The Extreme Nutritional Benefits of Mushrooms: Varieties and Mechanisms of Anti-Cancer, Anti-Death, Nootropic Effects

The Extreme Nutritional Benefits of Mushrooms: Varieties and Mechanisms of Anti-Cancer, Anti-Death, Nootropic Effects

Mushrooms have been part of the human diet for up to 18,000 years, since the Upper Paleolithic’s Magdalenian phase, possibly beginning with bolete (porcini) variety mushrooms, which are still popular in Italian cuisine today. Delicious and an ample quality-protein source, mushrooms are also extremely beneficial to health in important ways. Generally, they are nootropic brain-protectants,…

I keep forgetting that some of my mutuals don’t follow this blog but they do my other one. And the other way around!!

This is the second time I’ve got softblocked on one acct and a message wanting interaction on the other

Tumblr really did learn about the "maximalist" "cluttercore" jokes / anti-minimalism and respond "bet," huh?

#we need users to see good posts every time they log in. #ergo we will make sure they log in and can't even see one post underneath all the random crap we want them to click on. #happy turn off tumblr live friday. Not even for whether I care about the thing just for how intrusive the extra visuals are. #tumblr is a functioning website

Op added this to their post that was detailing a case of tr@nsphobia specifically directed towards tr@ns men (which is literally the definition of tr@nsandrophobia) and related to phaIIoplasty. I can’t with these takes

Honestly turning off kudos emails on AO3 has done so much for my appreciation of kudos. I used to be completely apathetic to that number. I saw it as just a list of people that didn't like my work enough to leave a comment, ergo my work was bad, ergo I felt bad. Whenever I got an email from AO3, I got excited about a possible new comment, and whenever that email turned out to be kudos, I felt immense disappointment.

One of my mutuals suggested I turn off kudos emails and I thought well I don't care about kudos anyway so why not. It's been a year or so since then and I genuinely never would have expected that this would make me feel more connected to people who have left kudos on my fics. I very rarely get emails from AO3 now, but when I do it's always a comment. That excitement is almost never sullied by disappointment anymore. And whenever I log into AO3 and see that the kudos numbers on my fics are bigger than they were last time I checked — and, in case you didn't know, I'm here to tell you fic authors notice any change in those numbers — I excitedly go to the list of users who have left kudos on my work to read those new names on that list! It's like unpacking a gift, it's awesome. And it makes me feel awesome, too.

Gotham Knights Character Timelining

Finally finished getting all of the landmarks, and got some Belfry dialogue that helps.

According to the Belfry, Dick was taken in by Bruce and became Robin at age 12.

According to the Wayne Centre for Children landmark, Gotham Child Services began operating out of the upper floors ten years ago, and that’s where Bruce officially accepted custody of Dick.

Assuming Bruce got custody of Dick the first year they were operating out of there, Dick is 22 in Gotham Knights. Combined with the calculations of Jason’s age as about 3 years older than Tim, that gives the Robins a nice age gap of three each: Tim 16, Jason 19 and Dick 22. And with Bruce at 42, the idea that Dick is Bruce’s illegitimate son that Dick leans into in his interview isn’t so unbelievable. 

Robin being around for ten years works with the GCPD report on Robin thinking it’s only one person behind the mask and that they’re around age 18, they think Robin started at the youngest age that Dick has in the comics.

With a ten year timeline on Robin, the last three of which are Tim’s tenure, that leaves seven to cover Dick and Jason. Bruce’s audio log says Jason barely got a chance, so he didn’t have a long tenure as Robin. Going with 1-2 years, giving Dick 5-6 years as Robin, means Jason was taken in at 14-15.

