Is it too late to drown myself in napalm?
How come there’s never little ape like creatures?
Because the fanfic would lead us further away from our path to god.
Shit

I am the planet now
Found out about these when I was a kid. I was thrilled. When I was very little, my mom owned a grooming shop, and I basically had 1 million pets. Then she closed down, and we just had our dog and a cat. Weird little 5 year old me loved the idea that I had thousands of little pets that’s slept on my face and came out to play while I slept
That’s the best possible reaction to this :)
I will admit that since I’ve started wearing glasses, my eyes often burn really badly (I don’t know if they’re related or just weird timing), and I sometimes wonder if my little friends are pissed about the change and getting into my eyes. Lol
Maybe you’re allergic to something in your glasses
That’s interesting. I hadn’t really considered that. It really only happens towards the end of the day, I just assumed it was a buildup of oils/skin cells/daily detritus that isn’t getting either blown away by air, because the lenses are blocking it, or dried out for the same reason. They’re Zenni frames and lenses

My fave parts (edited for brevity):
The adult mites are 0.3–0.4 mm (3⁄256–1⁄64 in) long. Each has a semitransparent, elongated body that consists of two fused parts. Eight short, segmented legs are attached to the first body segment. The body is covered with scales for anchoring itself in the hair follicle, and the mite has pin-like mouthparts for eating skin cells and oils that accumulate in the hair follicles.
… and …
The mites are transferred between hosts through contact with hair, eyebrows, and the sebaceous glands of the face.
Ohhh good.
Wait, 0.3mm is huge, you should be able to see that. I don’t think this is right.
Combine the size with the fact that they are semi transparent and live in hair follicles and sebaceous glands, both of which are essentially under the skin, and that’s why you don’t generally see them.
Maybe we do see them, but mistake them for bits of skin or dirt.
Agreed. 1/64th of an inch is .016". An average human hair is .003" in diameter, that would be as long as five hairs wide. You wouldn’t even need a magnifier to see the largest ones.
mouthparts
Josh & Chuck just got a tingle down their spines
This is why it’s okay to make out with randos at parties and such. You get mono for 6 months plus accretion of zillions of new friends.
He looks like a cute lil garbage pail kid type of thing.
Ugly cute. I like the little guy.
Time to scrub my face with a cheese grater

Ballsack looking ass

You into throwback ad hominem politics or just general misogyny? Why not both? Check out… I won’t even say the name. Fuck you.
