I actually took four gram te not before this, 31 00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:49.079 but a couple hours ago, so I'm kind of how 32 00:01:49.319 --> 00:01:52.079 uh at the beginning, I thought I was dying. It 33 00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:56.760 seems like you look jolly, do I yeah, I'm very 34 00:01:56.840 --> 00:02:01.400 I'm very, very in a good mood. It always resets, 35 00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:03.879 and even like at the beginning, I hate the first 36 00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:07.840 little bit. And I was hungover, which is like not 37 00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:09.639 too hung over, but I drank a little too much 38 00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:12.199 last night after we we went we live streamed a 39 00:02:12.199 --> 00:02:14.319 puppet Master and that will be going up on Patreon. 40 00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:15.319 Everybody a lot of fun. 41 00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:18.800 And then I late, I was, yeah, that was pretty late, 42 00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:21.159 and then I went and I will I finished puppet 43 00:02:21.159 --> 00:02:24.400 Master too when I went downstairs and drank and and uh, 44 00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:27.400 what a little overboard. So I feel like it's always 45 00:02:27.439 --> 00:02:31.360 sketchy to me to to do mushrooms and then have 46 00:02:32.840 --> 00:02:37.080 to is to do mushrooms and then to essentially like 47 00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:39.400 if you're drinking and like messing with mushrooms, I'll call 48 00:02:39.439 --> 00:02:39.919 on mushrooms. 49 00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:41.360 I feel like it's a bad mix. 50 00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:44.479 But at the beginning, like my heart felt weird and 51 00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:46.159 I was like, and I think it was just my 52 00:02:46.280 --> 00:02:48.879 mind right, because the way it goes through your nervous system, 53 00:02:49.199 --> 00:02:50.759 and I was like, what would happen if I just 54 00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:52.439 like died here. I'm just gonna die here, And Charlie 55 00:02:52.520 --> 00:02:54.919 was like sleeping above my head. And then it always 56 00:02:54.960 --> 00:02:57.240 wants to teach you something, right, there's always a lesson 57 00:02:57.759 --> 00:03:01.000 whenever you're using psychedelics, especially if if there's at a 58 00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:03.400 time like there's been a time I've told you about 59 00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:06.240 where I'm like, you know and I I'm like, you're not, 60 00:03:06.319 --> 00:03:08.319 it's not that strong. And I went and took more 61 00:03:08.360 --> 00:03:11.360 microdos pills on top of the dose I did, and 62 00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:12.680 then it kicked my ass. 63 00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:14.960 It was like, oh, we're having the death trip. Eh. 64 00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:17.520 Yeah, it was fucking but I've done that before where 65 00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:20.000 you like, it's happened to me before, where you're like, 66 00:03:20.039 --> 00:03:23.000 you get concerned about your body and like the your 67 00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:25.080 health and stuff like that during the trip and then 68 00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:26.800 you come out of it, and I felt great. 69 00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:28.919 You always want to be aware of your body. 70 00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:32.280 Yeah, the plants always want to teach you something and 71 00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:34.560 and like or the fun guy. But like plants to 72 00:03:34.759 --> 00:03:38.439 plant medicine in general, it's there to teach us. 73 00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:40.159 I don't know, some of the plants that we're about 74 00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:42.560 to talk about today don't seem to want to teach anybody. 75 00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:44.560 Oh yeah, they want to kill them. Yeah. 76 00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:47.199 Well maybe that's you know, maybe we're part of the problem. 