#millet for scale

[probablyasocialecologist]

Zuni farmers in the southwestern United States made it through long stretches of extremely low rainfall between A.D. 1200 and 1400 by embracing small-scale, decentralized irrigation systems. Farmers in Ghana coped with severe droughts from 1450 to 1650 by planting indigenous African grains, like drought-tolerant pearl millet. Ancient practices like these are gaining new interest today. As countries face unprecedented heat waves, storms and melting glaciers, some farmers and international development organizations are reaching deep into the agricultural archives to revive these ancient solutions. Drought-stricken farmers in Spain have reclaimed medieval Moorish irrigation technology. International companies hungry for carbon offsets have paid big money for biochar made using pre-Columbian Amazonian production techniques. Texas ranchers have turned to ancient cover cropping methods to buffer against unpredictable weather patterns. But grasping for ancient technologies and techniques without paying attention to historical context misses one of the most important lessons ancient farmers can reveal: Agricultural sustainability is as much about power and sovereignty as it is about soil, water and crops.

George W. Maher, architect - part 1

Hutchinson Street District, Chicago

Unless otherwise noted, photographs are by Roger Jones

George Maher in the 1890s (Kenilworth Historical Society)

George Washington Maher (December 25, 1864 – September 12, 1926) was an architect who worked in the United States mainly during the first quarter of the 20th century. Maher was noted for his designs in the Prairie Style, and in his time was often more well-known than his contemporary Frank Lloyd Wright.

Maher was part of a new movement in architecture that sought to establish a distinctive American style. East Coast architect Henry H. Richardson had garnered attention by designing monolithic stone buildings. In Chicago, a new architectural style was emerging. Variously labeled as “The New School of the Midwest,” “Rationalism” or “Chicago Style,” it is today known as the Prairie School.Many young architects had begun their careers together and were inspired by Richardson and Sullivan. Maher, George Elmslie and Frank Lloyd Wright had worked together in the office of architect Joseph Lyman Silsbee, whose influence can also be seen in their work. Evanston Roundtable

Maher is well-represented in Chicago, notably in the Hutchinson Street District, and found early success in Oak Park, as well as in Kenilworth, where he lived.

This post focuses on five houses he designed on Hutchinson Street, and includes links to interior photos and historic images.

Exterior views

This house was designed by George W. Maher in 1902, and sits on 6 city lots of private landscaping, designed by landscape architect Jens Jensen. The home's interior features details crafted by designer Louis Millet, who also designed the stained glass Tiffany dome in the Chicago Cultural Center. The home is located in the former Scales parcel (see Scales house below).

Willliam H. Lake House, 832 W. Hutchinson St., 1904

Front view

Above: images from the Inland Architect and News Record, Vol. XLVI No. 3, Oct. 1905

W.H. Lake was a grain broker and senior partner in the firm of W.H. Lake   & Company which was located in the Board of Trade Building. Lake, following the lead of his neighbor, John Scales, chose to commission George Maher as architect for his home, which was constructed in 1904. In the Lake House, Maher developed his final version of the Farson House (1897) type. In this type of design Maher made his most significant contribution to the indigenous American architecture he worked so hard to develop. Unity is achieved by formal arrangement of elements within the design. The basic form of this house type is a massive rec- tangle with horizontal elements dominating the composition and drawing it together.

Seymour House, 817 W. Hutchinson St., 1913

The house at 817 Hutchinson was designed by George W. Maher and constructed in 1913 for Claude Seymour. Drawings of the front facade were published in the Chicago Architectural Club Catalog for 1913. Seymour was a vice-president of Otto Young and Company, an upholstery business. Like many of his neighbors, Young was active in the Chicago Automobile Club and a member of many other fashionable clubs.

In his design for the Seymour House, Maher borrowed heavily from English country houses by C.F.A. Voysey and the firm of Parker and Unwin. The two-story house is basically H-shaped, though a one-story porch (not an addition) does break the symmetry of the facade. The many windows and their arrangement here are typical of Parker & Unwin's designs, but the geometric pattern in the leaded glass is distinctly the work of Maher.

