Fuck this maggoty malfeasance, and also happy Halloween! ๐ I don't usually like interrupting my regularly scheduled content - consistency is key! - but figured sharing my mushroom pumpkin was about as good an excuse as any to ramble a bit as a human. First, if you haven't already, GO VOTE! ๐บ๐ธ Second, I'm continually impressed by the response to this odd internet niche I've carved out. Nearly 25,000 followers feels unfathomable still for such a goofy idea! ๐ Thank you all for your support and engagement - the myco community here on Instagram is the best! I love looking at all your photos and learning from your IDs of mushrooms I haven't seen yet. โบ๏ธ As most of you know, once you start shroomin', it's really hard to stop. I'll keep posting from my backlog through the winter, and hopefully run into some cold-hardy species too as I'm out and about, but as I look out over yesterday's melting snow (we got 2-3 inches here in Boston!), I'm a little worried about this coming winter. We're all trying to get through this especially tough year together, and more than ever, our friends, family, and neighbors might need a little extra support. The darkness of the winter months is already a drag on mental health, and this impending one's especially scary. So as we all start to sequester in our homes for the winter, don't forget that winter hiking is still a option! Bundle up, grab a thermos of hot tea, call up a couple people you love, and go for a walk in the woods together. Forests are magically quiet under a blanket of snow, and being out in nature does wonders for mental health. I'll be doing my best to get out there this winter. I think I'll need it. โ๏ธ

Fuck this lumpy log-proboscis and its warty friends, fuckin black sheep of the bolete family, amirite? Look at those wiggly gills! Unlike any bolete pore surface I've ever seen. Science was all like "your DNA says you're a bolete, so act like one" and this cheeky motherfucker was all like "naahhhh" ๐ . .

Fuckin covered in gross dead skin scraps and lawd knows what else, fuckin dirty-ass bitch needs a shower and some Amazonian white clay for a good exfoliation or something. Yknow, the good stuff, cause this shit ain't right. Or maybe just some fuckin soap. Idgaf just SCRUB YOURSELF YOU FILTHY FUCKBUCKET! Ugh! ๐๐คฎ . .

Fuck this stupid perfect fuckface, fuckin attractive piece of shit, just full of humblebrags and weird flexes like "look at how few bugs I have!" and "my margin is impressively intact" - fuckin smug asshole. . .

I don't normally wax didactic on the science stuff, but there's a caveat to this ID: L. aurantiacum is not a North American species. There is not currently a properly named species that matches this exact mushroom: L. vulpinum is almost identical (note that it has blackish scabers as shown here, rather than the reddish-brown of L. aurantiacum) but is exclusively mycorrhizal with conifers. There's a definitive lack of conifer evidence in my photos - this is clearly not a conifer-linked mushroom. Most guides use L. aurantiacum as a placeholder, despite the visual similarity to L. vulpinum, but more scientific study is definitely needed here. . . Also note the two little Monotropa uniflora antennae! #notafungus

Fuck these ugly jelly lumps, pestilent preachers proselytizing and pillaging and plundering this poor mossy village for all it's worth. Can't a moss live in peace and prosperity without fear of being harangued by a haughty group of good-for-nothin fungus who thinks THEY know what's best for the moss? Those fucks just want to spout off and get rich. No thanks, get outta here. . .

Fuck this secretly smurfy horshoecrab wannabe blue-blooded piece of rapidly-oxidizing poostain. Fuckin innocuous little white mossboner, shamed into hiding its deeply repressed but colorful personality behind a nondescript conformist faรงade. JUST BE BLUE for fuck's sake! It's better that way. None of this waiting till you're sliced open for it to come rushing to the surface. Fuck that repression, suppression, depression bullshit, come the fuck out here and blue yourself. . .

Fuck this bright-ass yellow fuckin rubber ducky colored little blight, the fuck you so cheery for? Suuure, keeping all the gross humans locked inside has been good for "the nature" but this shit sucks, you insolent imbecile. Wipe that gleeful grin off your dumbass face, willful ignorance is the worst kind of stupidity. Look around, find some news, read a fuckin book for god's sake. Educate yourself.

Fuck this hairy-ass tigers-eye lookin' doodoohead, just like, fuckin, SHINY and shit in the dirt.
