Please Take A Moment To Appreciate Insects

they literally just exist to exist
eat sleep reproduce repeat
they do nothing but live their life and i mean i wish i had to worry about whether or not i can eat tomorrow than have to worry about doing taxes haha am i right millennials god i nailed that one
despite being like nothing they're still super badass



have you heard of camel spiders? wait they have a cooler nickname, SUN spiders. spiders made from the sun. oh wait they have an even better nickname, WIND SCORPIONS. imagine being this little spider dude and getting the most badass name out of everything. i would happily die via wind scorpion just so my obituary could be blessed with such a dank name. what god made a wind scorpion? look at them. they're horrifying. they're not venomous but they will mess you up. they are such chads honestly like jeez dude.



another spider with a badass name is the six eye sand spider. this sounds like a name straight out of yugioh. opposite to wind scorpions, the sand spider is shy, cute, and the most venomous spider ever to exist. they kill some cockroach and then they are fed for the next year, they never have to drink water. they literally live in deserts and they get all their moisture from their prey.



ants. like, what the frick? they just like, exist. most don't bite, they're not intimidating, they just like ignore everything and serve their queen. rock on little ant dudes you mad gnarly.



bees are mad legendary dude. mad respect to all my bee brothers out there. but evolution turned the bee into a useless edgy neet. fuck you wasps. wasps invade bee colonies and kill all the bees because they are awful idiots. god i hate wasps. you do not deserve appreciation.

i would talk about more insects but unfortunately i have ran out of time and i don't want to hog all of them. please discuss your favorite bugs and take a moment of silence for our underappreciated friends.

 

my favorite bug is snails they are cool and I use their slime to make ZORK STEW

 

Ah adventurer, come sit with my by this fire and enjoy some homemade hearty Zork Stew. My mother’s recipe

 

My favorite insect is LarzLapiz

________________________________

also I would like to say, crayfish > insects

They are cool, they have pincers, you can feed them minnows and peas, they are the easiest pet to take care of and they fight with other crayfish to the death and its awesome. Also there is the allusive extremely rare blue crayfish, and I have found one before in a sewer and it was really cool.

and crayfish are basically aquatic insects so add crayfish to the list
p.s. there are baby crayfish

 

ill pass

 

I think I got arachnophobia by reading this...