This design and its variations are used consistently in all decorative elements to lend a measure of continuity; Maher called it his motif-rhythm theory.

John C. Scales House, 840 West Hutchinson Street, 1894

John C. Scales came to Chicago with his parents in 1845 when he was just 4 years old, and his father set up a commission business in town, where John eventually became a partner. Scales, the son, invested his money in real estate and purchased a section of the Buena Park subdivision on the city's then remote north side. Chicago designslinger

The Queen Anne style and busy roofline contrast strongly with Maher's later designs along Hutchinson St. The rough-cut stone along with half-timber design is almost playful.

Archival photo of the Scales House

Brackebush House, 839 W. Hutchinson St., c. 1909-10

Maher designed this home in 1909 for Mrs. Grace Brackebush.

Despite the rather awkward handling of certain elements in the design of the house at 839 Hutchinson Street certain experts feel that the design is the work of George W. Maher. The design probably dates from the period between 1905 and 1910, when Maher was beginning to work with a new type of design, one that was inspired by English architects such as C.F.A. Voysey and the Viennese architect Joseph M. Olbrich. - Hutchinson Street District, City of Chicago Landmark Designation Report

Worldbuilding cuisines

Wet temperate climates:

Cfa and Cwa: Anything goes for these types of cuisines. Note, that many spices to come from this climate zone, such as ginger. These parts of the world can also be transitional climates from more tropical ones, further increasing the number of available spices. And anything goes: mild and fermented, plant-based and spicy, meaty stews with greens. Really, anything goes, just note that in the summer, meat would rot rather quickly, and thus, they might prefer to eat smaller animals. This is the perfect climate zone for rice, so as long as there are enough flat land, rice would be the most basic food, sometimes replaced by buckwheat, tubers or millet were the soil is too rocky. Different varieties would have different amounts of harvests per year, and thus, it would feed a lot of people. Rice might also be quite a popular option. Proximity to the sea might encourage fishing, or gathering kelp or sometimes even water-life domestication. It would also encourage a certain degree of trade, further increasign available foods.

Cfb: Temperate, rainy, very rainy. The semi-long winters and the insiduous cold would encourage the consumption of meat and other animal proteine, especially if it's fatty. It doesn't mean it'll be readily available, but it would make it much more desirable. When meat is not available, nuts would fill that role. The crops that grow best in these climates are barley, rye and oats, which prior to industrial agriculture, would be the main food of the working class. When these are unavailable, tubers such as potato, sweet potato and so on. Proximity to the sea might encourage to add fish and kelp consumption. Slow-cooking and baking might also be more prevalent as a mode of preperation. If after all, one must burn some fuel to heat oneself, might as well use that fuel for cooking. As long as this cuisine has a steady source of fat and starch, one is good to go.

Cfc: Temperate, but colder. Grains would probably be limited to barley and oats, and even then, only in small quantities. Some tubers, such as potatoes, can be grown in such a climate. Preserved meat would probably play and important part in the diet, when plant life isn't as abundont. Given such climates are coastal, it'll probably be fish and sea-life of some kind. Berries and rowan would be a main source of sugar and vitamins. These regions of the world would also be quite good trading spots, and also make trading more obligate, so more non-indiginous foods would be present. If forests are intact, mushrooms stews and conifer-based drinks would be quite prevalent. Seaweed, kelp and lichen would be consummed. Foods would often times be fermented as the main method of preservation. A mostly carniverous diet, both out of lack of available large scale plant food, and because of the cold. Usually fatty and salty.

[swagging-back-to]

realized when i was doing a scaled 'floorplan' for the 40 gallon mouse tank that i MOST CERTAINLY do not have enough clutter for that tank and it will be very bare bones.

luckily i found a place that has pretty cheap mouse and rodent toys/hides so i got like 10 different things for them there---almost all of it being hay-made (bc i put in a little triangle hay tunnel in with them and they destroyed it literally overnight. was so disappointed bc i wanted it for a semi-permanent structure. soooo to make sure they don't destroy the next one i got a bunch of hay stuff they CAN chew.)

