The land, water and air around us are chock-full of DNA fragments from fungi that mycologists can’t link to known organisms. These slippery beings are so widespread scientists are calling them “dark fungi.” It’s a comparison to the equally elusive dark matter and dark energy that permeates the universe.
Look, if you people have a better “fungi are goths” joke, you tell it.
Because I’m proud of mine, damn it!
It made me grin. And then get defensive: am I listening to too much Bauhaus? When is too much?
Though I actually listen to them rarely. They’re just imprinted on my mind. Probably play their songs on guitar & bass more than listen to them.
Next time they’re touring…
Too much is when you become a mysterious dark fungus.
I’ve no problem with that, either.
