I dunno, I'd be pretty angry too if I was just minding my business and I got picked up and photographed.

If this is super recent, I recommend washing your hands. Toads sometimes excrete some pretty nasty toxins through their skin when they're agitated. Even when they're not "get you super sick" toxins like the Cane toad or the Colorado River toad, they can irritate the shit out of your skin.

Then again, washing your hands after handling wildlife in general is pretty good advice, tbh.

Probably just a typical toad from Ohio that’s melanistic — pretty rare I’d imagine, I don’t think we have any toads that dark.

As others have said wash your hands.
