TW: DEAD INSECT (feeder crickets)

Fed my kids tonight and there was some drama. The giant canyons and woodlice know how to share, and even the little ones have decent access at mealtime, but with the dairy cows, it’s Night of the Living Pods. These crickets were already dead when I bought them and would have likely been thrown away. I stick them in the freezer when I get home for an hour just to be sure.

Common striped woodlouse I saw in the woods this morning!

#i help out with the others that manage the wood #we do it once a month :3 #this month we were clearing some bramble to give the rest of the ground cover some room to breathe #and we use what we pull up to build 'dead hedges' along the paths/to stop people and dogs trampling the new sprouts #they're basically just a few vertical sticks with the rest of it woven between them #and they're fantastic habitats for bugs and foraging spots for birds #this lil guy was on a log near the base if one we'd been working on #i got new gardening gloves also and i was very thankful since my old ones let all the thorns through 😭 #but these ones are great! #anywhom heres this guy #mine #invertebrates #woodlouse #isopod #common striped woodlouse

I thought I scooped up two Androniscus dentiger, but this little mama is actually a Trichoniscus pusillus (or provisorius, since she's not so tiny).

The rosy ran over her and flipped her over and she just stayed there, not knowing what to do, bless.

#One of my many brickwork woodlouse sightings. #The brickwork woodlouse and the common pill woodlouse are my most frequently observed species. I see so many at work. #I shouldn't put so many on iNat but they are all so pretty...

mars (e************[email protected]) submitted: was doing an experiment w pillbugs for biology and found this absolutely massive one !!! not sure if it’s a different species or just oddly large ,, found in southern michigan

Looks like you’ve got a couple species there but it’s definitely normal for them to get that big! That one in particular looks like a common shiny woodlouse.

the wildest thing for how common it is on invertebrate ID groups are people who have positively no idea what an isopod is. Like people posting "HELP!!! WHAT are THESE!?!?" and it's a woodlouse or a roly poly. I have never in my life been in any place where some sort of isopod isn't under every single stone or brick or piece of wood on the ground. I'll bet you can find one on any walk in any environment barring the hottest possible sand dunes or solid frozen ice. How does one live more than a couple years on this planet without encountering these creatures.

so! we all know these lil guys right

Eating bugs.

I had to rewatch the episode to see that and yeah;

MK had a bug in his hair, and Wukong picked it out and ate ala monkey grooming instincts. Too big to be a louse, looks more like a silkworm in it's cocoon.

I bet he picked it up after getting slammed into the pavement - from personal experience no matter where you lie down in public, you *will* get a bug on you.

One of my fave hcs is MK's monkey instincts kicking in and he accidentally eats a spider before he realises. And promptly freaks out.

And because eating certain arthropods isn't considered as taboo in China (but still considered weird); MK's other family members have their own thoughts on the matter. Tang is 100% the parent who'd be like that one tumblr post about a guy eating spiders. Pigsy is with MK on the grossness of it.

Tang: "I don't see what the big deal is." Sandy: "Insects *are* a far more substainable source of protein than beef or fish." Pigsy, angry squeal: "Because its disgusting! You've no idea where it's been!" MK: "Thank you, Dadsy!" Tang: "MK, you ate fried silkworm grubs by the bucketful when you were little." MK, turning green with horror: "I THOUGHT THOSE WERE POPCORN SHRIMP!?" Pigsy: "That's what you were feeding my son when you took him to the night market!?" Tang, shrugs: "I'm a culinary explorer piggy. And if lil MK took a liking to my haul, who was I to deny him the boon?" Pigsy & MK, both at once: "BECAUSE IT WAS BUGS TANG!" Macaque, teasingly pokes head out of shadows: "Did I hear something about silkworms? I'm starving!" MK & Pigsy: *disgusted retching noises* Mei, the one who started the convo: *is busy recording all of this*

It gets so bad that MK will randomly ask other animal demons/celestials he comes across in his travels their thoughts on the matter. The answers are... less than encouraging.

MK: "Before we part ways, I have a big big personal question to ask you Mr Three Eyed God-sir." Erlang Shen, expecting a lore question: "Ok." MK: "Do you eat bugs?" Erlang Shen: "...define bug." MK: "wut." Erlang: "Because in the grand scheme of things, any creature that crawls with many legs can be called a bug. Crabs, prawns, and shrimp are in the same family as the common woodlouse." MK, despairing: "Nooo! Don't ruin shellfish for me!!!" Wukong: "MK, stop asking the gods if they eat bugs. They don't cook 'em good anyway." MK: *retching sound*

The poor monkey boy probably ignores these instincts for as long as possible, until one day MK takes a bite out of a giant bug monster and things quickly turn into Shaggy & Scooby vs the Cotton Candy Glob. Onlookers were horrified.

Tell us about the Clanmew slurs!!!

SO, most Clanmew slurs tend to be based on animals that Clan cats don't like. They attack characteristics of half-clan cats and outsiders by comparing them to unwanted animals, be they invasive, poisonous, or distasteful.

I tend to make them up as I find animals that fit that bill, but here's a couple very insulting terms so far;

Common Striped Woodlouse (Philoscia muscorum) = Gishooi Said to be a hybrid between Millipedes and Rollypollies, but because of the very different natures of its parents, doesn't have the strength of either. Used against mixed-blood cats.

Egyptian Goose (Alopochen aegyptiaca) = Habaka A very aggressive sort of goose that is loud, attacks for no reason, and displaces native fowl. Sometimes called the 'rogue goose,' their populations need to be managed. Used against cats branded as dangerous or bullies, is not always a slur, but when applied to ex-outsiders it's absolutely intended as one. RiverClan-exclusive.

Gray Squirrel = Chakchak The ThunderClan-version of 'egyptian goose,' but it's a LOT stronger when ThunderClan uses it. Gray squirrels are an active threat to the red squirrels that they value so much, and are killed on-sight.

Cuckoo = Hug'koo Listen to me. Listen to me. Never call another cat this, especially not if they've invoked Queen's Rights for their kittens, are suspected of being half-Clan, or have brought an outsider into the Clan. A cuckoo is a brood parasite, which lays an egg that hatches into a violent invader, killing all of its innocent siblings in the nest. It's the singular most detested animal in Clan Culture, used against anyone suspected of undermining the Clan.

Drypaw = Sheshepwyyr An apprentice of RiverClan that won't get their paws wet, but also applied to cats of other Clans who can't swim. RiverClan-exclusive, of course

Turnclaw = Kignak'kach Turning-Claw. The word that Berryheart will be using to describe cats changing Clans. Comes from Turned/Turning/Will Turn: Kignaka/Kignak/Kigna
