Bugs with complete metamorphosis (beetles, butterflies, antlions, wasps) typically have 'grubs', while bugs with incomplete metamorphosis have 'baby bugs'. Examples include (but aren't limited to) mantises, crickets, roaches, stink bugs, stick bugs, and treehoppers

Most non-insect arthropods also have a baby stage, such as centipedes, spiders, lobsters, and isopods

the best death note joke format will forever be L asking light a simple question in which logical answer A might increase the likelihood of light being kira and logical answer B similarly might increase the likelihood of light being kira and after a short internal struggle light comes up with answer Y, which no human being has ever thought of as being a normal response in all of living history

girl who is so so scared all the time. girl who once passed as 'smart' but now finds it hard to think. girl who's always half lost because of memory issues and dissociation and trouble with inhabiting a physical space. girl who is a failure in a way that is neither interesting nor endearing.

hot take in a roundabout way i think that's also why so many of us opt out of becoming parents ourselves

[advanced-passenger-train]

Does anybody know how to fix it

[rosslynpaladin]

Start disappointing people and not backing out of it when they are upset, reject feeling ashamed of everything including of yourself, start saying No to things you do not want to do not just things you're scared of, do more of those things you're scared of but wish you could do, make your own plans and execute them, decide to do or not do something without basing it on who will Dislike it.

Free Will takes practice, and the chance of making someone somewhere Slightly or even Very Disappointed In You. But you're an adult and you can't be made to stand in a corner anymore.

anyway i love north korea and if you're a decent human being you should too btw

[calamity-corner]

every bad thing you've heard about north korea was pulled out of the asses of the western propaganda machine to discredit one of the few surviving examples of a communist state, propaganda driven principally by the united states, the country which absolutely ravaged north korea, the country which is to blame for a divided korea in the first place because the big bad powers at the UN decided that koreans weren't capable of self-governance after the removal of the japanese colonial occupation.

the korean war was dreadful for north korea and it is talked about so infrequently in the west as to be commonly referred to as "the forgotten war". the whole country was carpet bombed, nearly every major city, town, and village was destroyed, the US dropped more bombs on north korea than they dropped in WWII. millions of civilians were killed. south korea massacred hundreds of thousands of communists and sympathizers, many of them civilians, a war crime they then tried to cover up and blame on north korea anyway.

the amount these people and this country have suffered at the hands of western capitalism should itself earn them your love.

Me, trying to impress my date with a display of my boundless humility: I would like to order one single, solitary crumb.

Waitress taking my order: Such arrogance! Not only do you presume to boast under the guise of being humble, but your order employs the most decadent of linguistic excesses - the tautology!

My date, who until recently thought "tautology" referred to the study of tensile strengths and upon learning her mistake compensated by reading through its Wikipedia article: That would be more correctly identified as a "pleonasm".

The editor I hired to curate my posts who styles himself as a sort of scheming court advisor: My liege, this one is getting away from us. The punchline loses much of its impact when the rest of the joke is derailed by this increasingly self-indulgent meta humour. Were it up to me, your Grace, which of course it is not, I would cut the others and leave myself as the only supporting character. You need noone else, Your Majesty...
