It seems pretty, but I am not sure I would enjoy it getting in my shorts ..

You wouldn't enjoy regular sand either. It's coarse and rough and gets everywhere.
But at least it's not spiky coarse
It annoys not just the men but women and children too
Even walking barefoot seems like it would be painful!
How are single-celled organisms so big?
there is bigger https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valonia_ventricosa
You’re wrong, my brain is the largest single cell organism
How do you do, Mr amoeba
That's the biggest cell I've seen since my first phone 25 years ago!
i remember this, the forbidden grape
And technically there are even larger individual cells, such as adipocytes or myocytes.
Ostrich eggs. Single cell, though different since it's a haploid cell.
Walking barefoot is better or worse than walking on LEGO pieces?
Might be a silly question from me, but I have no experience with that type of sand. Does it hurt when you run your hand through it or grab it? How fragile or tough are those pieces of sand?
Can't be that fragile else the waves would have destroyed them long ago
That makes me strangely uncomfortable.
what I imagine astrophages to look like
Babylon 5 Shadows enters the thread.
"Hoshi-zuna no Hama" (星砂の浜) literally means "Star-sand Beach"
Taketomi Island. Very chill, really beautiful place. Would love to visit again.
Looks lik a regular beach, but then... !
