i often wonder how many of these articles are cia funded to normalize "elites" or "leaders" being a separate cast of society above the rest of us. left vs right doesn't work anymore, so they want to glorify being superior through wealth, and at the same time, normalize being a hypocrite because they actively encourage corruption.
That's because they're still on reddit. Need to wean off completely from social media addictions, not only halfway through, and reddit is even more toxic hivemindish than most other social medias. It's healthier for your mental health to have real life friends timelines with stupid posts and the zuch on your shoulder than it is dodging mass amount of downvotes on reddit for speaking honestly. Anything that will bring you back to your devices at a notification's notice is bad for your sanity. Control how you focus your attention through and through.
Says who? They do present properties of thinkers when they regulated entire ecosystems via their networks of mycelium. They even communicated with micro electric impulses. Start thinking outside of the box, not within boundaries of definitions.
planet is an amalgam of rocks and minerals, heat is provided by the sun, water could have been of extraterrestrial origin, and then enters fungi using heat and humidity to develop mycelium, mycelium turns minerals into compost with enzymes, space dust introduces bacteria which evolves through thermal vents a/biogenesis, and voila, you have life. We do know that before vegetation, Earth had fungi structures made of half rock, half fungi flesh, and they probably evolved into actual trees. At the same time, lichen spread from underwater to the surface of the Earth. Fungi released CO2, creating an atmosphere for plants to develop. The rest is evolution.
I firmly believe that life on Earth was triggered by spores meeting water and developing mycelium networks breaking down minerals into nutrients and slowly taking advantage of photosynthesis to develop more complex life forms. Spores can easily resist the vacuum of space, and pass any form of great filter. They do help create enzymes and uptake nutrients, they do help break down minerals, they do communicate with entire ecosystems, and so much more we barely understand. This would mean that fungi are of alien origin.
These numbers were compiled by a mathhead who knows nothing about renewable agriculture meets new technologies. To be clear I'm not saying growing crops to turn them into biofuels is a good idea, but there are plenty opportunities to render the calculations based on arable land and energy output irrelevant.
linearity is an illusion created by the bias of being trapped at one level of cognition and perception. if something can not work with abstract geometrical vector rules in an exponential way, then we got something wrong at the local level. even if it makes sense from that local perspective, in that local frame of reference. biggest example of this is our lack of theory of time that is compatible with quantum mechanics.
