fun things capitalism/eu imperialism/american imperialism have brought to romania :) aka the victims of capitalism, since were always talking only of the victims of communism:

more people are in extreme poverty today than during communism. more people who are malnutrishioned, poor, and starving. slums, many slums which are expanding especially on the outskirts of cities. poor homeless people setting up communities and cities into the sewers of bucharest to stay warm. still no hot water and heating. education system is actually worse than it was during communism, like from what i see exponentially worse, hospitals are actually worse than they were during communism - to quote a rap song, our hospitals are as dirty as some people's streets. in places like moldova, the collapse of infrastructure leading to even more of a nightmare than during soviet rule. our forests are being cut down while foreign companies dont give a fuck and the lumber mafia threathens and kills people. massive issue with sex trafficking of women and children as well as organ trafficking. massive issue with mass emigration driven by povery and hopelessness which leads to many romanians being mistreated or trafficked. the dumping of chemicals and trash from western europe onto our lands. the destruction of poor villages, communities, and slums to make space for ~modernization. a culture of individualism, selfishness, in which everyone wants to steal from you and use you. massive issue with theft and corruption. a useless corrupt government which is barely a democracy. european union money stolen in mass. self hatred and inferiroty complex in which we think were inferitor to the west which needs to civilize us, gods sake. police brutality, use of police force against civilian protests, and police and government working together to sex traffick miniors. people killing themselves because they are so hopeless and depressed. underfunded social services and a horrible beurocracy which like everything else runs of bribes. bribes and theft everywhere - but worse than the communist mandatory-gift exhange system. the destruction of traditional culture weve kept alive for thousands of years in the span of barely any decades at all. rich germand and foreign ppl moving into poor villages, tearing down old houses, etc. sex tourism. mass tourism ruining regions and turning them into messes. must i go on?

what did america and the west save us from, exactly?

Why you should avoid kava and 9 other risky dietary supplements

One-third of Americans say they believe supplements have been tested by the Food and Drug Administration for safety, according to a 2022 nationally representative survey by Consumer Reports of 3,070 adults in the United States. But the FDA doesn’t approve or test the safety or effectiveness of any supplement before it enters the U.S. market.

After consulting with a panel of doctors and researchers, Consumer Reports says you should avoid these 10 risky supplements. In general, risk increases the larger the dosage and the longer the supplement is taken. Also beware of illegal or unapproved drug ingredients, such as tianeptine, methylsynephrine and phenibut.

American Germander (Teucrium canadense)

Pleasant Valley, WI, 7-28-17

[volgdemagischewinx]

Bloom's parents being toxic and abusive and her straight up lying to them AND NONE OF THEM BEING ITALIAN is just nasty all around. And Stella's remarks "how very American of you-" UGH. Like, there could be so many more fun references to Bloom's nationality if she were Italian like in the original. Also, it just occurred to me.

Why. The fuck. Did they make her a HP nerd?! THERE'S A FANTASY SERIES SET IN VENICE THAT BLOOM WOULD MUCH BETTER LIKE!! It doesn't have fairies, but it is about a teen girl Nina who is an alchemist like her grandfather, and goes on all kinds of crazy and dangerous adventures to help save 6th moon which is a different world I think, or a planet- and it is also extremely magical, MUCH MORE THAN HARRY POTTER ACTUALLY. It's also a kids series, but Bloom IS clinging to her childhood. Vanessa was teasing her in the first episode, but given the illustrations on the book and her drawings (and the book's title) her fixation WAS a bit childish. Which is not a bad thing. She was drawn to fairies because she IS one, and she gravitated towards more juvenile media about them because that type of media didn't treat them like dead folklore. And again, Bloom was 16. That's still just a kid. Some teens cling to childhood longer, that's not a bad thing.

So bloom would 100% be into Nina the Girl of the Sixth Moon and she WOULDN'T be going on assigning Hogwards houses to people.

Sorry I got worked up but damn it I could have written Fate better. I could have! (insert the loki "I could have done it Father! For you, for all of us!" gif 😭😭. I swear to God Netflix needs to fire the Vampire Diaries guy and hire FANS. At least we seem to have read more than 2 books to reference 🙄🙄🙄

Just. Bloom as a Nina stan. My baby. I see it so clearly. God, why couldn't have netflix done it?! I don't care if not many people heard of it, Bloom is SUPPOSED to have peculiar interests! What did they gain from HP? It says nothing about her character, absolutely nothing. Everyone and their mother read/watched HP. It doesn't even tell you if someone likes fantasy, people of all preferences consumed it as a media. But Nina? Now that shows something. And if audience doesn't get it? Show the cover art, or a fanart poster Bloom could have drawn just to show the vibe.

I will never fucking forgive Netwinx for what they did to the warm, loving, and healthy adopted family from the cartoon. Also Bloom is allergic to lying, she shouldn't be able to lie to her parents even if she wanted to smh

I've bitched about Fate!Bloom being American before but it has been pointed out to me that s4 does imply Gardenia is in the U.S but like anything post-s3 I'm ignoring that. You adapt an Italian cartoon you find some way to honor its roots. At least make one of her parents Italian and let them be a multicultural family or something. Also like you said just the way they went about depicting her nationality just reeked of the "oh so special American" thing in U.S media that I hate

Also agreed Bloom should not have been a HP nerd. Bloom is supposed to be a weird girl clinging her childhood obsession with fairies. Her liking an incredibly popular book series about magic that many adults still read doesn't exactly capture that. Also it's cringy as hell. Idk the books you described but they sound fun and exactly like something she'd like! And bonus for it being set in Venice(let her be Italian damn it!)

