[VIDEO AND PHOTO TAKEN: MAY 15TH, 2023 | Video and Image IDs: A video and four photos of a dark multi-colored (metallic blue, red, black, white, and orange) stilt-legged fly, waving its front legs around. In the video it is standing on a green leaf of a small plant, while in the photos it is standing on a rough grey concrete brick /End ID.]
I've never seen this kind of fly before! Apparently, the reason why it's waving its front legs around like that is because it's trying to mimic the antenna motions of a wasp, as a defense mechanism! Another interesting instance of a bug saying "Don't fuck with me" by way of dance,,,
i’m spending today thinking about how saber toothed cats ALSO probably had a potato form. how they also had a stage where they were fat little babies with very triangle tails and tiny squeaky voices. how they also probably play wrestled and failed badly at calculating jumps.
i’m going to fistfight god for killing them off before i could personally see fat potato saber kittens
how to draw arms ? ?

Hey, I’m Meta (they/it)! This account is basically for saving references/tutorials for myself. I try to write image IDs for everything I can, but sometimes I forget to (or just accidentally hit post instead of save to drafts) or it’s unfeasible. Things that have IDs will be tagged #image id/#video id, things without tags will be tagged with #no id.
If you have feedback on my IDs please let me know!! They’re for you guys so I want to know what you think!
