Oh, man, I went to a wedding over the summer and tried to tape both girls back, but ended up with the rash to end all rashes.

URGH. That's the worst part. Hope you feel better soon! Getting that thing out made a huge difference to me!

Man, I can see how these would be convenient for very short term wear, but I am imagining the adhesive rash I'd get!

I’m gonna do a little #TakeTwoTuesday with one of my favorite fics, “Provenance”, which fits a little into the #Whumptober category. Link 👇

The first few years of them it was SO GROSS--there were thousands of them everywhere, but I think after that, other things figured out that they could eat them and they're just irritating now.

they're little shield bugs, but they're brown and if you annoy them, they'll stink you with a smell that's strangely reminicient of coriander.
reluctantrose.bsky.social
yeah, they're all coming inside for the winter. I try not to think about my attic. 🤢
reluctantrose.bsky.social
UGH. HATE grabbing an upexpected stink bug.

I was literally just lamenting the lack of a meet up on the horizon.

People cutting down trees unnecessarily has always made me furious.

They’re just the most horrifying looking things. But once I found out that they ate bugs that try to eat my house, I’ve tried to train myself out of levitating every time I see one. It doesn’t mean I wanna share a shower with one, though.

Honestly, you want these guys in your house cause they eat termites, but they…look like this.

I would like to announce that I am the bravest person in my house this evening and deserve a little prize for willingly showering with a thousand-legged on the ceiling above my head. (I think the threat of mutually assured destruction kept the situation under control.)
