Well, this local mushroom is either the Taste Scrumptiouspuff, which is amazing is stews, roasts and stirfry… or the murderkilldeathshroom. Would you say this fringe is curved with a swirl, or swirled with a curve?

Can’t tell if my back hurts because random millennial moment after mushroom foraging, or because my kidneys are failing.

Or both!

In my part of the world, there are at least a dozen+ culinary and/or medicinal mushrooms that are distinctive and easy to identify (even by casuals like me). These don’t really have any dangerous look-a-likes that also grow in the same area. I stick to those and those alone. Granted, even at 12 or so species that I can ID, that’s probably like a tiny fraction of the number of different species that exist in this area.

Some areas have mushrooms that are so similar the only reliable way to identify them is using a spore print.
Plants and animals tend to have more distinct identifying features like leaf paterns, bark texture or hair color.

I’m the opposite, I can tell some really difficult mushrooms apart due to good ol’ hyperfixation but I still know jack about plants and trees.

To be fair, knowing 10000 things is far from knowing everything.

So in Chinese traditions “10000” is just a stand in for “really big number”. Kind of like how, at least here in the states, well say “there’s a million of them”. Not that there is literally 1,000,000 of the thing, but more there is just a lot of them.

Still pretty impressive for an owl.

If words count as things, then most people know way more than that.

Even concepts can easily surpass that
