Do you have any cool bug facts on Weevils?? They are my favorite at the moment!!

Thanks for the question! And I certainly do! I was in the middle of writing a post about bearded weevils (Rhinostomus barbirostris), and I opened a new tumblr tab to check the tags of my other posts, and I saw this!

🤗💖

I suppose I'll just copy and paste what I was writing over here.

✨ cool bug facts's ✨

Rhinostomus barbirostris, or the Bearded weevil!

😳Why he looks like 🦧 👨‍🦰

😍The anatomy of these TOTALLY TUBULAR Ronald weevilys!!😍

They are classified as true weevils. Weevils can either be Curculionidae - True weevils, or Belidae - Primitive weevils. The difference between them being that true weevils have an elbow-like bend in their antennae, while primitive weevils have straight antennae, because straight people are primitive.

The males have orange bristles on their snout, making the appearance of a red beard.

They are the third largest species of weevil in the world.

They have sexual polymorphism, rather than dimorphism, meaning the males can have the characteristics of a female, with the only way to properly tell them apart being the facial hair. The females, on the other hand, can't take the appearance of males.

Diet.

The larvae eat the wood and roots of coconut trees and oil palms.

The adults eat coconuts and whatever grows on oil palms.

Behavior.

They are very attracted to light, and are often found under peoples porchlights.

The feminine looking males, while looking for a mate, will sneak past the other fighting males, who think they are a random female, and therefore do not see them as competition, allowing for them to breed with the female they were fighting over. (Although, what happens if a different male thinks they're more attractive than the actual female?)

Habitat.

While their main homes are on coconut trees and oil palms, they can be found on most species of Arecaceae, or palm trees.

They are found in most places in Central and South America.

Endangerment.

Like most weevils, humans tend to exterminate them due to their feasting on things that humans also like to eat. Unlike a lot of other weevils, though, they feed on things that aren't considered to be crops.

Humans might also exterminate them due to their carrying of diseases to palm trees, such as resinosis, or stem bleeding, and red ring disease, which is a very harmful disease to oil palms that tends to cause little leaf syndrome (As the name implies, it is a syndrome where the leaves shrink down to an abnormally small size.), this effects more than 15% of oil palms in commercial plantations.

Sorry for taking so long to answer! (I think, I'm not sure what the average answering time is.)

I might have to do one of weevils in general, similar to my one about stag beetles, as they are very cool bug's, but it was difficult to find information about just this species, so I'd imagine I could give many more fact's if I did weevils as a whole.

[ID: Digital artwork mainly featuring the Mob Psycho 100 character cast. The 1st three images have seven characters re-imagined as real world insects, with Mob and Ritsu both being black carpenter ants, Reigen being a red weaver ant mimic spider, Teru a golden carpenter ant, Serizawa a big headed ant, Tome a green leaf weevil, and Dimple a crypt keeper wasp. The first two drawings are nearly identical, with a slight difference in background color and text listing the character’s names and species, while the third is a doodle page with the cast getting into various insect shenanigans. These doodles include a Reigen screenshot redraw, a potato beetle going to Reigen for parasatoid guidance, Mob and Reigen facing a death ant spiral, Ritsu trying to convince Mob that Reigen isn’t actually an ant, Tome dreaming about contacting jellyfish, Reigen and Serizawa mixing up ant social cues, and Reigen admitting to Mob that he isn’t an ant. The 4th and 5th drawings are of the artist drawn in the Mob Psycho 100 anime artstyle, showcasing a light-skinned man/woman with shoulder length brown hair, a beard stubble, tie, and bug cage in left hand. Once again, both images resemble each other with only a background color and psychic aura difference. The final drawing features Mob resembling Spongebob and Dimple resembling Gary the snail, each labeled “SpongeMob” and “Gimple” respectively, while an opaque drawing of Reigen as Mr. Krabs vibrates in the background. End ID]

I feel like Engineer, if you take his goggles off at least, DOES fit the bill for conventionally attractive but like, regionally conventionally attractive Yknow?

Talk Like a Grizzled Prospector Day

Talk Like a Grizzled Prospector Day commemorates the start of the California Gold Rush, which began on January 24, 1848, when James Marshall discovered gold while building a saw mill for John Sutter, near what is now Coloma, California. The day has its roots in International Talk Like a Pirate Day, and was inspired by Prospectors Day, which was once held at Knott's Berry Farm each year on January 24. It also was inspired by an episode of the Simpsons with the following exchange:

Bart: That ain't been popular since aught-six, dagnabbit. Homer: Bart, what did I tell you? Bart: No talking like a grizzled 1890's prospector, consarn it.

