Without a doubt, if countries in the Global South committed to a socialism founded on agroecological principles, they would, in turn, put their productive capacities toward meeting their own needs, rather than growing surpluses. This is to say that Americans and other importers of bananas would have to figure out a way to meet their own demand for bananas. In a socialist future, necessary labor would be organized democratically and collectively by the associated producers, and unnecessary labor will be eliminated (advertising, consulting, finance, marketing, and all the bullshit jobs people currently do). Banana production could, therefore, be taken up in the “realm of freedom,” the part of the economy that would be managed by people in their free time. This isn’t implausible. The variety of banana that most people eat in the West was cultivated in a greenhouse in England. While some of Harris’s critics suggest that this would amount to an intolerable increase in toil, it could also be fun: after all, people in the West love to garden, forage, and cook in their free time and no one suggests automating these activities. Indeed, it’s hard to understand the aversion some on the Western left have toward manual labor when lots of them pay to spend hours exerting themselves in gyms, proudly running headlong to nowhere.

Itsy-bitsy headcanon before bed:

I’ve mentioned this in (very minor) passing before but in my lil’ AoC-verse, the Yiga Clan has been surreptitiously farming mighty bananas in Faron for centuries. I just think, that they have too many stockpiled (and in the other timeline, every member who pops up to kill Link has some) for their stores to come solely from theft and happenstance gathering.* And after all, bananas don’t grow in the desert or highlands of their home…

Anyway, they “farm” in a way that makes the groves look very natural, so nobody else would tend to notice they’re not just growing wild. Just as they’ve been looking after the apple trees on Satori Mountain as stated in my linked post up there. The thing is, that means the Clan can’t defend their crop too intensely, and they always lose some of it to passers-by. In the past, there have been some incidents where Hylians have thought they were farming bananas in the general area; these were dealt with by quickly grabbing as much of the crop as possible, laying natural-seeming traps, and putting illusions on the trees to make them look blighted until the Hylians gave up again for another while and moved their operations somewhere else in Faron.

Post-Calamity, Master Kohga made it known that it’d been his people tending a large amount of banana trees all this time and that they hoped to plant more and expand their operation. Princess Zelda, as one show of gratitude for his assistance (*cough saving her father’s life cough*) and to aid in her own push to legitimize Yiga participation in commerce, worked with Kohga to draw up formal documents to the effect that yes, that land and those trees/bananas belong to the Clan. Which Kohga privately thought was annoying political theater since why wouldn’t it be theirs, why should the Yiga have to make nice to ~earn~ a right to what their hard work had created, but…still, he saw it as a step in the right direction by the Princess, surely (since it seemed she was trying hard to make nice from her end, too <3).

So where do the Yiga farm their bananas? Largely all along the stepped cliffs of Ubota Point, with a smaller reserve crop (looking even more wild and natural) on the higher areas around Bronas Forest and Kamah Plateau.** Post-Calamity, the Clan has been able to start building an open and permanent base of operations on the Point, as they’ll begin to sell and ship some of their crops to places besides their home in Karusa Valley (Urbosa and the Gerudo are among their first big customers, hehe). The Yiga’s once-small Faron Team has been bulked up considerably now that they don’t have to hide. Things are just getting underway with this, but it feels like a good start to their business relationship with Hyrule. Yay! :D

Okay goodnight everybody! <3 <3

*There’s turn-in quests in AoC where the Clan wants to buy up every mighty banana in Hyrule. This is to sustain them while they understandably are shorter-handed and all-hands-on-deck with the Calamity (thanks Astor) and haven’t been as able to tend their crops, which they haven’t been up front with Hyrule about anyway ofc.

**As I’ve also said before, I headcanon that locations on the BotW/TotK map are bigger in “real life” for lack of a better descriptor. So Faron in general is big enough for the Clan and Hylians to be farming bananas and other things too. But incidentally, Ubota Point’s environs are the area in BotW where you can find the most mighty bananas, just growing everywhere! …and personally I’ve also been attacked by a bunch (ha! I have made a banana pun!) of Yiga in Faron both before and even more after that timeline’s Kohga fell in a hole, so….

