Found under pines in the proximity of other obvious A. muscaria and Russula. Took the shot thinking obvious Fly Agraric that's been dried by the sun. Just making sure.

Forget the Amanita..... what's that freaky-deaky stuff underneath of it. Is it some kind of poo, rocks or some other type of fungus? (maybe some sort of Xylaria??)

That's the cone of Pinus radiata, the most common host tree for Amanita muscaria subsp. flavivolvata in California.

Aha - I see it now... just a bit of one of those huge cones that you find in Christmas displays.
I'm so used to our trees up a here a little further north, which being largely Doug firs mostly have quite small cones.
-------------------- Disclaimer - I'm just a hobbyist and cannot absolutely guarantee any ID offered. I'm most familiar with the species found in the Pacific Northwest - those found in other parts of the world may vary considerably, so always do your own research to find out what grows in your area and what lookalikes you need to be aware of. Understand that many mushroom species cannot be 100% reliably identified by photographs alone, even by an expert, so it may not be possible to go beyond suggesting a probable genus.

Beautiful amanita.

The mushrooms are great. The mushrooms are fine. Give me them with lashings of wine.