Common examples of characters talking like grizzled prospectors in popular culture include Dallas McKennon narrating Disneyland's Mine Train Thru Nature's Wonderland and Big Thunder Mountain, Gabby Hayes—both drunk and sober—in many Western films, Gabby Johnson in Blazing Saddles, Will Ferrell as Gus Chiggins on Saturday Night Live, and Walter Huston in The Treasure of Sierra Madre.

Prospectors first came to the Sacramento Valley after Marshall found flakes of gold in the American River near Sutter's Mill, at the base of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. At the time there were less than 1,000 non-native inhabitants in California. Newspapers began reporting the discovery of gold, and by August, 4,000 miners had descended on the area. The first people that came from outside of the territory came by boat, and arrived from Oregon, the Sandwich Islands—soon to be called the Hawaiian Islands, Mexico, Peru, China, and Chili.

In December 1848, President James K. Polk announced a report by Colonel Richard Mason which spoke of the abundance of gold in California; this prompted more prospectors to travel to the territory. Throughout 1849, thousands arrived, either traveling by sea or over land, and became known as '49ers. Mining towns popped up in the area, and with them came shops, saloons, and brothels. Many mining towns became lawless, and San Francisco became an important city in the territory. By the end of 1849, the non-native population had swelled to 100,000. The Gold Rush helped California gain statehood in 1850, and gold discovery peaked in the state in 1852. In all, more than 750,000 pounds of gold were extracted during the Gold Rush.

The implication of a grizzled prospector is of one who has stayed so long searching for gold that their hair has turned gray. Some prospectors refused to quit the profession and continued to live in the Western territories. So, when Bart Simpson mentioned a grizzled prospector from the 1890s, he was referring to a prospector that had stayed more than forty years after the Gold Rush happened, still trying to find gold, or other commodities such as silver, oil, radium, and uranium. Besides a gray beard, the stereotypical grizzled prospector had faded clothes, missing teeth, a pickaxe, and a mule. They had bouts of gold fever, and were suspicious of whoever came close to their claim.

How to Observe Talk Like a Grizzled Prospector Day

Celebrate the day talking like a grizzled prospector. Here are a few words prospectors commonly used, that you could use today:

Dadburn: to curse; e.g.: "Dadburned boll weevil done 'et my crop!"

Hornswoggle: to embarrass, disconcert, or confuse; e.g.: "I'll be hornswaggled!"

Consarn: the entirety of something, also a curse word.

Dumbfungled: all used up; e.g.: "This claim is dumbfungled! There's no gold left!"

Bonanza: a mine with lots of gold.

Borrasca: a mine with no gold.

Baby buggy: wheel barrow.

Muck: to dig with a shovel.

Powder monkey: a miner who used dynamite to make holes.

Johnny Newcome: a miner new to camp.

Blackjack and saw bosom: coffee and bacon.

Paydirt: land rich in gold.

Panned out: if they had found gold while sifting through dirt with a mining pan, then things had "panned out."

Flash in the pan: something shiny in pan that turned out to be nothing, or just a small piece of gold.

Stake a claim: claim a piece of land as your own as a place to search for gold, must stake the land with wooden stakes when you arrive.

The day could also be spent watching films such as The Treasure of Sierra Madre, or old Western films starring Gabby Hayes. A visit to the Sutter's Mill replica and the Gold Discovery and Visitor Center in Marshall Gold Discovery State Park could also be planned. The days' Facebook page could also be explored.

Dark Sparks - Dark Souls Bug AU

Okay, I have no idea if this has already been done (and I mean Hollow Knight is basically this anyway) but I just felt inspired by seeing artists and writers come up with AUs for some of their favorite IPs. With that little disclaimer out of the way, here’s my idea.

A long time ago in a distant forest, there lived great and powerful lizards. These lizards were masters of the forest, and lived so long that many believed they were immortal. If the insect denizens of the forest ever stepped out of line, the lizards were quick to eat them. Because of this, most of the insects lived beneath the forest. Then one day while burrowing tunnels, some of the insects discovered the First Flame deep below the world’s crust. Great sparks from the fire brought with it power and wisdom, raising the tiny insects up from what they once were. These insects were known as the Beetles.

Lord Gwyn (Firefly): Also known as the Lord of Sunlight, he was a king of the underground and had many loyal beetles under his rule, including his army of stag beetle knights. The power of his Lord Spark gave him the ability to manipulate light, as well as channel bolts of lightning he would later use to smite the lizards.