77 00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:49.680 Maybe human beings are part of the problem. 78 00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:50.879 Duh. 79 00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:54.319 I'm surrounded for all the audiences, I'm surrounded by plant life, 80 00:03:55.719 --> 00:03:59.479 some some live and some dead. This is a real plant. 81 00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:02.000 Else's mom brought this back to life. She had it 82 00:04:02.039 --> 00:04:05.000 like years ago and we and left it with her 83 00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:08.960 mom and it was tiny and it's brought back to life. 84 00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:11.520 It is crazy that things like you can use natural 85 00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:13.759 stuff to like bring the plants back living. 86 00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:16.720 It's cool because that's why they actually can gauge. 87 00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:18.399 If you talk to your plants and you feed them 88 00:04:18.399 --> 00:04:21.079 good energy, that they will survive longer and live longer. 89 00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:24.120 That is like a theory, the Baxter theory. It's I 90 00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:24.879 believe it. 91 00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:25.160 Man. 92 00:04:25.279 --> 00:04:26.839 Energy is drow And that's why I want to get 93 00:04:26.839 --> 00:04:28.680 in this thing. Before we get in this talk, is. 94 00:04:29.480 --> 00:04:32.439 Have you played a plantasia for your plants or are 95 00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:33.000 you a poser? 96 00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:35.560 What the fuck is? Is there a thing called plant Asia? 97 00:04:35.600 --> 00:04:37.759 Are you fucking serious? Oh, I've heard of that. 98 00:04:37.879 --> 00:04:40.079 It's music for plants. Yeah, of course everyone's heard of it. 99 00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:42.279 I feel well, is that a mean good? But it's fun. 100 00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:44.639 I like it. I would check it out, honestly. 101 00:04:44.759 --> 00:04:46.319 It's such a vibe. We were sitting there at my 102 00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:48.279 buddy's house just getting super stone and I was like, 103 00:04:48.399 --> 00:04:51.519 you'll put on Plantasia and it was a good time. 104 00:04:52.680 --> 00:04:55.959 Sounds fucking I've definitely heard of it because all these 105 00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:59.639 like like stuff like Spongle and those weird like psychedelic 106 00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:02.000 kind of musics for just like chilling out and like 107 00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:06.000 listening to the sounds. But I'm sure people have had 108 00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:08.680 this theory before. But I want to mention on an episode, 109 00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:10.680 and this is a good one. Is every time I'm 110 00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:14.680 like tripping and I go outside, there's like a tree outside, right. 111 00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:17.480 And I've known people have said this before, but essentially, 112 00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:21.920 when using psilocybin, instead of people saying how it's connecting 113 00:05:21.959 --> 00:05:24.839 you to outside of this reality and things that exist 114 00:05:24.879 --> 00:05:27.600 outside of our reality, I think that I might lock 115 00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:29.879 you in a little more of plant consciousness. 116 00:05:30.199 --> 00:05:30.319 It. 117 00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:33.759 I one hundred percent believe that when you're on psychedelics, 118 00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:36.439 because I said, this is Chelsea. The fungus is inside 119 00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:39.319 the soil and gives life. It eats dead things and 120 00:05:39.319 --> 00:05:43.079 then gives life to new things essentially, right, So you're 121 00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:45.480 taking in that and you're able to like resonate with 122 00:05:45.519 --> 00:05:48.639 the frequency of the plants. Because there's this tree out 123 00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:53.040 back and every time I'm tripping out, it seems to 124 00:05:53.160 --> 00:05:55.399 like wave at me. I can see it's branches almost 125 00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:58.120 like a hand. It's every time and it waves at 126 00:05:58.160 --> 00:06:00.759 me and like it to me, and I'm in nature. 