There has been tremendous growth in the past two days. It's much faster than I'm used to seeing mycelia grow, especially this shiitake strain which took forever to colonize the corn. I guess they really do like wood (that's what she said).

I've got to hand it to you G+'ers. The vast majority of you don't seem to be right wing racists. Please stick around. I'm serious.

I recently finished reading about Steven Pollock, a pretty wild figure in the "psychomycology" field in the 1970s, who was murdered in an apparent robbery.

This article about it is an interesting read: http://www.dariore.com/objects/mushroomresource/Hamilton%20Morris%20-%20Blood%20Spore.pdf

I've been having trouble with the Gibberfish searx instance being slow and flaky recently. A lot of times the UptimeRobot monitoring gets a 429 error (Too many connections). I dug around in the nginx settings and changed worker_connections from the default of 768 to 2048, and suddenly it's way snappier. Looks like it's a popular service :)

The white spots are the mycelia spreading through the substrate. The black spots are coffee :)

Does anyone know of any generic or Django-based themes for web sites? I'm an aesthetically challenged back-end guy, and it would be nice if there was an easy way to skin a Django site that doesn't look like shit. HALP!

Ok, WTF Spanish? How is "right" (the direction) and "straight" (the direction) the same word? Was there a vocabulary tax in Spain?

I've been watching Electric Dreams. I haven't read any of Dick's writings, but most of the episodes are more like vague scenarios with a lot of retro-futuristic trappings where something weird happens than they are traditional stories. They're well produced and well acted, but I'm not finding them particularly satisfying.

I mixed my fully colonized corn into one of the spawn bags I'd prepared. Now it will sit in the windowsill where the air is a bit cooler, and (hopefully) the mycelia will spread throughout the substrate.

The bird seed jars I inoculated several days ago don't show any sign of growth, but it can sometimes take a while.

More info for @[muppeth](/people/546e4f10007a013328636d735253f2ba) and other interested parties:

The spawn bag contains maple sawdust mixed with some used coffee grounds, which I then sealed up and sterilized in a pressure cooker. There is a hole in the bag covered with a Tyvek patch to allow it to breathe. However, I used high temp silicone to attach the Tyvek and it doesn't adhere well, so I had to use tape to hold it on. Next time I'll have to try a different adhesive, or a different patch material.

What I did this morning was cut open the bag, dump in the jar of corn, then taped it back up. I used my hands to break the corn up into individual kernels and then shook it to distribute them throughout. In a week or two, this will hopefully turn into a solid block as the mycelia spreads through the sawdust substrate. Then, I can slice the bag open and put the block in my fruiting chamber to let the mushrooms grow. I've never grown shittake before, so this may turn into a major fail. I'll continue to post updates.

I just realized that No doy is both grammatically correct and meaningful in Spanish.

So the Googlers got here, like, yesterday, and they're already deciding trying to re-design The Federation.

It's not. Trust me, you're not really a lesbian super-cop in the future in a flying car.
