You and me pretending to be individuals
The universe
In the way humanity can study the structure of the brain despite being inside one, consciousness is just the means by which the Universe discovers itself. Or something, I don’t know, I’m high.

I believe this is a depiction of Digglet, not Ditto.
I think this is Diglett’s older sibling, Digcinqo.
And they are holding hands with tree roots
Can different species of mushroom be fruits of the same mycelium?
Speciation of fungi in the first place makes a mockery of our futile, hubristic attempts at taxonomy. Fungus spits on the petty distinctions made by man.
Mmh. Mushrooms don’t really show their fingers. You know, the things you see and eat, that’s their private parts.
I wouldn’t call those parts private if they’re just flaunting them all over the place for the world to see. They’re clearly very public parts.
Had a dumb coworker trying to tell me that cheese with a little mold on top was dangerous. She didn’t know the word “mycelium”, but that’s the explanation she was going for. Fair enough, I guess? Anyway, I’m carving the mold off and eating that cheese.
She was right?
The mold is on the inside of the cheese, the visible stuff on the surface is just the fruiting body used to spread spores.
Yep, how far the mold penetrates depends on the hardness of the cheese. Block of cheddar hard enough to play headbrick? Generally fine to just cut off a the outer layer. Anything soft, a good pizza mozzarella maybe? Garbage the whole block
Mold isn’t poisonous. Just eat it, I never had health complications after eating moldy cheese.
You just watched a Youtube Video and now you think you are allowed to post a meme?
Yes that’s how this all works
Clearly they didn’t watch the video, smh…

if you ask me, mushrooms are a bullshit double standard. THEY get to show their genitals to passing hikers in the state park, but when I do it, suddenly everyone gets real prudish? What’s THAT about?

I don’t want my genitals cut off and eaten, don’t know about you

If you don’t want people to eat your genitals, have you considered filling them with deadly alkaloids and neurotoxins? Alternatively, just make your genitals look deeply diseased and likely to kill anyone who breathes near them? These methods seem to work pretty well for most mushrooms.
If you’re absolutely determined to make sure that no one eats your genitals, and you don’t want to learn from the mushrooms, I would recommend registering as a Republican.
