Sometimes I get it so strong on one side my back arches involuntarily it's the weirdest shit. I think it's a form of synesthesia - from audio to physical sensation. I've noticed it's similar to how a frisson feels when listening to music but more concentrated and localised. They've found unexpected changes in melody or dramatic climaxes in music tend to be more likely to trigger a frisson. It's similar in asmr - the mechanism for the tingle is easily worn out with a prolonged exposure - hence the videos trying to capitalise on "unexpected" triggers. It's poor asmr when someone goes close to the mic and repeats the trigger without pause or without change in distance or even volume. Sure the tingle is strong at first but loses strength very quickly. It can be vaguely "relaxing" but the euphoria is not sustained. An anticipation must be built - this is also why accents are good for asmr. The speaker naturally hesitates. What triggers do you like out of curiosity?

nostr:npub1yda99e8qfn7z89uqmvk4pll5q063v48rxmsplgtkr9pjh6ppx0rsddlmlr Do you get "tingles" - like a euphoric sensation on your skin around your head and neck and back? It's a physical thing.

nostr:npub1yda99e8qfn7z89uqmvk4pll5q063v48rxmsplgtkr9pjh6ppx0rsddlmlr Do you get asmr?

I'm an asmr patrician. I could write essays on the finer points of what makes an asmr video good, on the theories behind its mechanism, on sound quality and binaural setups. But nobody fucking cares and there is no point.

Too restless to sleep, too foggy brained to do something productive. I need a cartoon hammer to knock me out.

let me sleep god let me sleep let me sleep let me sleep and have no nightmares and headaches let me sleep please :pleadhelp:

I've never checked for ticks after walking in the bush

can't sleep :niggaseverementaldistress:

considering pet cats are legal everywhere in aus there's no reason any other animal should be illegal for environmental reasons

nostr:npub1srhg4hk63ew68kepu0znazgf9tdl089dkur5artp440htxqrc8zsqz8g90 tbh it's very fortunate that they brought brits here and none of them had rabies

For some reason Queenslanders aren't allowed pet rabbits yet it's fine in every other state. I don't think your average dwarf lop would last 10 seconds in the wild here tbh.

I'm once again haunted by memories of the egg and bacon plant

nostr:npub1srhg4hk63ew68kepu0znazgf9tdl089dkur5artp440htxqrc8zsqz8g90 I think measures to reduce the fox population (leaving poison bait around) have been more effective so probably.

nostr:npub1srhg4hk63ew68kepu0znazgf9tdl089dkur5artp440htxqrc8zsqz8g90 oh wait a second - I looked it up and European wild rabbits were released, not the domesticated ones bred for food

nostr:npub1srhg4hk63ew68kepu0znazgf9tdl089dkur5artp440htxqrc8zsqz8g90 yeah they were originally released for the purpose of hunting and making Aus feel "more like England"

nostr:npub1srhg4hk63ew68kepu0znazgf9tdl089dkur5artp440htxqrc8zsqz8g90 our bandicoots are way less skittish than most rabbits I've seen which is probably why the rabbits are winning

nostr:npub1srhg4hk63ew68kepu0znazgf9tdl089dkur5artp440htxqrc8zsqz8g90 They're super skittish tbh it's hard to get within like 20m of them without them running - there's still foxes (also a problem for aussie wildlife) and farmers with guns. Once I kept really still in the bushland near some farms once and this baby rabbit came within like 1m of me it was so cute but as soon as I flinched it was gone.
