 (DIR)  The Chronicle of Beelzebub 🌱 - First chapter
       
       It feels a little surreal to write this now that my Astrobotany 
       plant named Beelzebub is 333 days old.
       
       We're halfway there. Just look at Beelzebub now:
                                    
                    o    o          
                     \o /_o o       
                   o\| /  /__o      
                     | |o /o        
                      \/ /o         
           .  , _ . ., l/ _ ., _ .  
             ^      '        `    ' 
           
           name  : "Beelzebub"
           stage : common gelatinous indigo seed-bearing pansy
           age   : 333 days
           rate  : 666th generation (x134.0)
           score : 5649597390
           coord : 30 South, 44 East
           fence : t-+-t-+-t-+-t-+-t
           water : |██████████| 100%
           bonus : |â–žâ–žâ–žâ–žâ–žâ–žâ–žâ–žâ–žâ–ž| 100%
       
       What started as a tiny experiment, a bit of chaos, and probably 
       some questionable optimism has somehow turned into a proper 
       long-term journey. The plant has survived seasons, mood swings 
       and accidental neglect (from me).
       
       This is a thank you to everyone who helped keep Beelzebub alive 
       during these 333 days by checking on it and watering. 
       You know who you are!
       
       Without all of you, I suspect this chronicle would have been 
       considerably shorter and much more tragic. Instead, here we are: 
       still growing, still alive, and officially at the halfway point.
       
       There is something oddly comforting in watching a plant slowly 
       persist for half a year. Beelzebub remains unbothered by human 
       concerns, wars, ASCII or UNICODE dillemas and continues its leafy 
       existence with admirable consistency.

       If you don't have an Astrobotany account: you can "be me on 
       astrobotany" and water Beelzebub, shake it's leaves or apply 
       fertilizer on:

       Here's to the next 333 days. May the watering continue. When 
       Beelzebub reaches 666 days, a screenshot will be taken. 
       At that moment, Beelzebub will be forever immortalized - not just 
       as a plant, but as a record of persistence, neglect and ... care.
