          Thank you for reminding me that Lemmy needs a “Fierce Flow” community, for men with long hair to celebrate their amazing locks.

    Centipedes are the absolute worst of the worst in terms of disturbing insects. I can’t even look at one without my brain vividly simulating the way all of those crispy little legs would feel clinging along the length of my arm.

      🤓uhm ackhtually centipedes are not insects but are members of a different group of arthropods called Myriapods, along with everyone’s favorite detritivores the millipedes

      edit for additional infodumping: their venom injecting apparatuses are modified legs called forcipules or toxicognaths, and they are the only known animal with such features.

        My favorite myriapod is Arthropleura. Imagine a millipede the length of a car!

          “Arthropleura (Greek for ‘jointed ribs’) is an extinct genus…”

      House centipedes are entirely harmless. I would be happy and honored to see one skittering around in my home. They eat harmful things.

    Knowledgeable identification of an insect arthropod from the photo with cited reasoning: nice.
