This is how TLOU starts in real life.
It already started last year
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 always thought it was a tbsp of maple syrup a day to take care of a canadian problem
That just turns you more Canadian
Unless you get Vermont syndrome
A healthy person doesn’t have Candida Auris.
“But we don’t want people who watched ‘The Last of Us’ to think we’re all going to die,” Javaid said. “This is an infection that occurs in extremely ill individuals who are usually sick with a lot of other issues.”
bruh
Well how do you think it starts, soon enough the fungi will become smarter and start infecting less sick individuals
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
That was definitely the joke, yeah
Now that’s goblincore af
Eh, they’ll just cut them back, plaster over the holes and rent it to the next victim.
The planet belongs to the fungi, they are just letting us live on it. For now.
The Last of Us
A win is a win.
Everyone loves a good toilet mushroom
Toilet mushrooms go great with crotch fries, they really bring out that tanginess.
When I was in high school my family slept on a single mattress in the living room. For some reason I don’t remember, the water from the half bath next to the living room would leak out into the living room, and so the wall separating the living room and half bath would get colonies of mushrooms growing out of the baseboard. Those mushrooms weren’t as exotic as these, tho. I don’t recommend sleeping next to things that give off spores.
know that sleepy spore life
I don’t know why but mushrooms growing on things like carpet/flooring really scares me for some reason 😂 😱
Me too - for me because things like my floor are meant to be durable, and seeing it being destroyed so easily just by some spores flying around discomfits me.

Fungus can consume nearly anything organic, but it has to be damp. Even “dry rot” is only dry when you see it, it was once wet for the mycelium to spread through it.
I grew up in a wet climate where we feared mold and fungus, now I live in a dry one where we run humidifiers. You won’t ever see mildew or black mold here without a constant moisture source.
Bleach your whole house then seal it with flex seal. It’s the only way to be safe.
Bleach doesn’t penetrate, use vinegar instead.
I’ve never seen the term toilet mushroom before, and here it is all over this thread
Isn’t it amazing how the coming together of minds from across the world can bring fresh and new vocabulary to the world?
It’s one of the things I love most about being alive. When I was a kid I loved reading the names and flavor text of Duel Masters cards. They always seemed pulled from the most weirdest corners of people’s minds lol
My favorites were always the lovecraftian horrors that had really mundane descriptions.
DO grow Golden Teachers. Just ask uncle Ben for help.
You just need to be positive.
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?
You want to eat the toilet mushroom the most, don’t you?
Its already got some nutella on it too
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.
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.
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?
As far as kinda gross foods go I’d put mushrooms pretty far down the list. People eat crazy shit all the time. Once you clean em off there’s really nothing wrong with them.
Also most of the food you eat grows in actual shit.
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…
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.
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).
I felt the same until some point in high school when I realized all food ultimately grows from recycled rot, so I decided to try liking mushrooms. It was a lot easier to overcome the texture of those than of raw tomato or onion and opened up a whole new world of umami flavor. Just wash them and cook them; there’s no understanding the people eating them raw…
Yeah the piss on top of them is just added flavor!
You can always try the chew test.
Chew a bit and see if you die in 24 hours. If you don’t, eat away!
I feel like this system is flawed but I don’t know enough about mushrooms to refute it
The way to fix this test is to feed some to the landlord first.
Some mushrooms can be poisonous after 24h, just in case. angel wing mushroom shows no digestive symptoms but encephalopathy after 2 day to 1 month of latent period. The mushroom was known to be edible for a long time. Were it not for full screening for encephalopathy cases (enforced due to SARS spread back in 2004), it could’ve remain “edible” still now.
Most certainly not. Fungi/plants take up and bioaccumulate compounds.
Oyster mushrooms are one of the few known carnivorous mushrooms. They’re cool (and edible).
Is this early stages of Caelid?
Nah it needs more red, but it’s getting there.
I mean, that’s an advice I’ll happily follow
Time to burn everything down and start fresh.
Yum roasted mushrooms