The Witch of Izalith (Bombardier Beetle): She and her sisters gained power over a burning caustic substance similar to the First Flame with their shared Lord Spark. Joining the war against the lizards, they weaved great firestorms to strike down the lizards and burn their homes. When the First Flame began to falter, the Witch of Izalith tried to make a new flame using her Lord Spark, but something went wrong, and she birthed the Arachnids of Chaos into the world. It is said that these arachnids still haunt the old tunnels beneath the trees.

Nito (Carrion Beetle): Once an ordinary beetle, he gained power over death and decomposition with his Lord Spark. His miasma proved to be the killing blow on the lizards, and after the war, he and the rest of the dead found a gigantic corpse of unknown origin which they buried and hollowed out. This corpse would later become known as the Tomb of the Giants.

Seath the Scaleless (Bearded Dragon): An outcast among lizard-kind, Seath was born without scales and envied his brethren. When he heard of the newly empowered beetles, he betrayed his people and told Lord Gwyn of his kind’s weakness to lightning. For aiding in the war, Lord Gwyn granted Seath a piece of his Lord Spark and made him a duke. Seath would later become a scholar and become increasingly isolated in his library...

The Furtive Weevil: This lowly beetle nurtured his Lord Spark while the others fought the lizards. He would later split his Lord Spark into countless pieces, raising up countless other insects that would collectively become known as the Swarm. Despite being a type of beetle, weevils would later be considered separate from other beetles (and thus not part of the ruling class) due to the Furtive Weevil’s lack of participation in the war.

After defeating the lizards, Lord Gwyn ushered in the Age of Fire. The beetles left their underground homes and climbed up the trees of the forest where they built great kingdoms under the sun. Ages past them by and before long the First Flame began to dwindle once more, so Lord Gwyn sacrificed himself to the flame to prolong the end of his era. It was clear, however, that this too would not last forever, so a plan was hatched to push other insects towards the First Flame as a source of fuel in order to keep the Age of Fire from ending. A primordial serpent (blind skinks) by the name of Kingseeker Frampt would aid this plan while another serpent named Darkstalker Frampt who act behind the scenes, doing what he could to usher in the Age of Dark. Meanwhile, a strange curse began to arise amongst the other insects where if one were to die, they would simply get back up later. However the more they died, the more a strange fungus-like growth would take over their body, eventually turning them into mindless undead insects. This process would become known as going hollow, for at the end stage of the curse, it seemed as if the insect were nothing but a hollow corpse that the curse fungus controlled. No one knows where the curse or the fungus came from, but as the First Flame grew weaker, the curse grew stronger. Slowly but surely, this brought the world the beetles and other insects knew to ruin.

A lone insect with signs of the curse was trapped within a great prison known as the Insect Asylum, along with other hollow insects. Freed from their cell by another insect, they would later escape the asylum with the aid of a raven and pursue a prophecy that would require them to ring two bells and ascend to a kingdom under the sun. Would the Age of Fire continue, or would the flame finally die out, ushering in the Age of Dark? Only the Chosen Insect would know for certain.

The World

The AU takes place in a vast forest where insect people have built cities made of rocks, sticks, silk, and other natural materials, all along the branches of trees. Anor Londo is a famous city that was built on the very top of one of the trees - or so they say. Beetles are considered among the ruling class, and they’ve even enslaved non-insect creatures that they’ve used for labor, warriors, and other roles. The characters and enemies you encounter are primarily different types of insects, but just about any creature you could find living in tree tops could be encountered. Demons, unsurprisingly, are themed after different types of arachnids, such as spiders and scorpions. I’d like to imagine the Centipede Demon in this case would be an arachnid creature that has somehow fused with centipede people to become a truly abhorrent abomination.

Bonfires are scattered all throughout the world, like normal. Resting at one is said to stave off the effects of the curse. You can kindle them with what I’ll call a swarm shard, which is a wisp of inky darkness that looks like it’s comprised of countless tiny insects. Rather than look like a beef jerky zombie after you die, your body gradually looks like it’s being taken over by a strange fungus which is worming its way through you from within. Using a swarm shard at a bonfire somehow burns away this fungus, effectively curing you of your infection until you die again and the infection has the chance to spread once more. Rather than collect souls, you collect sparks, which are warm wisps of physical light that all insect-kind covet. Lord Sparks, in this case, are especially powerful sparks that came from the First Flame and empowered insects such as Gwyn, making those who possess them effectively deities compared to other insects.

