Idea for bug themed costume party BUT you aren’t supposed to dress up to be the insect: instead you dress up like what the bug would be if turned into a person; then people have to guess what arthropod you are. Examples:All black, combat boots, cargo pants— but, throw a bright orange pimp coat over the whole thing and stomp around angrily sipping a juice box. (velvet ant)Gray hoddie over soft comfortable bookish clothes, at the slightest provocation you hide in the hoodie. (isopod)

@futurebird 😁 👍 So I can wear this ancient dark jumper with so many threads hanging loose like centipede legs?

If your friends aren’t super cool enough to do all bugs I guess you could let people be macro animals too.

@futurebird Spouse says “lime green religious vestments”.Separately I was thinking of a brightly colored swoopy cloak and if anyone talked to me I would blow one of those party favors at them that uncurls and then curls up again.

@vikxin Everything is so charming until the murder spree starts… and no one talks about how every lady bug went through a punk phase as a teen.

@futurebird Dressed in black, but wearing a children’s Darth Vader Halloween costume face mask (not a whole helmet, just a face mask, held on with an elastic strap) on the back of my head. Darth has been given a rough smile with a sharpie.

@futurebird @vikxin They get even more metal as adults. Sure, they have those colourful carapaces, but underneath they look like a giger sculpture.

@futurebird I don't know if I get this ...tall man in a slick, dark brown tuxedo, with a golden-brown vest underneath. Has a gold-rimmed monocle on a long golden chain. Talks fast, moves faster, drives a fast car. Says he's a beetle but actually a roach ...

@futurebird @vikxin having worked in a lab that raised these for ecological experiments I can confirm these are definitely micro murder logs and very spritely when you need to corral them.

@llewelly Roaches are very choosy about what they eat if given the choice. I raise feeders for my ants and they like fresh mushrooms (shiitake please not button!) and leave any wilted lettuce untouched. (they are a little spoiled though)

@futurebird Matte black tails, glossy black everything else, down to my shirt and hair. Spring stilts. Move by jumping, especially when startled. A little before sunset, whip out a violin and start trying to tune it with a couple of strokes. Repeat every few seconds all night. (field cricket)

@futurebird you and your friend show up in a subtle autumn attire, maybe a cozy flannel shirt. Your arms are under your shirt, like a T-Rex, but a cute T-Rex that timidly eats from the plates that people didn't finish. Everyone finds you charming and unassuming. But, when you leave the room, you and your friend decide to play tag, stomping around as loud as possible, and preferably banging walls when convenient. Party goers are convinced it must be the neighbor making the racket. (mice)

@futurebird black vest and black cargos with lots of velcroable pockets, well-worn pair of black sneakers, it all looks weirdly tactical until you get to the huge thick glasses but then you notice behind those glasses are eyes that have definitely seen more Red Bull cans today than is healthy

@futurebird The person in a yellow and black striped sweater with yellow pants, yellow socks, yellow shoes, and a belt full of tasers lingering by the punchbowl. (Vespinae)

@futurebird This is not exactly related but it reminded me of something. Someone I knew hosted a "come dressed as your spouse" party and it produced some of the most hilarious set of photographs I've ever seen.

@futurebird Skinny jeans, form-fitting shirt, and a long overcoat all in matching camo. Autumn is your time to be SEEN, so find a good wall to stretch your appendages against and vibe there the whole time.
