"If you do it

I wont touch you there again"

I love you and the way

Your opinions of me bend

would you still love me

If we never had sex

I can feel you in the blood

dripping down my legs

the safety stayed

until someone new

meant you met a boy

and "he wants you too"

did you see in him

What you saw in me

am I still your girl

when my bird's nest bleeds?

you liked bestgore

and you liked liveleak

but the blood in me

only made you weak

am I still your girl

or am I just your boy

was i ever your friend

or was I just your toy?

you said "I miss when we were friends"

But were we ever really friends?

or was I just another means

to a disappointing end?

I wasn’t beautiful anymore. Now I looked like what I was, a raw wound. (words from White Oleander by Janet Fitch)

Okay. This is a pretty big deal in the world of mycology. Historically fungi have been divided up into either parasites that siphon resources from plants, mutualists that cooperate with them, or saprotrophs that break down decaying organic matter (plant and otherwise.) The genus in question, Mycena, has traditionally been made of saprotrophic species feeding on decaying wood.

However, what scientists are observing is Mycena fungi displaying primitive mutualistic behaviors, specifically providing living plants with nitrogen and getting carbon in return from a living partner, or getting to chow down on the plant's remains once deceased. This shows a significant level of adaptability that hasn't been observed in fungi beforehand, though given how much we don't know about fungi there's a good possibility this isn't an unprecedented event.

It doesn't surprise me one bit that we're seeing this in Mycena. These fungi are especially opportunistic; in fact, that mushroom growing out of a frog's skin that we saw a while back was also a Mycena species. Perhaps we need to add bonnet mushrooms to raccoons, dandelions, and other hardy generalists as symbols of scrappy survival in spite of environmental pressures.
