mosquito and other environmental factors.
Catnip for Pest Control
Catnip (Nepeta cataria) does indeed possess insect-repelling properties, particularly against certain insects like mosquitoes. The active compound responsible for this effect is nepetalactone, which is also what attracts cats to catni
Here are eight common insects that catnip can help repel, along with methods for using catnip to deter them:
1. Mosquitoes: Catnip contains nepetalactone, which mosquitoes find repulsive. To repel mosquitoes, you can crush fresh catnip leaves and rub them on exposed skin. Alternatively, you can make a catnip-infused oil or spray by steeping dried catnip in a carrier oil (like coconut or olive oil) or alcohol, then applying it to your skin. 2. Flies: Catnip can deter flies, including houseflies and stable flies. Place dried catnip leaves or sachets of dried catnip near doors, windows, or outdoor sitting areas to help keep flies away. 3. Ants: Catnip contains compounds that ants dislike. Sprinkle dried catnip around entry points where ants may be entering your home, such as windowsills or doorways. This can help discourage them from crossing into your living spaces. 4. Cockroaches: The strong scent of catnip can repel cockroaches. Create a catnip spray by boiling dried catnip in water, straining it, and then using the cooled liquid to spray areas where cockroaches are a problem, such as around baseboards or in cabinets. 5. Fleas: Catnip is also known for repelling fleas. Place dried catnip leaves in pet bedding or make a catnip sachet to deter fleas from infesting your pets’ favorite spots. 6. Moths: Catnip can help repel clothes moths and pantry moths. Place dried catnip leaves in sachets or small bags and hang them in closets or place them in pantry shelves to protect clothing and food items. 7. Ticks: While catnip may not be as effective against ticks as it is against mosquitoes, some people use catnip as part of a natural tick-repelling strategy. Crush fresh catnip leaves and rub them on clothing or skin before heading into tick-prone areas. 8. Aphids: Catnip can be beneficial in the garden to deter aphids. Plant catnip near susceptible plants or use dried catnip as a natural insect deterrent by sprinkling it around affected plants. When using catnip for insect control, keep in mind that its effectiveness may vary depending on the species of insect and environmental factors. Experiment with different methods to see what works best for your specific insect control needs. Additionally, while catnip is generally considered safe, it’s always a good idea to test a small amount on your skin first to check for any allergic reactions before widespread use. Keep in mind that while catnip may help repel insects, its effectiveness might not be as reliable or consistent as commercial insect repellents. If you’re interested in using catnip for this purpose, you might consider experimenting with different applications and concentrations to see what works best for your needs. Read the full article

Say Goodbye To Pet Stained Carpets With These Effective Cleaning Solutions
Pets bring so much joy, laughter, and love into our homes. However, along with their adorable antics comes the not-so-adorable reality of Pet Stained Carpets. From muddy paw prints to surprise accidents, dealing with pet-stained carpets can be challenging for any pet owner. But fear not! In this blog post, we'll explore effective cleaning solutions that will have you saying goodbye to those stubborn pet stains once and for all.
Understanding the different types of pet stains and their causes
Understanding the different types and causes of pet stains on carpets is crucial for effective cleaning. One common type of pet stain is urine, which can leave unsightly marks and odors if not adequately addressed. Urine stains are often caused by pets marking their territory or having accidents indoors.
Another type of pet stain is vomit, resulting from dietary issues or an upset stomach in your furry friend. Vomit stains can be particularly challenging to remove due to their acidic nature. Additionally, feces stains may occur when pets have digestive issues or bowel problems, leaving behind stubborn marks on your carpet.
Hairballs are another potential culprit for pet stains, especially common in cats. These sticky messes can be a nightmare if not tackled promptly. By understanding the various pet stains and their underlying causes, you can choose the most suitable cleaning method to eliminate them from your carpets effectively.
Common mistakes people make when cleaning pet stains
Many people make common mistakes when cleaning pet stains that can worsen the problem. One of these mistakes is not addressing the stain promptly. The longer a pet stain sits on your carpet, the harder it becomes to remove.
Another mistake is using the wrong cleaning products. Some household cleaners contain harsh chemicals that can damage carpet fibers or set the stain further into the fabric. For effective results, it's essential to use pet-specific cleaning solutions.
Many people also make the mistake of over-saturating the area with cleaner. Excess moisture can seep into the carpet padding, leading to mold and mildew growth. Blotting up excess liquid and using minimal cleaner is key.
Another error is ignoring residual odors after cleaning. Pets have a keen sense of smell and may continue soiling in areas where they detect previous accidents. Using an odor-neutralizing spray can help eliminate lingering smells effectively.
By avoiding these common mistakes and following proper cleaning techniques, you can say goodbye to stubborn pet stains on your carpets for good!
Homemade cleaning solutions for pet stains
Dealing with pet stains on carpets can be a real challenge, but fear not—homemade cleaning solutions can help you tackle the mess effectively. One popular DIY solution involves mixing white vinegar and water in equal parts to create a powerful stain remover. Spray the mixture onto the stained area, let it sit for a few minutes, and then blot with a clean cloth.
Another effective homemade remedy is baking soda. Sprinkle baking soda over the stain and spray it with a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and dish soap. Let the mixture fizz and sit for some time before gently scrubbing with a brush or cloth.
For tough odors accompanying pet stains, try using a mix of lemon juice and water to neutralize the smell naturally. Always test these solutions on a small, inconspicuous area of your carpet first to ensure they will protect it.
