I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Hanging-thief giving herself a wash on my hand, these guys are the coolest and I say that about all critters but cmon. They get their name from the way they hang off objects and hold their prey, that’s rad as hell.

(I swear to Christ I'll be blocking fools for garbage comments about these creatures. I know what they are. Move along if your only thought is disgust)

why are there so many dead flies and also alive flies appearing in the house when it's minus degrees below friz outside and the house is clean and I don't think there's fly food hiding anywhere??? do old buildings just come with a free supply of flies??
Edit: It's not A Lot all at once, it's been maybe 2-4 a week for several weeks.

hi neil, i hope you're doing well!!
just rewatched season 2 for the fifth time and i have a quick question:
when crowley and jim were talking about gravity, there was a fly, right? crowley saw the fly because he remarked on how it doesn't follow gravity rules. why didn't he even find the fly sliightly suspicious?
he knew that beelzebub thought aziraphale was involved, so i'm wondering why he didn't even consider the fact that the fly may have even been a spy for hell?
thank you for everything!
He thought it was a fly. Just as, perhaps, you did on your first watch.

Uncharismatic Fact of the Day
As tasty as we humans might seem to some species of mosquito, there are many other species that simply aren't interested in us! For example, the mosquito Uranotaenia sapphirina much rather prefers the taste of worms and leeches, and can be found using their long proboscises to probe the ground for a potential meal.

Why is no one talking about how right after using the book as a fly swat Gabriel goes “oh but I know what you’re thinking! Don’t worry it never actually works”
He thinks everyone is worried about the flies!!! He thinks everyone is worried about the flies because he is worried about the flies!!!! He is worried about the flies because they remind him of Beelzebub!!! He doesn’t even remember who Beelzebub is but he remembers that he would never want to hurt one of their flies!!!! He thinks everyone else feels the same way about flies that he does!!!
Every time I rewatch this season I notice something that makes me want to throw myself into traffic.

Long before time had a name, Ninjago was created by the First Spinjitzu Master, using the Four Weapons of Spinjitzu. The Scythe of Quakes, the Nunchucks of Lightning, the Shurikens of Ice and the Sword of Fire. Weapons so powerful, no one can handle all of their power at once! When he passed away, his two sons swore to protect them, but the oldest was consumed by darkness and wanted to possess them. A battle between brothers broke out, and the oldest was struck down and banished to the Underworld. Peace returned, and the younger brother hid the weapons, but knowing his older brother's relentless ambition for power, he placed a guardian to protect them. And for fear of his own demise, a map for an honest man to hide. That honest man was your father. The older brother is Lord Garmadon, and I... need to find those weapons before he does.

How about a gall fly (Eurosta species?) who seems to be a jumping spider mimic, with a set of large false "eyes" on the back of the thorax?👀 Very fierce (from the back), perpetually blowing raspberries on the front side.
