How do you get from "they rediscover street networks" to "we should use them for planning"? Human planners and algorithms can incorporate all sorts of limitations and additional information and then plan faster than the mycelium.

I find very unlikely for fungi to be on mars, since it would probably require some organic matter to process and consume... but I agree that fungi has superpowers and could be used in the future for a lot of amazing things.

Nuclear would’ve saved millions/possibly billions of people & millions/possibly billions of animals from immense pain & suffering. I’ve already seen historic droughts in Pakistan, Afganistan & Australia and forrest fires in Russia, Canada, Greece & Australia leading to animals starved to death or *burned alive by the millions.* This is already an unfathomable Hell that cannot ever be undone! Worse is yet to come. Even if we start building nuclear today we’ve lost decades, critical infrastructure, critical research & development, we’ve unnecessarily closed plants instead of retrofitting them. Every goddamn scientist & engineer says that nuclear is incredibly safe & nuclear waste is not an issue. We have billionaires like the Koch brother/s, despotic dictators like Putin & Arab princes like Mohamed bin Salman, all of them having their immense wealth & power *residing on oil & gas.* These are the most pragmatic, if not the most cynical & psychopathic people having unlimited money at their disposal & $Trillions more waiting for them in the ground. Their greatest enemy standing between them & $Trillions is nuclear power! Close to 99% of the NGOs, lobbying & articles that are anti-nuclear would absolutely evaporate without dirty oil money. Putin destroyed German minds, bullsh*ting them to close & abandon nuclear. This was devastating for German independence, which led to today’s German economic crisis, and not to mention the impact on millions & billions of beings! Highly emotional & easily triggered people are a disaster to Life, despite their good intentions they’re having a comparatively negative impact as soulless godless libertarians. Do you realize… countless animals burned alive?! You have no f*cking idea how many orders of magnitude is this above any impact nuclear might have.

I have one caveat about using edible mushrooms such as Pleurotus for clean-up. Fungi are generaly good at bioaccumulation. They are good at removing pollutants from the ground, but do not always break them down. The problem is that someone foraging for edible mushrooms will not necessarily know how polluted their substrate is, and might poison themselves unknowingly.

Very impressive and enlightening. Great job!

Yay!

Dude, I LOVE YOUR HAT!

humongus fungus among us

I love fungi!!! And who knows maybe they do carry nutrients between trees . Oddly enough many scientists make claims they cant prove or attempt to prove with biased research. Then on the other hand they often discredit any ideas that dont fit their narrative. And how many times has science claimed that things aren't possible and defame people because they dont have their credentials.......and 5 years later the idea is proven to be true, yet they dont acknowledge their mistake and will often capitalize on it. Science is very important but we have to remember many of these people are driven by agendas based on funding and biased opinions

Mars 'Puffballs' with no holes to puff from aren't puffballs. And they wouldn't survive in the surface

I’m telling you man, hemp and shrooms are the future! Unless we end up with so much of it around it starts to act as a plague (like all the cows we have or other animals that throw the balance of the ecosystems off)

Have you read 'mycelium running' by Paul Stamets?

Nappy Tek? Not seen that one on the shroom forums (9:00)

Do you belive in magic?

Great video, and 10/10 for the hat 👌🏻

Loved all of this video, but i am left wanting on the spritual side of mushrooms/psilocybin. Maybe another video to go deeper there? I can only imagine that more psychotropic influence (if responsibly used) would open up more people's thinking about the power of mushrooms in the ways you elucidate, Alana. What's most interesting to me about tripping, i think, is its similarities to deep meditation states in the brain. i am no scientist but i have heard that the "default mode network" of the brain (strangely labeled) which is so responsible for our sense of atomization/separateness is attentuated by magic mushrooms. Thus mystic truths like the oneness of all beings become far easier for the rest of us to grasp, perhaps without so much discipline. It's weird to talk about shortcuts to enlightenment given the capitalistic world you so rightly point out in each video, and yet i think giving ourselves a "leg up" (spore up?) in this regard could be quite welcome. Especially if we design protocols of meditation that complement magic mushroom intake.

I'm now subscribed. Nice hat!

Im using your videos for my college project on solarpunk architecture, thank you SO much for your work❤ :)))

Anyone have any book recs revolving around shroomy speculative fiction?

0:23 it’s not just that IT is here to stay - “fun guy”❤ is the net that holds our planet together. Life on this planet would not be possible without the fungi. Try dictating fungi …😂

nausicaa valley of the Wind 🍄

I love fungi. They are so weird and kinda scary. I imagine they can serve their part inside the computers of tommorow as well, maybe they'll be the basis for the first artificial brain.

i like your optimism

Mushrooms are like. Super cool

5:16 Myxomycetes already do it faster, and cooler Myxomycetes are cool too

CRAZY timing given mycelium leather replacements has recently become a hyperfixation (or perhaps, a hyphafixation)

Fungi also do a good job of synthesizing pharmaceuticals. After all, excreting enzymes is how they survive

This is crazy because I've heard of all those uses of fungi. I must be really tapped into the **network** on sustainable tech

This doesn't seem like the kind of thing a person whose brain has been taken over by a mycelial network would make, i trust this fun guy

I'm one minute in and wanted to say, this video is beautifully edited. Cheers, love

What a great video holistically. Research presentation everything. Well done !

I can't wait for the fungal communication network to be figured out and tapped into! Everyone has a communication device they connect to the ground close to where they are, and whenever someone reaches out for them the network finds them. FungiPhone? Phongi?

Not sure the details, but I remember once hearing that people were looking at using fungi bricks in the terraforming of mars, since a few spores is light so cheap to send to space. Just wish I could remember where I saw it

I think you're the future. We all are. Your research vast questions that need answers. We all have faults but that comes with creation.

I'd like to clarify one thing - I slipped in the bit about nuclear at the end as an example of how fungi could be used to potentially clean up radiation if cities were still to be powered by nuclear, but am not advocating for nuclear! Personally, I think a future based around community owned renewable energy is the best way forwards. Sorry if that was miscommunicated.