got two little hay wreaths, two hay tunnels, a large 8in hay hut, a small 5in hay hut, another 8 in hay TIPEE. two 6in cholla logs, and THREE hanging hay wigwams (they were actually sold as outdoor bird houses in a three pack compared to the *one* sold for mice which was the same price--major deal.)

oh and then another wooden bridge, 2 little metal skewers to hang produce on, two more triangle tunnels as well as a smaller little hay ball they can crawl in, a hanging apple wood toy, a 5in terracotta honeypot jar (sold for aquariums), a 9in multichamber hide, and 2 seagrass chew balls (bc the main colony cannot get enough of that shit)

and then locally i got another terracotta pot (regular one) bc i saw on Pinterest a woman put te pot upside down and stuffed amaranth and millet sprays in the drainage hole. i thought that was a cute way to add clutter and also they could use the space underneath as a small burrow. and then a glass jar for sushi and mochi.

i pulled a hammock, l shaped platform (i don't think ima be using this one tbh), a little plant pot, a willow ball, and three little houses i pulled from storage and am planning to use, too.

all in all these girls are SPOILED and they're gonna be in for the time of their lives in a week.

[noitar-arat]

⭐⭐⭐ real talk i have been dying to chat with you about ur writing but i've been so "AHHH" about it

AAAAH myself to you too😭

Director’s Cut

Hmm I definitely have a lot to say about some of my fics, but for today I’ll talk about “Matter of Honor” because that was my first vaynemille fic and apparently the one most peeps know me for (to the point I saw one peep brought it up in official server and my soul proceeded to leave my body pls why must you mention it in official)

A-hem

Back when I first played g22-g23, being a fresh returnee to mabi, I never got a chance to grieve over Talvish because the moment Vayne appeared oh boy the effect he had on me…the design(I’m weak towards edgy looking bastards), how the dialogue constantly states he stares at your milletian…THE TOUCHING OF FACE AND HIS STUPID SMILE….a-hem. The point is I was falling HARD and what better way besides making fanart to express how much I adored this bastard.

Write fanfic! Smut fanfic! Though the actual smut is like waaaay at the end and is like three paragraphs top at best!!But! That was my goal, to portray the slow burn desire that transpires between Vayne and the millet. In this case my millet but not millet Elise!

(The face of a fool with horrible taste in men)

I’m sure I already talked plenty about Ellie before so I’ll keep this part brief, but one of her most defining traits is that she can be quite the pushover and is always the one to suggest giving people a chance (even if said people might not deserve it. Something she needs to learn coughs).

Vayne, as much as her passive ass does irritate him, he does use it to his advantage as he sees fit. Like arriving at her doorstep, drenched in dirt and blood knowing full well her kind nature won’t reject him.

Any sane person would have prolly chased Vayne out of their farm with a shotgun (atleast that’s what I would do if I saw a freaky guy clad in demonic armor standing on my porch) but alas my poor fool of course lets him in. Once that door closes, here is where their dance begins as Elise immediately becomes overwhelmed by the scent of blood and the implications of said blood (did I mention she has a murder fetish, people always freak out about this over her cannibalism for some reason shrugs).

I realize now we never learn what his exact duties are as a member of the BMO at the time I wrote this, but I always figured Vayne had to at least have taken part in hunting down potential victims for the cult or spies trying to infiltrate the order. I don’t believe now with everything we know that he does mindless killing BUT…he is(was) the Destroyer, was responsible for the biggest war that transpired in erinn(not to mention setting lose the dragon in Tara castle).

But going back to the start of the dance, Elise is busy having an internal battle with herself for desiring Vayne SPECIFICALLY when he has freshly killed someone as she already struggles enough as it is it’s desiring her enemy in general. I could go into a tangent about this, but basically Elise has always had a morbid fascination with violence, not on a massive scale but more personal 1 versus 1 kind of situation. Is part of the reasons she first became drawn towards Vayne, sensing immense power from him, later for him to confirm to her he is a hardened warrior just piqued her interest more. And her interest becomes piqued once more.

We enter now the next scene where the dance prepares to escalate, inside the washroom where everything transpires. I had a lot of brainstorming concerning where they were gonna do the do, originally it was going to be a bathtub since that is usually the norm in medieval times and the positioning required would be easier with their height difference.

