It’s not showing up on my instance but I took a look on mander.xyz and unfortunately that pic doesn’t show the ring or stem base which is what you really want to see for Amanita identification (their gills all look pretty similar).
I’m pretty sure it’s A. Aprica from just the first photo though due to the lack of striations and the flat vellar material attached to the cap margin.
Looks fake to me, the way the caps and stems are aligned doesn’t make sense with how mushrooms grow and there’s no way they could have an inrolled cap that flat without gills/pores running down the stem. There’s no space for the cap to have unrolled into that shape.
That’s super cool, I want to try morels but I haven’t managed to find any.
Hypomyces are look more like molds growing on mushrooms than mushrooms growing on mushrooms. There are mushrooms that grow on other mushrooms like Squamantina or Claudopus parasiticus but they’re all pretty specialized to only grow on certain genera of mushrooms and I’m not aware of any that parasitic mushrooms that can grow on parasitic genera. I’m just a hobbyist though and I’ve only really studied mushrooms that grow in the Pacific Northwest so perhaps it exists somewhere.
The only potential double-parasitism I can think of is that peppery boletes (Chalciporus piperatus), which are hypothesized to be parasitic on Amanita Muscaria’s mycelium because of how frequently they’re found together, could be infected with Bolete mold (Hypomyces chysospermus/microspermus).
And let those filthy aspergillus or god-forbid hypomyces have a say in how we run things? I think not, long-live King Muscaria of Amanitaceae!
I would say probably T. Versicolor based on that, it’s also generally more common in the PNW than T. Ochracea.
Wow, it looks halfway between a morel and a stinkhorn. I wonder what species.
I actually would lean towards A. Aprica based on the stature and that the warts look pretty flat but it’s hard to really tell without seeing the underside and volva.
Edit: I just noticed the margin of the cap isn’t striate (for those following along, there are no ridges at the edge of the cap where the gills are) so it’s almost certainly Amanita Aprica.
If it is a Muscarioid, then A. Chrysoblema is probably correct because genetic testing has shown that all native PNW muscarioids are color forms of the same species/variety so we don’t need to worry about picking a variety from the color. A. Chrysoblema is one candidate for the correct name but it could also end up being that they’re all A. Muscaria Var. Flavivolvata (they all have off-white yellowish warts).
For now I usually just call them all “Amanita Muscaria” and leave it at that.
What’s wrong with just using Aurora instead?
Or slime molds which are, in fact, an ameoba.
Most molds are about as closely related to mushrooms as flatworms are to humans
They also depict a mushroom that only grows in Japan growing in China but the show is pretty anachronistic overall.
I doubt it will be temporary, all news is going to be increasingly political for the foreseeable future.
I knew the admins were eventually planning on doing this but I didn’t realize it had already started and that it affected apps. Unfortunately it’s fundamentally at odds with the way I want to use Lemmy.
I should move instances, I use All to read news, my subscribed feed is all more positive stuff so I don’t doomscroll.
This is somewhat mycophobic, you could do the same bit with rowanberries and baneberries or lobsters and scorpions. Oleander branches are the perfect shape for roasting sticks but they can kill you if you eat food off of them or burn them in a campfire.
Nature is always dangerous if you don’t know what you’re doing.
Leucocorpinus Birnbaumii, also called “the flowerpot mushroom” because it shows up in flowerpots so often.
The “unraveled” one likely didn’t have enough light and grew into a long string trying to find the sun. This is similar to the principal used when cultivating Enoki mushrooms to make them grow into thin white pins instead of the way Flammulina Velutipes typically looks in the wild.
While the US doesn’t have a parliamentary system, it’s functionally impossible to win the presidency without a nation-wide party with a presence in multiple states backing you. This is because the president is elected by the states so you need the infrastructure capable of winning a plurality of voters in multiple states which you can test by your party’s ability to win senate seats or governorships. Additionally, you would need support of enough members of Congress to actually implement any policy while during your term.
Most third-party presidential candidates in the US are grifters or fools as evidenced by the fact that they’ll run for president every year without even attempting to build out party infrastructure, push for alternative voting via citizen ballot initiatives, or win lower positions necessary to actually be successful.
Making third parties viable in the US is possible, but it will take a lot of work. It’s far easier to hijack one of the existing parties the way the Tea Party and later, Trump did.
It’s even faster to put it in ice water and the worst that can happen if you forget about it is your drink gets warm again.
I’ve talked to a few translators who work on official subs and my understanding is that for simulcast subs like One Piece, they end up having to ship subpar translations with no editing because the deadlines are so ridiculous. So if they mishear a word or make a typo, they usually don’t have time to fix it.
