Have you ever done any of the giant ridiculous hats women wear at the Kentucky Derby? :D

I don't think so! If there's any in particular you'd like to see, let me know! (Preferably one that I can cleanly cut out...)

Also thank you for going through just about all of my posts lmao. Very appreciated <3

can you put vibrio vulnificus in a pirate/tricorn hat please? and/or rabies lyssavirus in a “women love me fish fear me” (or variations) hat? tysm your blog is making me so happy

I know I've done Rabies lyssavirus before (though it wouldn't be the first duplicate, there's another I accidentally did one time...). I've also done a "women want me, the minds of fish are unknowable" hat before. I've also done a tricorn before but honestly there's only so many hats that exist lmao. Vibrio vulnificus shall be added to the list!

Also tysm y'all's support means everything, even if I'm horribly inconsistent at posting lmao.

Could you do bacillus anthracis in a burger king crown?

I know I've considered anthrax before, but haven't because all the image options kinda suck. But for you, dear follower, I will do it.

Diatom with those silly fakes glasses with the spring eyeballs

Ooh that's a good one. Again comes dangerously close to "does this count as a hat"...... buuut who cares I make the rules.

You should put parakaryon myojinensis in a hat. Maybe a detective hat and magnifying glass, since the creature is a bit of a mystery

Can do!
