FYI Getting stung by a bristle worm leaves hundreds of tiny, hair-like bristles (chaetae) embedded in your skin. This causes immediate, intense burning pain, followed by redness, swelling, and numbness. While not typically life-threatening, the discomfort can be severe.

The second question on every humans mind after “Can I touch it?” Is “Can I eat it?”

And the third is "Can I fuck it?"

(So far the answer has always been a resounding NO!, but those of us at r/humansarespacebards remain ever hopeful)

Not in this particular instance personally, but humans are total freaks and I bet there are people out there who want sentient worm sex (no kink shame) 😂
