heyyy it’s the wood chip fermentation bath chapter! from my friend’s tumblr reblogs! another paragraph that’s like.. unexpectedly sensual amidst all the infodumping about hard science. merlin sheldrake is the most charismatic person to ever infodump about their special interest in mushrooms and i need to know what romance/erotica this guy’s secretly writing in his spare time
