Can you imagine what it'd be like if you came home from work after a long day of paralyzing spiders to pack zombified into your babies lunch boxes*... only to find the door to the lovely little house you built from scratch blocked by THIS FACE.
This face. (see photo) and it's some guy who won't leave your house and he's using his head to block the entrance. You try to pull him out, but he's locked in with spines!
And do you know what he's up to?
He's guarding your house hoping it will get him LAID. I kid you not. He's got a girlfriend with a similar FACE and she is coming over and if she is impressed with YOUR house they will lay eggs on your eggs and it's all over for your little babies.
You get so disgusted you buzz off to start over.
Based on facts gleaned from various papers and this post: https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/fundiesvatheists/the-strange-case-of-myrmilloides-grandiceps-t2199886.html
*because you are a ground nesting bee

✨ bald-face-beauty follow
y'all need to stop shitting on parasitoids. "i'm a wasp but at least i'm not the type that are gross dirty parasites lol" do you fucking hear yourself.
🪵 woodful-chewer follow
Has a cordiceps fungus taken hold or something?????? You're literally defending parasites??????? Like actual real parasites that do so much actual real damage to the bug community???????
✨ bald-face-beauty follow
You also do "so much real damage to the bug community" when you predate things lmao
💛 yellow-coat follow
not the parasitoid trying to say that PREDATION is problematic
✨ bald-face-beauty follow
I am literally a bald-faced hornet. And that wasn't the point i was trying to make anyways.
How is parasitism problematic when predation isn't?
🐛 kitty-pillar follow
Predation literally is problematic??????????????
✨ bald-face-beauty follow
please this isn't about that
🐛 kitty-pillar follow
How can this conversation not be about predation being problematic?
Do you have any idea what it's like to be terrified for your life every single fucking day? To know at any time that a bird or a lizard or even one of you could appear out of nowhere and fucking eat me? Do you have any fucking idea what that's like? Or are you so egocentric that you've never even thought about the fact that all the bugs you kill had lives and thoughts and feelings.
✨ bald-face-beauty follow
ok i'm turning off reblogs on this trainwreck of a post.
Do you ever think about all the plants you eat? Do you ever think about the fact that those plants feel pain? Do you ever think about the pain and suffering your existence has wrought upon the world? Of course not. Plants are beneath you.
Here's the thing, fucker: all life is lived at the expense of others. All of it. Even plants, who get all their food from the sun, grow over and poison each other to get ahead. There is no path to complete cruelty-free living. None. You cannot be alive without directly or indirectly harming something else.
What gives you the right to think you're better than us just because you hurt things that can't complain?

The last three poems on my blog have been insect/bug-related, which I suppose I have Tumblr to thank for.

How am I supposed to be the bigger person? I'm literally just a small guy who evolved to lay eggs on a very specific type of caterpillar
