As a reminder, now that I'm about to queue almost a year's worth of backlog, @verdantviridity and @viridverdure are still me, it's just a backup account with the same setup I have here between @humunanunga and @irreyre.

If it's set up right, reposts shouldn't be showing up in tags but they'll all be tagged as #rerun. I didn't know this account would be restored after that one termination scare, so since then, I've been meaning to repost anything I might want to keep in case it ever happens again and I have to move for good to another blog.

It probably would've been easier just to reblog, but something about that bothered me more than reposting at the time, so now I'm committed to the consistency.

But anyway, I'm also verdantviridity on Bluesky and Pillowfort.

I haven't seen any mention of this yet, but if you count the windows, there's 51. There's not a FUN event attached to that, afaik... but:

  • if we assume there's one missing, 52 is the number of playing cards in a standard deck– jokers notwithstanding.
  • ...but...
  • if you recall there being a track in Chapter 2 called Digital Roots, a digital root is when you add up the digits until you get a single-digit number: 66 = 6+6 = 12, 1+2 = 3. It's sometimes used for puzzles, like in 9 Doors 9 People 9 Hours, but it's also prominent in numerology– numerical divination.
  • 51's digital root is 6, which could make it a candidate for signifying correspondences between Gaster and Spamton.
  • 51 = 17×3. Gaster is associated with Entry no.17 and I noticed 3 as a recurring multiple or digit. Dog with maracas only occurred for me behind windows 3 or 30-something, unless I miscounted.
  • so you know how Gaster's number is strings of six and Chara's is strings of nine.
  • ROOTS is through window 36, which equals 6×6, is divisible by 3, 6 and 9, and has a digital root of 9.
  • Therapy is through window 18, which equals 3×6, is also divisible by 3, 6 and 9, and also has a digital root of 9.
  • 3, 6, and 9.
  • 9 being 3² and 36 being 6².

Given this uptick in religious themes, I wouldn't be surprised if we'll be referencing more numerology to solve these mysteries...

So I was gonna look up more numbers with a digital root of 9, and it turns out that digital roots have a practical application in math.

Numbers with a digital root of 9 are also divisible by 9, and even numbers with a digital root of 9 are divisible by both 9 and 6.

Twice could be coincidence, but if this is intentional, my prediction is that later puzzles like this will set the key as the 54th, 72nd, 90th or 108th.

My first post on TVB ...🧍

Hi there, I'm verdantViridity. You might know me as utmvarchive. I just wanted to say real quick that the inbox should currently be open to anons, but! ☝️ I can also take dms at my personal account @humunanunga; and if you join the server, I can represent anyone on Discord who wishes to remain anonymous to the other mods.

Just thought I'd mention that while I was thinking about it. I've done it before when someone was worried about getting caught up in discourse for sending in the wrong feedback, or asking a question the wrong way.

I'm also one of the elders in the team. The server is sfw to keep it open to ages 13-and-up, so content guidelines will favor accommodating younger members' boundaries. If you need clarification or notice anything inappropriate in chat, I'm one of the mods you can talk to.

That should be everything for now. I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I'm very happy with the work we've been doing to make this server better, and I'm very thankful to be in this mod team.

Thanks again for having me. 💚

👉👈 ...so I'm a mod for TVB... that's where I've been...

there was a lot to help out with these past few weeks between management and reorganization, but that's not the only reason archival's pause was extended. I'd accidentally set myself up in such a way that I need to queue the next three AUs up to posts dated April 2016 and I've made it up to early March so far.

now that TVB's server is a lot more caught up, though, I should have more time to get back to archiving, as long as I don't keep wearing myself out gardening. wish me luck 🫡

#i was recently promoted to a higher mod position so i'd gotten more involved in sorting out what still needed doing & who's doing it#worth it tho. i really like this mod team. they're so fam.#if i think for too long about it i'll get emotional... 🥺💚#utmv#utmvarchive#the violet banquet#etc

hmu if you join the server! we've been putting a lot of work into the improvements made since the event's practice run– I like to call it Banquet Zero– and I'm really happy with how it's been coming along.

anon asks are open on Tumblr, but if you have any questions or feedback, I can also represent anyone who wishes to remain anonymous on Discord.

I make a lot of enemies treating astrology like this.

Idk maybe there's a reason I don't trust that their are intrinsic and unalterable elements of my personality tied to the nature of my birth. I wonder why a trans person would not gel with that. It's a mystery.

Unsurprisingly like half the crunchy moms I knew as a kid are now weird terfs who had to be dragged kicking and screaming into getting vaccinated.

Dang, its almost as if you need a solid foundation and ability to descern false information with which to create a nuanced understanding of the world around you or something!

It's like the system you use to accept or reject information has direct consequences in the form of your ability to tell truth from falsehood!

It is reminiscent of the possibility that false information can cause problems!

I think people should read Leon Festinger's "A Theory of Cognitive Dissonance" it's a really good book please read it right now I promise it's worth it if you don't have the energy to read it then send me a dm and I'll get in a discord call with you and infodump about it it's part of my special interest

I'm going to quote myself from a comment I left on youtube:

My mother didn't get it when I tried in front of a family counselor to compare holism to christianity, but the moralization of purity is the same. Instead of chastity, the virtues you're praised for are things like the cleanliness and sourcing of your consumption. Instead of things like deception, the sins you're condemned for are things like fact-checking and depending on modern medicine.

That's what holism has in common with christianity, but American christianity also has a high conservative demographic, and what holism has in common with conservatism is the belief that progress leads to degeneracy and regression leads to the natural order. They may disagree on whether that natural order is a rigid hierarchy which must be rigidly obeyed, but both their interpretations romanticize pseudoscience and traditionalism.

I still think essential oils smell better. I still prefer a lot of crunchy brands. I still support farmer's markets and shopping local. I still believe in fair trade and habitat/wildlife conservation. And I'm still of the impression CBD has a lot of potential in medical research.

But, being raised holistic on one side is also why I was raised to believe in hyperdiffusion and vaccines causing autism, and I'm very lucky I didn't follow that trail all the way to the lebkuchenhaus.

Alternative medicine is faith-healing; and if the placebo doesn't work, the scammer gaslights you into thinking it's your own fault for being so full of sin– I mean toxins– and that deeply damages your critical thinking skills.

#hey mom if you're still stalking my tumblr after i blocked you this is why you're a hypocrite for saying i'm the one drinking the koolaid.#you raised me on the koolaid just as much as christian upbringers did. and then i sobered up.#also it was really funny in a sad ironic way that you told me to be more like nausicaa on jan 6th.#nausicaä? advocate of wearing masks so you don't inhale a serious biohazard? ...yeah sure okay don't mind if i do ¯\_(ツ)_/¯#holistic#pseudoscience#conservative#discrimination#serious#from#quasi-normalcy#supersexyactioncomics#theo-the-cat-guy#photochoco

chat has learned about my shed shower toilet

Avatar

I'm always torn between calling it a shed and a garage. it's originally a detached garage, and still looks like one from the outside. but before I moved in, the previous owners converted it into another living space that I'm currently using to store furniture for my friend until they move and I can give the inside another overdue deep-clean.

and there were some... creative decisions made to fit hygiene accomodations into such a small space.

as in, they installed a shower. and they installed a toilet in the shower.
