"The soul becomes dyed with the colour of its thoughts"
And here's a patch of deathcaps (Amanita phalloides) showing three stages of growth...

This is the false deathcap (Amanita citrina)... here the volva is much less distinct but you can still see it if you know what to look for.
November 28, 2025 at 7:23 AM
But anyway... here's a tawny grisette (Amanita fulva) showing the volva at the base of the stem. It's like a little egg or sack and the mushroom seems to 'hatch' from it. This feature is common to all Amanitas (although not always this well defined).

The red and white one is fly agaric (Amanita muscaria). The deathcap (Amanita phalloides) is yellowy green.

Khelif was raised as a girl, that much may be true. 5ARD often comes to light at puberty.

He had two tests run by two accredited labs, both returned male results. His coach admitted it. Now Khelif refuses to take another test.

Here's the result of one of the original tests...

Why does his sex test say male? Why does he refuse to take another test?
November 14, 2025 at 7:22 AM
Astonishing that people will still defend Khelif when his sex tests results are in the public domain...

Saw them a few weeks ago. Bez is still going strong...

Anyone else reminded of a popular movie trope?

Okay, found a pic in my photo library that shows those features. Hopefully helpful to you! I keep wanting to get a good macro lens for this kind of thing, but phone did the job here - pale cap edging and white webbing ('reticulation' is the fancy term) on a penny bun.

A friend in one of my group chats is desperate for a Predator to join series two... although possibly not ultimately on the side of good.

A parasol mushroom, Macrolepiota procera. Have found a few this last week, but hopefully we'll have a big flush soon...

Sure.

They may actually have you covered...

They just want to pee though

And your figures are wrong anyway... of 245 trans inmates as of December 2024, 151 were sex offenders.
September 8, 2025 at 7:34 AM
UK Home Office figures show that nearly two thirds of trans prisoners are sex offenders.
