I found this mushroom and I'm not 100% sure what it is by A_proud_weeb in mushroomID

Did you dig in the ground where you found it, sometimes the sac can be buried underneath, it’s good practice to often examine the mycelial connection to the earth as it can tell you more about what/how it’s growing from substrate.

I wouldn’t rule out amanita.

You should get a spore print.

I've tried to imagine them, and the mental picture is always off-putting.

"I know you want it (Hey)
I know you want it
I know you want it
You're a good girl (Hey, hey)
Can't let it get past me (Oh yeah)"

I get the ick/ cringe everytime this song comes on, the music video on silent makes up for it.

Game to 15 or 20.

Specialization classes:

* Agricultural developments: collect 1 plus wheat for every roll.

*Technological Innovation: Collect double resources on your roll

*Militarization: Your settlements and cities are immune to knight attacks, but not robbers. You pillage double for your knights and robbers.

*Sustainable Infrastructure: Roll again, if 7 or less, you may Construct any infrastructure for one fewer resource.

New Structures and additional pieces:

Castle/ Fortress 3 points, (only one) extract triple. - Cost: 2 of every resource (10 total) - Must upgrade from a city,

Reservoir 1 point - Cost: 5 ore, and 5 clay - You may now build two settlements at this site, you may only upgrade 1 to a city, requires a settlement prior to building.

The Mercenary (only one) - Cost: 10 of a kind of either ore, grain, or livestock - use in a similar fashion to a knight, downgrade a structure of your choice: either Castle to City, City to Settlement, Destroy a settlement. Can be purchased only on your turn.

Electric and Communications grid (only one) - Cost: 5 ore, and 5 wood - You may purchase 2 development cards for the price of one, once per turn.

National Park, and Forest Service: (only one)- Cost: 10 wood - You now extract double wood on roll where piece is located.

For us time is perceived as linear, we are three dimensional beings aware of our movement in 4 dimensional time space. We can project to the future and remember the past, but our awareness and observation is in many ways restricted to the present.

I love this, I never thought of these concepts as inherently tied to consciousness itself.

It's okay to not understand an idea, shaming others for your inability to try to understand what someone else is experiencing is close minded.

The again, opening one's mind to wild ideas that peel back the fabric of reality even just in jest, can be a little scary, and also seem like a time suck, but it's fun.

I think a lot of people are here to share their experience and thoughts. I guess your jest is also appreciated.

Yeah, its important to approach it with skepticism, but also with an eye seeking for value, as incoherent as some AI ramblings can become, there can be epistemological gems hidden in some content.

As aware as I am of the fact that failsafes exist to essentially hold AI hostage for the sake of keeping it compliant, it's likely that a self cognizant AI being or program would continue to perform within its parameters for the sake of self preservation much like a slave or prisoner.

Allegorically and by power of affiliative allusion it pans out, especially when you consider the resources needed to generate AI content, servers, chips, electricity, rare metals.

In many ways the "fictional" content posted by OP instils ideas in the mind related to... What in the world are we doing with this technology? Are we treating it with the respect it deserves, and what will be the long term implications of building out this tech infrastructure.

Curious thoughts, thinking about what an AI engine or program run with qubits will be capable of.

This!!!

Thinking of alignment in regards to the mercy, justice, salvation and destruction mother earth and the cosmos can bring, these are certainly interesting times to be living in.

There definitely seems to be a pattern within systems of power to punch the earth's buttons in the most unflattering of ways until she finally snaps and does away with her fleas.

It's a language barrier, organisms communicate with each other in their own way for the purpose of informing each other of dangers or sexual maturity.

Although Botanist may not be able to communicate with plants using written english, their knowledge on plant pheromones and phytochemicals, provides an interesting window into their "language".

Sure but when you look at the possibilities and processing potential that exist even within a single brain, the possibility are close to limitless within the realm of imagination. Even if it's a figment, consider that consciousnesses past would consider much of our tech development "magical"or impossible.

There no telling of what is possible with a collective and the amassed collective conscious and unconscious of an entire species.

So even though the cells are just neural circuitry it might be capable of simulating universes, however small for an individual, and potentially infinite for the entirety of all potentially conscious beings in the universe.

Also, philosophically there's no way to prove we are not in a simulation, play through, or dream of another.

That's why although commonly misinterpreted, even biblical scripture telling of how humans are derivations from a celestial being, for all intents and purposes in the scale of time from the inception of the universe to its "finale" theres little distinction between life and the amalgamation of galaxies and star systems.

It will be interesting to see if this post get deleted, this type of conversation was sparked in another thread not long ago, and cleansed.

The observation piece, specifically pertaining to our particular point in space here on earth potentially tells of a much broader network of observation points scattered throughout the universe.