Overall, the world, mechanics, and characters are similar to Dark Souls, with the main part of the AU being about bug people, fungal insect zombies, and a strange tree top world with a similar vibe to Lordran but scaled down. Humanity translate to swarmlings, which are various types of insects separate from the beetles (with weevils being considered swarmlings for lore reasons mentioned above). The bug people are vaguely anthropomorphic but no obvious human features could be seen on characters. They’re still just as intelligent and capable of speech, though (as all animals would be in this setting). I’d also like to imagine that in a world like this, metal generally isn’t a thing so stuff like weapons and armor are made out of other natural materials such as wood, stone, chitin, animal bone, and stuff like that. Because characters are various types of insects, I feel like that should extend to the MC, so a “chosen insect” could a moth, ant, weevil, bee, or things like that.

Example Characters

Crestfallen Warrior: A lowly wheat weevil that has given up hope. Offers good advice but mocks your journey. Despite appearing quite ordinary, this weevil seems to know a great deal about the world and certain insects, so it proves worthwhile to visit him every so often, and he becomes much friendlier after you give him a gift of grain.

Petrus of Thorolund: A cleric awaiting other members of his church, the Way of White. Members of this church are primarily ants and are considered followers of Lord Gwyn, and Petrus introduces you to this covenant and can even teach you miracles. However, you can’t help but feel something is off about him. After discovering he betrayed Reah of Thorolund (an ant priestess), you learn Petrus isn’t an ant at all, but rather an ant-mimicking fly (Sepsisoma).

Solaire of Astora: A friendly eastern tent caterpillar man who wears a sun emblem over his armor. He seems fascinated with the sun and can often be found in brightly lit areas basking in its rays, though he can also be found in silk tents taking a break from questing. If you save him later and help him complete his quest, he cocoons himself and emerges as a beautiful moth.

Lautrec of Karim: A wasp man wearing unusual but brilliant golden armor that matches his black and yellow carapace. Found in a lonely prison cell along your path to the first bell, he seems standoffish, but still offers you aid against certain bosses. He can typically be found sitting across Anastacia of Astora, a strangely quiet cicada woman who appears to have had her wings plucked. One day you find him missing and Anastacia dead, prompting you to seek him out...

I think I decided on everyone’s camp names for the camp maggot setting, although I don’t know what to do with this information. I went with more traditional naturey nicknames mostly.

No idea if I’ll actually write a story with this setting but it’s fun to daydreamb. For those keeping track

Summary: Sweet Pea (Sid), Gecko (Joey), Piglet (Paul), Bug (Chris), Biscuit (Jim), Cricket (Craig), Moose (Shawn), Bubbles (Mick), Tigger (Corey) Blossom (Alessandro), Juju (Jay), Slinky (Michael)

Gecko & Slinky work in Climb

Bug & Juju work in Arts and Crafts

Biscuit & Bubbles work in Camping

Moose & Blossom work in Nature

Piglet works in Paddle

Cricket works in Archery

Tigger works in Swimming

Loose reasoning/inspo:

Sid: Sports (nn Sweet Pea)

I think it was Ross (?) who said something like that Sid puts an ‘amazingly sweet vibe into every room’. Of course he’s a sweetpea.

Joey: Climbing (nn Gecko)

I was thinking of cresties because there’s a black/red variant (more orangey tho) and they have cute, grippy little paws. They could probably hold tiny drumsticks. Plus in this setting obviously they’re good at climbing.

Paul: Paddle aka boating (nn Piglet)

They are both friend shaped (also obviously referencing his pig mask although I don’t know if they have a band yet).

Chris: Arts & Crafts (nn Bug)

Originally I thought of Weevil (a reference to his mask , weevils are beetles with long snouts). Bug sounded better.

Jim: Camping (nn Biscuit)

a nickname from camperhood, after Seabiscuit because he had/has ‘horse girl hair’. Also because he is all legs like a horse.

Craig: Archery (nn Cricket)

Still notoriously quiet here so, so crickets.

Shawn: Nature (nn Moose)

Big, cranky, could kill you, looks cute, could kill you, still cute.

Mick: Camping (nn Bubbles)

Just one of those dumb nicknames that are like opposites, he gets a cute nickname because he’s big and kinda scary. But the kids still love him.

Corey: Swimming (nn Tigger)

Boundless energy. Also ginger. This just felt right too.

Alessandro: Nature (nn Blossom)

I am once again thinking about the flower beard pic but this one also just felt right. And a little bit more opposite-nickname funny because blossoms are small and delicate.

Jay: Arts and Crafts (nn Juju)

Just a play on his name from Jay to Jay-Jay Juju. This one just felt right.

Michael: Climbing (nn Slinky)

This guy is constantly moving I swear. Also I think he gets accidentally tangled in the low ropes elements a lot. Maybe not so accidentally too.

