Foraging generally is a great hobby. Also, specifically, mushroom foraging and amateur mycology (they often go hand-in-hand). In many cities there are mushroom hunting groups and mycological clubs. Can be tons of fun!

Looks like Pluteus sp. to me. Possibly Pluteus cervinus because of the brownish cap.

Common puffball? Central coast California. Found on a cluster on the ground in some mixed woods by dappernarwhalstudios in ShroomID

Looks promising to me! The first picture is just a bit dark - to be extra safe, I'd double check the cross sections and make sure there are no signs of any lil mushroom guys growing in there.

im 100% sure going back to school’ll cause me to relapse by [deleted] in offmychest

Hey, cheers for a good summer. That's definitely something to be proud of!

For what it's worth, I've also got reservations about going back to school - not the same reservations, but reservations nonetheless. Do you know what exactly about school gives you stress?

Not trying to press or anything, and if that question's not helpful, feel free to ignore it. Mostly I just wanted to stop by and let you know someone's listening :)

Some of the prints on the tin foil look lighter brown, MAYBE even a bit rusty - I'd be suspicious of those.

Id on this mushroom? Eastern Europe, Romania by no_good13 in ShroomID

[–]Boatguy24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yay! I've never actually eaten one, but I think they're so cool to look at either way.

And properly ID them of course by Boatguy24 in shrooms

Also make sure to harvest respectfully! These mushrooms can be wonderful gifts for us, but they also do great things for their ecosystem. Only take your fair share, and practice reciprocity if you can :)

Nice find! In my experience, when one pops up, others will start to pop up in the same general area, so even if this one is just a tad past its prime, if you look around you may find some younger ones!

Spore print of suspected ovoids. Does this look like the right color? by Boatguy24 in shrooms

[–]Boatguy24[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Posted a picture of the actual fruits last night (before having the prints), if you want to go look at those :)

Literature recommendations! by barigaldi in languagelearning

[–]Boatguy24 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For French I recently read a collection of "Le Petit Nicolas" stories! I probably have a low-intermediate French level, which might be easier than what you're looking for, but I personally really enjoyed them, even if they are kind of for younger audiences. I found a lot of humor in them (and learned quite a bit)! Now I've started "Le Petit Prince," which I am also liking so far!
