It's not at all unusual in the insect kingdom for the adults to be All About Teh Sex... and nothing more. Mayflies, for instance.
Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

Earless dragons and mouth less moths, they fight crime?
I am confused why my alarm did not go off. Woke up at 9am. My phone had turned itself off, I think-- I thought maybe I hadn't plugged it in right and it ran out of battery, but no, it is at 99%. WTF, phone??

Yeah, the domesticated silk moth cannot have sex w/o human intervention because the males don't fly and the whole silk moth technique is for the females to wait for the males to approach them.
(There are domestic/wild hybrids - basically the wild dudes fly to the domestic females and because the domestic males don't fly there aren't any hybrids that are domestic male/wild female crosses.)

meara, I nearly got run over twice by asshole drivers this morning and my phone decided to freeze as I was trying to turn off a podcast, so I think it's going to be one of those days.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
So should I have Cauliflower soup:
A sublty textured cream soup with cauliflower, celery, and onions, blended with cheeses for a favorable flavor combination.
or Roast Turkey
Oven roasted turkey complimented with a side of stuffing
today. I love the descriptions on our website. I could also have pecan pie: Mammoth toasted pecan halves in an intoxicating filling, laced with Kentucky Bourbon.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Dang, Sophia, I think I would have to get both! (I am pretty hungry right now, though.) If I had to choose, I'd go with the soup.
And then pie.

Soup then pie - if a 3 course lunch is not an option.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
This capsule principle seems familiar--I'm sure I've read something like it as packing advice. I'm tempted to pull one out of my closet and experiment with it for a while, but that involves motivation and energy--both of which evade me greatly at the moment.

Our wings are not tired.
That soup sounds good although I am full from the avocado roll and blackberries I just downed.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I'm not a fan of cooked cauliflower, but the turkey just seems too heavy for spring.
