sure. this is one of my adult glowspot roaches (Lucihormetica verrucosa). I have four of them in my care. Yes, their eyespots do glow! - If they’re fed the right diet of mycelium to feed the bioluminescence. All four adults have been in my care for their entire lifespan - so far one year as of February 2025.

you people are the fucking worst

It's always bothered me that when people adapt Kafka's Metamorphosis they depict Gregor Samsa as a roach. Cockroaches do not undergo metamorphosis. They are born as nymphs which are just smaller wingless versions of the adult form.

Kafka writes that Gregor can only enjoy rotten food. Which also makes him not at all roach-like. Roaches strongly prefer fresh vegetables to rotten ones.

And, of course, he gets stuck on his back, not something roaches struggle with nearly as much as beetles.

That's why always imagined him as a beetle. Which implies that the man Gregor was a larvae for all his pre-bug life. I thought that was the whole point of the story... We're all grubs, but Gregor reached the next stage though sadly none of the grubs in his family could understand him.

As a bug lover, it's so frustrating to me that disgust of bugs is so dang common. Like, I get people with phobias, that's something they can't control. But it's just this like...hatred. Like imagine that you really liked dogs and every time you wanted to talk about dogs or post a picture of a cute puppy, everybody start saying stuff like "Ew kill it with fire! That's so nasty. I want to vomit."

Like...It's just a LITTLE GUY!

Come on man :(
