Ok, I know this sounds gross, but Im a 19 year old male, and i looked under my wooden bed, and noticed a few t-shirts that have been under there for at least 4 months, I forgot i threw them under there, and I seen a little brownish bug on one of my white t-shirts, the bug was brownish, and it was long. The whole bug was probably no bigger very small crumb - It was very skinny but long! what could it be?

I saw a map showing the location of the ice in the last ice age. The ice covered basicall 75% of N America and most of North-west Europe. But that was it.

Most of Siberia was free of ice, presumably because it did not suffer from the N Atlantic reversal of the ocean currents.

But if all that ice, up to 4 km deep, was offset so much of the pole, surely it must have had an effect on the way the Earth rotates.

I know the Earth is many orders more massive than that ice, but I note that bowlers in cricket can alter the swing of the ball simply by digging a gouge in it with their fingernail. It is called ball-tampering, and is illegal. But it goes on and does the trick of altering the spin of the ball.

So, surely all that ice must have had an effect.

Anyone heard of any evidence of that?