127 00:06:01.040 --> 00:06:04.839 I feel like the plant life is aware that I'm 128 00:06:04.920 --> 00:06:08.600 on the same kind of conscious level as they are. 129 00:06:09.600 --> 00:06:12.240 I mean, that might just be us projecting shit, but 130 00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:15.120 I have the same thing with animals on acid. See 131 00:06:15.160 --> 00:06:19.519 it's like, I mean, deer, especially if you run into 132 00:06:19.519 --> 00:06:22.120 a deer, they just look at you like, yeah, you're 133 00:06:22.160 --> 00:06:22.680 not a threat. 134 00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:23.879 Yeah. 135 00:06:23.959 --> 00:06:26.959 Well, like I swear to God, dude, Like it feels 136 00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:29.439 like in like, you know, it could be a projection whatever, 137 00:06:29.480 --> 00:06:31.199 but I feel like you can resonate. 138 00:06:31.319 --> 00:06:34.920 People have talked about this. Paul Stammonds talked about this, and. 139 00:06:34.879 --> 00:06:37.240 I've heard about people like tripping like on high high 140 00:06:37.240 --> 00:06:39.759 doses and talking to trees and figure out like how 141 00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:40.720 old the tree. 142 00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:41.720 Is, how long it has existed. 143 00:06:41.720 --> 00:06:44.839 They're all this stuff like and memories of like are 144 00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:48.000 surrounding that tree. That's like, it's crazy because the use 145 00:06:48.040 --> 00:06:50.680 of psychedelicsis mind blowing and a lot of times you've 146 00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:54.040 said it were it's kind of for you when you're 147 00:06:54.079 --> 00:06:54.800 on those trips. 148 00:06:54.959 --> 00:06:55.839 It's for you. 149 00:06:56.360 --> 00:06:59.720 It's absolutely hyper individualized in my opinion. Obviously, I'm by 150 00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:02.160 no mean it's a fucking expert. I'm just a person 151 00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:03.199 who's tripped. 152 00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:03.959 I will. 153 00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:05.160 I will too many times. 154 00:07:05.240 --> 00:07:07.360 Yeah, I will become an expert after this. I will 155 00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:10.759 be There will be one day where I become fungus. 156 00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:12.920 Like you know, it's gonna happen. We're all gonna become fungus. 157 00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:15.519 But the thing is, like we all will. It will 158 00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:17.720 change eventually. One day when I come on the podcast, 159 00:07:17.720 --> 00:07:20.360 I'll have like that that fucking head in uh in 160 00:07:20.399 --> 00:07:21.120 the Last of Us. 161 00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:25.639 Oh my gosh, Okay. 162 00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:26.519 I thought you were speaking, like, you know, metaphorically, like 163 00:07:26.759 --> 00:07:29.480 one day I'll become fungus because I'll be eaten by fungus. 164 00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:31.480 It's like, yeah, we're lucky they don't pump us full 165 00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:32.360 of fucking form aldehyde. 166 00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:34.120 And I don't want that. I want to just like 167 00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:37.720 I told Chelsea, make me a tree. Make me a tree. 168 00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:39.519 You know how expensive that is and how in some 169 00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:42.279 areas that you can't do it. Well, it's very disappointing 170 00:07:42.279 --> 00:07:43.720 to me. It's saying getting composted. 171 00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:46.639 I'm like, yeah, if it's my property, right and and 172 00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:49.240 can I not just be like bury me in the backyard. 