  • Hypomyces are look more like molds growing on mushrooms than mushrooms growing on mushrooms. There are mushrooms that grow on other mushrooms like Squamantina or Claudopus parasiticus but they’re all pretty specialized to only grow on certain genera of mushrooms and I’m not aware of any that parasitic mushrooms that can grow on parasitic genera. I’m just a hobbyist though and I’ve only really studied mushrooms that grow in the Pacific Northwest so perhaps it exists somewhere.

    The only potential double-parasitism I can think of is that peppery boletes (Chalciporus piperatus), which are hypothesized to be parasitic on Amanita Muscaria’s mycelium because of how frequently they’re found together, could be infected with Bolete mold (Hypomyces chysospermus/microspermus).



  • I think my problem may have been that I scheduled chores based on how frequently I thought they “ought to be” done rather than how often my ADHD partner and ADHD self were realistically capable of. It led to a spiral of always being behind which led to us not checking the app or checking stuff off when we did it.

    The “time to do chores” daily reminder was completely unhelpful because I would always either ignore it because I wasn’t feeling up to cleaning or ignore it because I was already cleaning.

    We’ll probably give the app another go one of these days with a more relaxed schedule, hope you have better luck with it.
