       Just got back from the ant exhibit out in CT.  It was amazing. I’ll post about it more later.

       @retech I think sometimes people mention “Them!” to me because they think I have not considered some of the “downsides” 🙄 of giant ants. But I like that movie a lot except for the way they did the ants mouths which was not very accurate.

       @futurebird I think they'd be wanting a serious word with someone regarding our historical treatment of their nests. And legitimately so too.

       @futurebird uhhh, if they were that size in my backyard/kitchen, I think I'd be moving planets.

       @donlamb_1 I got it from @nora who makes them from glass. (not sponsored... but VERY willing ... I will talk this up forever, it's the nicest one I have.)

       @futurebird it would be great if there were ants you could saddle up and ride to the supermarket instead of driving a damn car. They’d probably be thrilled to just march right into the store, too. Doubt they’d give you a lot of choice about that part of the trip.

       @futurebird So familiar! I grew up in the area and think I was captivated by this when I was very little, but had forgotten about it until now.There were some funny stories about Bruce. He was apparently a very secretive guy.

       @futurebird They should sell this. "I'd buy it for a dollar."
