It’s wild how relative pain and pain tolerance are. One time I flayed open my finger so bad I saw my own skeleton and I said “ow” and calmly did first aid on myself, and yet every time my hair gets caught in my necklace clasp it feels like I’m getting unplugged from the Matrix and I howl and weep

#there are just so many nerves on your scalp tho#honestly a stupid amount of nerves#not so many nerves on the skeleton parts

… Y’know, that actually makes a lot of sense. And my risks of scalp arthritis or scalp neuropathy are pretty low as far as I know.
