It better, because I’ll drop Firefox like the others.

Thank you! Absolutely adorable, absolutely deadly.

The great orange heron, lol

No war but class war.

No no no, you become your own shareholder which means you must become homeless to fuck the shareholder over. /s

Awesome piece! Immediately makes me think of Spirited Away.

I like this style a lot, cool picture. Hades and Persephone is one of my favorite Greek myths. This also makes me think of Plato’s allegory of the cave. Now that it’s autumn it makes more sense that she’s entering the underworld.

Good stuff! Thanks.

It always makes me think of Ed, Edd n Eddy jawbreakers.

Thank you. I didn’t know about that community.

Pixel 7 Pro 😆. I’ve been looking into getting a camera, but I’m spoilt for choice and broke at the moment.

Very nice photo 👍

Yes, to my knowledge ghost pipes were and are used to make a tincture too. It supposedly relieves pain and anxiety.

Even since I saw a picture of Sarcodes sanguinea it has been on my bucket list of plants to find in the wild. It’s a beautiful plant. Unfortunately they really only show up on the upper West coast and I’m not near there.

Yup, exactly where I found these, on a coastal fen.

Yup, the pipe is literally this guy 🤣

This is the second time I’ve noticed you in the wild. This platform is too small…

I never realized they’re both a part of the Ericaceae family.

It seems their relation is in part due to the blueberry plants relationship with a fungus too, albeit symbiotic. The ericoid fungi penetrates the cell walls of the plant’s roots. The fungus can prevent heavy metal toxification and helps degrade organic matter for the plant to utilize.

Very interesting stuff! Source

No worries, our beetle bro is being incorporated into our carnivorous friend. Plant dude needs more nitrogen.

Awesome find! I found some a few months ago too.

Eh, they’re fairly common around my parts. Not like super common, but it’s not hard to find them. I think the pink variety is a little harder to find.
