TIL some bacteria can form structures that blur the lines between unicellular colonies and multicellular organisms, complete with the specialization of simple tissues. 🤯

A request was made for me to post any cute centipedes I might know of.

Centipedes pretty much all fall under a “sleek and lethal” aesthetic but to me one of the cutest things of all is when a tough fierce predator gets gentle and protective. A mother centipede will stay wrapped around her eggs and babies not only to keep parasites at bay but to hold them up off of the ground and keep them clean of any fungi or bacterial infections! Some studies find that if the babies are already hatched, the whole family will scatter and fend for themselves when disturbed (such as by a huge human uncovering them), so the babies don’t “need” the mother’s protection, but she’ll still hold onto them for a long time if she can. Every extra day that they get a little more time to grow under her watch probably makes a difference.

theres a guy living on our hammock

he made the shittiest little web ever in that black pole. yesterday he tried to catch 2 bugs (an aphid i think and one of those little red mites) and failed to get either of them. he will not stop falling off the hammock and i think hes aware of this bc he has a thread attached to him at all times, like a bungee cord. hes the creature ever.

hes also very nice and he keeps trying to get on my hand but i dont want to let him until i know hes not venomous so im gonna ask @onenicebugperday. do you know what type of guy this goober is. i already know hes a jumping spider bc of the autism stare btw

Almost all spiders are venomous. But 99% are not harmful to humans. This fella is just a harmless lil male jumping spider. No jumping spiders are dangerous :)

Look at this dummy have a TERRIBLE time

a bombardier beetle’s spray isn’t just smelly and bitter like a skunk but comes out momentarily boiling hot. Even I can’t believe something so different from a human has the same exact response to this that we would.

theropoda

ok so apparently the you got your menstrual period notif is from a romance mod (that i actually remember downloading back in the day) where you can get impregnated by an npc and the fetus is an item in your fucking inventory and if you take the fetus from your inventory and drop them in the environment you will die of a miscarriage. okay
