I love the way the edges of the fungi echo the warm brown of the leaves against the cold-white of the snow! #MushroomMonday #FungiFriends #Shroomscrolling

My cup over-snoweth. #FungiFriday #FungiFriends #Shroomscrolling

Pheasant back mushroom on Saturday when the snow was falling, and on Sunday when the full foot of snow had fallen! #MushroomMonday #FungiFriends #Shroomscrolling

A whole late-fall decoration vibe… moss, fungi, slime mold! #FungiFriends #FungiFriday #Shroomscrolling (pic date 11/22)

From November 9, before the frost stole the color out of the leaves. #MushroomMonday #FungiFriends #Shroomscrolling

One thing I'd like folks to understand and for media to emphasize is that the GOP knows that Medicaid work requirements will not be an effective incentive. They are counting on that. If they actually induced employment they wouldn't "save money." They want people booted off Medicaid.

The Signal "incident" is a war crime wrapped in a repudiation of our long-term allies seasoned with a massive security breach in a pungent records-violation sauce.

Before the snow fell, I spotted some Giraffe Spots (Peniophora albobadia)! #fungifriends #shroomscrolling

Trying to be mindful of being a welcoming place (and in the meantime, dropping factual nuggets in neutral language over on EffBee).

First post - re fear and uncertainty in the wake of the federal order to "pause" all grant funding. My workplace is almost entirely federal-grant funded, so that's my paycheck. Medicaid waiver funding is an open question... the money goes to providers, not my daughter. Frozen, or no?
