my economics professor mentioned that my state's old growth logging ban was lifted (in a positive tone) and i already didn't like her but i almost went apeshit istg. @headspace-hotel's posts actually changed my brain chemistry. i rambled to a few classmates about them afterwards and went into a research spiral for half the afternoon too. i'm so angry that i'll never see them. i'll never be able to walk on six inches of topsoil. i'll be lucky to walk on one. economics are a joke i want my goddamn earth back

Kingdom Pathologia, part 1: Fungal Plague
Also known as "Traveler's Cushion" or Glutton's Wart", it shows a distinctive fungal growth in the affected's body.
Most common in merchants and wanderers that frequent the route through Fungal Wastes; most times caused by frequent inhaling of the region's fumes and spores, but eating undercooked wild mushrooms will also cause this ailment.
Besides the shrumal growth, other symptoms include:
- Nausea
- Headache
- Mild lethargy
- Dissociation
- Hallucinations
- Mild fever
- A strong drive to dive into bodies of water or acid, or to reach the highest point in sight
(At some point they also claim to hear voices)
..................................................................................
Treatment
The usual treatment is cautious removal of the growths; this is a delicate, painful procedure as one must be certain to remove all the roots as well.
However, if it has reached the head, often coming out of the eyes, it is considered a lost cause.
In most cases, faint traces of the roots end up remaining, causing the illness to resurge or for different diseases to appear.
It is not unusual to see overgrown bodies on the edges of the route.
It is said the Mantis Tribe has ointments and beverages effective in fighting off this plague, but getting your hold on such trades is difficult. And costly.
Only the nobles could afford such thing.
