It's like everyday - Lemmy.World

It’s actually normal.
Your nostrils cycle between like this so that the one can take a break from the air flow and mitigate drying out.
Not only does it help from drying out, but it helps with smell too; some things are better detected with a slower airflow
Yep, there’s a reason our noses didn’t simply evolve into a singular hole in the middle of our faces

I was going to say because it would be fucking weird if we just had one big nose hole. Now I’m thinking about it, our nostrils are already pretty weird.

I’m now looking in the mirror at my nostrils and pumping them to the beat of a song.

It’s like semantic satiation but for physiology.
