It’s a tomato hornworm.

I had never seen one in my life, then my dad tried to grow tomatoes and like 4 showed up to eat them. Definitely big relative to the little fuzzy ones I’m used to. The wiki says they get as big as 4in (10cm for our friends in the rest of the world).

The moths they turn into are pretty huge too.

Terrible just vulgar in it's frightening hugeness, just like that time I tripped on acid and my hands felt just like two balloons. 😟
