This is how TLOU starts in real life.

An otherwise healthy person can take care of a candida problem by eating a tbsp of coconut oil a day for a week, fyi. It'll cause a big die off of the infection so you'll feel like shit for a couple days while the dead yeast bits flood your waste management system though. Cut back sugar during so you're not feeding the little fuckers while trying to kill them also.

TLOU was cordyceps, the same fungus that makes zombie ants. Thankfully not the same thing.

I'm glad you don't, because you'll look it up on reputable sources at some point as a result.

Here's one in case anyone else doesn't want to take the time to do that.

C. albicans had the highest susceptibility to coconut oil (100%), with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 25% (1:4 dilution)

Unless you eat 1/4 of your body weight in coconut oil this seems to be very irrelevant to human health.

Okay - I'm not going to take this further because I know what candida people are like, but even the title of that paper means it's not relevant to a living human. Orange juice will kill cancer cells in vitro, it's meaningless to extrapolate from that. Maybe a coconut oil massage is in order next time I'm feeling a little thrushy, but that's about it.

I always thought it was a tbsp of maple syrup a day to take care of a canadian problem

[-] tuxtey@lemmy.world 16 points 7 months ago

That just turns you more Canadian

Dude just gave people ideas of how to get revenge on bad landlords, spray some spores on your last day and hope for the worse.

I thought that was the point of the image

[-] llamapocalypse@lemmy.world 17 points 7 months ago

That was definitely the joke, yeah

Everyone loves a good toilet mushroom

I've never seen the term toilet mushroom before, and here it is all over this thread

[-] Pandantic@midwest.social 9 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Isn’t it amazing how the coming together of minds from across the world can bring fresh and new vocabulary to the world?

[-] pastaPersona@lemmy.world 18 points 7 months ago

Probably a terrible idea, but would these in any way be safe to eat?

Obviously not the toilet mushrooms, but maybe the ones growing out of the chair, cracks in the floor etc would be safe to cook if washed?

[-] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 23 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

You want to eat the toilet mushroom the most, don't you?

[-] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 6 points 7 months ago

Its already got some nutella on it too

[-] Wogi@lemmy.world 19 points 7 months ago

Mushrooms grow out of rotting organic matter. Oyster mushrooms are all safe to eat so I would imagine that even the toilet shrooms are fine.

[-] SendMePhotos@lemmy.world 15 points 7 months ago

It's not an attack, but I will never understand how mushrooms can be appealing to people. I will never be able to grasp it. To me, mushrooms are grotesque and the desire I see in people to eat them is the equivalent of craving spoiled food. The flavor is not enough to counter the texture triggering my gag reflex.

Yeah, yeah. We all have different tastes and stuff. It's just a hard thing to wrap my head around.

[-] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 4 points 7 months ago

How do you feel about sauerkraut, kimchi, sour cream, cheese, yogurt, Worcestershire sauce, fish sauce, soy sauce, tofu, tempeh, beer, wine, or dry aged meats?

[-] obinice@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

Fungus in general is incredibly alien. It's not a plant, it's not an animal, it's.... something outside of our traditional understanding.

Quite reasonable to be put off them, I love eating mushrooms but they're... creepy...

[-] sternail@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I mean they are definitely inside our understandig. They‘re just not animals or plants, but fungi. With all the diversity we have on earth it probably make sense that we have organisms that aren‘t classified as neither animals or plants.

[-] candybrie@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

And it's not like we don't love other fungus. Any yeasty bread contains fungus (yeasty breads include most nonquick beads or flat breads and like cinnamon rolls or pizza crust).

You can always try the chew test.

Chew a bit and see if you die in 24 hours. If you don't, eat away!

[-] TerrificTadpole@lemmy.world 12 points 7 months ago

I feel like this system is flawed but I don't know enough about mushrooms to refute it

[-] Pandantic@midwest.social 8 points 7 months ago

The way to fix this test is to feed some to the landlord first.

Most certainly not. Fungi/plants take up and bioaccumulate compounds.

DO grow Golden Teachers. Just ask uncle Ben for help.

Oyster mushrooms are one of the few known carnivorous mushrooms. They're cool (and edible).

[-] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

What the fuck was I watching with someone growing mushrooms on sedated people? What the fuck? I know I didn't make that up, people think of some very disgusting things.

[-] hihi24522@lemm.ee 6 points 7 months ago

Was it that one episode of Hannibal where the guy grows mushrooms on diabetics he keeps in comas in the forest?

It was an episode of "Hannibal" - episode S01E02 "Amuse-Bouche."

Time to burn everything down and start fresh.

Yum roasted mushrooms

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 11 points 7 months ago

I mean, that's an advice I'll happily follow

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

Eh, they'll just cut them back, plaster over the holes and rent it to the next victim.

[-] eezeebee@lemmy.ca 6 points 7 months ago

This one time at my old basement apartment I went away for a few days and came back to find a mushroom had grown in the bathroom. Never saw it happen again after that one time.

[-] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago

Ive seen them at work growing out of the walls near sink drains and behind dishwashers where its always wet. Pretty fucking nasty seeing shit like that. Thankfully we were tearing the place apart for cleaning to prep it for a remodel.

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

The planet belongs to the fungi, they are just letting us live on it. For now.

[-] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 5 points 7 months ago

I should grow hen of the woods (maitake) all over my house. I could make a fortune at the eastern market, and have relatively clean mushrooms every night of the week. My cats might lick 'em.

[-] affiliate@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

how long until we see this pop up on a billionaire mindset youtube video?

short on cash? try growing mushrooms in your walls