#realistically their jobs could change from season to season I suppose #camp maggot #sd wlsn #jy jrdsn #pl gry #chrs fhn #jm rt #crg jns #shwn crhn #mck thmsn #cry tylr #alssndro vntrlla #jy wnbrg #mchl pfff #things I wrote #i guess

Chapter 3. Parks and Desolation. My favourite "Brought to You By" for this chapter That Won't Stop Me Because I Don't Care

Grandpa's past was wild, why was he wearing a tux? Why was he in a pyramid playing death games in a TUX? The pyramid I get, the death games I get but the tux...

…You signed a legal disclaimer regarding DEATH?! Excuse me?

Don't worry Yugi your ghost isn't the kind who'd just take your body for a wander

Eaten by Foxes that's certainly a marvel way to go

Rex explaining the basics of Robbery to his boyfriend... lol "Antennahead" poor Kemo

Mervin

"The largely unremarkable hair of a background character" self-awareness

Oh Yugi, the one thing Grandpa wanted you to do and you forgot it. Fraudulent Arts and Crafts is certainly a new reason to forget a test

Nothing good ever follows the word "Hypothetically"

Aww Ishizu's havin a gay

Second-favourite of two brothers

..."Accidentally set up an excellent Practical Joke" how does that work exactly?

Ah Yami dropping those Egyptian facts even if he doesn't consciously remember them

"Ohh I really screwed up" instantly changes to "Nyeh-heh-heh you have fallen into my trap!" Like bro did the idea of the duel just instantly wipe common sense from your brain?

He's really bullying Weevil isn't he?

Aww he wants to show his boyfriend the beetle

Good advice on Weevils part re. the cheerleaders

The Parasite sold Bakura's dignity

"Why are you like this?!" Ah I ask my body that all the time… Of course the only person to blame for my bodies condition is me but still.

Ah the Spite Reserve, most motivational

...Oh no, I'm Joey in this situation... my blood is also red type

"Sane and Reasonable" I'm unsure many people have referred to Joey as that

Yugi scares Yami. That is a strangely amusing image

"You know Green Day?" "When's Green Day?" Yami listens to Green Day on Yugi's "music box" lol

Fricken turd potato

Pickled Camel eyes…was that an actual thing Ancient Egyptian people ate? It sounds so gross, though I have heard some people say that most eyeballs are mostly flavourless…

Aw they're sharing information..."The fucking what eye?"

Oh Poor Yugi… I made a meme it's not great but I made it(

)

"Smallest cutest Jackal"... Dude earlier in this chapter we were warned that these dudes have eaten people before

Ah foxes subscribe to the same school as cats, "I can eat? Human takes the food? Why dost thou forsake me human" op he screwed, being menaced by wildlife

Heh they both call for Téa to save them

If only Rex was their Bio teacher

"HOE DON'T DO IT" lol nice one Weevil

Excellent distracting skills Joey, asking someone about the thing they are incredibly into is a great way to instantly divert their attention, can confirm. Of course my first time reading through I got thoroughly entranced in the story time and did not realise what exactly Joey was doing but going through again the dinosaurs are no longer dazzling me with facts and I understand. I thought Joey was just incredibly interested in dino facts.

Oh man my friend has a very punny sense of humour and that one was right on her level I fully cringed reading it. He deserved to be smacked for saying it

In the mighty words of Terry Pratchett a one-in-a-million chance crops up nine times out of ten, he's a beginner fighting a finalist playing a combo he's never played before and his card has a 50-50 shot of failing. Of course it was going to work.

I'm sure there's some law you can't legally be a Wise Wizard without a beard

Aww DinoBug Boyfriend moment

Yugi...Did you just give in and give the foxes the marshmallows?

I think Sid is the anti Joey in regards to movies. Joey watches a movie based on actual fact and doesn't know it's real, Sid watches movie that is completely fictional and believes some of it's real… The extinct Giant eagle still exists in this world, soo my important question is…Do Moa?

Zygor knows deep LOTR facts

Detroit sounds...hellish

Stressing the importance of dental health, that's adult stuff right there

So is Keith from Detroit? Or does he just live there?

Oof poor Kemo, he's struggling.

Lol he has now pinned his hopes of future escape on Joey making it to the finals

"Please I hate it here" yikes Kemo

Why do I know the name Guy Fieri?

Oh Oh Mokuba lol Mokuba bit Croquets fingers off...🤣 I shouldn't laugh it's a horrible thing but I can't help myself

Drinks blood, sensitive to sunlight, humanoid shape..."Chupacabra"?!

…Werewolf…hmmm…who do you know Tristan who you keep thinking is a Werewolf…who has white hair and you think they are a Werewolf…are any names springing to mind…
