Phobos - those look beautiful. Can they be consumed?

PHOBoS · Posted: Wed Nov 04, 2020 8:01 am Post subject:

They can be consumed and are psycho-active though also somewhat poisenous if not prepared correctly.
some more info: https://williamrubel.com/2011/10/05/how-much-amanita-muscaria-to-eat/

fun fact: reindeer like them and their urine apparently becomes psycho-active after eating them.
There's a whole theory about santa and flying reindeer tied to these mushrooms.

Pohutukawa is a native New Zealand tree, usually pretty boring with green leaves, brown bark, the usual.

But, every December, they come out in bloom. For good reason, the Pohutukawa is also known as the New Zealand Christmas Tree, and there is even a local carol about it Smile

that's rather accurate in my case. Well, maybe I don't have that many synths.

Notice the single white whiskers above each eye.
Looks like alien antenna to me...

It's a good idea to let a cat check out your engine from time to time. My car once was performing poorly. I took it to the mechanic and the problem was that mice had nested in the air filter.

The "blend door" on my Ranger pickup has failed, not allowing me to adjust the temperature setting. Probably due to varmint intrusion LOL!
