Well that ain't gonna stop this vegetarian from eating delicious shiitake mushrooms.
In fact, I hope they enjoy the pain. They deserve suffering. They know what they did.

We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

You can't blame them. They had no choice. They had to do it
Oh I blame them. They will never get my forgiveness. I will not rest until I have done my part to rid the world of the shiitake menace via my digestive juices.
What did they do to you?!
They know.
They know.
But they were young and needed the money!
well they shouldn't have mouthed off to my grandma then.
These sources aren't great. A book from 1969 is one of them. I would've assumed DNA sequencing had already confirmed which one our ancestry and genome is more closely related to.
If we branched away from one 700 million years ago, and the other 800 million years ago, then it's more like "potato potatoe".
DNA sequencing is not necessary:
There are major overlapping characteristics shared by fungi and animals that plants do not have, said John Walker, a professor at Appalachian State University who studies fungi.
For example, both mushrooms and humans store carbohydrate energy as glycogen, while plants use starch to store energy. Both fungi and insects use the polysaccharide chitin to build cell walls, while plants use cellulose. And mushrooms, like humans, produce vitamin D when exposed to sunlight.
Was vitamin D and polysaccharide already a thing when fungi came to be?
There's new research that micorhiza was the first to settle on land, preparing the ground for plants, some 500 million years ago.
Not in terms of like, overall vibe.
You maybe.
Look, we can't all have been built by Dr. Soong in his lab on Omicron Theta.
And I would gladly give it up to be human
If you haven't been there yet, OneZoom is fun to explore. I am continually surprised by what I find there going down some random branch.
More closely related to Ork Boyz. WAAAGHHHH
Especially that fun guy
They are giant space pen**es
Every mushroom you eat is a delicious little fungus cock.
Fungi and animals form a clade called opisthokonta,
it's always the cladistics fuckers isn't it
