Recently, my sister wanted to kill a caterpillar and I said that when she sees a butterfly, she looks in awe, but when she sees a caterpillar, she wants to kill it, and that it explains a lot about our society. It was enough to save the poor hungry caterpillar
By the way, I don't kill cockroaches, I just shoo them away. They're nice and usually don't come back
I will 100% toss the green ones to the neighbour's chickens. They fuck up my cabbages leaving just the veins and little poop dots then fly away as detestable white moths to fuck up everyone else's shit. Sometimes I borrow a couple chickens and just let them go find all the yummy buggies themselves. They are so silly and make a fun show out of decimating my enemies.
Diocletian, is that you? The Empire needs you!
I understood this reference. Thanks @pugjesus@lemmy.world!
He moved. @PugJesus@piefed.social or @PugJesus@kbin.social is the new username.
Despite the change in scenery, he's still one of the Lemmy GOATs 🐐🐐🐐
@pugjesus@piefed.social
Kbin is my original, but Kbin went down years ago, before I even moved to Lemmy.world!
