I am sick (which may be Covid) so I’ll decide to stroke my ego to cope (and I can always blame the fever for my bad choices)

“Since I became aware of the concept of death,I live in fear of everything”

“I am not good relaxing at will, trying to relax actually stresses me because i fail at relaxing”

Avocado orchards had carpeted the gently undulating hills around the sacred lake of Pátzcuaro with stodgy green bushes. Here, before the cataclysmic arrival of the first envoys dispatched by Hernando Cortes from the Aztec capital over the mountains to the East, [...] the Purépecha had sown maize, amaranth, zucchini, cacao, cotton, tomato, beans, a dozen types of chili, and much more.

Now the monotonous “green gold” of the avocado boom had colonized the entire Mexican state of Michoacán. [...] [I]t was shocking to think that the cause of the disaster was America’s great patriotic party: the National Football League’s Super Bowl. A flurry of advertising creativity on behalf of the Mexican avocado was unleashed every year during the multi-million-dollar sports broadcast. [...] “Is your life just terrible?” asks the comic actor Chris Elliott, star of Scary Movie 2 and Scary Movie 4, in the 2019 spot. “You deserve more! Spread an avocado on top of everything!” [...] A few days before the Super Bowl, the domestic diva Martha Stewart [...] had released on social networks her latest recipe for guacamole [...]. Guacamole was now an obligatory snack for the 100 million or so Americans who watched the Super Bowl. In February of 2017, 278 million avocados -- most of them from Michoacán -- had been sold during the days before the game in [the US] [...].

---

The avocado had become the star product of Mexican food production in the age of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) [...] since NAFTA was signed in 1994 [...]. [Mexican] farmers produced 16 times more than the formerly dominant Californian growers. [...] Moreover, the avocado was now classified as a “superfood” [...].

It had not always been like this. In the 1950s, the avocado was known unsentimentally as the crocodile pear [...]. Imports from Mexico were banned until 1997 [...] . When complete liberalization was announced in 2007, Michoacán had become an unbeatable competitor for the Californian avocado growers. The Mexican producers specialized, like their Californian rivals, in the Hass variety of avocado, more meaty than those that the Purépecha had [...] consumed over the millennia, and with a tough skin that protected the pears during long hauls in chilled container trucks to El Paso or Tijuana and then beyond to the big US consumer markets. [...] [T]he Hass avocado was perfectly suited to the global market [...]. Michoacán, whose crystalline lakes had earned it the name of the “land of fish” in the indigenous language of Tarasco, would never be the same.

By 2020, 80 percent of the avocados consumed in the United States came from Michoacán [...].

---

Now in the 21st century, on the outskirts of Uruapan, the frenetic capital del aguacate, the new economy of agribusiness took shape [...]. Further west on the shores of Lake Pátzcuaro, the monoculture had not yet colonized the entire landscape, but the advance of the avocado seemed unstoppable. [...] “Practically everybody here wants an avocado orchard [...],” explained [FFB], a resident of the Purépecha indigenous community of Jarácuaro on the shores of the lake. [...] [H]e was horrified by the extent of environmental destruction. “They pump water from the lake to water the avocado orchards [...]. It’s pillage. [...]”

The falling water level, together with the introduction of the rapacious predator tilapia, had wiped out almost all the [...] [native] fish species. Of the cornucopia of marine life that had fed the Purépecha cities, only the diminutive silvery charal remained. The same occurred at other great freshwater deposits in Michoaczán. [...] The Purépecha communities on the shores of the lake, a landscape of stunning beauty where dense pine and ilex oak forests met white nymphaea lilies floating on turquoise water, were girding themselves for the arrival of the aguacateros, avocado producers [...].

---

“They put a gun to your head and tell you to sign the deed before the notary. That’s how the transfer of land is agreed upon,” explained [GV], a sociologist at the University of San Nicolas de Hidalgo in Morelia [...].

Meanwhile, large exporters and avocado brokers -- some of them international brands like Del Monte -- were profiting by purchasing from producers at dirt-cheap prices and reselling to the US supermarket chains at very attractive ones. “They pay a dollar per kilo of avocado here and sell it for eight at a Minnesota W*lmart,” said [GV].

In order not to squander such a reliable source of profits, “transnational corporations, just like the Canadian mining companies in Zacatecas, pay the extortion money [...],” he continued.

My Friends as Marauders Era Characters

So I have a bunch of friends who I think can be a lot like some Marauders Era characters and I therefore am going to share them (and something about them too) with you. 

Evie - Lily Evans

Evie is incredibly intelligent, my best friend, and kinda short-tempered too. She’s the sweetest human ever but also has an ongoing feud with our English teacher (sorry Mr Shaw, but we are planning to give you a heart attack soon sooooo).