173 00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:51.800 That's nope, that's your local laws and ordinances and ship. 174 00:07:51.839 --> 00:07:55.240 You gotta check all your ship because something illegal other places, 175 00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:56.279 it's probably fine. 176 00:07:56.439 --> 00:07:56.920 I'm gonna ask. 177 00:07:56.959 --> 00:07:59.000 I'm gonna go to my community, like if you can 178 00:07:59.040 --> 00:08:02.399 bury people, because there's literally a graveyard, like a fuck. 179 00:08:02.199 --> 00:08:04.759 It's a desertated zoned area. That's the thing is that 180 00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:07.040 you're you're talking about you. I mean, I'm sure there 181 00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:09.519 are places you can get buried like naturally, but I 182 00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:10.800 don't know where they are, and I don't know how 183 00:08:10.839 --> 00:08:13.399 much it would be.

So cryptozoology for the common folk. 187 00:08:25.199 --> 00:08:29.279 Has it made me laugh so hard? Fascinated humankind for 188 00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:34.360 thousands of years maybe hard? Yes, thousands of years, beginning 189 00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:37.879 at the early early as the fifteenth century BCE. While 190 00:08:38.120 --> 00:08:42.720 obviously media has glorized this field, glamorized the field, sorry, 191 00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:49.240 drawing pictures of wild eyed creature hunters chasing anomalous beasts 192 00:08:49.279 --> 00:08:52.960 into the night, Cryptozoology is just the study of the unknown, 193 00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:57.159 you know, the legendary or in like maybe the animals 194 00:08:57.200 --> 00:09:00.799 that are extinct, you know, whose survival are exting maybe 195 00:09:00.960 --> 00:09:02.200 is unknown? 196 00:09:02.639 --> 00:09:05.000 Right, So there's yeah, the animals that are reported to 197 00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:06.960 exist but they don't have any actual evidence of it. 198 00:09:06.960 --> 00:09:09.080 The animals that are reported to be extinct, which are 199 00:09:09.080 --> 00:09:13.039 found out later. So anything that's non traditional zoology, well 200 00:09:13.039 --> 00:09:13.879 like that that correct. 201 00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:15.320 I can't yeah, I can't remember that. 202 00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:20.279 There's that hyena creature that was like drink, oh this 203 00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:23.279 is you would actually really like this. It's a Dylan's 204 00:09:23.480 --> 00:09:27.000 a Gin cocktail. You would like to try it. 205 00:09:27.000 --> 00:09:28.440 I don't fuck with gin no more though. 206 00:09:28.559 --> 00:09:30.080 I love Gin, dude, I. 207 00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:32.120 Saw with my buds. 208 00:09:32.360 --> 00:09:33.799 I love gin. This is okay. 209 00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:36.919 This is tangerine, lemon and a hint of mint like 210 00:09:37.039 --> 00:09:40.799 it's fairly good. And I got another one BlackBerry lemon 211 00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:44.320 and a dash of elderflower, which there is a gin 212 00:09:44.360 --> 00:09:46.360 and I wish I knew the name of it, because 213 00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:48.440 eventually it'd be great to have sponsors one day, considering 214 00:09:48.440 --> 00:09:50.039 how much we've drank on the show over the period 215 00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:54.120 of fucking years. But essentially, it's like, there's this gin. 216 00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:57.279 It has elderflower in it, the best gin I've ever tried. 217 00:09:57.279 --> 00:10:00.000 If someone isn't a Gin fan, this will turn peace 218 00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:01.919 Bullet's fucking delicious. 219 00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:05.879 You know, every Gin fan says that it's literally the 220 00:10:05.919 --> 00:10:07.559 same thing with like any it was like, you have 221 00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:09.919 bother the right strain, you have tried the right whiskey. 