Convergent evolution has got to be the coolest shit in biology, it's ceaselessly fascinating

but also evolution can be fucking horrifying: barnacles are crustaceans, slice them in half and you see a twisted gross crablike thing inside the shell.

And lobsters are scorpion mermaids.

While nobody is looking Hummingbird Moth is making a speed run to crab.

i want to live in a world where all insects ended up fluffy and cute like these moths and bumblebees are.

Be careful of the monkey's paw.

Remember to move hornworms to your non-production/trap tomatoes to see more of them!

I wonder how they taste sautéed in butter and garlic…