But I thought about it more, I truly wanted a claustrophobic setting with Elise trapped and personal space non existent between them to make it more intense. So after a lot of thinking it over(and doodling it) I went with the small shower stall route. And I know a shower stall may seem modern, but like, this game is still a fantasy world with a lot of inventions that would have never existed in medieval Ireland. So I took liberties and figured Elise would have eventually discovered how to set up a magic plumbing system. The fountains in Tara and Belfast imply a plumbing system does exist already, at least in the cities.

Here we enter the first escalation as Vayne is being his charming self and offering some major insight on how he got his very tiny injury. And because he is a perfectly normal gentleman he uses it as opportunity for roleplay and he just so happens to have the best rp partner for it.

Look at her, getting into character so quickly, a dream rp partner /s

Sadly the roleplaying doesn’t end well, as Ellie tries one last futile attempt to kick him out (I’ve been writing post g25 Ellie a lot and I realize she would have set him on fire at this point otl). It doesn’t work obviously, this is a smut fic and I must build it up and the pretense of trying to get rid of him, which SHE can..if she truly wanted, is just part of it as we get balls deep into it.

Hehe get it, balls, cuz he took off his pants-shot-

This part was my favorite to write the inner conflict Ellie is having here as she has to battle between keeping her pride and not allow herself to be pushed around anymore or embrace her craving for intimacy. The rest of the fic deals with it as these idiots are just challenging each other to see who is the most horniest (both, both of them are just different ways to portray it). Either way I just realized both situations could have been wins, she gets dick regardless at the end.

Anywho, that’s it for my commentary, and rereading the fic again there’s so much I need to rewrite sobs

Exploring the Largest Millet Exporters: Leading Suppliers in the Millets Market

Millets have gained immense popularity in recent years due to their rich nutritional profile and sustainability. As the global demand for this ancient grain rises, many countries have become significant players in the millet trade. This blog explores the biggest millet exporters, the factors driving demand, and where you can find reliable millets suppliers.

Understanding Millets and Their Growing Demand

Millets are a group of small-seeded grains that are resilient, drought-tolerant, and packed with nutrients. Varieties like sorghum, pearl millet, and finger millet are not only staples in many developing countries but are also gaining traction in health-conscious markets across Europe and North America. As more people seek plant-based and gluten-free options, millets are now becoming a staple in global diets, boosting the trade of this versatile grain.

Top Millet-Producing Countries

India stands out as the largest producer of millets, contributing significantly to the global supply. In addition to India, countries like Nigeria, China, and Niger are also important producers. These nations cultivate millets on a large scale, catering to both domestic and international markets. While production is concentrated in these regions, the global millet trade is rapidly expanding due to growing demand from developed nations.

Biggest Millet Exporters: Who Are the Leading Players?

India is by far one of the biggest millet exporters, dominating the international market due to its high production capacity and diverse millet varieties. Indian millets suppliers are well-positioned to meet the rising global demand. Other countries contributing significantly to millet exports include Ukraine, the United States, and certain African nations. Ukraine, in particular, has seen rapid growth in its millet exports, while the U.S. focuses on niche organic and specialty millet varieties.

Companies like Eurosun Global are examples of exporters that have successfully positioned themselves as reliable suppliers in this growing market. Such companies leverage their expertise and partnerships to cater to global markets looking for high-quality, certified millet products.

Global Millets Trade and Export Trends

The global trade in millets is experiencing a steady rise, with increasing demand from countries like the U.S., Germany, Japan, and the UK. Europe is witnessing growing interest in millets due to its benefits as a gluten-free grain, while the U.S. is seeing rising demand for millets in health-conscious and organic food markets.

Export trends indicate that the demand for organic and non-GMO millet varieties is increasing. As health awareness continues to spread, millet exports from top-producing countries are expected to grow steadily over the next decade.

Challenges and Opportunities in the Millet Export Market

Despite the rising demand, the millet export market faces challenges like fluctuating prices, quality control, and trade barriers. Exporters must meet the strict quality and certification standards imposed by importing nations, particularly in Europe and North America. However, there is a significant opportunity for millets suppliers who can deliver high-quality, sustainably grown products.

