TREES, PEOPLE, AND PLANET: Paul Stamets started Fungi Perfecti® with the goal of building the bridge between people and fungi. Since its inception in 1980, Fungi Perfecti has become synonymous with cutting-edge mycological research and solutions. Its continued mission is to explore, study, preserve, and spread knowledge about the use of fungi for helping people and planet.
What is MYCELIUM? One of the most significant outcomes of research has been discovering the value of mushroom mycelium, the metabolically active and longest living structure of the mushroom (fungal) organism. It contains numerous novel compounds shown to benefit human health. Years of industry-based research, along with both internal and third-party testing, demonstrate that mycelium-based supplements offer significant immunological support.* More
Commonly referred to simply as Glastonbury Festival and known colloquially as "Glasto," this five-day festival of performing arts is held near Pilton, Somerset, England, most summers. It is the biggest open-air festival in the world.
Will you behave this year, Boys? And don't cuss.
In addition to contemporary music, the festival hosts dance, comedy, theatre, circus, cabaret, and other arts. Leading pop and rock artists have headlined, alongside thousands of others appearing on smaller stages and performance areas.
Kneecap rocks Glasto
Films and albums have been recorded at the festival, and it receives extensive TV and newspaper coverage. Glastonbury takes place on 1,500 acres of farmland [3] and is attended by about 200,000 people [4], with extensive security, transportation, water, and electricity-supply infrastructure (stuff built on the ground).
We need to heal stoned in a circle, a stone circle
While the number of attendees is sometimes swollen by gatecrashers, a record of 300,000 people was set at the 1994 festival, headlined by the Levellers, who performed on the Pyramid Stage [5].
Most festival staff are unpaid volunteers, helping the festival to raise millions of pounds for charity organizations [6].
Regarded as a major event in contemporary British culture, the festival is inspired by the ethos of the hippie, the counterculture of the 1960s, and the free festival movement. [It's the British version of Woodstock.]
Vestiges of these traditions are retained in the Green Fields area, which includes sections known as the Green Futures, the Stone Circle, and Healing Field [7].
Michael Eavis hosted the first one, then called the Pilton Festival, after seeing an open-air Led Zeppelin concert in 1970 at the Bath Festival of Blues and Progressive Music. More: Glastonbury Festival

Isle of Wight Music Festival comes alive
Rare photos of the 1969 Isle of Wight Festival brought to life [with AI]
(Fusion Kidd) June 16, 2025: As Glastonbury 2025 opens, what is the history of other open-air festivals akin to Woodstock? Here are some rare photos of the 1969 Isle of Wight Festival, but in this case they are colorized and brought to life with animated motion (1968–1970). How the ChatGPT or AI modeling is able to project what happened after these photographs were taken is the mystery of something going into AI's black box and something else coming out with no one able to explain what happened in between.
Naomi Klein on Trump, Elon Musk, Far Right, and "End Times Fascism"
There's no underworld below us.
(Democracy Now!) May 5, 2025: An alliance between the far right and Silicon Valley oligarchs has given rise to a form of "end times fascism," says journalist Prof. Naomi Klein.
She details in a recent essay she co-authored with Astra Taylor on how many wealthy elites are preparing for the end of the world even as they contribute to growing inequality, climate crisis, and political instability.
Klein says that while billionaires dream of escaping to bunkered enclaves or even to space, Pres. DJ Trump and other right-wing leaders are turning their countries into militarized fortress states to keep out immigrants from abroad and ramp up authoritarian control domestically.
Los Angeles and Pasadena had massive turnouts for Hands Off! April 5th peaceful demonstrations and protests, with many clever signs and a great show of solidarity. That is only two of over 1,000 simultaneous actions across the country and other parts of the world. Trump is launching a trade war, and no one is happy about it.
Demonstrators have gathered in cities around the US in recent days and weeks to participate in "Tesla Takedown" protests of varying sizes.
Hands Off! our government and veterans' benefits, Trump and Musk
Meanwhile, some Tesla owners have said they have faced insults or vandalism amid the Musk criticism. Participants of the protests have called for a boycott of the EV giant in response to Musk's involvement with the Trump administration and DOGE's efforts to decrease the size of the federal workforce.
The "Tesla Takedown" effort started on BlueSky, a competitor to Musk's X platform, and now has a dedicated website. The site calls for Tesla owners to sell their vehicles and stock in an effort to "stop Musk now."
The website's organizer (teslatakedown.com), "Bill & Ted" actor and filmmaker Alex Winter, wrote in a Rolling Stone op-ed that demonstrations have happened at over 100 Tesla showrooms and other locations. Tesla owner and shareholder David Abrams told Business Insider he's heard about multiple protests but wasn't aware of the "takedown" effort specifically. More

