@AlexCKaufman hi! where is this map/data from?

A natural gas storage facility in Washington just went down, cutting 6 nuclear plants' worth of energy from the network that supplies electricity and heat to millions of Americans. huffpost.com/entry/pacific-… The Jackson Prairie storage site is the northwesternmost purple dot here:

it's raining and maybe that's the best time to walk around olympia washington

@geonanayi whoaaa those are cool!

@AK_BridgeLake ooh i wasn't familiar with didymium before, those are funny little things. this one might be too big: something like 4 inches with cap & stem? haha i'm obsessed with this mystery

@sethdvincent That's really interesting, Seth. To me it looks most like Didymium, a type of slime mold. Maybe that ID fits?

@geonanayi interesting, if the cap of that one got really dry and shriveled up it would look similar, though the color is kinda off?

@pieschker yeah but got nothing useful so far 🤷‍♂️

i’m like 90% sure these are turkey tail? #mushrooms #fungifriday

this tree seems to always have a couple hundred of these beauties

scouring the forest just to find a tiny mushbud #fungifriday

@philipn @cjerdonek this is looking really cool!

Friends, excited to finally (!) share what me & @cjerdonek have been quietly working on for a while now: Encycla, a better way to share knowledge on the web. Check it out!!✨ encycla.com

it was all i could think about

the caps on these look so cool. these are “cosmic queen” oyster mushrooms growing from a grow block from @CMushrooms #fungifriday

soon i will eat them

A project 🧵: Today we published a database showing how much 24,000 local police officers and state troopers in N.J. really earn. projects.nj.com/paycheck

@FungiwithBengi current favorite is definitely grifola frondosa. it feels weirdly perfect for the mushroom

What's your favourite mushroom name?

Before I left @njdotcom, I got to work on this very important dive into the diversity - or lack thereof - of New Jersey's police departments. With each record received, it was more and more clear LE agencies often don't reflect the communities they serve. nj.com/data/2021/11/n…

@FungiwithBengi 👋 i'm always searching for mushrooms in & around olympia, wa. my first mushroom twitter contribution so far: twitter.com/sethdvincent/s…

@CassidyGrom it's ... complicated. the safest answer is no. i've read about people boiling these to the point that they become food, but do it wrong (or right, depending on the goal) & they can cause nausea and/or weird adventures of the mind. inaturalist.org/taxa/48715-Ama…

@sethdvincent yo these edible?

was on my bike & swerved off the road saying “why that big burger bun right there” #mushrooms #fungi

@brentajones ooh that’s a cool one

@sethdvincent Usually mostly find the plain brown or white ones around here, but stumbled on this red one in the woods a few weeks back.
