This is how some invasive species got their starts.
We should introduce their natural predator just to be safe

I’d watch Frogs on a Plane.

He’s going to have to adjust to flying on the opposite side of the air.
And taste for tea
That’s a wonderful stupid reply lol. Up you go.
Screwworm fly says hi?

My car was made in Germany in 2010 and there is a perfectly preserved Munich fly in the taillight which is kind of cool
Why would the first owner not complain that a sticker price 70k car somehow passed quality inspection with this though
German car
tail light
$70k price tag
BMW drivers don’t realize blinkers exist, so they wouldn’t even know how to form a complaint.

I think about this whenever I pick up a spider or similar on my car. I’m transporting them the equivalent of entire planets beyond their perspective. What new world will I bring them to?
I was hiking recently and saw a massive caterpillar. I took a photo and asked our national biological office if they could ID it cos AI was doing a shit job (as usual).
They identified it and said that it almost definitely arrived as a seed or smaller caterpillar attached to a car and managed to find its way into the forest. They mentioned that they normally return with holidayers in the summer and don’t make it through the cold winter’s, but this may shift due to climate change. This thing was about 18 cm (7 American toes) long.
Crazy to see how much shit these critters can handle and still survive (for now…).
uh, american toes are a lot more variable than that
Is that 7 toes lengthwise or side-by-side? And which American toes? Lady liberty, or a normal human adult, or a child? Perhaps a newborn?
Man I hate our measuring system, it’s so complicated.
Are you a transplant here or something? Those answers are all clearly side-by-side Liberty toes. Real Americans are born with that knowledge.
See I mean that’s what I assume, too, but whomever starts their post with metric is clearly not used to the conversions into freedom units and so one must verify they did they math correctly. In case they are egregiously off the mark.
The small part of the feet also used to measure things. You standardised those, right?
Nope, nothing standard about toes, lots of genetic variation! ;)
Imagine being a fish who gets caught by a human, and gets yanked out of his dimension and into an entirely different dimension, almost an opposite world.
Then the alien yanks the hook out of his lip, and throws him into the air…and he lands back in his own dimension, gasping for air.
Or, perhaps the alien takes him away…
Did you know fish can see through glass the same way we can see in? As long as it’s not curved glass they can see pretty clearly.
Damn health tourists.
He buzzin innit?
Nah, what you don’t know is that fly committed some fly crime and saw an opportunity to get tf outta there as fast as possible. London, here I come! Nobody will find me there MWAHAHA
Some fly is going to land on your screen and say,
“CARL?!?”
Everyday I scroll through Lemmy, this flies life is about to change again 🙄
Oh shit, we’ve added another Reddit feature, of people complaining about seeing the same post 100x despite it being upvoted by people who obviously never have! The “everything must only be posted ONCE!!1!!” feature, one of my favorites
wah i have seen this comment before also my nappy is full SOMEONE CHANGE THE INTERNET ALSO ME
I’m chronically online most days and I haven’t seen this on Lemmy yet, nor at all for that matter.
I hate when people whine about seeing stuff multiple times; at least this isn’t a depressing news article being shared in 63 different communities so you have to see the same thing dozens and dozens of times and be reminded how shit everything is…
It’s just a fun little picture with no bad vibes at all. I’m ok with seeing that sort of thing repeatedly.
no bad vibes, eh? This fly JUST WENT AROUND THE WORLD! /jk
Haha didn’t even think of that. Yeah, you go to /all and it’s literally page after page of the same 7 news articles being auto-postec across 32 communities with the same name on different instances. On a platform where this is problem inherently exists, how does one complain about reposts?
Maybe spend less time on Lemmy and go out to see the world for yourself instead of being envious of this fly living its best life.
Hey, not all of us can afford to see the world.
I’m so poor, I can’t even pay attention (fucking ADHD).
The world’s outside mate. You just use your legs and explore.
that’s not the world outside my window, that’s statesia. it doesn’t count.
I’ve been a Lemmy admin for over 2 years and browse daily. I usually sort by top -> 6 hours but I’ve never seen this
Crazy you missed it being one of the top posts and a few different communities the last few days.
Bruh, how much do you scroll through Lemmy? Because I scroll enough to only see posts from days ago, but I’ve literally never seen this before.
Like a few times a day I’m at work and there’s a big gap in customers. Also, I only have a girlfriend, a mom and like two friends, so no real social life going at my age, just playing and watching stuff, y’know?
I’m old, bro 😭
Lucky fly. It’s still so hot in Houston.
I hope he paid the visa
He will encounter British Flyes! He will have to learn how to buzz around CRISPS and SCONES now.
Buncha cunts all buzz buzz, croikey
