I won't unsee that for a while.The insect world is true horror.
Today I learned that we could have dunked the Glazers into water and be rid of them.
That's the reason you dont see them in Manchester.
Yeah, no.
Amazon jungle: Man survived 31 days by eating worms
A Bolivian man has described how he managed to survive for 31 days in the Amazon jungle after he got lost.
Jhonattan Acosta, 30, got separated from his four friends while out hunting in northern Bolivia.
He says he drank rainwater collected in his shoes and ate worms and other insects while hiding from jaguars and peccaries, a type of pig-like mammal.
Incredible.

Yeah those are amazing. The bait fish grouping together to increase their odds of survival. Sharks, dolphins and other predators picking them off and sometimes even a whale showing up to finish the show.

This is a brilliant photo.
Probably should have thanked mister hippo for helping out.
Ah, new fear unlocked. Thanks.
Nope...
I mean it's all completely horrendous but the person 40 seconds in is not of sound mind.
Five planets to line up in night sky
Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Uranus, Mars, and the Moon will align in an arc across the evening sky on Monday, with some visible to the naked eye.
This is often called "a planetary parade" and will be visible after sunset in the west.
A good view of the horizon and clear skies will offer the best chance of spotting the alignment.

Perfect conditions for opening up a portal to another dimension of the cosmic horror variety if you ask me.
Not even sure it should go in here as it's in captivity but Stoffel is a legend.
Thanks, I hate it.

I believe they also give off more odour when stressed.
I've tested this in the past by shit talking my mom's seedlings and noting that their odour increased as my statements got meaner.
I was just reading that a tornado in Illinois caused the roof to collapse at a Morbid Angel gig, one dead so far and several injured. One of several tornados in different parts apparently.
Absolutely not…
Apologies if previously posted.
Were the sound FX really necessary? Some of us are wearing headphones, FFS.
We underrate how capable and competent our ancestors were. If it wasn't slavery, we'd probably have flying cars, sustainable clean affordable energy and all sorts now.
After the pyramids, does anyone know what the first tallest man made structure was? (I’ll reply with the answer tomorrow).
I would never have guessed it. Cool little bit of trivia.
Eiffel Tower
Yea exactly - it just shows how advanced the ancient Egyptians were that they were able to build a structure that is still standing and the next man made structure that beat it (height wise) came thousands of years later.
