Oooo, she's got a bong now!

I both need this and hate this

I am a baby cultivator so please take what I say with a grain of salt, I still have much to learn myself and welcome any mycological gurus to pop in with their 2 cents c:

I personally love rye, practically everything I have tried on rye has responded well. That said, I also put my A. subru lc to rye about a week ago and still haven't seen anything pop up. I have read that this species shouldn't be refrigerated for long term stoage, but I didn't give that tidbit much credit as I have heard the same about Pink Oyster and had zero issues bringing Pink out of cold storage. Thought this would be similar, but I might be wrong! I am going to keep the bag I inoculated and watch it to see if maybe it's just slow to break out of dormancy. I also kept a grown out agar plate of this in my room-temp workspace on the off chance something like this happened, so gonna do some transfers, try to get another bangin plate, and make a fresh batch of lc out of that in case the cold storage did fuck up this batch of A. subru. Live and learn!

For your situation, it's hard to say if it's a bunk syringe or if it's that A. subru truly can't tolerate being fridged and you got a syringe that had been fridged (I am hoping that the latter isn't the case, hoping I see some activity in my bag sometime soon!!). Fwiw, the culture from my post is from a syringe I got from The Mycelium Emporium, and it RIPPED out of the syringe, so I can highly recommend their product!

Was reading through this thread and wanted to say idk wtf these other people are flipping out about. I have owned cats for 15 years and not once have I ever bothered to trim nails on any cat I have had in my care. It's a pain in the ass for me and for them, and I have never in all those years had any health issues arise from not trimming. The other people are right that trimming is different than declawing. Declawing is indeed very uncool, but trimming is not harmful as long as you don't trim into the quick of the nail. However, maintaining that it's an absolute necessity is simply wrong. At best, it's nice for us humans because they are less likely to scratch you on accident (or on purpose if your cat is an asshole) or less able to fuck up your furniture. And while I haven't ever had a cat who needed trimming for health reasons, I can acknowledge it's not an impossibility so maybe there are specific scenarios where trimming is required.

Also, I kinda thought all cat owners knew this but per the meltdowns of some other people responding to you, apparently not; cats naturally shed their nails. There are layers to each nail, and when the outermost sheath is loose enough, scratching on something pulls it away. It's not bloody or painful, it's totally natural. If you give cats plenty of scratching post toys around the house, the act of scratching on those posts will help them to maintain their own nail health without the stress of me having to restrain them for clipping. Sure my cats have sharp claws, but tbh they know how to control their claws and I almost never get scratches from them. I'd say the only times I get scratched is if one of them is on my lap and something surprises them, like the doorbell ringing or the dogs suddenly barking, causing the cat to launch off my lap, lol.

Jfc that thumbnail of Huffman's face triggered me. How did he manage to make his face look MORE punchable??

It's the face when you know what kind of opportunity you have, come up with the absolute best use for that opportunity, and execute that plan to perfection. Bravo, Kendrick 👏

Holy shit I need this in sticker form so I can slap it on every vehicle with a MAGA sticker in my town.
