My first official sighting. Late stage nymph. Spotted Lanternfly. We killed four of these today.
I reported the sighting to Maryland DNR.
If you see one of these or any at the other life stages, kill them on sight. They are extremely dangerous to our agriculture, wineries, and even native hardwoods.
Here's some more information on the Spotted Lanternfly:
this is Matty. he came into my house, filled the kitchen cabinets with dumpster candy, and then told me that he's better than me because he has "real testosterone", not like that "fake testosterone" that I got.
he also thinks that he knows where I work, in which case he's more than welcome to show up there and get his face stomped into the curb.
Is anyone else suddenly getting a lot of AI generated images with celebrities faces plastered on what looks kind of like plastic doll house scenes or over saturated 70s sets?
Because of this prior ask I was reminded that I drew some sketches in a sai file I named 'Bishop's first friends' aka the first actaul 'friends' or at least friendly flock members they make after their arrival but I think that file got banished when Arson corrupted so these are all I have left, sketches from december lmao
i've been so used to the online space where if you like a series or fictional character that someone else hates they will openly berate you and cut you out of their life and tell you to Go Die so when i got into a thing that a friend really didn't like and their only reaction was "i do not like it" and left it at that with no over the top reaction or lecture on Why The Thing They Don't Like Is Bad, honestly i felt like i met god
Every person that's like eww bugs are disgusting and should be killed except pink moths/pink mantises/lady bugs or whatever is now going to be forcibly housed with a giant whip scorpion as a roomate and they will learn to like it
