~googles "is a woolybear prickly?"

Bruh, I've been in towns where the cicadas are SOOOO loud, it's almost scary. I'm like, chill, I want you as BGM, not as the main character...

Also, the "gentle rain" playlists on the green dot are LIES. Some of them are torrential downpours and just, NOT soothing haha Oddly enough, I found some YT vids of people walking through cool cities at night while it rains and I liked it!

I love the photo you took of the white seed blankets.

They are prickly! And some people kind of get a mild allergic reaction (just itchy skin) so no touchy which is kinda sad because if they were safe to touch I'd totally pick one up but lol. I just observe how cute from a close distance XD

I didn't even know cicadas were on the island until I moved away from the ocean inland to where more forests were and then I was like HOLY SHIT NO WAY IS IT A CICADA? XD

I totally agree with the gentle rain playlists being lies... I've taken to using ocean waves as white noise to fall asleep when needed cuz its a lot more trustworthy than the rain!! I really like watching people walk around at night too in cities! I remember in 2020 I found a guy walking around Japan like rural districts and such at night and just he had a gopro on his head so it was super chill and just vibes. I watched it a lot haha.