Conclusion: The Future of Millet Exports

The future of the millet export market looks bright as demand continues to rise. Countries like India and Ukraine, along with key millets suppliers, are expected to play a pivotal role in fulfilling the growing global appetite for this ancient grain. As consumers prioritize sustainability and health, the market for millets will only continue to expand, offering tremendous potential for exporters.

In conclusion, whether you’re looking to import millets or explore opportunities as an exporter, understanding the dynamics of the global millet market is crucial. With countries like India and Ukraine leading the way, the future of millet exports looks promising.

Better harvest in rice, wheat, millets to fuel record output 2024/09/26 New Delhi, Sept. 25 -- India is set to achieve a record foodgrain production of 332.29 million tonnes (mt) in the 2023-24 July-to-June agricultural year, according to final estimates released by the agriculture ministry on Wednesday. This represents an increase of 2.61 mt from the previous year's total of 329.68 mt. The growth has been attributed to favourable production in key categories such as rice, wheat and millets. While foodgrain production as a whole scaled new highs, pulses and coarse cereals faced challenges in the 2023-24 season. Total pulse production was estimated at 24.25 mt, with tur (pigeon pea) at 3.42mt and gram at 11.04 mt. The low production of pulses is expected to lead to an increase in imports, as the average annual consumption of pulses in the country is estimated at 27 mt. Mint reported on 4 September that despite record sowing of pulses during the kharif season, India's goal of becoming self-reliant in pulses by 2027 seems to be slipping out of reach, as production has continued to decline from 27.3 mt in FY22 to 26 mt in FY23. The Indian agricultural year, or crop year, straddles two main seasons-kharif (sown during monsoon, harvested in autumn) and rabi (sown in winter, harvested in spring). Bad weather-specifically drought-like conditions in Maharashtra and prolonged dry spells in Rajasthan in August-affected the output of pulses, coarse cereals, soybean and cotton, especially during the rabi season. Rice production in 2023-24 set a record at 137.83 mt, an increase of 2.07 mt (or 1.52%) from 135.76 mt in the previous year. Wheat production also reached a new high at 113.29 mt-2.74 mt higher (or 2.48%) than the 110.55mt produced in 2022-23, the data showed. A good harvest of rice and wheat is crucial for maintaining food security for the country's population of over 1.4 billion. The production of millets has gained attention in recent years due to its resilience to climatic challenges and its nutritional value. For the 2023-24 season, millet production is estimated at 17.57 mt, slightly up from the previous year's 17.32 mt, the data showed. In 2023-24, oilseed production also grew significantly, with total output estimated at 39.67 mt. Rapeseed and mustard reached a record production of 13.26 mt. Oilseed crops soybean and groundnut were estimated at 13.06 mt and 10.18mt respectively. Sugarcane, a critical cash crop for millions of farmers across the country, was estimated at 453.16 mt. While sugarcane production has remained relatively stable, the crop's water-intensive nature has led to increased scrutiny and calls for more sustainable agricultural practices, especially in water-scarce regions. Cotton, another key component of India's agricultural economy, was estimated at 32.52 million bales (weighing 170 kg each), while jute and mesta production is pegged at 9.69 million bales (weighing 180 kg each). Both cotton and jute are essential to India's textile industry, providing raw materials for domestic manufacturing as well as exports. Similarly, total production of nutri/coarse cereals was estimated at 56.94 mt, with maize accounting for 37.67 mt. Coarse cereals, which include crops like sorghum, pearl millet and finger millet, are important for food security in arid and semi-arid regions, but their production was hampered by the drought-like conditions in some states.

food crops basics: cereals

cereals : cereals are the seeds of grasses (Poaceae). There are many many cereals of note: wheat, rice, and maize(corn) spring to mind ... chances are, you are a member of one (or more) cultures that have an ancient, deep relationship with one or more of those three cereals. There are also others like barley, millet, sorghum, and oats that are mega important in their own right, but those three are standouts for sure. There are also many plants which are farmed and used in a way similar to cereals, such as quinoa, but these are not grasses and so are "pseudo"cereals (just a different kind of plant than true cereals).

Generally, cereals are farmed for their grains which are smallish, hard, dry fruits, which are easy to store compared to other starchy plants like plantain, especially before refrigeration. Kept out the way of mice and wet, they'd last ... probably why humans liked hanging out with semiferal cats, which eventually became the domestic cats we have to this day.

Cereals are some of the crops we farm the most of, and also some of the crops we have been farming for as long as farming has been a thing that we do. Our relationship with cereals is truly ancient and is sometimes pointed to as a point in which hierarchical, ownership-based systems began(1) ... not 100% on that one tbh. Why not? Well it makes sense that farming cereals would require a different social organization than hunter-gathering, because of the work needed to cultivate, harvest, and process cereals, and also that the benefits of long-term storage can become an issue if you are having to carry that grain around with you as opposed to keeping it in a granary/silo building. However, these things do not require hierarchy, ownership, so on. Processing grains can be hard work, but made easy or even enjoyable as a community activity, sitting around with your friends and family grinding grain and gossiping, something people do with all sorts of activities including milling grain. We also see examples of cultures that cultivated cereals as staples that have other systems, such as domestic & kin-based systems where extended families work community to cultivate cereals(2). Look to maize in the Americas for many examples.

Maize itself is worth bringing up because there is, so much, here.

Maize is a domesticated descendant of wild teosinte, and really interesting stuff is done to unpick the patterns of maize domestication taking place 5000 to 9000 years ago. This includes looking at lakebeds to see pollen and phytolith presence (both vary by shape, and phytoliths are microscopic structures that persist after a plant decays), fossil records, and checking pottery and human remains for maize components(3). Regardless of how these understandings shift and change, the fact remains that these people over centuries cultivated teosinte into maize, carefully selecting the best cereals to propagate ...

look at this. This is a profound link to many folks' ancestors, and a way of extending hope forward, selective breeding for crops that are better and forming culture around this practice.

& much like the very people who formed this relationship with maize, the plant itself bears the wounds of colonization. It lays bare how much of a lie the "benefits" of Western civilization are ... none of this makes life better for humanity, it exists to make a select few people at the top of the pile very, very wealthy & powerful. & there is no limit to their greed. maize has become a menace in the hands of industrial agriculture and capitalist firms.

You may have seen the news about corn sweat, aka transpiration, where plants (like humans) excrete water which evaporates & carries heat away from the body. in sufficiently "sweaty" circumstances, it boosts humidity, in turn making sweat a less effective cooling strategy. The sheer scale of industrial corn agriculture, grown in monocultures without shade of trees, results in massive corn-sweating increasing the humidity and making it harder to cool down. & other than that. Generally, when monetary value is the metric through which things are measured & prioritized, things that sell well get prioritized over things that are good. Crops that look nice & taste sweet & are addictive & can be used for animal feed, biofuel, and ultraprocessed food become the crops to grow, pushing out others. Things like "having essential nutrients" fall by the wayside, leading to circumstances where people have sufficient caloric intake but insufficient nutrition(4). Maize is no exception here. In many cases, its cultivation is for use as corn syrup to cut costs in the production of sweet things (cheaper than sugar), or corn to bulk out flour, or corn to feed animals in CAFOs rather than allowing animals to graze naturally on plant matter we can't digest. An amazing plant with an ancient history beaten down into the fuel for a whole lot of problems and very few people getting very rich. We see the same with other cereals for certain, but maize is certainly a notable case.

not all more-recent cereal farming is fucked up & evil, though. Many many people continue traditional practices, and many experiment with mixing a range of knowledge to try and cultivate these important plants in a more sustainable way. For example, Alternate Wet and Dry Irrigation (AWDI) for rice farming is an iteration of rice-paddy farming where the paddies are allowed to intermittently dry out rather than be continuously flooded, reducing water demands and risk of contamination from polluted water(5). The staple status of these plants means that successful breeding for better nutrition can have a big impact, kind of like how contemporary furikake made a huge difference by adding nutritional bonuses to otherwise just plain rice. and while it makes "conventional" harvesting machinery less useable, cereals can of course be farmed in polycultures with other plants.

