I'm wasting my afternoon looking through the Encyclopedia Brittanica's list of insects to figure out my bug-sona

Love when a bug basically goes all in on one large feature. Introducing the Treehopper, who wanted to be a thorn when it grew up and is doing a great job
Oh, to be a whirlygig (diving) beetle, floating by surface tension and just zooming around in circles on the water all day.
Also they can scube dive.
Also, diving beetle larvae are called water tigers
I'm watching this show called MONSTER BUG WARS and they keep dubbing a non-specific herbivore dinosaur/large mammal roar when they show the rhinocerous beetle. I love it
TFW you're trying to find out what a Stag beetle eats, then you find out they basically don't.
They're the kind of bug that just gets real fat as a larva and survives on fat stores and fruit juice. #BugFacts
TIL: Elytra (you know, from Minecraft) is the name for the hardened fore-wings that you see on some species of bug and beetle. The part that you think of as their "shell" that gets deployed so they can fly with their hindwings.

alarmingly large glaceon girl 🍓@rockario does that mean steve alerady has wings, but has to augment his body to reveal them
@monorail I guess??
@monorail I mean, I guess it makes sense that they can only be used for gliding, it's just the outer shell of some extinct species of End beetle?
