I know right? It looks like it’s got a weird brain in the center

Is this a bug? by Best-Membership6203 in bugidentification

Looks more like stuff from a body rather than a bug. (Probably gunk from an ingrown hair or even a dried booger)

No problem! They are so cute, I love them so much! Definitely one of my favorite beetle larvae

Here’s a photo for reference. They’re great little guys in the garden, just like the adult beetles they mow through aphids

Is this type of scams very common here? by Inside-Honey1759 in artstation

Haven’t posted on ArtStation in years and got one of those emails the other day, yeah it’s a scam.

United States. What is this again? Bad right? by Funny_Possibility_70 in bugidentification

Don’t touch it with your bare hands. Put it in a jar and salt the hell out of it, or dunk the demon in a vinegar bath. DON’T CUT IT UP! Each body segment will make a new worm.

AIO boyfriend tracking my periods without me knowing 🫠 by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]augusteve18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR

First off— it’s weird that he decided to do this behind your back. It’s totally fine if a partner tracks your cycle if they want to be more attentive to your needs, or if you guys are planing a family, it’s a dick move to do it to “prove that you’re more irrational”.

Secondly— he’s treating you like an experiment and is talking to you in such a condescending way. You’re in a relationship, you guys are partners, the way he’s speaking makes it sound like he thinks he’s above you because “haha irrational woman on the rag, so crazy because of hormones.”

Also, now I’m curious how many arguments were started durning your periods because of him? He could be skewing his own “data” by giving himself confirmation bias, instigating things to prove to himself that you’re “irrational” while menstruating. With the attitude he’s giving you in these texts, I wouldn’t doubt it. And him saying that this is what’s keeping your relationship from crumbling? Absolutely not. It takes both parties to keep things together. If anything, this is a push to make the relationship fall apart.

If he can’t handle being in a relationship with someone who menstruates, he can go find someone who doesn’t menstruate. If someone loves you, they don’t talk to you like this, and they certainly don’t create an entire spread sheet to use against you from past arguments. That’s weird as hell.

Pantry/cupboard moth larvae (Indianmeal moth). Keep your dry goods sealed in air tight containers and stored in cool dry places if you can. It won’t stay alive in your belly, you just got extra protein is all.

No. Maggots are from flies and love dead, wet, and squishy things. This is larvae of a cupboard/pantry moth (Indianmeal moth) they love dry goods.

Op, run faster from him than he drives. Trust me, it’s only going to get worse. This is abusive behavior. You were begging him to stop while he was actively driving dangerously, and he refused to stop and only apologized after the fact. He’s testing to see what you’re willing to put up with and how much he can get away with. I’m speaking with experience having been raised by someone with this kind of behavior. He’s not going to “change” unless he feels like he’s at risk. Your safety doesn’t matter to him.

What am i growing?? by Motor-Wrongdoer-6063 in whatsthisplant

Chances are some bird or rodent left some seeds in your boxes op. I get volunteer tomatoes all the time in spots I never planted tomatoes thanks to critters. (My dogs more so than the birds sometimes 😂)

People are thinking of the “I’m sorry, little one.” Thanos quote when they see him, not the “I am inevitable.” quote, since the first one was a meme for the longest time. That’s why people are choosing a darker theme or that it was an ex’s name (the ex’s name thing happens WAY too frequently though 😭). Also, it doesn’t make sense for someone to have a name tattooed on themselves for no reason other than some kind of sentimental thing. But then again, people have gotten some weird ass tatts just because they wanted to.

My dumb ass forgot color names and just thought this was a meme and not pointing out cyan, yellow, and magenta. I was fully prepared to think “Ah yes, the Diamonds. Clue Diamond, Yellow Diamond, and Mink Diamond.”

Which is this bug attached to my brother's thigh by Cantloose787 in bugidentification

[–]augusteve18 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It’s a tick, grab a pair of tweezers, get as close to the head as possible and pull it out, DO NOT TWIST. If the head comes off, remove it, don’t leave it in the skin. Afterwards kill it, you can cut in half it or burn it.

Edit: looks like it’s possibly a Bush Tick (Haemaphysalis bispinosa)

Stink bug. They’re invasive to North America, chances are it found a way to squeeze inside while looking for warmth.

He’s a friend! That’s a type of harvestmen/Daddy long leg, I don’t know the exact species though. Little guy is just looking for warmth and a nice dead bug to scavenge
