shroom

Trippy forest find

Shroom is informal for mushroom, almost always referring to psilocybin mushrooms—the kind that cause hallucinations when ingested.

We ate shrooms at the festival and watched the sunset for three hours.

The verb shroom means to take such mushrooms: They went shrooming in the woods last weekend.
