    I was in a band called Tactile Hallucinations.

    Our music LITERALLY creeped people out: they got out of there because of the tactile hallucinations of creepy crawlies on their skin our carefully calibrated psychological weapon disguised as music caused.

    We were mostly hired by rival venues and neighbors of noisy ones.

    I usually think “oh shit a spider” when I feel itchy. Then, once I felt itchy and thought “a spider i- meh, you always think that when you itch.” and then when I looked down, there was actually a spider crawling on my leg.

      This happened to me a few months ago, I felt a tickle on my toes while I was brushing my teeth and was like “nah it’s just a string from my pants or something” then I looked down a few seconds later and see a big ass wolf spider standing on my foot. I freaked out and launched myself in to the wall behind me and it ran up into the crack between the sink and the wall where I couldn’t reach it and just sat there… taunting me. Normally I have a catch and release policy for bugs but that one was pushing it.

      Similar experience but with an absolutely massive cockroach (“Palmetto bug” for those wondering the scale). I freaked the fuck out lol. I thought my arm was just itchy but it didn’t go away and I looked down and started flailing everywhere.

      Sometimes I have an itchy feeling and get paranoid that there is a bug on me. And there almost never is so usually I ignore it. But occasionally there actually is a bug on me so I’m not just imagining!

        Lol. “Diphenhydramine.” Benadryl. Recreational use is a thing. (At higher dosages, it’s a deleriant.)

        Really scary drug. And I’m not just talking about the bad trips. It’ll fuck you up good for life. Really fucks up your nerves.

        According to Chat GPT:

        Dirty Phil Harris, often referred to simply as “Dirty Phil,” is a character from the TV show The Deadliest Catch. He’s a crab fisherman known for his tough, no-nonsense attitude and rugged persona. Phil Harris was the captain of the fishing vessel Cornelia Marie. He gained fame for his blunt, often coarse demeanor, which earned him the nickname “Dirty Phil.” His charismatic yet rough-around-the-edges personality made him a memorable figure on the show.
