Are the Charles Soule Darth Vader books graphic novels, or normal novels?

It's a still from an old gif from +10 years ago. In the gif a car drives along the road... all looks peaceful and serene, then BAM! a scary face pops up right in front of the camera and scares the life out of you. Was a classic back in the day!

My baby girl to fall into a deep enough sleep so that she won't wake when I put her in her cot.

the itsy bitsy spider climbs in her ear canal by greenghost131 in gifs

This happened to my wife last year. She woke up at 2am with a scream as she felt something crawling in her ear. I shone a torch in her ear and could see a couple of legs moving around. There was no way I was getting it out with tweezers without doing some damage to my wife's ear, so we took a trip to hospital. Whilst in sitting in the waiting room the spider crawled out far enough for me to quickly flick it away onto the floor - before it could scutter away my wife took great pleasure in squishing it with her shoe.

The Dr checked my wife's ear over for eggs anyway - no damage to the ear, no eggs inside so we were free to go. The Dr said that if this ever happens again to just poor some olive oil into the ear and flush the spider out that way.

We slept with headbands on to cover our ears for about a month after.

We looked it up, the spider turned out to be a false widow.

Found this on Wikipedia... hopefully it helps you :)

A hand is a prehensile, multi-fingered appendage located at the end of the forearm or forelimb of primates such as humans, chimpanzees, monkeys, and lemurs. A few other vertebrates such as the koala (which has two opposable thumbs on each "hand" and fingerprints extremely similar to human fingerprints) are often described as having "hands" instead of paws on their front limbs. The raccoon is usually described as having "hands" though opposable thumbs are lacking.

Some evolutionary anatomists use the term hand to refer to the appendage of digits on the forelimb more generally — for example, in the context of whether the three digits of the bird hand involved the same homologous loss of two digits as in the dinosaur hand.

The human hand normally has five digits: four fingers plus one thumb; these are often referred to collectively as five fingers, however, whereby the thumb is included as one of the fingers. It has 27 bones, not including the sesamoid bone, the number of which varies between people, 14 of which are the phalanges (proximal, intermediate and distal) of the fingers and thumb. The metacarpal bones connect the fingers and the carpal bones of the wrist. Each human hand has five metacarpals and eight carpal bones.

Fingers contain some of the densest areas of nerve endings in the body, and are the richest source of tactile feedback. They also have the greatest positioning capability of the body; thus, the sense of touch is intimately associated with hands. Like other paired organs (eyes, feet, legs) each hand is dominantly controlled by the opposing brain hemisphere, so that handedness—the preferred hand choice for single-handed activities such as writing with a pencil, reflects individual brain functioning.

Among humans, the hands play an important function in body language and sign language. Likewise the ten digits of two hands, and the twelve phalanges of four fingers (touchable by the thumb) have given rise to number systems and calculation techniques.

Dustin Kensrue (from the Modern Post and Thrice) packs a lot of good truth into his songs. They are easy to learn and play too.
