One day we will tell stories to our children about how bugs used to exist before we destroyed our ecosystem.
The bugs will outlive us.
Chill in the air
It was 80 degrees this week. In Pennsylvania.
You’re really going to look this feller in their sad little eyes and tell them to go to hell?
Shame on you.
He’s okay. He can stay.
I’m picturing him with a voice like Droopy’s.
They actually just move inside your walls for the most part. Waiting. Plotting. Breeding.
As a hiker, I love a good cold run in the winter. A week of temperatures below 10°F (-12°C) will kill the majority of ticks in a region. The colder it gets, the quicker they’ll die.
I’m unsure if they count as bugs but I got stung in the head by a wasp yesterday while it was 5°C and -2°C the night before. They can not be bothered.
Fall is BIS. Crisp air. Less people outside. The tree colors make happy chemicals in my brain.
i guess texas is hell after all heh
Was that ever in doubt?
I feel like I’ve not seen a bug outside of my home in years
I get the complaint, but I could do with some more bugs these days.
???
I vacillated all day on whether I actually wanted to answer this question(?) because if you’re not familiar with the situation, it might be a blissful oblivion. However, if it were me, I’d rather know.
Among the many other potentially apocalyptic situations going on, insects are dying out. If insects die en masse, especially pollinating ones, our entire ecosystem dies. Which means no food. Even if you exclusively eat meat, your meat eats plants, which require insects.
Therefore, I wouldn’t mind a few more bugs around so that I could feel confident of continuing to be able to find nutrients.
I didn’t know that ! Is this a very local thing ?
No, it’s worldwide. Further information: [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decline_in_insect_populations](insect apocalypse)
edit: my links never seem to work, but it might be my client. Sorry if so.
Are you ready to kill some bugs?!
obligatory “I’m doing my part!” quote
Spider crickets are the fucking worst.
Except those mosquitos with antifreeze for blood. God damn GMO monstrosities
Fall is the best, summer is my favorite. No further questions, please.
