Today, for a brief second, I thought of a life without Roger. It was much like my current life, except that this forum was a bit nicer.

I'm pretty ok with it being criminal, most of the criminals I've met have been really nice to me.

It's getting dark soon, I wonder if the thing becomes obsessed with screens like normal people.

I just realised my landlord promised to pay me a visit this moth and I'm still not allowed to have pests...

Maybe it can be trained. How hard can it be to syntethize butterfly pheromones? I have access to wide array of chemicals through my school.

Two vast and trunkless legs of stone / Butterfly defect
February 07, 2020, 01:35:32 PM
I've been dreaming about having a butterfly farm in my balcony. The idea hit me late autumn, so first time to test if it's a viable dream, or if I get bored and move on as fast as from everything else I ever do is still many months ahead. That feels weird considering the timescales I'm used to playing with.

I find growing butterflies attractive because:

1) it helps with my anxiety about the whole climate catastrophe, bugs dying, nazi zombies thing that has been going on lately, because it would be a slight breeze in to right direction instead of getting a job and bunch of other future tasks too complex to know what direction it tips the scale. Everybody always focus on bees as pollinators cause they got honey that can be put in a jar and sold. Adopting caterpillars is so easy everybody can do it!

2) I love the possibility of brag about being behind all the climate catastrophes, since math doesn't lie. Every butterfly I ring to existence will do huge amount of wingflapping before kicking the bucket. So I have dibs to every major climate catastrophe in Australia.


ANYWAY...

It is certainly not a summer yet, and I wasn't supposed post about the thing before getting shit done with the project, BUT. Something wonderful happened.

From under my sofa flies a fucking peacock butterfly and starts bashing it's head against the glass. I have no clue where the thing came from, I just know it's great and adorable and I wanna keep it as pet forever.

Head bashing intensifies. It really seems to want to go outside... I try to explain to the bug that it's very cold and windy in there, and the poor bastard would probably die. No effect.

After a while it stops and rests for a while, I try to offer it an appleslice, because I red from the internet they might eat that. Nope, more head bashing. It has been now doing that on off for hours, and I wonder what I should do. Will it learn the wonders of glass panels? Is not doing anything sadistic? Should I try to feed it more? Or try to move it to balcony where it can do the sleeping through winter thing and have a possibility to see it's friends before it inevitably dies? Will it even survive that?

It's enough work to look after myself, bring forth your best butterfly experts

Was there death before birth?

You say that like there weren't a line of people behind them waiting for their chance to convert their morals into dollars.

As with the nukes, point of limiting any tech feels like being more about giving the bullies an edge, rather than keeping everyone safe.

Gosh I sound like a fucking libertarian, someone fuck me and m opinion up.

PREPARE FOR ELDRITCH MEAT BLOBS!

Sciencealert isn't about science.

It will never break my heart again.
I actually found this in a popsci youtube video, and picked a random source to repost. I don't know shit about journalism, how do I know which ones are up to par?

It's 2020 and anarchism is now all about getting addicted to drugs and having to sell your bumhole cheaper and cheaper until you are completely free.

Give it treats when it fucks up someone elses shit.

I hate it when old things disguise as new things. Makes finding the next step sooo annoying.

Bloodborne is officially awesome. Never before has a videogame made me to do dishes to feel like somewhat capable being.

So that's where all the winter went...

e: looking at the weather maps makes me think that the denialists bought all the cold air from europe.

I've been stuck inside my flat since last friday waiting for a replacement key. Amount of boring is very therapeutic.
