In North America it's possible to mistake the poisonous eastern jack-o'lantern mushroom for chanterelles because their gills are small. Fresh eastern jack-o'lantern gills glow green in the dark though, so as long as you know that fact it's pretty easy to tell them apart.

I remember when I had been fooled into believing it was.
That looks amazing. Are those spindly white mushrooms enoki or something you foraged?
Mix them in. We need to get out of the mindset that animation is not deserving of the same respect as live action.
They're not the same, but it's easy to see how people become too jaded and cynical to vote.
Here's an article from the corporate media about the DNC's response to Mamdani's victory, and Here's an article from independent leftist media about the Islamophobic attacks against him.
I won't include an article from right-wing media, but I'm sure you can guess how they're coping with the electoral victory of a Muslim socialist immigrant born in Uganda to Indian parents (not well).
The post we're commenting under has also included some articles.
Even if it were the case that they didn't want to be there, "just following orders" is not an acceptable excuse for committing a genocide. The morally correct thing to do if you're compelled to service in the IDF is to refuse and face the consequences, because they cannot be worse than the moral injury of being tasked with the murder of innocent children.
Capitalism describes a system of exploitation by which a privileged few profit from the labor of others. Regulated capitalism (also known as welfare capitalism) has only ever come about as a result of popular labor and social movements (which tended to be explicitly socialist) fighting for labor rights and threatening revolution, causing the owning class to allow reforms and expansion of welfare as a form of appeasement. This happened in the US mid-20th century and it succeeded in taking the wind out of the sails of the movement, and since then the owning class has steadily eroded the welfare state through austerity.
Capitalism should not be preserved because it creates inequality by design; that is its purpose. You can claim that is a childish perspective, but here are some of the people you're calling childish:
- Albert Einstein
- Helen Keller
- Martin Luther King Jr
- Malcolm X
- Bertrand Russell
- George Orwell
- Oscar Wilde
- Pablo Picasso
You have a limited perspective right now because you've been conditioned to dismiss alternatives with little thought. So was I, but I've since learned the history of capitalism and how it functions, as well as the various movements against it and what they've accomplished.
They're all maintaining decorum (something they would die before dropping) by congratulating him on his win while denouncing his policies and stopping short of endorsing him. Ever since his victory all the "liberal" corporate media has been praising the "energy" of his campaign while criticizing his policies as dangerous and painting his pro-palestinian views as anti-semitic. Don't even try to pretend the way the DNC has been responding to this is normal. In nearly every other democratic primary the DNC have been quick to line up behind the victor.
Yes, of course. That must be why they tried ferociously to stop him from winning the primary with Islamophobic smears and are now freaking out that they failed, and why the corporate media (yes, even the "liberal" media) are all crashing out.
If NYC uses ranked choice voting in the general as well and Cuomo learns from his disaster of a campaign then he might try coalition-building with Eric Adams or others to pull off a win by getting neoliberals and MAGA to gang up on Zohran. It's a headscratcher for me because I never expect neoliberals to learn from their mistakes, and yet they might actually feel forced to because they never fail to pull out all the stops against progressives, let alone an actual socialist.
The underside instantly darkens when scratched.
It's a very vibrant red underneath, I'm too curious not to try and narrow down the species.
More angles here:
I think it might be a green-spored parasol which is poisonous, but it's hard to tell at this stage. Was hoping it's something edible because there's lots of them and they're massive.
Thank you! I'm saving this for later.