rice itself is similarly ancient and entangled in human history, with wild rice species and evidence of rice domestication spanning multiple continents. Wild rice is harvested by indigenous folks while domesticated rice is raised by many indigenous groups as well. The wild-domestic rice boundary is fuzzy, with wild rice being cultivated (it's "wild" rice in that it hasn't been through the incredibly long process of domestication), with wild rice being crossbred with domestic rice, with ancestral early-domestication rice being carried down multiple parallel domestication processes in different places, by different people(6). Rice has been used to make so, so much, and is the basis for an immense diversity of cultures.

fascinating stuff with a lot of history and a lot of hope.

So mentioned before that the dry nature of the grain made it viable for storage w/o technologies/processing moreso than other starches. but there are potentially other reasons that grains became So Important, since these plants can take a lot of effort to turn into food (ever seen how many steps it takes to turn wheat into bread?) after all.

here is a brief aside to the "drunken monkey" hypothesis of human evolution. Human evolution is of course a very. Hmm. subject at times. For example the similar-sounding "stoned ape" hypothesis which notes the overlap between ancestral human lineages and psilocybin mushrooms, and says that perhaps the reason we have such weird brains is we took a lot of shrooms and those brain-changes gave rise to Human Intellect (literally going "what drugs were you on when you came up with this lol" to the Entire Human Species). Despite name similarities, drunken monkey is different.

so you know how sometimes animals will eat fruit that's a bit rotten and they get drunk? Fruit-eating animals are somewhat known for this.

so humans are apes and we are thought to have descended from an arboreal ape living in the forests of Africa. many of our close sibling-species still live there, still living in the trees (chimps and bonobos). They are omnivores and frugivores, and humans are also omnivores with a lot of frugivore-vibes (teeth setup, loving sweets, being able to get scurvy with insufficient fruit+vegetable intake). being a frugivore makes sense when you live in the trees in a habitat that's close to the equator, where there isn't a wintertime with cold weather & short daylight hours that restrict plant growth and damage large, soft fruits. Sometimes, there isn't enough fruit, and so other foods are eaten instead (leaves, bugs, meat, so on).

of course, this fruit-based diet is a bit more troublesome moving away from the equator and living on the ground. The drunken monkey hypothesis points to our love of alcohol and our relatively-high ability to digest it as a suggestion that maybe, we could live on the ground in areas with poorer fruit conditions by eating fallen fruit on the ground, rotting, becoming alcoholic(7). Alcohol is a poison, but we can take a pretty big amount of it. It has a pungent smell as well and a lot of people find that smell nice. for a frugivore ape living on the ground, it would be really beneficial if we could eat rotten fruit off the ground, and also beneficial if we were attracted to the smell of rotting fruit and therefore able to find it more easily.

why am I talking about alcohol here? gestures vaguely at beer, sake, chicha morada, other grain alcohols ...

we've been brewing alcohol from grains for a really long time, with some thinking we figured out how to make beer before bread. Before we knew how to treat water, weak beer was a safer option than water, which I wouldn't be surprised affected us much like starting to cook meat -- wasting less energy on being sick and full of parasites, we have more energy for reproduction, invention, thinking (& brain size), art, music, so on ... as disastrous as alcohol can be, it's another ancient human Thing We Do and another way our lives & the lives of cereals are woven together.

humans & cereal grasses, the grains of Poaceae, we go way back and have shaped one another. These are ancient species-transcendent interrelationships fostered over centuries and centuries. these relationships and rituals are subjugated, much like so many humans, under an exploitative hierarchy meant to distill the variety of life and experience into a single unit measure, Monetary Value. Take a moment to say thanks to cereals, have some bread, flatbread, pasta, tortilla, rice, rice noodle, oats ... we are old friends and have been since before , gestures vaguely again, all of this bullshit.

… and I only talked about three cereals here. This only absolutely scrapes the surface of those three cereals as well. Again this is food crops basics and there is so much more, I absolutely encourage looking around and seeing what you can find yourself!
