    Lmfao, this is a completely nondisruptive protest, it literally does nothing to stop people from getting to work.

    In the UK, we’ve been having protests which actively disrupt traffic, which gets people going “why can’t they protest in ways that affect oil refineries/politicians etc” except people were doing that prior with no media coverage, and since having gained media coverage and then doing that, they get criticised for protests targeting politicians…

    What this goes to show is that disruptive protesting will get media coverage, and that many people will pay lip service but will inherently lose their shit over people protesting if it even has the slightest chance of disrupting someone’s day.



  • I curious how much people dying of a broken heart plays into that?

    My sister whose an MD said it was a known thing that when people get up there in age, it’s not uncommon for someone to pass relatively soon (taking like within 5 years) after their partner passes.

    For some people it can be days/weeks if they’re not in good health, for others it can be years.

    I think it’s a similar reason to why folks will often struggle with memory after their partner passes; in lifelong partnerships people build shared memories where one half will remember some details which the other half won’t and visa versa. That and the decline in socialisation, human interaction combined with the depression and isolation that follows the passing of a partner.

    I’m curious as to whether people who lose their partners whilst still relatively young (40s) experience the same decline in life expectancy, and whether them having children correlates with higher life expectancy or not in those scenarios.




  • Sorry if I came off as short/rude at all! Obviously if you have any more mushroom photos/want help trying to identify them or have already identified them then please still post the photos on this community; it’s rather fun trying to work out what they are and Hawaii has some interesting mushrooms by the looks of it!

    I’m not going to make an uneducated guess, but I will say when identifing mushrooms it’s useful to get an overall shot (like you’ve provided), but also a closer shot of the mushrooms and a shot of the underside of the mushroom (where the gills/pores are) as a lot of the key idenfying/differentiating features aren’t super obvious from a distance

    Edit: tbh I think you’ve got two distinct mushrooms in the photo; the more red and pale bracket fungus and the more brown and uniform fungus closest to the camera

    Edit2: were the mushrooms on stems or were the visible parts in the photo connected directly to the wood?
