The back feet of echidnas are backwards, what a fucking weirdo

Help this plum is angry at me, what do

This weevil is so pretty that I thought it was AI generated at first. It even has a great name, Polka Dotted Clown Weevil

My favorite bug is the wheelbug, aka Arilus cristatus. It's an assassin insect that preys mostly on pests and is an indicator of a healthy ecosystem. Also look at that fuggin half cog sticking out of her back. Metal.

On a scale of 1 to 100 how gay are you

How's the land down unda? Burnin' as evah? (I assume you're Aussie)

Would you like to talk about the assignment?

I went out for a run before work today! Which is most definitely the first time I've done that

my baby mantiseseses hatched, that's exciting

i love hyraxes

Pillbugs are fun

I really like toads. Specifically Fowler toads. They look grumpy all the time, in a good way.

Marmots also rule hard.

I like a lot of bugs, but a recent focus of mine, as I found one in my shower and didn't know they lived in my state, is a bristletail. They're like a shrimp that does backflips for some reason. They're one of the older bugs out their, and I think possibly related to sea scorpions, but I'll have to recheck that particular knowledge base when I get the motivation next.

My day is about to get hectic. I'm building a house, and left a room intact from an old build to qualify as a remodel for tax and appraisal purposes. I was getting ready to install some tile so I can put a toilet in, and the salvaged room floor collapsed. After ripping out the subfloor, I found that a porch attached to the house was hollow and filled with dirt, which rotted the wooden sill plate on the foundation. So I have to Jack the house up to replace the boards and then build a new floor.

Any advice I get on the fix seems to come from flippers. I don't want landlord repairs, I want permanent fixes. I'm not selling this shit. No ten year fixes. 50 year fixes.

At least it happened before I finished it and moved in.