222 00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:12.360 You don't even know, but it's like it's like, no, 223 00:10:12.399 --> 00:10:14.960 they probably do. They just like, no, there is people 224 00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:15.440 that like. 225 00:10:15.879 --> 00:10:17.840 It tastes delicious, But I was just gonna send me 226 00:10:17.879 --> 00:10:19.960 over the edge and then I'll fucking drink the whole thing. 227 00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:23.720 Ah, But even the finest whiskey tastes like gasoline and anger. 228 00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:27.279 I I agree, I agree, love whiskey, but but like 229 00:10:27.320 --> 00:10:33.000 some good scotch sipping on that ship, it's like getting Yeah, 230 00:10:33.039 --> 00:10:37.279 but reports of strange organisms don't stop at the animal 231 00:10:37.399 --> 00:10:44.919 variety entering crypto botany, crypto botany, never heard of it 232 00:10:45.159 --> 00:10:47.639 or some of the study of plant kryptis just like 233 00:10:47.919 --> 00:10:50.600 it's animal counterparts. This field of study folks on the 234 00:10:50.639 --> 00:10:55.960 bizarre plants of folklore and legend that have evaded scientific confirmation. 235 00:10:56.600 --> 00:10:57.600 So it's fucking weird. 236 00:10:57.960 --> 00:11:01.600 While there may be it may obviously they may be 237 00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:06.000 cap capped, it on, it may have been capped. I 238 00:11:06.039 --> 00:11:08.759 can't fucking say this word with the mushroom, fucking is 239 00:11:08.759 --> 00:11:12.639 coming in my brain again. But essentially capturing, capturing this 240 00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:16.679 stuff on camera footage, God got that out or blurry 241 00:11:16.720 --> 00:11:19.159 photos essentially as most times how we see it. But 242 00:11:19.240 --> 00:11:22.320 with these elusive plants, it's they you can't. It's hard 243 00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:25.960 to catch these things, so to speak. You know, you 244 00:11:25.960 --> 00:11:31.159 don't see like this plant like walking off. Yeah, it's 245 00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:34.200 fucking it's strange. Let's just get into the first one. 246 00:11:34.639 --> 00:11:38.480 The devil shnare. Snare, the devil snare. It's deadly but fun, 247 00:11:38.960 --> 00:11:42.759 but it will suck in the sun. While many while 248 00:11:42.799 --> 00:11:46.320 many other associate devil snares with many of those trials. 249 00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:51.799 Obviously this is regarding the Harry Potter films because this 250 00:11:51.879 --> 00:11:53.080 is literally the same. 251 00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:54.919 Thing devil snare. Yeah, when when I was. 252 00:11:54.879 --> 00:11:59.519 In the Philosopher's Stone, it's a terrifying Yeah, yeah, it's 253 00:11:59.519 --> 00:12:03.159 a terrified plant has actually a longer and frightening more history, 254 00:12:03.639 --> 00:12:08.240 uh more frightening history than children's fantasies can cove convey. 255 00:12:08.600 --> 00:12:10.120 So that's pretty interesting. 256 00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:11.360 That. 257 00:12:11.600 --> 00:12:15.120 Like obviously, one witnessed report claimed to have encountered this 258 00:12:15.240 --> 00:12:20.320 deadly plant near Lake Nicaragua after hearing sounds of pain 259 00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:23.759 and terror from his dog. When he found the source, 260 00:12:23.799 --> 00:12:26.440 he discovered that the dog was entangled by a network 261 00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:31.320 of roots and fibers, fibers covered in thick adhesive gum. 262 00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:34.919 As the eye Winds struggled to cut his dog free, 263 00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:39.559 the plant actually fought back, wrapping its vines around his hands, 264 00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:42.240 leaving his flesh red and blistered. 