Bruce’s audio logs go from operating solo in 28, to both Batgirl and Robin in 33, so there’s not long between their debuts. As Barbara started at 16, that makes her about four years older than Dick, ergo:

Barbara - 26, Dick - 22, Jason - 19, Tim - 16

hello fellow musical theater nerds! i’ve just managed to log back into this blog after a couple of years and boy things have changed some! ergo, now i’m in need of new blogs to follow and like-minded people to meet, so if you post about musicals at all, like/reblog this post or give me a follow if you’re so inclined! i’d love to see who’s still out here posting about musicals. i can’t be the only one left, right? ha… ha ha

JORGE IS THE FUCKING SANDWICH THIEF. These logs are from the hermit questline right. so obviously they have SOME relevance to him. and... Food dissappearing? Something tracking dust everywhere? Jorge being a survivor of the explosion and being found IN THE SHIPPING CONTAINER?

not to mention. the fact that theyre launching... debris? into space? my guess is that its neutronium corrupted equipment. That stuff is known for being indestructible AND isnt a publicly known material- ergo it cant be disposed of through usual means.

My theory? Jorge escaped containment. Hid out in the lab like a rodent for a while, surviving off whatever food was brought in. The evacuation happened, in all the commotion he hid in the shipping container full of neutronium... Which managed to protect him from the worst of the blast and ergo save him from an otherwise complete mass extinction event.

in conclusion,

hes a little burgerboy

#oxygen not included #burgerboy thing is an injoke with a friend #also theres another log in this quest that seems to be talking about mush bars #fun that its confirmed that dupes are probably not much bigger than a rat tho #bc how else would he have hid that long

[strayserval]

holy shit theres titles on text posts i forgot.

hiiiiiiiiiii gamers. whats up!!!

i have been “using” my old tumblr account to lurk for some years now, which is completely unattached from this account, ergo leading me to just Be Logged On on my other account and being to lazy to swap back and forth between this one, since i forgot about that weird “you can have other blogs but not really because you only get notifs and stuff from the main blog so it’s not truly seprate ???”

SOOOO BASICALLY i’m here now. will probably be posting just as much art here as i do on twitter which frankly isn’t that much, and will probably be using this space more as a personal reblog place alongside art posting

that said if twitter really does shit itself i’ll probably make a separate url here that’s exclusively for art so the people who don’t want to see incessant poasting don’t have to trudge through that. if anything i’d probably make THAT url the strayserval one, and this ~personal~ account a different one? i dunno. is there even a “turn off reblogs” type thing here akin to twitter? god i feel like i’m brand new to this site again LMAO i’m just playing it by ear

but yeah heieyieyi

Log #7

Today, Henry asked me about my favorite song. His reasoning is as proceeds: what, with me speaking to him from them airwaves and such, ergo I should be knowing a lot of music. I don’t know nearly as many tunes as he does. Practically lives off of them. I know my songs, what I sang — rags and the like — I know swing, jazz, and the blues — I know rock and roll. Sure, I’ve heard songs after that, but they don’t really live in me the same way, you know? Henry’s showing me all these songs from his home, and I can hear it and tap my toe to it in the moment — though they ain’t really toe-tappers — but after it kinda just slips from my mind. Oh, the lad got a good chuckle outta that one. Guess I’ll just have to keep singing them, he said.

RE: Tumblr shilling out to AI scraping tools

also see @.staff's post.

the news has made its way to me. I've opted out but in true "nothing-on-tumblr-ever-functions" fashion, i just can't rely on that working. Considering the guy who owns tumblr now is also a massive transphobe this is not surprising at all and i expect this will be 2018 Porn Ban-levels of dropping userbase any day now.

So with the rise of AI scraping, I probably won't be posting my art here or, honestly, anywhere at all in the future. There is nowhere left for artists to exist, and nowhere left for fandom to flourish like it used to, and that upsets me. tumblr is not and has not been perfect but this was truly the only last place for the freaks to exist without having to be marketable.

I have dozens, and by dozens i mean hundreds, of inactive blogs lying around on tumblr from over the years. a lot of them have my old art on them. not only do i not have the information to log into them anymore, but a lot of them only exist in reblogs, and exactly how are reblogs of art going to exist under the "pwease dont scwape my awt" thing? Will you be able to check that EVERY blog has opted-out? What about deleted blogs? Inactive ones? The blogs that belong to dead people? You get it. I'm sure I'm not the only one in this boat. you want me to log into what is probably close to a hundred blogs to switch a button that should be OPT-IN to begin with? -- But let's be honest, who's opting in to have their art fucking stolen? No one, and on tumblr especially.

