Pollen - Tumblr Posts

Busy Bee 🐝

Oh my…

(0:00-0:06) All because of Chloè?

(0:23) Is it JUST me, or does she kinda sound like… Anna?

Botanical Sexism Cultivates Home-Grown Allergies 

Arborists often claim that all-male plants are “litter-free” because they shed no messy seeds, fruits or pods. In the 1949 USDA Yearbook of Agriculture, which focused on trees and forests, this advice was given to readers: “When used for street plantings, only male trees should be selected, to avoid the nuisance from the seed.”  In the years following, the USDA produced and released into the market almost 100 new red maple and hybrid-maple-named clones (cultivars), and every single one of them was male.

It took a number of years for these new trees to mature enough to start to bloom, but eventually they did and with them came more city pollen and the “epidemic of allergy and asthma.” Many of these same trees are still alive and well and getting even larger, and the bigger they get, the more pollen they shed.

Allergies are rarely triggered by small amounts of an allergen; they are initiated by an overdose. Small amounts of pollen exposure are actually good for us, but if we have highly allergenic trees or shrubs in our own yards or lining our streets, we will soon enough be over-exposed. In order to put the brakes on America’s allergy epidemic, we need to reverse the trend toward male-dominated landscapes and stop selling and planting any more of the most allergenic trees, shrubs and grasses in our cities.

and the kicker:

Female trees produce no pollen, but they trap and remove large amounts of pollen from the air, and turn it into seed. Female trees (and female shrubs also) are not just passive, but are active allergy-fighting trees. The more female plants in a landscape, the less pollen there will be in the air in the immediate vicinity. By relying less on males and paying more attention to the allergy-potential of all the plants in our urban landscape, all of us may one day breathe easier.

More on Butterfly Holder Chloe

(Temporary holder of course lol.)

I can’t stop thinking about how cool a plot thread/point this could be so here’s some more thoughts on it:

*If the Kwami swap is a two-parter then in the first part she could akumatize (But like the good version of it? Would it still be called the same thing when not corrupted?) Butler Jean in the first part and Sabrina in the second part.

*They might be the only two wiling to listen to her long enough to become heroes/champions for her during the time she wields the Butterfly Miraculous(however long the swap goes on for).

*She could appeal to them and strengthen her connections to them by truly recognizing them both as important people to her- Jean as part of her family and Sabrina as her best friend.

*By her making Sabrina a hero that helps save the day she could partly make up for causing her to become a villain/the Vanisher. This could help them on the path to becoming actual best friends instead of just fake friends/using her.

*Also just imagine how poor Nooroo would react. He finally gets a holder other than Gabriel(who is very dismissive and controlling of him) only for it to be someone else who will probably look down on him(or so he thinks/it seems).

*Though her and Pollen due seem to get along rather well. So imagine Chloe feeling terrible every time she accidentally makes Nooroo flinch from her or shrink away from her. Because Pollen’s her friend, and Nooroo is Pollen’s friend, and she doesn’t want Pollen’s friend to hate her so that Pollen doesn’t hate her.

*Speaking of Pollen she seems to hold Chloe in high regards so just imagine how wonderful it would be to have her back talk Gabriel on her behalf. Like he’s being controlling of her and she mentions that Chloe’s her true queen so that prompts him to be all “Well I’m your king now.” and she just snaps back at him with “There are only Queens in beehives, Hawkmoth. You will never be royalty to me.”

Holy fuck the peter fic is so good pls do more peter my boy needs ur amazing writing

Warning: AGE GAP. Dub Con. SEX POLLEN. Peter is 18+ in this fic so don’t @ me. Virgin ish.

They’re hours from the Compound when Peter starts to feel it.  It’s just the two of them racing hard on a lone stretch of highway with nothing but, the SUV’s headlights and great, curling masses of black trees on either side of the road.

Tony had sent him on a mission with you. Just you. He’d nearly had a fit - begged him to pick someone else but, there was no one and didn’t he need the training anyway -

“She’s one of the best on the team,” Mr. Stark had told him, clapping him on the shoulder. “She’s practically your age, too!”

Hardly. You were at least eight years older than him. Way cooler. Absolutely gorgeous and could melt people’s brains with your mind.

You were perfect. You even had a billboard in Times Square.

It’s pollen season and some people I know informed me that flowers and plants suck right now. I’m not allergic and can’t really understand how it feels to be bullied by nature in such a way. Still it inspired the making of a pollen-y fish monster... because I like sturgeons.
