Friendly reminder that SSRI class antidepressants, such as Lexapro, Paxil, and Zoloft at normal doses end the hallucinations associated with serotonin-acting hallucinogens like DMT, psilocybin, LSD, and MDMA without sedation or side effects in minutes.

Brown them in lots of butter and salt until they're crispy. A lot of water needs to come out for this to happen. Be patient. This works especially well for Cantharellus species and Coprinus comatus.

What's with english speakers and not using common names for most mushrooms? Pretty sure it's done with plants and other stuff as well.

[Anonymous No.11848745]

Common names are obnoxious and overly dramatic most of the time.

Latin binomial names are theoretically cross-cultural identifiers whereas vernacular names can be highly specific to certain localities. "Snake plant" could mean 100+ plant species depending on where you are and who you are talking to. Also, some edible mushrooms do not have well-known or stable common names.

Why are you intimidated by Latin binomials? They offer far more precision than common names and typically provide more information in their name (i.e. etymology).

Most English-speakers do NOT do this, it’s just this one pretentious fuck. When you go to an American supermarket that carries chanterelles, they’re called chanterelles.

Taking the two examples up there :
Chanterelles: Pfifferling
Coprinus comatus: Has a bunch of names, most have to do with ink though. The simplest one just translates to ink mushroom. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schopf-Tintling
Language is german btw.

>>11848897
Chanterelles were a bad example I suppose but this is definitely a noticeable thing with less well known mushrooms. Even if you look up the wikipedia articles the english ones are labelled after the scientific name with common names in the first paragraph, vice-versa for the german articles.

I guess this is quite off-topic so I'll stop discussing it.

[Anonymous No.11848922]

>>11848908
Probably has something to do with the fact that your country has a much older mushroom-eating culture than America does. In Europe, mushroom collecting isn't so rare. In the US, mycophagy beyond portobello market mushrooms is typically restricted to academics and hobbyists, both of which are more inclined to use latin binomials, hence their prominence here. I use them because I have a background in mycology, and common names aren't very useful. For example, if I tell you that I've collected a specimen of destroying angel with no other info, you have no idea what species I've actually collected. It could be Amanita ocreata, A. bisporigera, A. verna, A. virosa, etc. All of these are referred to as destroying angels. Common names are useless for actually telling you which kind of mushroom I'm referring to.

Getting hit by a fairly gnarly rainstorm here in Cali, only been going for a few hours and some tree limbs already dropped in front of my place.

Chanterelles grow in my area so it'll be nice grabbing some from the oak groves.

Any tips on mushroom hunting? I know not to eat any shit unless 100% on identifying the gills, shape, ect. Was going to head around a creek but apart from dead wood/leaves I wouldn't know where to focus.

Also have a friend from my old job who's 40 years older and been a botanist all his life so I plan to bring whatever I get to him first as to avoid any destroying angels.

or how to get serotonin syndrome in 5 minutes

just pop a fucking benzo and be done with it

[Anonymous No.11852283]

>>11852194
You can check the medical literature yourself it does NOT cause serotonin syndrome as the SSRI is much more strongly bound to the receptor 5HT2A and knocks off the hallucinogen.

Benzos are sedating, SSRIs are not, and SSRIs directly cease the hallucinations in minutes in a way benzos cannot.

>Any tips on mushroom hunting?
if there is a big, shallow hole in the mushroom, some snail nibbled on it but it's perfectly fine otherwise (more likely to be edible too)
also chanterelles are the only edible mushrooms that I know of that never contain worms, you have to split others apart to be sure
