I'd be a moth, the light fluffy ones

spoilerHOLY SHIT THERE'S PINK MOTHS?

[–] Binette@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Yes! That's the rosy maple moth!

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago

Praying Mantis because I love mantis style kung fu.

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago

Black widow spider. I like the tall, scary types.

Or cicada. Nap for 17 years before screaming and getting some and immediately dying. Seems chill.

[–] Binette@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

If spiders count, tarantula or jumping spider. I wanna be fluffy

Else, a rosy maple moth.

Edit: here are some images for each

Rhino beetles are so cool, imagine having a huge horn.

Big bug

[–] FALGSConaut@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

An ant or a bee would be cool. Just you and hundreds/thousands of your homies chilling, working together, doing colony insect stuff.

Leaf bug would be cool too

[–] LanyrdSkynrd@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

Dobson fly because you get to be a creepy looking hellgrammite and a big beautiful quad-winged fly.

Euphoria inda (bumble flower beetle, brown fruit chafer)

[–] someone@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

Dragonfly, I would eat so many mosquitoes.

[–] Assian_Candor@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

Being an earthworm would be chill I think. Just burrowing all day and hanging out in the cool dark

[–] Shaleesh@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

An ant would be pretty cool

whatever type of beetles are on my bean plants, those motherfuckers are eating good rn

[–] Speaker@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

Adam Friedland first choice, then one of those ladybugs that's black with red dots instead of red with black dots.

Monarch butterfly because going to Canada and Mexico every year seems cool

[–] glans@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

i'd be an earwig

i hate earwigs and so does everyone else

[–] HiImThomasPynchon@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm an angry bee

I hate everyone I see

I've got the

Gift of the sting

But I can only use it once

Which strikes me as unfair

Because the world is full of c*nts
