what is the best way to unblock your nose? asking for a friend

The finger remains the safest and most efficient unblocker of noses there is, but the problem of where to put the blockage has confused humankind for eons. Here are the best and worst places to stash that mucus:

A Tissue - 2/10 The texture of these when wet and filled with snot is worse than the snot itself.

A Handkerchief - 1/10 Great only if you want to walk around with snot in your pocket or on display to the world.

The Ground or Floor - 3/10 It's out of the way but you run the risk of treading in it, or it transferring to the foot of a loved one.

A Tree - 4/10 Not good for the tree, not too bad though. Just mind that the tree is not poisonous to human contact.

Actor Gene Hackman - 2/10 He does not like when I do this.

A Sleeve or Pant Leg - 3-10 This depends on where the offending nasal production is hidden, or showcased.

Running Water - 7/10 Flickability allowing, if you can get the nose matter into a river or toilet, it's pretty good, but it can be hard to find such a location just when the moment arises.

Gustav Klimt's "The Kiss" - 0/10 Do not deface great art.

An Original Ari Bach Drawing - 6/10 No major drawbacks.

Leitz Cine Summilux-C T1.4 12-Lens - 3/10 May affect focal clarity.

A Tesla Cybertruck - 9/10 Rarity and danger of asshole drivers attacking you are the only drawbacks to applying your mucoid expulsions to one of these pathetic and dangerous MAGAmobiles. Bonus points if they rot the unfinished steel from nasal pH.

The Declaration of Independence of the United States of America - ?/10 Nicolas will get back to us on that once he succeeds.

So I’m a little late to the party but I finally listened to the Ithaca saga of Epic, and it was amazing, it made me cry!

But one thing on my brain is the Scylla song, because Scylla says “we are the same you and I”.

I noticed in the Odysseus song that they go “keep your head down he’s aiming for the torches”, which made me think of how Scylla killed the six men who held the torches in the thunder saga.

Little parallel of murder.

Not gonna lie, one of the worst things about mucus that I don't see touched on very often in whump content is the taste. It's such a uniquely gross thing, it tastes sick in a way little else does

Mucus is a natural source that supports optimal health

While mucus problems quickly go away, too much of it could be harmful. It may contain dangerous bacteria that can lead to life-threatening infections

[blatentmisinformation]

The average human body is nearly 25% mucus by volume.

Mucus and Movement

Live imaging of human bronchial cells growing in the lab tracks the relationship between the COVID-19 virus SARS-CoV-2 with mucus and ciliary action – wafting by the airway cells' hairy projections. Such muco-ciliary clearance (MCC) in life aims to protect against infection by moving mucus up to the throat for expulsion, keeping the airways open. This study finds that MCC initially facilitates SARS-CoV-2 infection but subsequently inhibits spread
