learned about a beetle called the diabolical ironclad beetle today and if that's not the most welsknight/helsknight coded bug ever i don't know what is /silly
they have such a strong exoskeleton that they can withstand getting run over by a car (which is so sick like wtf how) and entomologists that want to display specimens have to drill holes in their shell for the pins to go through bc they can't be pinned properly with just stainless steel pins?? like bro?? look up how their shells are interlocked and stuff it's insane
also diabolical is in the name lmao

no, no, what you don't understand is that children can't consent because children are stupid, they're idiots, they don't understand what's going on; they're basically animals, and you wouldn't believe it if someone told you a dog agreed to their treatment, right,
like, it's so easy to lie to children, they'll just believe anything you tell them, and so like, why would you believe anything they say? they don't know what they're saying.
so like, there's no weight to my daughter saying she wants to stay over at her friend's house unless I agree with it, since she can't consent, and there's no reason to believe my daughter when she says that every day after taking her home from school i lock her in a basement full of cockroaches and that that's the only thing she eats

Ok so I'm taking a genetics class right now and in lab we've been given fruit flies with different mutations that we need to breed over the course of the semester.
Now, first thing I learned: fruit flies don't eat fruit. They eat yeast. They eat the yeast on fermenting fruit. They can not actually eat fruit. Their name is a lie.
Secondly, one of the two mutant lines I was given to cross are flies with the apterous mutation, aka they're wingless. I feel so bad for them, they can't do the one thing they're named for, they cant fly.
And then I realized. My fruit flies are in truth insects that eat yeast and can't fly.
Anyways, I've been calling them my yeast crawls and I am their god now.

Friday, November 24.
A snug bug in a rug.
As Gregor Samsa awoke one morning from uneasy dreams he found himself transformed in his bed into a gigantic insect. This, Gregor thought, simply could not be better.

@ California mutuals: If it hasn't already been said: Try not to walk in flood water. If a power line is down its a perfect recipie for getting electrocuted. Its likely also dirty and full of sewage. Sometimes theres no choice, so if you DO end up walking in flood water, beware: if you see a patch or raft of brown like this, it's fire ants. They all climb on each other to form a raft and it's TERRIFYING (and cool to watch. ) Yes those are ALL fire ants.