265 00:12:43.559 --> 00:12:46.480 Isn't that frightening? Oh? Man? 266 00:12:47.639 --> 00:12:49.679 Like even if you just you stumble into this thing 267 00:12:49.720 --> 00:12:52.200 thinking nothing of it, like that's true, A bunch of 268 00:12:52.240 --> 00:13:01.039 roots whatever, it's crazy kind of like this. Oh no, 269 00:13:01.039 --> 00:13:04.639 I don't know that Audrey too. Is is Devil's scenarios 270 00:13:04.639 --> 00:13:09.279 the tentacles themselves, But I mean there's other killer plants 271 00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:12.360 that also technically have so like the. 272 00:13:12.360 --> 00:13:15.279 Idea of like this, something like a plant could essentially 273 00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:18.759 it protect itself right, That does happen in nature and 274 00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:21.559 actually attack back if it's being threatened to its food 275 00:13:21.600 --> 00:13:23.039 sources actually being cut off. 276 00:13:23.480 --> 00:13:26.159 Most plants have some method of protecting themselves. Either the 277 00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:29.080 leaves are too spiny for you know, large animals to eat, 278 00:13:29.440 --> 00:13:32.240 or the you know, the berries are poisonous, or they 279 00:13:32.320 --> 00:13:36.440 have like the intoxicating or hallucination or hallucinatory. 280 00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:38.159 Effect that is fucking frightening. 281 00:13:38.200 --> 00:13:41.639 Though so thankfully he managed to pull free his pup, 282 00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:45.519 although it was wounded with strange suction marks where the 283 00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:48.440 vines had made contact with the skin. After this ordeal, 284 00:13:48.799 --> 00:13:51.200 he asked locals about the plant and learned it was 285 00:13:51.240 --> 00:13:53.879 a well known and feared was well known in fear 286 00:13:53.919 --> 00:13:57.360 by the community. Another report from Africa in eighteen fifty 287 00:13:57.399 --> 00:14:01.639 two dubbed a similar plant the Vegetables, describing it as 288 00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:05.960 a spotted serpent that drags itself along the ground with 289 00:14:06.080 --> 00:14:10.360 sticky flowers on its head and a white and soft flesh. 290 00:14:11.200 --> 00:14:14.080 And then it also is fucking weird. It's filled with 291 00:14:14.200 --> 00:14:17.159 yellow morrow. I don't know what that is. Marrow, marrow 292 00:14:17.240 --> 00:14:17.759 oh weird. 293 00:14:18.360 --> 00:14:21.679 So that's when I was actually referencing when I said 294 00:14:21.679 --> 00:14:24.240 some of them have animalistic properties, because this one basically 295 00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:28.600 is just like a snake, independent root. It's just chilling along, 296 00:14:28.799 --> 00:14:31.559 and it doesn't have bones, it has cartilage. They're full 297 00:14:31.559 --> 00:14:34.600 of yellow marrow, and the apparently the the natives love 298 00:14:34.720 --> 00:14:35.159 to eat it. 299 00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:36.360 That creeps me out. 300 00:14:36.480 --> 00:14:39.399 That creeps me out, like, just I'm not I'm not 301 00:14:39.519 --> 00:14:42.639 frightened by snakes. I've caught used, I used to catch 302 00:14:42.639 --> 00:14:44.399 snakes all times I was a kid. But the idea 303 00:14:44.440 --> 00:14:47.240 of like some plant thing that has like has leaves 304 00:14:47.279 --> 00:14:48.679 on it and stuff like that, like some of these 305 00:14:48.720 --> 00:14:52.759 animals that make themselves look like nature and then attat 306 00:14:53.000 --> 00:14:54.399 is fucking kind of skill. 307 00:14:54.480 --> 00:14:57.080 Here's here's what I was thinking earlier with that, How 308 00:14:57.120 --> 00:14:59.039 do you disrupt the nervous system? How do you kill 309 00:14:59.080 --> 00:14:59.679 that immediately? 310 00:14:59.720 --> 00:15:02.000 To like the fungus, you gotta go for the fungus. 311 00:15:02.799 --> 00:15:04.799 Is that the fungus though, is the flower the central 312 00:15:04.799 --> 00:15:05.559 nervous system for that? 313 00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:07.960 Imagine that the brain is that the No imagine if 314 00:15:07.960 --> 00:15:11.360 a fucking fungus got so smart, like like artificial intelligence smart, 315 00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:12.600 because it already kind of is. 316 00:15:12.960 --> 00:15:14.879 And then I I don't know. I feel like fungus 317 00:15:14.960 --> 00:15:18.480 might actually be like I think it's smarter than intelligence 318 00:15:18.480 --> 00:15:19.039 on the planet. 319 00:15:19.159 --> 00:15:22.279 I think that it's the intelligence can't be can't be 320 00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:26.919 gauged at the our scope of what intelligence is as humans. 321 00:15:27.320 --> 00:15:30.000 But that thing is like fungus is crazy. The ship's 322 00:15:30.039 --> 00:15:33.120 like it's wild in general, which I'm gonna maybe one 323 00:15:33.159 --> 00:15:35.759 day look for fungus cryptids.
