I like that there’s no plastic casing for the tag. Instead it’s a pulp card that can sprout flowers. #ATBC2026

Saw a bunch of cool talks, moderated mammal talks, gave my talk.
Trusty fan kept me alive in swampy venues.
Then: mushroom hotpot! 12 species of fungi native to China. Really interesting textures and umami. And night cap of mushroom ice cream.