Ellie - Marlene McKinnon

Ellie is very opinionated, is low-key scared of everyone while everyone is low-key scared of her, and she’s loud, proud, and unapologetic. 

Ioan - Remus Lupin

Ioan is *the* most Remus Lupin human I’ve ever encountered, I swear. He’s in mostly top sets (everything but Cymraeg), he’s chaotic yet so smart, and he’s an absolute dumbass who puts up with everyone else’s dumbassery too. Love him.

Malachy - Sirius Black

THIS BITCH. 

Maiwenn - Pandora Sailstreame

Mai is so funny and so cool, but she knows it damn well, too. She knows she’s a glorious human and we all love her for it. (also, she has a really cute dog called Mostyn but that’s beside the point)

Millie P (i know 3 millies, okay?) - Mary MacDonald

Millie is opinionated, lovely, socially aware, and headstrong. She also knows exactly what she’s worth while being able to criticise her surroundings/herself and earlier she was talking about our RE class and how when we have it tomorrow, Johnny’s gonna eat EVERY SINGLE CHOCOLATE FINGER IN THERE. and she’s not even wrong. 

Hannah - Amelia Bones

Hannah is super sweet, nice, and always misses class for extra-curricular stuff. She’s in choir, ‘llefaru’, and she worked on the summer fair too. She does everything, is the kindest human, and she has a close-knit group of friends she’d do anything for. 

Levi - Barty Crouch jr

EMOOOOOOO

Asher - James Potter

As soon as Ash read the GV for me, I knew it would go well. and it did. Ash is so happy to completely nerd out with me for Gods know what, sit with me in comfortable silence while we’re doing our own things (paralel play), and we know we can go to each other for anything. (they also have set-aside pancakes every morning in school cause their mum is one of the lunch ladies)

So that’s my probable incomplete list of my friends as Marauders Era characters!

[awritersnightmare]

[Image Description: A digital drawing of Lily from Graystripe’s Vow. She is a white cat with light orange tabby patches on her face and a light orange tabby back and tail, a red nose, and orange eyes. She is sitting with her back to the viewer but her head turned to face them. Above her back “Lily” is written in orange. End Description.]

“We all know you're sad, Petunia. But like Monkeystar said, we need to you. I need you. We've both got to leave this place behind now. WarriorClan can be our home. All the time.”

Lily is a bright orange tabby she-cat with amber eyes and white chest, muzzle, underbelly, and paws.

notes:

- I would die for her 

- back is similar to Billystorm, but doubled stripes.

            Lilith is outside the school, looking up at the windows and blowing the smoke from her cigarette upward.  Shoulders roll as she tries to decide what to do next. Schoolwork? No. Find out who her roommates are? That just seems sad for all parties involved. She could find a hunt. 

             Yeah- that’s what she could do. Find something to kill. If she can’t make friends here she might as well make a reputation not to be fucked with. And she turns, smashes the cig between booted foot and gravel, then runs directly into someone.

“Your heartbeat’s really loud.” (tigerthief)

｡･ﾟﾟ･ 𝐒𝐎𝐅𝐓 𝐒𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒 ♡

Harry had always figured that if he should ever find himself entrapped in a closet with Tiger that it would be a consequence of a stupid game they were all playing. 

( Yeah, they were in a gang – somehow that didn’t seem to matter when the idea of alcohol and either spin the bottle or truth or dare came up. ) 

When he had imagined such a scenario – and he had, as sad as that sounded – he had envisioned himself playing it far cooler than sweaty palms and a look of anxious terror on his face. 

That being said, in none of the potential play throughs his imagination conjured up, the cause of their proximity hadn’t been his fuck up on a job. The place was supposed to be empty, he had read so on the calendar that clung to the fridge via magnet. Big red line from Monday through to Friday. 

‘VACATION.’

Clearly, that had gotten cut short which left the pair of them staring at one another wide-eyed while they ransacked the top floor and had to think fast on how to conceal themselves. 

“Think it’s the shock still,” He whispers, though he knows that’s only a minimal contributing factor to the fast race of it. 

( She’s always the cause. )

“They weren’t due back for another day. We need to figure a way out of here before they start looking around.” 

[yovrstruely]

Like for a starter from Lily, if you are apart of this group verse.

Why is it that 90% of plants are toxic to cats 😭😭 I just want plants but they all kill cats

GV here.

Honestly, there are plenty of plants that are non-toxic to cats. They might cause some mild vomiting/diarrhea, but are not typically rapidly fatal like lilies. For example I have peperomia, kalanchoe, aloe, african violets, lucky bamboo, mother-of-thousands, pancake plant, oxalis, Christmas cactus, and orchids without any issues around my cats. Even some species of lily are safe-ish around cats, for example peace lilies just cause oral irritation and drooling but shouldn't cause organ damage. The ASPCA has a list of plants and whether or not they are highly toxic to animals.
