Summoners Return

“You’re dying. You know that, right?”

“I do.”

“He used you. But you know that already, too. Don’t you?”

“I do.”

“I can help you, if you’d like.”

“And what do you want in return?”

You can’t see her face, but somehow you know she’s smiling.

“That depends… How much are you willing to give?”

He tried to sacrifice you. You were supposed to die there, feeling the blood slip through your fingers, mind getting hazier, body feeling colder. Nothing more than a bloody offering made in desperation. But things didn’t go according to plan.

The World, It’s Magic, and You

The Empire of Ludia has stood since the dawn of humankind. Built by the hands of both humans and elves, Ludia has become a unique blend of two cultures. Their most prominent achievement, The Institute of Magic, has served to teach both mages and Gifted to control their powers. However, not everyone sees the Institute as the beacon of hope they portray it as.

While some humans and all elves can use magic, Gifted are more powerful than standard mages. They are born with the ability to draw in Essence from around them, so they never need to replenish their Essence like normal mages who have only their internal reserve to draw from, limiting them on the strength and duration of the spells they can cast. This makes Gifted dangerous, as there’s no limit to their powers and they never tire from a lack of Essence.

You live in the Institute as one of several Gifted. You and your friend Callum are the only two Gifted that have yet to discover what kind of magic you specialize in. This means that the two of you are stuck in the Institute, while the others move on and leave you two behind.

Griffin said "the world we got born into was screwed up so bad by previous generations that we had to take drastic measures to escape and we can't be consumed by anger at that because we still have to survive and live but also hold on to at least a little bit of that anger so we can be better than them" and he's so right

July 30 2020 - Activists against evictions in New Orleans blocked off both entrances to first city court, which handles evictions for rents less than $3000, blocking many landlords during the day who were trying to get into court to get their tenants evicted. Housing is a human right! [video]

Today I learned that Van Halen have that rider in their contract about “a bowl of M&Ms with all the brown ones removed” in order to know at a glance if the promoter read the entire contract.  And the reason they do THAT is because they once had a stage collapse because a promoter hadn’t read the proper way to set up all the specific technical stuff.

So if the band goes in the dressing room or catering and sees brown M&Ms, they know they have to double-check the stage setup for safety.

Botanical Sexism Cultivates Home-Grown Allergies 

Arborists often claim that all-male plants are “litter-free” because they shed no messy seeds, fruits or pods. In the 1949 USDA Yearbook of Agriculture, which focused on trees and forests, this advice was given to readers: “When used for street plantings, only male trees should be selected, to avoid the nuisance from the seed.”  In the years following, the USDA produced and released into the market almost 100 new red maple and hybrid-maple-named clones (cultivars), and every single one of them was male.

It took a number of years for these new trees to mature enough to start to bloom, but eventually they did and with them came more city pollen and the “epidemic of allergy and asthma.” Many of these same trees are still alive and well and getting even larger, and the bigger they get, the more pollen they shed.

Allergies are rarely triggered by small amounts of an allergen; they are initiated by an overdose. Small amounts of pollen exposure are actually good for us, but if we have highly allergenic trees or shrubs in our own yards or lining our streets, we will soon enough be over-exposed. In order to put the brakes on America’s allergy epidemic, we need to reverse the trend toward male-dominated landscapes and stop selling and planting any more of the most allergenic trees, shrubs and grasses in our cities.

and the kicker:

Female trees produce no pollen, but they trap and remove large amounts of pollen from the air, and turn it into seed. Female trees (and female shrubs also) are not just passive, but are active allergy-fighting trees. The more female plants in a landscape, the less pollen there will be in the air in the immediate vicinity. By relying less on males and paying more attention to the allergy-potential of all the plants in our urban landscape, all of us may one day breathe easier.