The Forbidden Banana Farm: A Surreal Dream

⚠️Warning: This text is long

This morning, I had a strange dream: I was walking towards a banana farm where one-meter-long bananas weighing ten kilograms were being grown and were ready for harvest. Out of sheer curiosity, I touched one of them and tried to pick it when suddenly several officers arrived, arrested me, and told me that this was a forbidden place and I shouldn't be there. They took me to their leader, a young, handsome but insane man. He grabbed my head firmly and brought it close to the rotating blades used to chop the bananas, angrily asking how I dared to touch his bananas. I started begging and apologizing, asking him to spare my life. He told me that I shouldn't have seen this place and that I would have to serve him for the rest of my life.They took me to a relatively large place with metal walls where many people like me were held, and then they closed the thick metal door behind me. We were forced to pick and carry the large, heavy bananas. Some of the extra bananas were brought to our prison, but we were not allowed to touch them. I thought to myself that I had endured so much trouble and suffering because of these bananas, so I wanted to taste them. I peeled one of them, took a piece, and tasted it. It was salty and bitter, not tasty at all. At that moment, a black woman told me that I had no right to eat them and asked if I wanted her to report me to the boss. I gave her a piece of the banana to eat, and she decided not to report me. I shared pieces of the banana with all the prisoners when suddenly the metal door opened, and a guard saw us. The guard was a muscular black man. I approached him to offer him some banana, but he gestured for me to go back to my place. However, I had gone too far and ended up outside the prison, and the metal door closed behind me. At that moment, the boss arrived, and I quickly hid the piece of banana in my clothes. The boss angrily asked me what I was doing outside the prison. I told him that the prisoners and I were curious about the taste of the giant bananas and that I wanted to ask for his permission to taste them. He angrily asked how I dared to ask such a question and if I had eaten any of the bananas and was trying to hide it from him. He said that they were very valuable and not just bananas; they extracted a special psychoactive substance from them and sold it to wealthy and powerful Chinese individuals.At that moment, he contacted some spies inside the prison, who had disguised themselves as prisoners, through a digital screen outside the prison door and asked them if anyone had eaten the bananas. I remember there were three of them, and one of them was named Miracle. The boss said that Miracle was his most honest ally. While he was questioning them, I was extremely stressed and started praying in my mind to be saved. Two of the spies said that no one had eaten the bananas, and Miracle, who was a furry orange creature, said that he didn't know anything about it. The boss believed them, and everything went well, and we were saved. At that moment, I woke up and was very happy that it was all just a dream. My dream was so realistic that I had believed it was true. 🍌👹

Winter 2024 Monster Rancher & Misc. Merch Pre-orders!!

I'm doing this batch a little differently from usual! Normally I just order a batch and sell it once it's in stock, but this time around I'm trying to earn enough to either go visit or financially assist my parents in Texas! My dad can no longer work because of his battle with cancer, and my mom retired from her teaching career last year, so they have no income right now to speak of and they're struggling. At the very least I can get them some grocery/gas/medicine money to cover them for a month, especially while my dad is currently in the hospital.

I was a high schooler on a field trip visiting a farm. It was a “banana chicken” farm. The farmer was really proud of his banana chicken trees. They were small palm trees on which chickens grew. The farmer proceeded to pick some of the chickens, peel their skin off like you peel bananas and give them to my classmates to eat.

I wanna pet the milk hybrids(if they're okay with that).

Eggnog pats your head back and from then on that's your new greeting.

Cotton Candy gives you a big hug as thanks, though you might be covered in some face paint and kisses afterwards

Screamsicle pulls out a pair of devil horns from their trunk so they can mimicking stroking your horns like they like their to be.

Ginger and Strawberry either kneel or pick you up. Rootbeer just straight up puts you on their shoulder.

Spice looks about five seconds away from falling asleep. So does Banana, but she's (pretending to be) grumpy about. Mint enjoys a good pat down when blazed and uses you as a body pillow while you do it.

Oat doesn't have horns, but enjoys a good pat. Cherry doesn't like to take her helmet off because she's shy about her broken horn/how small they are, but will do it for you. Vanilla kisses your cheeks. Milk Tea is the one that does that patting. You can pat Chocolate - but only when he's exhausted from a long day
