Some light does penetrate the skull. So not completely dark. Also the blood brain barrier is semi permeable, so not completely sealed.

The eye sockets do not block the light with bone.

Haha, I understood how as soon as I read the comment, I just hadn't considered it up until that point.

Can someone without eyes get brain sunburn?

[-] MxM111@kbin.social 13 points 1 year ago

Based on some people behavior, I would say yes, even with eyes.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
