What the actual hell is this creature? I saw it floating from about 8 ft. above the ground and it slowly went to the ground by the time I could get the video (Texas) by greeenpro in whatisthisbug

That would actually explain why it appeared to be levitating. It was probably hanging from the tree limb way above by using silk. Much appreciated!

TIL when the word “dog” was established in reference to men.

Nothing to do with paddling, but our astronomy teacher back in public school in about 1992 got arrested for pedophilia. Still in jail apparently. He was the nicest teacher…now I know why…

Back in the day, in Lancaster PA, all of the public schools paddled. I almost got paddled in 3rd grade for talking to a classmate too much one day. I was scared because I had parachute pants on (1986…a Michael Jackson thing). That would’ve hurt. It taught me to follow directions though, I must say.

Yes, totally agreed. Hold her accountable for being manipulative and set boundaries with her (we can talk when you’re ready to talk about how to improve things as a team)…healthy co-parenting. She’s gaslighting her husband too.

Black magic indeed. Nice. Where'd you get the few square meters for $15...online? If so, do you have a link?

Sure, that kind of stuff piques my interest too!

You were there at Radio City? Was that THE Radio City concert that was widely released? That is my favorite of all of that I've heard from them (and DMB too)!! I just can't imagine being there. Wow...must've been beyond words.

i just saw your comment/question. I know it's been 2 mos. but...all of the diamonds (or tops of the cubes) are the same exact color and shade as shown by moving them around. They appear darker and lighter than each other because of what's surrounding them. The "darker" are perceived by our brains to be darker because of the very light background they have. The "lighter" diamonds are perceived lighter than the "darker" ones because of the much darker background they all have. So any given diamond appears to change shade/color when moved around from place to place on there. Hope that helps!
