Are these safe to eat? Caps dark and shriveled after harvesting

So I had a grow going for a trip I was going on, and I was a little late with timing so I didn't have time to really dry the mushrooms before I went. So the I just harvested a few pins/prematures and I threw them in a plastic container with some desiccant and I figured they'd be fine since they're gonna be eaten soon anyway. I just checked on them and they look weird. They smell pretty normal for mushrooms, but just to be safe i'd like a second opinion. I know the blueing is normal, but it's the caps that worry me. They're all dark and shriveled and I just want to be safe. What do u guys think?

They're still good, but they won't be for long.
Next time leave them in your fridge, like you would with any other perishable food.

Would you put fresh food in your fridge if you planned on eating it tomorrow?

This all depends on the food in question........

Must you use some common sense for a second to solve your problem?

I have common sense and I know what I think. I don't need an answer like that. I'm asking for opinions of other people based on the photos. A simple yes or no to my question would have been fine. No need to start shit up.

They look like they are fine for now but will begin to rot soon if not stored properly. If you leave them like that they could go bad by the morning.
next time either put them in a paper bag and into your fridge if you are planning to use soon or dry them with a fan or dehydrator.
Also do not store fresh mushrooms in any type of sealed container or plastic it will make them rot faster.
-------------------- Favorite quote: I want to know if they are active and magic or not. And if they are not active, can i pick them before they are active and then they will become active or do they have to grow till they activate?
