Welcome to Gaia! ::

It's a different experience though. On a movie screen,
unless you get shoved into a small theater and/or happen to have a projector at home,
everything is so much bigger and you feel tiny. wink

Watching things with friends is nice too though, but watching them on your own ... feels sorta lonely.
Pizzas! emotion_kirakira emotion_dowant
(Wait, how do pizzas align with your workouts?)

I ... don't think they're picking them to get high but rather to just eat them.
I don't know what kinds of mushrooms people use to get high and whether those grow here.
We do have a number of mushrooms that, at best, give you a rather bad trip and at worst kill you.
(I vaguely remember that a popular novel author needed a liver transplant after eating mushrooms he picked himself.
I don't remember who exactly it was tho.)
Trouble is that those that kill you often/sometimes look very similar to edible ones,
which is part of why I wouldn't want to risk that.
Another problem with mushrooms that may still be current is that they accumulate cesium from the Chernobyl fallout.

Besides, you can usually get mushrooms from the supermarket or a market.

Oh good!
I just watched Prometheus because I vaguely remember being interested back when it came out.
Big mistake. gonk

I was only teasing you. :3

Isn't toasted bread with cheese and butter rather similar to pizza tho?
Replace the butter with olive oil and add some tomato sauce and it's almost the same.
I usually eat cereal for breakfast.

Supposedly, you can take your picked mushrooms to some expert to examine,
but this really seems like a lot of time and effort.
You can also order grow-your-own-shrooms sets tho.
It comes as a box of saw dust and a bag of mushroom spores.
You wet the saw dust and add the spores and wait a few weeks, basically.
Not all kinds of edible mushrooms can be cultivated but some can.

I tried to make cookies today and they ended up becoming mini-muffins.
But they're so tiny and cute and tasty! emotion_awesome

Today in the woods I had an encounter of the kind that I don't care for. I came running out of the woods and did a sliding stop at this sight.
What was not anywhere in sight was the owner of this thing.
What is it with people who cannot realize that not everyone thinks their dogs are "cute" and "nice"
especially when they look like this and stare at you?

Also, it seems it is night shift on the film set tonight - or whatever they call it.
They have a floodlight on a crane and I wonder when they're going to switch that off. o.o

I wish it was more than hypothetical. emotion_awesome
And yeah, I know. Once I had to sit through a very long and very boring talk about it and was all: o.O

I'm not an expert by any means but I think it's too cold for that. It was about 10°C.

Even if they're not aggressive, people shouldn't just let them run around entirely on their own like that.
It's just inconsiderate, especially when it's a full-grown specimen of a breed that is well-known to be aggressive.
When I let guest dog off leash I make sure to keep her in sight.
(And that there are no bodies of water anywhere nearby.)
And she usually doesn't bother much about people.

It's a static light though.
