how do you grow it outside? I wanna grow lionsmane one day but like, idk if I want to continuously by grow bags forever. I kinda want to keep it like a perenial plant that I just harvest periodically.
Gonna have to push back a little bit here. Lions mane taken in controlled and limited quantities can probably help with memory issues but eating an entire fruiting body or part of one is pretty irresponsible. For alot of people it might be harmless but it seems to trigger severe disassociative mental illness that's similar to people who have post-finderistride syndrome and can also really fuck with people's serotonin levels if taken in excess and can cause an overdose that creates sertonin syndrome similar to how taking too much molly or SSRIs can fuck your brain up in the wrong dose.
I support people taking Lions Mane diy style but be safe and keep it in small and controlled doses and if you start to feel weird then please stop.

I've lived in cities adjacent to NYC my whole life and have visited it since 2013 and seen how it's transformed over the decades.
its really sad how finasteride is mostly helpful for men but for a tiny percentage of men traps them into an infinity hell where they are constantly disassociating and incapable of feeling attachment or joy. It's a deeply evil medicine that should honestly be illegal until we figure what's up with post-finasteride syndrome.

meh, philly and chicago basically have a similar amount of transit coverage per capita (im not being super scientific here but you get what I mean) and have real people living in them and not just software engineers that are too snubby for LA
honestly new york city is one of the richest places in the world so this is hilarious. if anything it's sort of why NYC sucks now it's basically just all of the most annoying suburban upper middle class losers from everyone's high school living on top of eachother. I don't see the appeal it has for people other than "look pretty"
honestly it'd be cool if they got trump up there
I was wrong about her being in district where she could lose to a republican but yeah I was right. Every medium sized half-urbanized area has "The Progressive Crank" that takes all of the air out of the room when it comes to forming an electoral opposition to the maineline democrat. My city's version of this is a local progressive who is well liked by some parts of the labor movement but the rest of the left stays away from due to his abusive behavior towards his former spouse.
Honestly while I haven't followed her political career if I could make a guess the good news is her campaign won't get anywhere. Internet weirdos really think they can take on a democratic party political machine but I'm sure there's gonna be an establishment democrat or two that's gonna see that some internet weirdo is their main left-wing primary component and is gonna say "Game" and flood the race with money so hard that I'd be surprised if she gets a double digit primary vote.
Even if she does win, unless she's in a safe state then I'm sure she'll get cut off by the DNC for daring to run against their anointed democrat and will get absolutely smashed by a car dealership owner.
This was my first impression before even googling her, I wonder how close/far my speculation is to the truth
I get where you're coming from but keep in mind that research on lion's mane cultivation is pretty recent and that it's affects aren't as really well understood as the effects of let's say asprin.
For the majority of people they are gonna get a nice tasty treat when eating lion's mane but for a noteworthy amount of people they are going to get horrific mental illness.
I think that sure some daily doses are probably too high for some people because we need a safe dosage recommendation and right now we don't have good research on that but also if you are incorporating this into your diet and eat this let's say 1-2 times a week at a dosage that's waaaaay bigger than a capsule (a fruiting body is obviously larger than pill form) then you have a similar risk.
