Recently this video surfaced of some really tiny (spic finger for comparasion) snake like creature with legs. Is it some kind of Skink?
Worm salamander.

Btw they don't have lungs. They breathe through their skin around their mouth. Pretty neat.

so they just take the oxigen from the air directly to their blood?

>The apparent cruelty of the ichneumonids troubled philosophers, naturalists, and theologians in the 19th century, who found the parasitoid life style inconsistent with the notion of a world created by a loving and benevolent God.

botfly maggots have got to be among the most disgusting things in the world
>>2450573
Holy fuck, that is horrifying. More relevant of course is the fact that there is a HUMAN botfly species.
That alone is 100% proof that there is no God that is both omnipotent and benevolent. A God that doesn't meet either of those criteria? Sure, but whoever made those things is either incompetent or cruel, or both.

So there are a handful of bug species on this planet that cause humans a minor inconvenience. Time to throw out our Bibles since such an absolutely horrid thing must mean God can't possibly exist.
Let's completely ignore the astounding fact that just 3 types of particles — up-quarks, down-quarks, and electrons — if they get into the correct pattern, can produce a concious being.
Help, I'm scared like crazy. I have an absolute phobia of grasshoppers and things like that, they make weird sounds and stuff... Well one is behind my shelves, once in a while it does the sound. I looked everywhere, and I can't see it, I can't be crazy, cause my dad heard it too. What the fucking do I do? We got no sprays, or anything to kill it. So what am I supposed to do?
>>2450493
that thing is literally unable to harm you in any way. what the fuck is there to be scared about
>>2450497
I know that, I just hate how they are fucking huge compared to other insect or whatever, and they are so fucking weird.
It did the sound again HOLY FUUUUUUUCK
How do I tame these cool guys?
Become a tick farm and hope those aren't infected.
>>2450396
Can't, I need to tame hungry Lyme ticks.
Tick is a nickname for crust punks or leftie scum that lives in the streets here.
You're walking out of your house and you see a guy like this in a crow mask, what do you do?
Say
"So the knowledge, it’ll steer me 'til I’m searing through your pulse
If you follow on me clearly, then you better listen close
I’m hollow as a theory of a man who sees ghosts
Appearing with a fury, but it’s nothing he can hold
See, when a shell’s hollow and you stretch skin across
Hands beat it down and the drums starts to talk
The average city crow grows cold and unfolds into a black hawk
And all the alley cats and rats getting picked off
Plus all the trash that they live is ‘bout to kiss god
I treasure cleanliness. Been living with my junkie dogs
Who find it hard in their heart to give a fuck at all
Just got a penalty and still ain’t touched the fucking ball
It makes me wonder do I really want to play at all?
But if I quit that’d be a kiss on every haters’ jaw
And that’s never been the way I ever played at all"
Record him vertically while yelling "WORLDSTAR!!", then put it into my cringe compilation which consists mainly of roblox and minecraft music parodies.

>Wolf spiders can be found in a wide range of habitats both coastal and inland. These include shrublands, woodland, wet coastal forest, alpine meadows, suburban gardens, and homes. Spiderlings disperse aerially and consequently wolf spiders have wide distributions. Although some species have very specific microhabitat needs (such as stream-side gravel beds or montane herb-fields) most are wanderers without permanent homes. Some build burrows which can be left open or have a trapdoor (depending on species). Arid zone species construct turrets or plug their holes with leaves and pebbles during the rainy season to protect themselves from flood waters.
What the hell is a Lycosidae doing in the middle of the most inhospitable desert in the world?

>A honeybee brain has a million neurons, compared with the 100 billion in a human brain. But, researchers report, bees can recognize faces, and they even do it the same way we do.
Are Bees the best pets?
>Fluffy
>Tiny = cute
>Pollinate the world with beauty
>Harmless
>Have the ability to love you
>Make delicious honey for you as a way of saying thanks
>Are the reason we're able to survive on earth
Bee's are the best pets without a doubt
>>2448577
they don't really have an interest in being a pet tho
working for the colony is all they care for

>Are Bees the best pets?
the answer is yes

I agree, but bees are cool and i wanna raise some for their honey
List some dog breeds you hate, can be ethics or just opinion.
I choose pug, their faces are squashed and because of that, they can't breathe normally.
Any toy or miniature breeds.
Pugs
Breeds with unnaturally short or stubby legs
Man i love pugs. But jesus what a dumb barking noise they make
>>2446212
> dog breeds you hate
>Any 'dog' breed below 40 lbs standard.
I especially hate pugs, Yorkshire Terriers, Chihuahuas, and Corgis. I find them aesthetically displeasing and usually have an overly aggressive temperament (with the exception of Corgis who always seem to be lazy fucks).
>Pitbulls
I dislike pitbulls as well but with regular training they can be tolerable especially when used as a sporting dog.
>Malinois
Uglier, smaller, more hyperactive version of a GSD. It's like they took a shit tier shepherd and built a breed on it as it's foundation. They have way too much drive for the amount of intelligence they lack. Training them is not easy in spite of the fact they constantly require a task. Never had a breed actually exhaust me simply by being around, and I spent summers on my cousins ranch with his border collies.
How do you deal with being attacked by a dog? Say a pitbull
Assume gun is not in the equation

I can't be dealin with this
gouging its eyes out with something sharp would be your best hope

Is it time for civilized peoples to band together and ban the cruel practice known as halal slaughter?
Just ban Islam and we will be good.

FPBP
Though, just ban religion and go from there.
>>2449509
You realize factory farmed meats in first world nations are technically halal slaughtered right? So "civilized peoples" are actually no better.