Personally speaking here, I know i don't have a huge following and that's kind of by choice. So you can take what i say with a grain of salt. but as someone who want(ed) to work in the art field and was hoping ai scraping would be a passing trend, this is the nail in my coffin. I give up. I'm not posting art anymore, period. I've dealt with all of this for long enough. Everyone and everywhere is hostile for artists, including other artists, every single website, and now companies and corporations. If this is the future it is fucking bleak. I've made a lot of friends and memories through art, and please don't get me wrong, i am so grateful. But even so, I make no money (not like i ever tried), i don't enjoy the process, and i'm just a drop in the ocean of artists on the internet. Instead i get to worry about: people harassing others over what art they make, art being suppressed in the algorithms, artists being expected to comply with bullshit regulations, companies scraping our hard work to feed back into their dumbfuck machine, and in my case honing my skills for almost a decade with nothing to show for it to my colleagues.

I love art. I love(d) making art, at one point. My philosophy is that art is made to be shared. but if i cannot do one, i cannot do the other. I myself cannot share art safely, ergo i myself have no reason to make it. I'll find a way to do what i love but this is not it.

as for everyone else. i hope you don't give up hope, i hope you keep fighting to fix this. But personally speaking i am done. Look around, look outside. everything is trying to kill us. and the last thing i need is having to worry about whether my art is getting fed into an ai or glazing everything before i post. I know it will get worse. I'm just tired.

#you're free to reblog this i don't care anymore #I'm over it. #i'm over everything #I'll keep writing #and if i ever finish anything it'll go on my ao3 #but until tumblr rolls this change back #(which it probably won't but we can dream) #i'm just done here #indiposts

Did you stop playing FF14 for any particular reason? Did something make you not like it anymore?

Nope, I still highly recommend the game, with the caveat that the game aspect of it begins in the Stormblood postgame (Tsukoyomi specifically), and before that, it's not at all a video game because there's no gameplay beyond having a functioning brain and being able to press buttons, and the other caveat that the storyline really starts in Heavensward, because the writing before then is a powerful anesthetic. This may sound like I'm backhanding the game something fierce but this is my honest, good faith opinion of a game I legitimately enjoyed and do not at all regret spending both time and money on. If you go in with those warnings in mind (in my opinion) it's an amazing experience overall.

I stopped playing simply because I accomplished all I set out to do on it. I am not an MMO guy. I started FF14 with these objectives:

Find out if the narrative was as good as people claimed it was -> It was!

Play through current Savage content through Party Finder -> I did that! It was fun.

Join a static and play Savage content with them -> I did that! I loved my static, the voice chat was always fun.

Then, I found my favorite content in the game: Bozja. That gave me an extra objective:

Beat all 6 of the superboss duels in Bozja, collect all Pages, become Emblazoned (10/10/10) and basically, clear Bozja 100%.

And I did all of it! Technically, I'm at 99% because I am only missing the Delubrum Reginae Savage clear, but I need 47 other players willing to play that if I want to be able to attempt it. It's already old content, so not a lot of people try it anymore. Hell, even getting a queue for regular DR is an ordeal. But otherwise? I busted my ass learning all 6 duels, beat them, and got all Pages.

And when I finally beat the final duel, Lyon's 2nd duel, and finished all that Bozja had for me... I sort of didn't want to play anymore. I would log in for a few more days but I would just sort of meander around Coerthas, decorate my house, or play the market, but... I wasn't really playing anymore. I would just yawn a lot and find myself with nothing to do. After around a week of that, I realized I was done with the game. I 'beat' FF14. I accomplished all I set out to do. I had fun.

So I cancelled my subscription and uninstalled. The game did its job, and it did it amazingly well. I had fun. I did not want to play it anymore, because I was satisfied and had nothing left to do in it.

