when i was reading the book entangled life which is about fungi and the author merlin sheldrake said that once he got his first author copies he was going to dampen the pages and use them to grow oyster mushrooms and yeast and then use the yeast to brew beer and then drink the beer with the mushrooms to complete the cycle of fungal knowledge. i was like really and truly this guy gets it

he ate his own words.

But really and truly. The cycle is not complete until he dies.

I’m not sure how or why, but this is goth as FUCK. 

his brother cosmo is a musician and made a theme song for it and god I wish it was longer because it slaps

His brother cosmo's music is cool as fuck tbh. The sounds in that song? Made by running electrodes through mushrooms. He has songs where every single sound comes from the ocean- the sound of coral reefs growing, of otters, of icebergs. He has songs about pelicans. He's a fun musician!

I know that you mean the "bloop" sounds in the backing track were made by running electricity through a mushroom, but I'm fascinated by the implication that he ran electricity through a mushroom and those vocals are what came out.

medieval heart-shaped prayer book in a medieval painting and in real life

"average knight radiant makes 5 dramatic entrances per week" factoid actually statistical error. average knight radiant makes 1 dramatic entrance per month. Kaladin Stormblessed, who makes 50 dramatic entrances every day, and Thespians Hoid, who makes 500 every hour, are outliers adn should not have been counted

Everyone always talks about "You Cannot Have My Pain," and with good reason, but I think this is my favourite Dalinar moment
