Not how it actually works

I can’t relate to this cartoon — it’s too impractical.

We do not have a food delivery service in Morris.

I do not buy bugs in a store. Well, I will occasionally buy a few crickets from the pet store in town or waxworms from a bait shop, but those are just special treats.

I have a big tank in the basement where I raise swarms of mealworms (they’re easy!) and an incubator at my lab where I’ve got tens of thousands of fruit flies.

I am beginning to suspect that the cartoonist doesn’t actually have much experience with raising a house full of invertebrates.

    The cartoonist was surely not concerned with anything deeper than their joke about the word grub.

    Now, if only PZ could hybridize his spiders into a massive antifa army of giants to destroy the
    Maggots that Are Governing America (MAGA), that would be a positive first step toward reducing the amount of destruction MAGA is wreaking on this country (actually, on the whole world).

    A local pet store offers delivery so i could actually do this. Not that i have as many spiders to feed as PZ

    Buh-buh-but spiders are not insects … and PZ should have been the first to point that out …

    I’ve seen that movie!

    HANK PYM: I know “socialism” is a loaded word, but we could learn a thing or two from them.

    C’mon PZ, if you’re secretly an Avenger I think now is the time to act. :)

    I’m in a dark mood.
    I’m picturing someone breaking into your home after some catastrophic awfulness and discovering your horde of protein.

    @Bekenstein Bound
    Nah, Jerry is selling insects. He doesn’t care what you do with them (at least that’s what he told the cops when i released 10,000 of his crickets into a homophobic Church)
