The mushrooms we consume come from a regular store.

Many moons ago, I was part of a Bay Area archaeology excavation. I arrived early to the site one day, and a young Skull Full Of Mush was looking at a bunch of wild mushrooms. As he was about to consume one, I screamed loud enough that he did not eat it. When the professor arrived, I took him aside so as not to embarrass the idiot in front of everyone. The professor thanked me, and sent the idiot back to the lab.

ALL mushrooms are edible. It's just that some you can only eat once.

Could it be that a rare toxic mushroom – considered a delicacy in Montchavin – was to blame?

It was the salmon mousse...

Anyone who eats a mushroom should have their head examined.

Some of the victims have never eaten the mushrooms, but perhaps inhaling the spores is the culprit.

I like that song by
Wilson Pickett, “Mushroom Sally.”

I’m a mushroom forager but there’s no way I’d ever eat an iffy shroom. False morels and thimble caps are in that category and are too be avoided. There are only a dozen or so proven safe wild mushrooms in my locale. I stick with those exclusively.

I think it’s more likely to be a parasite picked up while foraging, rather than the mushrools themselves.

Here we go again:

The fungus among us.

I am curious about some medical details; I’ll have to delve into this a bit deeper.

“A lakeside village in New Hampshire recently reported cases up to 25 times higher than the US national average.”

the CDC should have done the job they were funded to do by devoting however many resources necessary to determine the cause of that cluster, instead of being focused on lying to the public about the toxic covid jab being “safe and effective” and “does not leave the site of the injection”, and then censoring all public discussion to the contrary when no one believed them ... basically, the CDC is a criminal organization that should be abolished and started over from scratch ...

NASA and many other FedOrgs who have lost the trust of the nation due to ideological politicization and/or bureaucratic ossification should undergo that exact same process: burned to the ground and a Phoenix-rise-from-the-ashes rebirth ...
