- No spam.
- Infographics welcome, get schooled.
If you are here asking: "Is this a science meme?"
Probably, yes. We use the Dawkins definition of meme: a replicating idea, not just an image macro with a fact on it. A good post here doesn't need to teach you something. It needs to make you ask something: who, what, where, when, and especially why or how.
Science isn't a filing cabinet of facts, it's a conversation. For example, a photo of an eel or other localized wildlife counts because most people never see one, and wonder is the first step of inquiry. A car meme counts if it makes you curious about what's under the bonnet. If you want to talk about something you noticed in the world, chances are someone else wants to talk about it too.
We moderate for vibe, not category. Pruning is light, especially where a post creates interesting discussion. Experimenting is encouraged.
See the pinned paper on Shitposting as Public Pedagogy if you want the academic case for why this works.

.....is bread mold harmful to eat?
EDIT: Still have not gotten a wholly confirmed answer lol
I dunno. I miss him, though.. and his pony pal Pokey, too.
Apparently, it's being rebooted as a cartoon.
Not even a 3d one? People have already mimicked stop motion in cgi.
For a costume event, I got a Gumby outfit and put a gladiator shirt over it. I don't think anybody got it.
If you keep eating it, you'll have to change your name to ShartEatingBreakfast
Does it make your guts rumble, fr??
I've heard of people eating bread that had mold on it but not knowing it because the only visible mold was on the other side of the loaf, they had eaten it for a few days and had the shits
Bread mold is not one universal thing, while certain molds may be more common, without doing involved identification you will not be able to determine the species and therefore safety of bread mold. Even if the majority of the time it is a safe species, you should not be knowingly risking it.
It's as harmful as picking up a random bug and eating it.
Which means: you might die. Or you might not.
Trusting the internet to give you the answer here as the final defacto answer... Maybe not the best.
Sorry, my plethora of mycologist friends are non-existent.
I go to Lemmy to get crowd-sourced information from people's personal experiences. From the looks of it, people are saying "yeah maybe don't do that. Risky." I'll believe them! Amd the reasoning behind them seems sound, as well.
Better than asking bots on F×cebook or whatnot.
SEB is a 32 year old woman, presenting to the emergency room...
Listen: I've never gotten sick from eating slightly moldy bread. Ever.
Scallions, however, sent me to the emergency room shitting blood (turns out it was an allergy or intolerance or some nonsense).
I ain't one of those "Taco Bell gives me explosive diarrhea" nerds. That's weak. 😤
