Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Every time I see this meme or versions of it I die a thousand times. Mushrooms are the penises of fungus who jizz peacefully in the wind. They WANT to be eaten. Spores travel far.
Psilocybin, if anything, is probably adapted to be attractive to other animals.

Moreover, eating the mushroom isn't even hurting the original organism. It's pretty vestigial once the spores have found a way to get out.

Then why are there also extremely poisonous mushrooms?

I've been using one of the hottest sauces I've had in a long time. It's called Satan Revenge made with ghost peppers. I'm in so much pain when and after eating it. It's good stuff.

The Botany of Desire is a fantastic book and also documentary that discusses, in some part, plants being desirable to humans as a selective force. Plant species that humans value have a higher likelihood of surviving because we use them for agriculture, ensuring their ongoing existence. Everything from tea to teonanácatl!

Or they produce it exactly because animals are entertained by it to spread its spores. Or it's random. Or who the hell knows. 🤷♂️

Scientists. Scientists are who knows.
I could see that being really bad for something that size.
These things usually aren't random. It takes energy for the organism to make it, so there's usually some evolutionary advantage.
Reminded me of this.
Dropped my phone can you help me find it?
