Found this on a tree in our back yard. We couldn't figure out if it was organic or not, but we looked online and thought maybe it was some kind of purple fuzzy fungi in an early stage? Any ideas? Kansas, U.S

ID help?

I was scrolling through my photos and found a forgotten friend I meant to ID. This was growing on the wood in our raised garden. Does anyone know what it is?

🤮i'm gonna be sick.

my oyster mushroom kit got contaminated, and the oyster mushrooms that grew out of there dried up a bit by now. (i don't want to harvest from a contaminated kit). those mushrooms dropped a weird powder, sort of like finely ground wood. i took a closer look and there were things alive and moving in among it! little see through tiny worms! no i'm not going back in my garage to take a photo. my skin crawls just thinking about it. what is that stuff?! decomposed mushroom?! at least my other kit is fine, and i managed to buy them dirt cheap. what happened was i forgot to sterilize the blade i used to cut open the first one. i noticed white and green mold in it. i have many regrets... take it from me. STERILIZE YOUR EQUIPMENT. don't do what i did with my first kit. also make sure to actually harvest when the mushrooms are ready and fresh.

Found this container in the back of the fridge. Anyone help me identify this?

I believe it was a very old piece of halloumi maybe 3-4 months ago.

Pretty bracket fungi in the Bunya Mountains (Australia)

Does anyone know what this is?

I keep having random fungi looking pieces literally just appear. They aren’t growing there, it’s a piece of it on a table or floor, today was the sink that I literally just washed. They morph if I move them to throw them out, tonight I took the piece that I found and did a video of them changing shapes and appear to expel a hot gas because it starts to have heatwaves coming from it and some type of smoke like substance that’s more clear than a smoke but I don’t know how to describe it. Here’s the pic of the one piece that split into two the second before I picked it up. I’m guessing it’s a fungus but not sure what fungus ends up around places lol they are around the size of a pea. One day I took off my jacket and on my sweater sleeve I had two shards of it that looked like toe nail pieces off of a fungal infected big toe nail. When I tried to take it off it started spitting mini pieces (wtf) I had to actually make the videos I made to prove to myself I’m not crazy lol So it’s legit

Title says it. What the hell is this? Not sure where else to ask 😂

Just pulled a cabinet to make room for a new fridge in my utility room and found this growing from the baseboard! Can anybody identify this?
