Have you heard my 'fungus brain' theory??
Humans (and other animals) are fungus (brains) which grew legs and started walking around.

We're mushrooms that grew legs and started walking.

This was discussed in another thread? I know we're more related to fungi than plants. I really don't think mushrooms just spontaneously grew legs, though, but I think it's something like this: algae > fungi > lichens > sponges > water-based-unicellular-life > water-based-organelle-creatures > other weird water stuff > fishies > humanes
The taxonomy is so vast that it's hard to get it down correctly with just a few surveying internet searches, but I know that land-based life came out of the ocean. This seems pretty on point:

Sponges look a lot like brains, too. Flagellates are found in algae, and some flagellates also look like brains:

Just to share, diatoms (an algae/protist) look simultaneously cool and creepy as hell:

People eat diatomaceous earth (fossilized diatoms) to help with arthritis. I find them so creepy because they're as sharp as diamonds when fossilized, and are ultra-microscopic. I was going to use them in gardening, but then decided not to out of fear, so I have a huge bag of them in my garage that I need to throw away. I have heard that mucus membranes will break them down, and that's why they aren't at all dangerous, but I pretty much hate them anyways.
Have you heard that mushroom spores can exist in space? They are the hardest organic material in nature, and they are purplish-black, so they reflect ultra-violet light. Perhaps mushrooms came to earth and jump-started our evolutionary path.

That's the kind of "alien intervention" that resulted in human life, if there was any alien intervention... space spores.
A lot of people think that humans came from the sea... I like hearing intelligent folks discussing their thoughts about this. So I appreciate your post. They say essentially we evolved to a point that we were able to stay out of the water for longer and longer, and that we have hair because we started eating furry creatures which lived near the shore. "You are what you eat" apparently.
Sounds feasible to me. I've always had an unreasonable draw toward fish...

A passion for fish.
I still think the brain is a shroom. It looks like one. Algae doesn't strike me as being a component of the brain.

They call it Mother Ocean.
How much ocean is left is supposedly an indicator of how long life on the planet will persist.
It sounds obvious...
But the volume and conditions of the water make or break life.

"But the volume and conditions of the water make or break life."
so true , i have a large reef tank and the fish and corals are super sensitive to any changes
i once forgot to treat with Prime(a product that gets rid of chlorine/chlorimates) the chlorinated water i was transferring a butterfly fish into , it basically had a seizure and was dead in 30 seconds ...an agonizing death ... also , too much heat in the summer months and many corals begin to die , salt content must be in a narrow band called 'reef zone' , then there are all the ammonia, nitrates, nitrites, phosphates that must be kept near zero levels . Delicate and amazing ecosystem our ocean is .

Hopefully intelligent folks start discussing it with you lol
Fish are wild. Breeding for consumption is gross because they become more susceptible to parasites in massive artificial conditions. Fishing on the west coast is also sketchy because of Fukushima radiation. I know Koi breeding is lucrative enough. Something I hope I get to try at least once in life is aquaponics, which utilizes fish poop as the fertilizer. They live in a large tank under your grow, and it looks pretty cool. Pretty sure that's the only way to go truly organic with a water based grow unless you're developing your own fertilizers.
& Yeah, I think we're more similar to fungi than algae on a material level anyway. Evolution is convoluted, and people make a lot of suppositions.

Also, vaginas have fungal properties since they contain yeast. I wonder if there is any amount of fungi in the brain.

Maybe the brain used to be a true fungus, then turned into a vagina so it could catch some dick.