(History Drops) There were humans here at least 130,000 years ago. Did civilization begin in the Americas thousands of years before Sumer, which was only 6,000 years ago? Graham Hancock presents America Before: The Key to Earth's Lost Civilization, Part 3 of 3, in Graham's hometown, Bath, England, in 2019. Here he presents highlights from his famous 2019 bestselling book, America Before was a New York Times Top 10 nonfiction bestseller. #grahamhancock #science #history #geology
America Before: The Key to Earth's Lost Civilization
(Audible Logo) Graham Hancock is the author and narrator in this Macmillan Audio. It has 4.7 out of 5 stars with 3,884 ratings. Was an advanced civilization lost to history in the global cataclysm that ended the last Ice Age?
Graham Hancock, the internationally best-selling author, has made it his life's work to find out. In America Before, he draws on the latest archeological and DNA evidence to bring his quest to a stunning culmination.
We’ve been taught that North and South America were empty of humans until around 13,000 years ago -- among the last great landmasses on earth to have been settled by our ancestors (the Clovis people).
But new discoveries have radically reshaped this long-established [and gatekeepers at the university enforced] picture, and we now know that the Americas were first peopled more than 130,000 years ago -- many tens of thousands of years before human settlements became established elsewhere.
Hancock's research takes us on a series of journeys and encounters with the daring scientists [who dared to defy the gatekeepers and status quo] responsible for the recent extraordinary breakthroughs.
In the process, from the Mississippi Valley to the Amazon Rainforest, he reveals that ancient "New World" cultures share a legacy of advanced scientific knowledge [likely gifted to them by the Star People] and sophisticated spiritual beliefs with supposedly unconnected "Old World" cultures.
Have archeologists focused for too long only on the "Old World" in their search for the origins of civilization while failing to consider the revolutionary possibility that those origins might in fact be found in the "New World"?
America Before is the culmination of everything that millions of people have loved in his body of work over the past decades, namely a mind-dilating exploration of the mysteries of the past, amazing archeological discoveries, and profound implications for how we lead our lives today. More

