*I know body shaming is wrong. But if making fun of Roger Stone’s head is wrong, I don’t wanna be right.

I think they’re kinda cute. I bet if you tickled that star spangled nose he’d be wiggly like a puppy having belly scritches.

We have them around our house. I’ve always thought they’re kind of cute, too. Never got the opportunity to tickle one, but if I do, I’ll let you know!

Oh, let me know as well, please. I have some vague memory to zoology lectures telling me that this nose appendages show the highest number of touch receptors per area known to date. I wonder if this still true - and or course what a star-nosed mole would feel if you tickle it’s nose…