(Not comprehensive) What to expect for riparian zones in orv confluence.

it’s the best time of year to fen hop here in Ohio but before anyone does that a pilgrimage to a less addressed habitat is necessary and fun, its check on mudflats in western Ohio time;

I just spent a few solid days botanizing some of Ohio’s most classic habitats.

Two mudflat locations: Little Miami meets ORV and Great Miami meets ORV. (though a weirder one is the ancient oxbow flats of the Great Miami. BTW ORV is Ohio River Valley.

 A group of really good friends and I got together and tried to hit the Shawnee lookout giant ragweed thickets(15 foot tall this year with native amaranth mixed in at similar height)  Each year a few people check this spot earlier and than a few later for a tricky plant not seen since 2010 called Orobanche riparia

which may or may not be state extirpated from TN WV VA and OH. these are only affiliated with confluence zones and specifically Ancient ragweed thicket communities. Normally Ragweed is 7 foot max, and dies every year, falluvium(alluvium displaced by frequent floods), buries these past frost lines and their roots are insulated. and the stems are more supported at the base.

while being a classic rare species, Japanese hops have now made it extremely problematic to spot and so it remains elusive.

while the 3 giant amaranth and 8 species of Persicaria are present with the cockerburl and ragweed along with florida and giant lettuce; It’s also notable that rough barnyard grass and two other river bank giant ragweed thicket rarities are also present. https://explorer.natureserve.org/Taxon/ELEMENT_GLOBAL.2.155128/Ripariosida_hermaphrodita  virginia riverbank mallow and ....

Nabalus crepidineus

Flood plain woods: wood nettle, greenheaded cone flower, panicled fall phlox, cup plant, Jerusalem artichoke, 2 Persicaria spp., more angry hops, 2 common Rubus spp. (black cap and Alleghany), Monarda serotina, more lettuce, both of Ohio’s jewel weed.

Silt formed Mudflats:

It’s ok though because the disturbance is still frequent in some sections and many rare sedges and rushes exist as well as mud flat species can be seen as preserved. These are very small species that thrive on silt

the map above is for a species that recently got split again after already being split from drummunds’ bull rush. Now called dwarf bull rush and went through a new genera name too. River dwarf bull rush is no longer Hemicarpha micrantha and is now Lipocarpha micrantha.

Others of notable interest in flat: Kyllinga pumila,  Paspalum fluitans,  Myosurus minimus(adventive), Cyperus acuminatus,

both toothleafs are present too. Ammania coccinea(sessile peduncle and least common) and Ammania robusta(most common) for ohio.,

another classic forbe thats pretty darn common is obi wan conobea usually with carolina geranium not far apart,

green, dentate, davids, prostrate, true spotted, and Phyllanthus caroliniensis along with multiple copper leaves are present.

(plenty of other sedges but I can’t think of all the ones Dan Boone has tried to teach me there.)

Broken bank( sand cut banks):

alleghany monkey flower, blue siphilis lobellia, indian tobacco inflated lobellia, common milkweed, 3 uncommon Rubus spp. all adventive except for one that looks like a glaberous prickily virginia creeper vine Rubus trivialis . We also see both swamp and ciliate margin loose strife, two figworts, and cockerburl again along with 4 native persicaria, 2 native day flower(Commelina spp.), 3 seedbox/ludwigs (Ludwigia spp.), waterspeedwell Veronica catenata ,

mints are well represented: 3 Stachys spp. water hoarhound, american germander, 3 potential Monarda spp. (bubblegun, basal white, and M. serotina), both ciliate and hairy wood mints.

  Classic creeping fabaceae are: Amphicarpaea bracteata and Apios americana.

Gravel point bar:

lance leaf frog fruit, smooth scouring rush, verticilate scouring rush, and rough scouring rush, smooth rush, green bull rush, the brown tall giant one, 3 sided rush, big bluestem? some how?,  button bush, both the common hibiscus, sand bar and black willows, water willow(not a willow), lizard tail(the fruitloop smelling one).

Note:

If you want someone who knows more about this habitat than anyone else, Dan Boone is probably the person to ask.

Herbs and Their Witchy Names

original graphic by: LorelainW

One of the things you might notice when working with spells is they call for some different ingredients. For example, eye of newt, wool of bat, toe of frog. To some who happen across these spells it can help lend to some of the fear surrounding witches because some of the ingredients may seem a bit bizarre. However, you will often find that seldom will those ingredients be literal. For example, if you see eye of newt in a spell, you are not going go out and get an actual eye from a newt. It actually refers to mustard seed.

The reason we have these names, stems from ancient times when it was not safe to keep spells about. So to protect the craft these names would be used instead. Some of them are just Old English, and some even date back to ancient China. A lot of times, you will find that the name is based on what the herb resembles. You will also find that many witches still use these names to this day. The more you work with magick and spell work the more familiar with these names you will become. I wanted to provide you with a basic list that you can use to work with as you are becoming familiar with working with them. As you find more you can add more to it.
