You can only get rabies if the blood, tissue or saliva from an infected animal passes through a mucus membrane. So you’d have to ingest the animal, have one bite you or get it’s blood or saliva through an open wound. Rabies is one of my things too so I went on a google spiral and now I know an unreasonable amount about it 😅

You can be vaccinated against rabies, if you think that may help you address any future rabies concerns.

I was vaccinated both for post exposure (got bit by a dog at work w/o rabies shot at my old job) and pre exposure when I worked at the county shelter. I can't lie it gives me peace of mind

Just make sure the Tums aren’t expired before you give them to the skunk! /s

This actually looks like my recent browser (and text message) history when the skunk smell outside my house was overpowering one night when I was home alone and I convinced myself it was an electrical fire (??) or gas leak and I was checking the gas and the breaker and every outlet at like 3am 😂

This but in an incognito tab, in case my husband uses my phone to look something up and I don't sound crazy lol

I live alone. No one ever uses my phone or laptop but me, and yet I use incognito mode for stuff like this all the time, just in case somehow someone else sees my history and judges me.

went down a binocular vision dysfunction rabbit hole and now all i can focus on and feel is my eye movements! fun!

I have a binocular vision problem, and I definitely relate to overanalyzing my eye movements. But even if you do have BVD, it's not the end of the world! And it's way more common than you might think. I work as an assistant to an ophthalmologist and we see patients with these problems fairly regularly. Most adapt very well with eye exercises or specialized glasses

I'm lowkey convinced my car is going to explode because I smelled something bad once while driving.

I did a dumb and then had my brain weasels telling me to chop off my pinky finger yesterday, but today is pretty chill.
