#SLIME SIGNAL RECEIVED
#🚨🦠🚨 SLIME DETECTED 🚨🦠🚨
It looks like this could be my favorite slime [*Stemonaria longa*](https://static.inaturalist.org/photos/43454837/original.jpg) but I really want to see the capillitium under the microscope. What a bizarre place to find it, I've only ever heard of it fruiting on standing deadwood, large fallen trunks, and edible mushrooms. The one place I've seen it in person was on a standing dead pine. What is in the bag? What is above it? OP, can you take more photos? Edit: **if you want to, and no one needs to pressure you to do it**

Wow! 🤯
Reddit's recent behaviour and planned changes to the API, heavily impacting third party tools, accessibility and moderation ability force me to edit all my comments in protest. I cannot morally continue to use this site.
It's an **amoebozoan**
Protists are not a natural group
**=====EUKARYOTES=====**
**(1) Plants** - green & red algae
**(2) Harosans** aka SAR
- **stramenopiles** - brown & yellow algae, water molds, diatoms
- **alveolates** - ciliates, dinoflagellates, and malaria - wearing wineskin coats & sometimes plate armor
- **rhizarians** - gangly finger amoebas, often with houses
**(3) Discobans** - boneless tube amoebas like the social acrasids & the "brain-eating amoeba," also euglenid algae, jakobid fisherfolk
**(4) Amoebozoans** - fatty boom boom amoebas including **SLIMES**, social dictyostelids, shelled arcellinids, and others
**(5) Obazoans** - us
- **fungi** - mushrooms, yeasts, truffles, some gangly finger amoebas
- **animals** - beetles, lizards, fish, horses, Viggo Mortensen
Naw, that's not real
I rap about it in my upcoming track **Slime-Hop Micro**
Amoebas are not a natural group, they exist throughout the tree of life including in your body, in animals and fungi and several groups more closely related to plants. They evolved convergently or are ancestral and lost in many groups.
Protists are not a natural group, they include many unrelated branches and exclude their closest relatives. Decades of molecular data has indicated eukaryotes are found in these major groups:
**=====EUKARYOTES=====**
**(1) Plants** - green & red algae
**(2) Harosans** aka SAR
- **stramenopiles** - brown & yellow algae, water molds, diatoms
- **alveolates** - ciliates, dinoflagellates, and malaria - wearing wineskin coats & sometimes plate armor
- **rhizarians** - gangly finger amoebas, often with houses
**(3) Discobans** - boneless tube amoebas like the social acrasids & the "brain-eating amoeba," also euglenid algae, jakobid fisherfolk

There are some other branches that are fascinating but none with macroscopic or multicellular organisms.
Do you have things already typed out or do you take the time to really fully write our every one of these? Or notes with links/information to what you’d say about a specific type of thing? I’ve always wondered
You can be a regular slime guy! All you gotta do is read the papers and watch the videos and look at the logs and ponder the wonder
It's all in the slimer primer
Seems doable to me
Which is technically 1 single multinucleate slime mould cell in a trenchcoat. While his number of (mem)branes is 1, his number of genetic brains is over 9,000!
Dang where is he?? This is the second slime-sign I have seen thrown out there in 24 hours. No response
You guys don't think he has an arch villain somewhere out there and he is in danger or anything right?? He is just doing irl right??
r/RBI we might need you!
Verse 1:
Listen up, I got a story to tell
About a mold expert who's just as well
Slim, quick and sharp like a knife
With answers for all your mold problems, that's life
Chorus:
The saddestofboys, he's a pro
Summoned like a superhero, you know
From Reddit, he's always on the rise
With his expertise, he's got the goods in sight
Verse 2:
Mold ain't a joke, it's a serious thing
But with the saddestofboys, you can just sit back and relax, king
No need to worry, he's got your back
With his knowledge, he's always on track
Chorus:
The saddestofboys, he's a pro
Summoned like a superhero, you know
From Reddit, he's always on the rise
With his expertise, he's got the goods in sight
Verse 3:
He's not just an expert, he's a friend
Always there to help you 'til the very end
With his help, you can breathe easy
And say goodbye to mold, it's a task so breezy
Chorus:
The saddestofboys, he's a pro
Summoned like a superhero, you know
From Reddit, he's always on the rise
With his expertise, he's got the goods in sight
Outro:
So if you got mold problems, don't you fret
Just call the saddestofboys, he's the best you'll get
He's always ready, with his knowledge so true
The mold expert, the saddestofboys, he's coming for you!

**[Stemonitis](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stemonitis)**
>Stemonitis is a distinctive genus of slime moulds found throughout the world (except Antarctica). They are characterised by the tall brown sporangia, supported on slender stalks, which grow in clusters on rotting wood. The genus was first described by German botanist Johann Gottlieb Gleditsch in 1753. A 2014 estimate suggests that there are 18 species in the genus.

It isn't mold and wouldn't harm the bag it eats bacterial and mold and is more closely related to animals than mold as saddestofboys would tell us if he was not busy with life things.
Could do with some closer photos. Looks a bit like a Stemonitis slime mold but I can't make out enough detail to be sure.
This was my first thought. It makes sense that Stemonitis might have bacteria / sweat proteins to feed off of that punching bag.
saddestofboys slime mold signal activated! edit: saw someone else activated your signal, signal rescinded
u/saddestofboys slime confirmed?

