Psathyrella sp.
Also "sub-", at least in mycological names.
The other day, I read that there's a mushroom called "Agaricus subsubensis" and I felt like I was being trolled.
It allows you to keep your arms shoulder-width apart which makes it easier to avoid hunching.
You ignite the torch before you move it close to the food so all the butane should burn off. Butane evaporates at room temperature anyway so I wouldn't expect it to be a problem. Propane is also fine which makes sense given that it's used in grills.
Creme brulee torches all use butane, did you mean to say propane?
An illegal executive order isn't a crime, it just doesn't count.
If wish to learn how to forage for mushrooms, join a local mycology club and go out with them. They can identify mushrooms for you and teach you how to do so yourself. They can also recommend good local field guides, I see a few folks in this thread recommending All that the rain promises and More which is a reputable guide but it's also spectacularly out of date and only applicable to Western North America.
It's important to know what you're doing but mushroom identification is not nearly as difficult as some of the comments here make it out to be. There are far fewer deadly mushrooms out there than most people think and it's fairly easy to familiarize yourself with all the deadly species in your area so you can avoid them.
Nothing wrong with picking a mushroom to ID at home or at an ID clinic run by your local mycology club. You should individually inspect each specimen as you're cleaning them anyway so you can throw out any which might be going bad, chock full of bugs, or misidentified.
When in doubt, throw it out.

That lady is wearing an empire waist top which flares out around the hips so it's going to be pretty hard to tell whether she has belly fat, a baby bump, or a six-pack underneath. I don't know why someone would feel confident enough to congratulate her on pregnancy when they can't even see her belly.
It's just the code that's not under copyright, so if someone leaked it you could legally copy and distribute any parts which are AI generated but it wouldn't invalidate copyright on the official binaries.
If all the code were AI generated (or enough of it to be able to fill in the blanks), you might be able to make a case that it's legal to build and distribute binaries, but why would you bother distributing that slop?
One of the guys from that band Limozeen, they turned their tourbus into a space machine.
Sadly, it was just some well-aged Russula.
Species is the olive shaggy parasol Chlorophyllum olivieri.
I like how they look like cake pops before they open up
From below you can really see the nice contrast between the pale gills and blue everywhere else
This mushroom is an Entoloma in the subgenus Leptonia, probably something like Entoloma subeuchroum or Leptonia subeuchroa if they decide to split Leptonia into its own genus as mycologists have been discussing.
Host is a crack-cap bolete (Xerocomellus diffractus). The mold is either Hypomyces chrysospermus or Hypomyces microspermus, you can only tell them apart under a microscope.
These are highly prized for dying fabrics. They tend to turn all black as they get older which has led to them being given another name: "the bear poop fungus" because a few too many dyers have gotten their hands unspeakably dirty in eagerness to reach for what they thought was this mushroom.
I don't dye fabric myself but I was able to give this one away to a friend who can put it to good use.
Want to know what that mushroom that keeps popping up in your yard is for? Bring them in and have them examined by expert identifiers.
There's also a giant display showcasing specimens of the various mushrooms of the Pacific Northwest, cooking demos, cultivation workshops, and more!
Sadly, only very rotten one on the left was. The other two are Cortinarius sp. with nearly identical caps.
Underside:
These are highly variable, they're often brown on top with a yellow stem. I was doubting my initial ID, thinking they might be Chrysomphalina aurantiaca because the color was so off so I took them to my mycology club and had it confirmed.
The Pacific Northwest Craterellus was just called by the European species name "C. tubaeformis" for a long time but it's not the same species, "C. neotubaeforumis" is a name that's been proposed but not yet formalized.
The ones I found were growing on a log but Pholiota can parasitize living trees so I made sure to keep them in a non-mesh bag.
They're are edible and occasionally cultivated. I plan to try some soon because I can't resist trying something so scaly and slimy that looks like you shouldn't eat it.
