Thanks!

I think the consensus is tick larva or nymph. Must have found a nest.

Thanks for your input

Ugh, did some Google searches again. Larval or nymph phase ticks look like that might be it. I found like 4 of these crawling on me just a few minutes ago.

Thanks, hopefully I'll not see any more.

In the Kentucky/Indiana area.

Pretty sure it's not a chigger, I've never run into those here. Did some googling, from what I'm able to see, I don't think it's a bed bug either. Doesn't seem to match any phase.

Perhaps they're tiny ticks. Hope not. I posted more pics to another comment thread, lmk if those help.

Yeah I don't think they're ticks. But they could be. I've found like 4 more on me just now. From googling, I suspect they MIGHT be bird mites....

Tiniest little bug. I only saw 4 legs, but it probably has more. Adding more pics in the comments, can only upload one. Phone wouldn't really focus on it.

Correct! Sorry for missing that.

Does this still benefit the CP consuming original creator

I can recommend escape sim! It's fun, has loads of included maps and lots of dlcs. The VR port is pretty good and getting better.

As an American, I think I'd support compulsory voting... But the right would fight that with everything they had, because if everyone had to vote, they'd never win with their current stances.

So religion is a pretty common theme in his books. Stormlight and Elantris (more for the latter) have heavy religious influence.

I'm reading Elantris now, and I can't imagine a man who understands religion as well as he does (based on his writing) believes anything about the TSCC. This thought just came to mind as he's describing how the one dude knows how to manipulate the masses, using their pride and shame to his own ends.

Anywho, just throwing that out there. 🤷

Have a great weekend, and a lovely second Saturday everyone!

I've been keeping my pebble 2 alive for a very long time. New battery a few months ago, rewiring the vibrator motor due to the wire breaking at the solder point, new 3d printed buttons.

It's been working great for a very long time. Today, the motor itself is dead, resoldering it yielded no joy.

I think I need to retire this watch. I've asked my brother if I could buy one of his (he backed all the kickstarters) that isn't working any more. I'll replace the battery in it, and get it working again.

It's so sad that these aren't made any more. No significant changes or updates in what, like 7 years, and it still functions nearly perfectly. I wish so badly that someone would pick up where they left off and manufacture some more.

Super weird, noticed it today on his right foreleg just above the elbow joint. Feels like there's something underneath, and had this chunky white protrusion. Can't find an exact match via Google. Expecting some sort of cyst or maybe a blocked gland?
