This is a type of crane fly which is one of the species that falls under the daddy/granddaddy longleg category. It looks like a tipula maxima to me, but the photo is old, so I can't be sure. Now you may be looking at this little one thinking "isn't that just a mosquitoe" which is fair as they look very similar. The easiest way to tell the difference between a crane fly and mosquitoe is that crane flies are bigger with long legs and straight bodies. The reason crane flies and mosquitoes look so similar is because they both belong to the Order Diptera(true flies) and Phylum Arthropoda.

LITTLE COMIC based on how I made a friend at 1 am while crawling on the ground, picking up Maybugs to save them from getting squished by cars.

PRETTY SURE I must've looked like a strange little gremlin to any onlookers passing by. Also yes he held a bug like a CHAMP. He passed my test. We still hang out 😂

For the record I think Vox is being effected and possibly swayed by Val’s poison just like Angel is, the pink signifying it on Angel shows up on Voxs screen during and after interacting and being influenced by Val directly, when Vox is operating independently it isn’t an actual normal feature of his

This paired with an earlier moment from episode 2 when Val first mentioned something had happened with Angel Dust, Vox seemed happy about the idea of Angel quitting

“He quit? :D”

It’s interesting for sure, makes me wonder what Vox actually thinks about Angel, and more importantly, actually thinks about Valentino. He’s a business man, and clearly the Vees all teamed up (at least initially) because it helps elevate their status and power spread, they may be friendly with each other but we as an audience don’t actually know if there’s more to it as of now. But still, interesting

I just realized I've like never posted my insect collection on here! Unfortunately it fell of the wall a few days ago (I'm pretty sure one of my cats tried to climb on it because it was admittedly too close to their cat tree) and the frame broke. The only bug that was really damaged was my luna moth. Anyway I bought most of the insects online and pinned them myself but like three of them I found already dead and in incredible condition so I did literally pick them up off the sidewalk and pin them. Hoping I can repair and add to it soon💖

(Tagging @onenicebugperday I love your blog❣️🪲)
