Haha yeah sorry with the Q&A style response, the process was as much about me working through them in my own head as it was about giving a reply. I don't claim to have any answers and I very much enjoyed the question.

Great question Glaukus, When I started reading I thought you were going to discuss the sense of "me" in a metaphysical sense. like am I the sum of all my relationships, interaction and personality traits, questions of the soul etc but I like how you have approached this reasoning of me from the physical world. I suppose I can have a go at the questions as far as the entity that is "me" comprehends them: What are my physical boundaries? good starting point, I would say that me is the physical body only, however I would also impose a buffer of personal space that is someone was in it I'd say it was me/mine. Generally it's closeness but maybe these days me is my body and my 1.5m social distance. What about my hair and nails? definitely still part of me, even after they are shed they are just parts of you that you left behind. There is "me" in the dust on top of the shelves where I work and in my house What about the food I eat? I would say no. there's food before during and after consumption that isn't you, only the moment a nutrient is absorbed do I believe it becomes part of me. Is my boundary defined as my skin edges? as above, but further to breath I would say yes, from the perspective of the particles until they dissipate or dry up. What about my senses? What are my senses? Electrical impulses decoded by the brain. your reaction to the stimuli is you not the stimuli itself. There is something beautiful about a song played only to me though, is it mine or is it them? This is pure poetry and really got my mind ticking over, Yours cease to exist before your body does. I love to think that memories of you still constitute you. A romantic notion probably not in line with my previous debate. When did I begin as a body? Conception. When does my body stop being part of me? when you return to the earth. When pharaohs are exhumed and bones found I would say that that is still them/me. If I am cremated, the ashes are me. In that sense immortality as me exists in the elements we comprise then yes, as we are all created from the same matter, and return to the same matter. Then there is no "me" there is only "us"

How did you dry them to be viable. I also have purple corns and I've just hung them on the cob

Cute puppy

What mushrooms were affected by the change?

What would be the recommendation for potting medium or soil prep?

i'll come

Green grocer just for scale haha

my recipe is 1g light malt - from the home brew shop 1g Agar - from the asian grocer 50ml water - from the tap Never had any problems with oysters etc. I use a method called pasty plates which uses little containers like you get from the chinese restaurant for sauce.

I'm not sure sometimes. They are wrecking machines.

My chickens ate mine they love it so beware.

What soil temps do you guys look for and at what depth?>
