Say what you like about Boris but he’s a smart, funny & charming guy, and his relentlessly positive message is a blessed relief after all the doom-and-gloom Remoaning. If he can deliver Brexit, he’ll be a national hero. We’re all sick of this pathetic partisan farce.

broke brains keeping me from work for a while so i've been out foraging for mushrooms a lot as a constructive distraction. yesterday's harvest: From leftish: Hydnum Repandum, the pale spiny mushroom is what we call it. Next: golden glorious Cantharellus Cibarius, not many still out in the forest but if I see one in the forest and leave it there, it's gotta be a pretty miserable chanterelle. In grayish-brown: a few Craterellus Tubaeformis and in black-gray its close relative C. Cornucopioides. Particularly pleased that I've started finding some of those black beauties, sniffing out their hiding places under old gnarly oaks and other leafy trees Biggest concern right now is my freezer is literally full and I'm gonna head out picking more again today. Anyway if you're not into mushrooms feel free to skip this post it's mostly about mushrooms

Ratjaculation posted:I love a foraging post. I wish I knew more about edible mushrooms. So you can have a video of an earthstar I made at work Ah, looks like a Lycoperdon perlatum. if so, it's actually edible when young and tender, though not generally considered a top tier shroom Necrothatcher posted:I love this super chilled out yet potentially lethal hobby. It requires a small bit of research to be sure, but lots of good food shrooms like the ones in that pic don't have any real poisonous lookalikes. If you teach yourself chanterelles (Cantharellus and Craterellus species), porcini/penny buns and relatives (Boletus and Leccinium species) and a handful other random and easily identified good food shrooms (i.e Hydnum repandum, Sparassis crispa, Macrolepiota procera, Morchella Conica and a few others, you can widen your repertoire successively), and also read up a bit on the half-dozen or so lethally poisonous mushrooms, you can confidently go out to the forest and fill your larder without any real risk of bringing home a poisonous shroom. Things only get genuinely complicated when identifying Agaricus and some other more boutique shrooms If anyone's interested here's a google translate link of the best swedish shroom page, where they link poisonous lookalikes (if any) and stuff. The trivial names don't translate well or at all, but it's a good resource for planning a foraging vacation in Sweden or hereabouts e: changed that link to bing translate because google translate made links stop working. It's messed up though, it translates Champinjon (Agaricus species) into Mushroom which isn't even close to appropriate. I guess you don't have useful trivial names for all the different shrooms? Anyway the Latin names are correct e2: except when it translates Agaricus sylvicola into Agaricus wikipedia lmao Tijuana Bibliophile fucked around with this message at 11:44 on Oct 3, 2019 |

Ratjaculation posted:The folds have fallen off, so its not too clear but we had it down as a Geastrum triplex, a quick google says its edible but almost entirely unenjoyable. I'll mail you one! that's one spaced-out shroom that i wasn't even aware of. freaky stuff  but yeah don't mail me an envelope filled with spores or it'll probably lead to a country somewhere getting invaded

baka kaba posted:are you getting the mushroom game? I'd just poison the game community with my fungal pedantry or something. I dunno much about morels though, I've never found any. The closest I've got is this absolute beauty of a Gyromitra Esculenta,  which, depending on cultural factors, is either a very good food shroom or highly poisonous, or both. I think it's technically called a false morel in english maybe

OwlFancier posted:Farmers might but what makes you think local authorities are going to know that the official looking tree planting isn't supposed to be there? Someone who knows where the sewer main is won't think the trees are their job, someone who knows about trees probably won't know where the sewer main is, and the odds of either of them paying attention are slim. It's not like either group is likely to be patrolling looking for rogue arborealists. Trees are great at planting themselves. if there's no trees growing at some place there's a decent chance it's because somebody cuts them down

Brony Car posted:So somehow Boris Johnson is close to being able to get the deal passed? It sounds like the margins are going to be tight. Is there nothing in the deal to justify an MP in a “Leave” district voting against the deal? There's rather a lot in this deal that any MP could object to if they'd want to. It's pretty much just ~hard brexit~ with a transition period first and some special rules for NI, there's nothing in it that matches Labour's stated brexit priorities

namesake posted:Well that'd be the horrendous disruption period in a no deal with all kinds of emergency measures getting enforced to keep the power structure intact so yeah? The DUP should not decide who rules Britain. MPs should vote for Johnson’s deal, and those who dislike its details should save their fight for the transition. Exit now would at last draw the Brexit poison from daily politics. It would lift the threat of no deal, and hopefully open the door to a calmer negotiation of Britain’s European future. It is time, surely, to end this agony.

Vitamin P posted:The old truism that a dictator negotiates better than a democrat has 100% held true this whole episode, when Johnson did his YOLO negotiation style and suggested he legit didn't give a poo poo about having no democratic mandate he has the power gently caress you, suddenly the deal that the EU said for almost a year was inviolate and couldn't be changed did get changed. Just like the original deal was pro-EU because T-May had to answer to a democracy and the EU didn't so the EU was stronger. That's quite the take. Whose interests has the EU violated in dictatorial rampage when negotiating either of these deals?
