Cool idea for a community. This pic reminds me of something I would see in one of t hose hand colored stereographs.

I love the illustration, its exactly what I would want from a book like this

yeah thats understandable. if only they weren't so damn cryptic haha. Sometimes you can get a good idea of the spores if you can see them on the ground under the mushroom or on the stipe sometimes. depends on how much airflow the caps get wherever they popped up though.

My go to over the past few months has been camillia coffee roaster's ethereal blend. I've found it pretty forgiving of my evolving techniques and the flavor is great in amercano's to iced drinks. Rich with plenty of texture. would highly recommend

Looks kind of like an agaricus to me. Pretty hard to tell without gill and stipe shots. Ideally a sore print too. I'm no expert either haha.

well compared to some of the really dense classic sci-fi I considered it a light read lol.

I know that I read all the books and enjoyed them but its been years. The first one was the best in my opinion though.

I don't see many people recommending Ancillary Justice, but really enjoyed the series. I thought it was a pretty light read as far as Sci-fi goes, but it ticked all the right boxes for me.

The thing I loved about the characters in the expanse is that they were well fleshed out and while events were happening I could think about how other characters will react to it when news reaches them. It still had plenty of space opera/political intrigue for me too.

Dune, The Expanse, Seveneves, Snow Crash, Hitchikers Guide, Ancillary Justice are all good ones off the top of my head. I really enjoyed reading Neal Stephenson's novels because they are so thoroughly researched as to be plausible.

Wow this is a great shot! I just checked out their call and you're right they do have a laughing quality. Here's a youtube link for others https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNcwwVGCukc
