I'm just a person who does mycology for fun.

  • It's literally science

    Jump

  • It allows you to keep your arms shoulder-width apart which makes it easier to avoid hunching.

  • An illegal executive order isn't a crime, it just doesn't count.

  • If wish to learn how to forage for mushrooms, join a local mycology club and go out with them. They can identify mushrooms for you and teach you how to do so yourself. They can also recommend good local field guides, I see a few folks in this thread recommending All that the rain promises and More which is a reputable guide but it's also spectacularly out of date and only applicable to Western North America.

    It's important to know what you're doing but mushroom identification is not nearly as difficult as some of the comments here make it out to be. There are far fewer deadly mushrooms out there than most people think and it's fairly easy to familiarize yourself with all the deadly species in your area so you can avoid them.

  • Nothing wrong with picking a mushroom to ID at home or at an ID clinic run by your local mycology club. You should individually inspect each specimen as you're cleaning them anyway so you can throw out any which might be going bad, chock full of bugs, or misidentified.

    When in doubt, throw it out.

  • Baby

    Jump

  • That lady is wearing an empire waist top which flares out around the hips so it's going to be pretty hard to tell whether she has belly fat, a baby bump, or a six-pack underneath. I don't know why someone would feel confident enough to congratulate her on pregnancy when they can't even see her belly.

  • Is Windows FOSS now?

    Jump

  • It's just the code that's not under copyright, so if someone leaked it you could legally copy and distribute any parts which are AI generated but it wouldn't invalidate copyright on the official binaries.

    If all the code were AI generated (or enough of it to be able to fill in the blanks), you might be able to make a case that it's legal to build and distribute binaries, but why would you bother distributing that slop?

  • What member of a major musical group would be most helpful if you were together in a spaceship where something was going wrong?

  • One of the guys from that band Limozeen, they turned their tourbus into a space machine.

  • 🍄: significance isn't real, it's just another concept humans made up to make themselves feel bad.

  • people with ADHD self-medicate with amphetamine, overly sensitive empaths self-medicate with alcohol, what does people with OCD self-medicate with?

    Jump

  • Food gives you dopamine so just eat constantly, what could go wrong?

  • It's about DS9 nothing else

    Jump

  • Challenging politicians to a duel to the death is actually the official method of removing them under Klingon law. So clearly the lesson here is that the system works.

  • Elizabeth Warren reads heartbreaking letter from Alex Pretti's student

    Jump

  • This is pushing back against propaganda which is extremely important, she's one of the few Dems who's making an effort to do so instead of sitting back and allowing the right to control the narrative.

  • Russula with a frosted look to the cap.

    Jump

  • It's really common give up on Russula because of how impossible they are to get to species but you can learn to get them to section/group which I personally find worthwhile. It helps if you enjoy eating them like I do, I spent a lot of time figuring out how to ID Russula olympiana and the other PNW xerampelina group species because of how much I like using them to make vegetarian fish broth.

    The cap colors are often misleading as you noted but in many cases there are undertones you can learn to look for which are more consistent. For example, R. olympiana has this specific burgundy undertone mixed into whatever primary color the cap decided to be so I can usually tell before picking a Russula if it's possible for it to be R. olympiana or not. R. olympiana, R. emetica, and R. americana can all be "red" but they actually can't be the same shade of red if that makes sense.

  • Good night sweet prince

    Jump

  • And remove the seasoning?

  • Thought it was a pile of leaves until I got a closer look

    Jump

  • Armillaria sp. aka Honey mushrooms, they're very aggressive so RIP to that tree. One of the world's largest living organisms is an Armillaria that spans over 2000 acres in Oregon.

  • Caprinus comatus, I think. (Common name here: Wolhaar Inkmus)

    Jump

  • Coprinus, it means "of poop" because a lot of them grow on dung, though this one usually prefers well-fertilized soil (which may or may not have manure in it).

  • Some birds nest fungus I found.

    Jump

  • They're more like nature's Jell-O shots.
