INSULINDIAN PHASMID - That must be incredibly hard. The arthropods are in silent and meaningless awe of you. Know that we are watching -- when you're tired, when the vision spins out of control. The insects will be looking on. Rooting for you.

Trilobites had many lifestyles: some moved over the ocean bed as predators, scavengers or filter feeders & some swam, feeding on plankton. Most lifestyles expected of modern marine arthropods are seen in trilobites, with the possible exception of parasitism.

tumblr discourse cycles always end up landing on like the most over simplified versions of things… it’s going through like a protect bugs wave whixh is great but it occasionally turns into Americans/canadians browbeating people who live in areas with tropical diseases about not liking mosquitoes

no Cenobites partying on our street this year. they're cyclical, I hear, some kind of once-a-decade thing.
so yeah, there's only the usual agonised screaming. which is good, we could all use a break.
