    I’m a big fidget toy guy and your post the other day introduced me to begleri; made some homemade ones the day after and they have helped me sit through some really long lectures. Thanks!

      Holy shit, that’s a good wiki rabbit hole. I just learned about worry beads, prayer beads, and the fact ostrich egg beads are considered among the earliest ornaments created by Homo sapiens. I highly encourage people to check it out, if they have time to burn.
