i thought so too, initially. in another sub someone said whale vertebrae, and i thought maybe atlas/axis level. no size reference makes it difficult. we’ll need a cat’s paw 🐾
agreed. body hair is just a thing. sometimes we deal with client’s excessive body hair, and have to use vast amounts of oil, and yes, we clean skin and hair off our arms, rugs, tables, and floors on the daily. that’s massage.
we started suki on dry food as a pup and used to suffer what i’d call “the fart blanket”, which would rise to cover you and sit, smothering, until you desperately changed locations.
i’m in the states, own my own studio, and am the sole supporter of my family. we’re not rolling in cash, and i choose to have a relatively light schedule so i have more time with my son.
my initial thought was petosky (as you found). i know there are some more well-versed people here who know the subtle differences between varying types of hexagonaria ✨
I know a place in Michigan where there's some that are just small boulders just on the shore of Lake Michigan. Kind of a hidden beach just north of Sleeping Bear Dunes. I was out there relaxing one day when a couple of ladies who were walking by spotted it. They walked up to and tried to dig it out of the sand/ water.
Thank you so much for your thorough reply!!! I had no idea about the multitude of resources available and I will definitely be checking those out, additionally pushing my neuro & neurosurgeon more so for more answers. If not too much trouble, how is your son doing now? Again thank you for your thoroughness, I’ll be reaching out!
I entered peri-menopause at 40. I’m 56 now. I still have daily/nightly hot flashes. I’m still losing hair. I’m still moody and bitchy all the time. I still forget absolutely everything. I honestly don’t believe there is an end to this.
thank you!! i was wondering why it looked like that, it’s such a cool texture. so far my research isn’t turning up any freshwater clams that look like this, although it does look a lot like some saltwater clams. so still a mystery :)
yeah, like this article points out we barely have any mussels at all anymore that aren’t zebra mussels or quagga mussels. occasionally i find a unionid shell and then that’s pretty much it for clam shells around here. anyway, today i found what looks like a cowrie shell so i’m convinced someone’s playing a prank on me
I have a theory that I haven’t heard anywhere else about Gen X and today’s youth. We had nuclear drills and diving under our desks, they have active shooter drills and blocking doors. The baked in thought that you could just randomly die at any moment and there’s nothing you can do about it creates a nihilistic world view. “Whatever”, “YOLO”, “Party today, tomorrow isn’t guaranteed”.
my best guess: looks like chert! flint is a type of chert, note the similarity in the way the chipped bits fractured here. i find quite a bit of this in lake michigan, in an array of colors, including this one.
My guess would be hips, I'm not fully sure but, I think hips/pelvis

In Michigan, we call Hexagonaria coral a Petoskey stone
yep, hexagonaria percarinata.
rises exponentially with each picture 😊
Y’all really gotta say something in the moment. I swear.

hi!
absolute stunner of a magnolia. i love the petal drop, it’s like a painting on the greening grass.

i would absolutely ask your neuro for a genetic test, first and foremost. that would clear up any questions about an NF diagnosis.

or, you’ve found some window into a parallel universe 😁 at least it keeps it interesting, and makes me do some homework!

i’m always super suspicious when it comes down to “my way can save your life! take off ten years! put you into remission and make you poo diamonds!”

at 15, my son will randomly hijack the car music and plays…. all my shit. 😊

F*ckin college girlfriend still has it. I mean, she probably doesn't still have it but damnit
she does. 😁
the more relevant question is: how lucky are we to be the first generation to genuinely support either decision?
it’s exhausting.

bahahahaha my first thought after DAMN.
damn girl! looks like a stunner of horn coral, in my opinion. i find lots of thumb-sized ones in lake michigan.

imma say this, do what you will with it.
