"Centipedes don't fuck" is one of my favorite animal facts. There are plenty of sexually reproducing animals that don't fuck per se (like a lot of fish) but centipedes don't even meet. Males just leave sperm packets lying on the fucking ground and females pick them up and take them home. They don't even hang out

Thinking of becoming a guy that thinks wolves are the most badass and aspirational animal, but about ants. Like wearing t-shirts about being loyal to my Queen and training to bench 5x my bodyweight. Studying ant warfare. Posting shit like this

From here. If you think arachnids with long legs are just scary please watch this solifugid dig her nest (or try to) like SUCH a goofy little person creature. Look how she shoves dirt with her mouth and then gives it a little pat. Is she even making any progress?!

Making a game about bugs :] this account is for sharing progress related to that and to share the pixel bugs I'm making along the way. This is a sfw space for people who want to follow along with this project or just enjoy looking at bug art :)

Premise of game:

- Turn game on

- bugs come :]

- add new bugs to your collection

- time advances automatically, different bugs come depending on at time/date/ temperature/weather/biome, use bait or light to attract different types

- let bugs run in the background and keep u company while u work

- over 500 different bugs :] maybe more depending on how silly I get with it

Made a grasshopper sitting on the wheat. It's all made entirely of glass.

today’s lichen mystery: are these brick wall utility light enjoyers enjoying it because of the constant artificial light or because of how rain wraps around the neck of the light and dribbles down the wall in a slightly denser patch there (ensuring optimal eroded nutrients and trace microplastics)? many such things to consider