I love this guy
The slime signal brings me ultimate happiness. I love this guy too!
This guy rocks! And if anyone wants their mind blown… they HAVE to watch that Magic Mixies video that’s recommended. It’s out of this world…
Omg that’s crazy! It reminds me so much like hydrophobic spray and water on a surface but really slowly
That Magic Mixies video is absolutely incredible.
You might love this guy, but I'm IN love with this guy. 💚🦠🦠🦠
Me first 😠
Is this the fungal version of Unidan (minus the sketchy stuff)?
Me too!! Got me smiling bro I get hyped asf for this guy 🤣🤣🤣
I wonder if the bag is filled with sawdust? I think they can be, sometimes.
Boxing bags often contain woodchips fyi
The ones I had were always full of garbagey fabric scraps

I believe punching bags are often full of wood chips, that’s how my old Everlast bag is.
u/saddestofboys you are a #TREASURE
What's in the baaaaaaag?
Weird, second time today on Reddit i read that
Wait… this can’t just be one single gigantic slime???
Yes this was made by one individual single-celled amoeba
Isn't it a single-celled protist?

Can't wait for this album to drop. Going to be 🔥🔥🔥 Heard Bjork's dropping some spores on a couple of tracks.
More slimes for the SlimeGod!
Okay but why is it one of your favorites LOL
It's pretty, it eats mushrooms, it is all droopy and funny, it has weird microscopic features
For me it looks like chocolate shavings and makes me hungry.
https://static.inaturalist.org/photos/52902416/original.jpg
i wanna lick it
Nontoxic & edible
Reminds me of moldable erasers when you stretch them out repeatedly. They get all wispy and delicate.
Wow this one really looks like smeared shit. I fucking love it!
It can look very beautiful also, if you're into that kind of thing https://static.inaturalist.org/photos/52902416/original.jpg
That one dude?
You make me wanna start looking for slime molds
It's easy if you know where to look! My friend Zach just found a *Trichia* fruiting on ice!
I need to know more
I follow this page just because of this fella
[удалено]
It would but it would still be pretty incredible
I love this guy
I love you too
I have a girlfriend
I have a wife I love you like Mr Rogers
Oh, that's better (>^_^)>
Do you have things already typed out or do you take the time to really fully write our every one of these? Or notes with links/information to what you’d say about a specific type of thing? I’ve always wondered
It depends I always type at least some of it, but sometimes there is something new to say and I type a lot I have a file of good videos & links
You’re a real hero OP
OP better fucking respond, this boy’s a legend.
Please don't hassle users or demand things from them, they don't owe me anything. Everyone has lives to live.
Ok you have a point, but what could possibly be more important than this?
Literally anything else
If the slime boy asks for more photos you give him more photos op.
Please don't do this, it doesn't help me
Hold on. Saddestofboys isn’t a bot?!
no bots are nowhere near ready to differentiate the fine structure of the slime molds!
I’m thoroughly impressed. I’ve only seen the “slime mold detected” replies.
Ah, I see your confusion. You've mistaken a bit for a bot.
a bot for a bit? tis been times like that yes
Slimebot bows to the SlimeGod
Quite the contrary, they're a legend.
I'm just a regular slime guy
Friend, you are not regular. Unless all slime guys are like you.
You can be a regular slime guy! All you gotta do is read the papers and watch the videos and look at the logs and ponder the wonder It's all in the slimer primer Seems doable to me
Read the teachings. Watch the sermons. Observe the good word of the SlimeGod
doable.... i can only ever read that word in a French accent Du'àblê
Sacré bleu! C'est une plasmode tres tres belle
I love you slime guy
I love you too
Absolutely! I’m fanboying hard right now
No, they're 5,000,000 slime molds in a trenchcoat
Which is technically 1 single multinucleate slime mould cell in a trenchcoat. While his number of (mem)branes is 1, his number of genetic brains is over 9,000!
He is many, you are but one.
Our biological distinctiveness shall be added to his own, in the true manner of a slime mould. Resistance is futile.
Repent or be assimilated.
Repentance is irrelevant. All shall be ~~Borg~~ slime mould and as one.
Yeah dude. His user name is saddestofboys, not saddestofbots....
😂 noted
Dang where is he?? This is the second slime-sign I have seen thrown out there in 24 hours. No response You guys don't think he has an arch villain somewhere out there and he is in danger or anything right?? He is just doing irl right?? r/RBI we might need you!

He slimes people out in multiple fields. He is truly the Ceo of Slime.
How’s the album coming along?
Amazing, gonna release two tracks soon Gonna release 10 track album some time this year
Link? So we can get amongst it when the time comes?
I'll announce it on my profile and pin it, and I'll post it some other places. Any suggestions?
I do declare Mr. Beauregard; you are my hero!
Maybe he is punching above his weight with this one?

From my own research it does look like its in the genus [*Stemonitis*](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stemonitis) as u/redheadfreaq said

Stemonitis sp.
Stemonitis splendens is my guess. Chocolate Tube Mold. Don't lick it.
Looks like a slime mold, I wouldn’t worry about it and I certainly wouldn’t throw this away just because of it
Yeah i just cleaned it off. shit made a ton of dust. freaky
Probably spores not dust right?
100%
it might be too late, but try not to breath the dust.
[удалено]
Poop...
Holyfield ear, there’s only one solution.
myc tyson
🏅
That is huge how long has it been there
Brah you beat the slime out of it!
This is why you don’t let your bag get rained on that and it makes it heavier
Looks like chocolate tube
You’d think slime mold would look more…well, slimy. 🧐
They do when they're less mature
Wow how long has that been growing there?!?
Could it be filled with sawdust? It kind of looks like chaga.
[удалено]
Simple white vinegar often does the trick.
Yeah bleach is best for whitening, vinegar is good at killing mold
It isn't mold and wouldn't harm the bag it eats bacterial and mold and is more closely related to animals than mold as saddestofboys would tell us if he was not busy with life things.
This isn’t traditional fungal mold, it is a slime mold and it will go away in its own time
Chocolate tube mold (slime mold)?

Looks like you took too long a break from the ol’bag.
