Would I consider that on par with how the Tarantula Hawk Wasp reproduces?
For those not in the know:
Consider yourself warned.
Tarantula Hawk Wasp mothers find themselves a tarantula - yep, a Hugh Jazz spider - and inject venom into the spider, instantly paralysing it. They then drag the paralysed but fully conscious spider to an underground hole, where they lay an egg on the spider. Her mission complete, momma flies off to do fuck knows what, leaving the paralysed spider behind with
a ticking time bombher egg.A few days later, that egg hatches, and the larva, seeing a perfectly tasty meal nearby, digs into the spider, eating it from the inside out, purposely avoiding vital organs to keep them alive as long as possible - while, again, the spider is fully aware what’s going on and completely powerless to do anything.
Yes, they’re native to Australia. Why’d you ask?
They’re also native to a few other places, Europe one of the few places they’re not native.Scratch this potentially, turns out my source doesn’t state this.
That sounds like the Florida Man headline I’d like to see xD
Still working on wrapping my mind around that.
That said, I have wrapped my mind around 10-day weeks, which in work division work as follows:
⚒️⚒️🛋️⚒️⚒️🛋️⚒️⚒️🛋️🛋️
Do this 12 times in a year, add a leap day every three months, say to start each season, plus another extra day for new year’s, and another extra according to existing leap year rules.
Related: 12-hour AM/PM time, at least in written language, is dumb compared to 24-hour time. I don’t want to have to infer from context if 8 is morning or evening. Build that disambiguation into the written time, ffs!
In a similar context, yep
Y’know, it does sound like something sweet to wish upon someone if it did not literally mean death. I can imagine someone who doesn’t have the linguistic & cultural connection with The West to wish something like that upon someone in a heartfelt manner.
It’s The United States.
With huge boats.
With guns.

And probably a deep fried snack next to it.
At least he didn’t have a chat with Marjolein Faber. Otherwise he’d have retroactively died two months ago.

Why did I expect a rickroll there?
There’s a thing going round Dutch media circles that the pope also spoke with Mona Keijzer, Dutch Minister of housing, appointed in the current PVV trash fire government that somehow still hasn’t collapsed, and herself fairly cringe. The running gag is that if either Keijzer or Vance met the Pope at a different moment, he might still be alive instead of having died of cringe overload.
For most of the rest of the world, that’s about 219 mm × 137 mm × 41,3 mm
There is an official DragonForce map though, soooooo…

You really can, when it finally happens his reaction is truly priceless!

Trust me, if I were in charge of tramway clearance management, I would sound an annoying alarm at the vehicle, before having it be towed. Trying to tell the owner that they have until the tow truck arrives to remove the truck.