Ancient tablets from Sumer speak of a vessel that survived a worldwide flood helmed by Ziusudra (Eridu Genesis). We call it Noah’s Ark, a history appropriated by Hebrews from older sources.
A much older Cuneiform tablet dating to 1646-1626 B.C., about 1,000 years before the Bible's Book of Genesis (In the beginning") is believed to have been written and known as the Epic of Atra-Hasis describing a great flood was discovered in 1898. J. P. Morgan acquired it and today it is in the Morgan Library & Museum.
It has been found, and here is the evidence, including photographs. Visit it without any need to climb a glacier to get to it. It sits in Turkey, 17 miles from Mt. Ararat at an elevation of 6,000-feet. It
is man-made,
was designed as a boat,
incorporates principles of advanced hydrodynamics,
has decks and interior chambers,
is the proper dimension,
is in the right geographical location,
is accompanied by large anchor stones,
has been visited by religious pilgrims for thousands of years,
is consistent with the Bible, the Koran, the Torah, and the ancient tablets from Sumer, and
is surrounded by mountains and villages with names from antiquity relating to the ark’s landing.
This documentary was written and narrated by G. Edward Griffin in 1993 and features expert testimony by David Fasold, Donald Patten, Sam Windsor, and Marvin Luckerman. DVD source: Reality Zone (realityzone.com + VIDEO).
(Discoverize) [So it is true that the Grand Canyon in the American Southwest was a settlement of the ancient Egyptians or some cross-cultural mishmash of Buddhist, Hindu, and Egyptian artifacts in the massive cave systems we are as American citizens forbidden to enter! The mysterious Kincaid was right, reporting his findings in the Arizona Gazette only to have himself disappeared and the Smithsonian scrubbed of the physical evidence and then any knowledge of his existence. What are the powers-that-be hiding?]
The Forbidden History Revealed is a DVD produced by Steve Quayle's GenSix Productions on American history that is kept out of textbooks. Episode 1, The Egyptian Presence in the Americas and the Pacific Rim. The Great Smithsonian Cover-Up focuses on the strange mystery of why modern names for features of the Grand Canyon are Egyptian.
Buddhist and Egyptian artifacts
The mystery was solved by Kincaid, who while working for Smithsonian system, explored a cave system and documented his findings in both a report to his employers and the Arizona Gazette. The Smithsonian buried the information, just as they cover up all anomalies and physical evidence of giants. But the paper did not retract his story. It is still possible to read firsthand accounts of his incredible discoveries. This information aligns with the 1885 research of American Edward Payson Vining in An Inglorious Columbus...
For the first time in history, there is a firsthand eyewitness account of the fact that Egyptian artifacts and giant skeletons were taken from the Grand Canyon and stored in a secret Smithsonian warehouse. Why are all the landforms in the Grand Canyon named for Egyptian deities? Why is the DNA of giant mummies and giant skeletons being extracted by the militaries of the world? Was a live 21-foot giant captured in 1877 with the most unusual features ever noted? Will the DNA of ancient giants be used to make super-soldiers?
Welcome to the Discoverize channel, where we dive into the most exciting and unbelievable things that the world has to offer.

Debunking the science explanation for the cause of the Aurora borealis, which was already brought into question when seen on the wrong side of the globe planet (since the excuse of an explanation for such northern lights is that the sun above us (Surya, Sol) is shooting plasma (cluster of high energy particles) that hits the Arctic Circle above the magnetic North Pole.
Plasma wouldn't skip the center and somehow back up to hit the Antarctic above a South Pole.
When other models of the world we live in are looked at -- ancient Buddhist cosmology, which aligns more or less with Hindu and Jain views and is not so different from Christian (biblical), Norse, Jewish, and Muslim views, all of which controvert science. We hope science is true, we hope the other views are "creation myths" and "origin story storytelling."
High above Los Angeles on Mt. Wilson
But Zetetic science -- the testable, demonstrable, reproducible results, ground up, just the observable facts not theory chasing -- says otherwise.
Now, tonight, people everywhere can see that we have been deceived by NASA ("never a straight answer") and other allied agencies not daring to contradict what the world power says.

Northern lights LIVE: Auroras illuminate night sky in Canada, USA | Solar Storm News
(CNBC-TV) Started streaming 5/12/24: CANADA. There are northern lights over Minnesota as a strong solar storm is hitting Earth, producing them in many areas across the USA.
A series of solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) have created dazzling auroras that may be seen as far south as Alabama and Northern California but could also disrupt communications on Earth tonight and over the weekend.
Scientists are warning an increase in solar flares and coronal mass ejections from the sun have the potential to disrupt communication on Earth into the weekend.
Solar flares can affect communications and GPS almost immediately because they disrupt Earth’s ionosphere, part of the upper atmosphere.
Energetic particles released by the sun can also disrupt electronics on spacecraft and affect astronauts without proper protection within 20 minutes to several hours.
An unusually strong solar storm hitting Earth could produce northern lights in the U.S. this weekend and potentially disrupt power and communications. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) issued a rare severe geomagnetic storm warning when a solar outburst reached Earth on Friday afternoon, hours sooner than anticipated.
The effects were due to last through the weekend and possibly into next week. The storm could produce northern lights as far south in the U.S. as Alabama and Northern California, according to NOAA.
But it was hard to predict, and experts stressed it would not be the dramatic curtains of color normally associated with the northern lights, but more like splashes of greenish hues.
