Okay. This is a pretty big deal in the world of mycology. Historically fungi have been divided up into either parasites that siphon resources from plants, mutualists that cooperate with them, or saprotrophs that break down decaying organic matter (plant and otherwise.) The genus in question, Mycena, has traditionally been made of saprotrophic species feeding on decaying wood.
However, what scientists are observing is Mycena fungi displaying primitive mutualistic behaviors, specifically providing living plants with nitrogen and getting carbon in return from a living partner, or getting to chow down on the plant's remains once deceased. This shows a significant level of adaptability that hasn't been observed in fungi beforehand, though given how much we don't know about fungi there's a good possibility this isn't an unprecedented event.
It doesn't surprise me one bit that we're seeing this in Mycena. These fungi are especially opportunistic; in fact, that mushroom growing out of a frog's skin that we saw a while back was also a Mycena species. Perhaps we need to add bonnet mushrooms to raccoons, dandelions, and other hardy generalists as symbols of scrappy survival in spite of environmental pressures.

you know what. i think most political memes are cringe
i think this genre of political memes is rly corny at this point bc i’m rly over little jokes that r supposedly meant to mock our leaders that really end up kind of endearing them like yeah we have to cope by laughing and pretending like we’re cyber bullying them when rly it ultimately exists as a pacifier for our outrage and desire to fucking see these people be [removed from power]. we need a new wave of edgelordism and normalize funny memes about these people that contains [cartoonish blood and gore imagery coupled with language a teenage boy with behavioral issues would speak]
