Assigned dean kin by my subconscious

Anyways so I feel like death warmed over bc I got 2 hours of sleep despite trying for many more bc my brain just decided that wasn’t happening but for the brief period I did sleep one of the dreams I had was about Supernatural and like Dean hadn’t slept in like two days and was on the verge of collapse and kept trying to investigate a haunted casino but he also kept collapsing and passing out in various places and Sam kept having to drag him to out of the way spots and Dean kept being in denial that he needed to sleep despite like literally fainting.

Like I knew it was my subconscious being like hey Hal tarantula hawk wasp this is what happens when we don’t sleep

how am i supposed to pick a favorite hhhh does it have to be true bugs or does any arthropod work??? jgjgkejdn i adore every tarantula but if i had to pick just one

maybe Aphonopelma chalcodes (Arizona blonde) because they have a reputation for being super tame and docile, described as gentle giants. theyre one of the only tarantulas for whom handling isnt a horrible idea, depending on the individual of course. females can live up to thirty years! i want one really really bad!

also, @hawkpartys i think if i had to give you your government mandated bug kin / bugsona, I'd have to pick a hawkmoth (duh). maybeee a hummingbird hawkmoth (Macroglossum stellatarum) because their red hindwings makes me think of red tailed hawks, and youre their top ID'er on iNaturalist so thats your other government assigned kin/sona

I'm curious! For you fellow bug enjoyers, what are y'all's favorite bug species :?

(Plus, bonus question if you reblog this from someone, is there a bug species you associate with the person you reblogged this from or bug you think they'd be?)
