If your iris is secreting milk, or a milk like liquid, you should probably go to the doctor.

My irises have leaked as much milk as my nipples so that checks out.

What if my nipples are absorbing light?

Most nipples do absorb some light

Except that way fewer people enjoy having them licked.

It's an ancient 4chan staple from waaay back when it was actually worth going there.

Fair. I meant it relatively.

Wasn't there a scene in Aeon Flux similar to this?

usualsuspect191@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 165d (1 reply)

There's the "alien" that wants to swap eyes with Aeon but she's not into it, and Trevor later does.

Edit: Season 3 Episode 10, "End Sinister"

It took me awhile, but what I was thinking of was from season 2 episode 1, "gravity" and really isn't related here except for the tongue 🫣 I guess it has been too long... Thanks for dragging me into some memories ❤️

There's the fly scene in the opener

Many moons ago, I've read a translation of a Japanese short story, which stipulated that a pastime among Japanese youth is having one person repeatedly lick an eyeball of another, whereupon the recipient begins experiencing special effects, iirc described as seeing diamonds in the sky.

As an aficionado of various psychologically surreal shit, I'd be glad to find this story again, but the chances are slim. It might've been written by Kobo Abe, as I discovered his work at about the same time and space, but I have doubts about that.

More like areola. The nipple is missing.

janonymous@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 165d

My bad. I meant the cornea

The nipple is the aperture of the breast

Mowcherie@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 164d

So in that sense the pupil is thr nipple of the eye, because that is the aperture. Perfect logic.

I’ve got irises. Can you milk me, Greg?