It also helps it happened around the time Elden Ring was about to release, haha. A friend of mine said "well, it makes sense you love Bozja so much, it's practically solo content with other people instead of multiplayer content" and, it made a lot of sense: I prefer doing my thing, by myself, instead of necessarily needing people for content, and having to go along (forgive how this will sound) with their fuck ups holding me back, when I'm doing perfectly well by myself. That was the appeal of the Bozja duels, really: It's super difficult content, but it's 1 on 1, if you lose in a duel, it's because YOU fucked up, not because one of the other seven people fucked up and took you all down with them. Every time I lost a duel, it was a learning experience, and the solution was simple: I need to get better. I simply need to play better and learn the fight better, that's it. I can't get better for one or more other people in a group of eight. I can get better for myself. Ergo, I like solo content. I mean, I pretty much played through FF14 as a single player game, anyways (I'm so sorry, everyone that made a Coeurl character or transferred to Coeurl because I was there, I'm a hermit in essence, at the end of the day).

But, again, I loved my time with the game and I seriously think it's a wonderful game. I didn't stop playing because I dislike it. I love FF14, it's just, it did its job, and smashingly well at that.

I haven't yet used a real computer (laptop, desktop) in 2 months. Have been holding off since coming back because I have been dealing with a flair up of OUCHHHHH in my arm/shoulder and no matter how ergo I make my set up, anything that isn't an iPad or phone will cause MORE FLAIRUP.

I can get a lot done on my ipad. Not a laptop/desktop (we've all read *that* post) by any stretch of the imagination but I am a power user blah blah blah which means i can push my ipad to work almost like a laptop. Not quite, but pretty close.

All that said....

...

The tumblr app for iOS has been completely fucktacious for the past month. Just. idk. Broken. And I keep (attempting to) update it (reinstall it) and ugh.

But you know what? I can log into tumblr via firefox on my ipad and that is what I am about to do.

Hopefully it ends up being a happier experience.

 ^this edit is a joke, of course... Dirk has his moments where he’s genuinely thoughtful and helpful, but the way he comports himself in conversations, even with friends, is like...

>brofriend explicitly expresses excitement towards a movie

>immediately makes fun of said movie

He justifies his usage of ‘’so gay’’ here one with being a future baby ergo not living in a ‘’society’’ for it to have connotations anymore, but the fact that he said it at all....like... he is a historian he KNOWS these connotations...and he said it anyway....he so easily could’ve said literally anything else...

These are just what I got rapidly skimming, like, five of his pesterchum logs, so there's undoubtedly more examples... I just reflect on these mannerisms a lot and think about how much I would hate it if a friend ever talked to me like this, it’s so insanely rude... he's naturally very pessimistic and I think that really shows in the way that he constantly ribs his friends in ways that I think often go "too far".

And then there’s. well.

this one...tears in my eyes laughing at how dirk doesn't do anything to stop caliborn from calling his friends bitches. sorry. it's funny he's so funny

BGD; Jake's inherent perception of dirk is that he is impolite.

I'm trying not to put too many caliborn examples here because they just naturally get into this antagonistic rhythm with one another that dirk doesn't really show with any other character, and because caliborn is...well. caliborn. and kind of naturally deserving of ridicule by his conversational partners... but dirk is the only one that ever really dishes it out to him. I feel like this is the closest snapshot to what dirk is actually like and what he's capable of being... much of this can easily be attributed to not being socialized, I think. he was never shown how to BE polite, I imagine he learned how to talk to people off of witty movie banter that often emulates this kind of repartee. that sort of thing.

in the thought exercise we're doing here at ottiliere labs we're building off of his canonical assholery in a specific way. specifically spending a lot of time really sitting with the extent to which this guy is cynical and snotty and aloof and disingenuous. canonically of course, being kind of a dick is an important aspect of his character and removing that of course takes something away from who he is. but putting him in other situations and keeping that general douchery about him... it has ample opportunity to grow into something that would make him quite rancid to be around. I think I would greatly dislike talking to this guy, I think he would be overwhelmingly rude to me and wouldn’t really care how it made me feel... even if I was his friend.

#dirk strider #homestuck #opining #I am very aware that canon dirk likely isn’t acidic to the extent our dirk is. in fact I do talk about this often #in dms. maybe here? I cannot remember #I intentionally throw him under the bus of life. he is downtrodden in a specific way soas to elicit a more extreme version of his canonical #pessimism... this is what life is about i think. that dirk has the potential to become this
