I bet the people that love to pick on biden for his slight, occasional stutter are the same ones that didn't say a word about our last president being a literal incoherent babbling idiot.

As a European I think it's wild. You have a narcissistic idiot trying to ruin democracy on one side, I think we were alot of people being quite anxious about it all, the USA is quite powerful...

On the other side you have a(nother) geriatric, who's losing his train of thoughts, don't really know where he is and what he should be doing.

Don't get me wrong, it's really a BIG BIG SUPERBIG difference but dude you can do better, or so I hope.

Good luck for us all I guess :-)

I've seen one of these bugs on the side of the road once:

Damn, from homeless on the side of the road to being in charge of night-time, this bug is living the America Dream

Ooh is that a giant water beetle?

[–] PM_Your_Nudes_Please@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

It’s a toe-biter. They have one of the most painful stings among insects.

IIRC, it’s not a venom sting per se. Rather, they inject a digestive enzyme that breaks down the tissues in your skin. So it feels like the sting site is on fire, as all the surrounding nerves slowly get digested.

It’s the same way they feed. They trap prey with those big pincers, then inject them with the digestive enzymes and wait for it to turn their prey into soup.

Close. Giant water bug (called "Toe Biters" in some places). Saw one army-crawling across a parking lot just yesterday!

what's the difference?

[–] usualsuspect191@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What's the difference between a water beetle and water bug? Mostly that one's a beetle and one's a bug.... They're in the same class but different orders. Think of a ladybug (a beetle) vs stink bug (true bug)
