I think it was millipedes.

One of the largest of these was Arthropleura Armata, a genus of millipede that inhabited coal forests and could grow up to 2.5 metres in length.
We call this “doing paperwork.”
It’s lovely, Bones! Thank you!
Yes you are! And a handsome one at that.
My car makes it slightly difficult to change lanes if I don’t signal, some resistance on the steering wheel and a warning beep beep beep that I’m “drifting.” There are some terrible roads around here that confuse the sensors so I do a bit of steering wheel arm wrestling now and then just to keep going straight.
That does seem like something I should look into…
Normal blood pressure, I get it checked every two weeks for an unrelated thing, just salt sensitive.
My apple watch has alerted me to the fact that if I eat a really salty meal- like a burger and fries, or a whole bag of kettle chips- my heart rate increases by about 40 beats per minute. It’s like “Hey… you don’t seem to have moved and your heart is going bananas. You ok bro?”
Oh good. That makes more sense.
They wash their vegetables with soap? Like… special veg soap or just like Dawn or something?
A friend of mine solves this by meticulously peeling the caps and discarding the stems. It seems like a lot of work to me. I use a mushroom brush to get the dirt and substrate/manure off and call it good.
Also, chips make you fat now.
About 110, but most are not very active. I do tend to go through my ‘subscribed: new’ feed pretty quickly and then switch to ‘local: active.’
Ickplant moderates and is the main poster for !otters@lemmy.world , !bats@lemmy.world , !opossums@lemmy.world and !beavers@lemmy.world which, together are about half my Subscribed feed. BonesOfTheMoon fills my feed with !poetry@lemmy.world which is nice.
because it aggravates you?
I use Mlem on iPhone, but I can’t send private messages, I just get an error message every time. I have to use voyager if I want to do that. Otherwise it’s a very good app.
A friend of mine told me he went to a concert that was “so loud it physically hurt his ears.” He thought I was looking at him like he had two heads because that was such a strange experience until I told him that voices at normal conversational volume often “physically hurts my ears.”
He never knew why I was always asking him to lower his voice, he thought it was just a weird thing I did.
The language they use there would be hilarious if it wasn’t, you know, horrible. Men against girls. Like there’s a bunch of surly 35 year old men, absolutely dunking on a team of 5 year old girls just doing their best!
