I also would like to find it somewhere that’s not Amazon.

I think, as a nation, what we really need** is a full album of seasonal songs by Mariah Carey.

**plus abolishing ICE, supporting trans folks, racial equity, not using AI, and stopping the fascist takeover of the government.

Right now, Donald Trump, Kash Patel, Kristi Noem, and other officials are participating in a panel about "Antifa," threatening to "destroy the entire organization [sic] from top to bottom."

This is a good time to revisit our guide to preparing for repression:

Since these prompts never really pop up on here I wanted to share this post I made about 4 wrestlers that I think don't get nearly enough credit or attention & that I think should be booked everywhere!

Your forties are such a time of wonder and magic, including mysteries like “why does my back hurt this bad if I didn’t even wrestle this weekend?”

I made a flyer! Know anyone in CA, OR, WA, or BC who might be interested in collecting mushrooms for research purposes? #mycology #citizenscience

Please share widely! 🧪 🍄‍🟫 🌲

A PDF version can be found here: drive.proton.me/urls/W1MM4FG...

A help-wanted poster seeking volunteer mushroom collectors in California, Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia.

The poster provided some background info about the research project and study system and how folks can contribute if they are interested.

REQUEST | Calling all mycophiles, naturalists, and citizen scientists in CA, OR, WA, and BC!

Going for a hike in the woods or a walk in your neighborhood park?
• Please keep your eyes peeled for the purple mushrooms of L.a-o!
• Collect the mushrooms* if you are able to access them safely.
• If you can, please take a photo of the mushrooms and the tree(s) you find them under.
*If you find a mushroom that is clearly rotten or moldy, please don't collect it.

"I collected some purple mushrooms. What should I do now?"
1. Please keep the mushroom fresh:
• Store in paper, not plastic.
• Keep cool/ refrigerate, but do not freeze.
• Store mushrooms away from light.
2. Email me to arrange pick-up, delivery, or shipment* of your sample.
* will cover packing and shipping expenses!

"What's in it for those who contribute to this work?"
• You will receive acknowledgement in presentations and publications stemming from this research.
• You will receive copies of journal publications from this research (data available upon request).
• You are invited to attend presentations of this research and to visit the lab at Stanford University.

Page 2 of the help-wanted poster includes reference photos of the study organism and a map of where this species has been observed. All images and the map are sourced from iNaturalist.

Looking for resources to help protect communities from ice. Here’s what I know of so far.

ICEBlock is one I use and seems to still work but it’s been removed from the App Store.

Iceout.org is one I recently found but I can’t comment on how effective it is since I’ve never used it locally.
