If the πΊπΈU.S. military were to actually build a stealth fighter with segmented, morphing wings the kind seen in sci-fi movies what mission do you think it would be best suited for?
This Cockroach was infected... Then it's Head Fell Off.
This infected cockroach looks like it has already reached the end -but the nightmare is just beginning.. A giant Ophiocordyceps fungal stalk erupts from it's thorax while an ichneumon wasp finds the infected goat and drives it's incredibly long ovipositor deep into the cockroach abdomen. Then a vibrant green hairy frog suddenly strikes and gulps down the wasp. Days later, the cockroach is buried beneath a white, web-like fungal network. It's thorax cracks, the entire head separates and falls onto the leaf... and from the broken head, a tiny ichneumon wasp larva crawls out. A bizarre chain of fungus, parasitoid wasp, predator, and insect survival -nature can be stranger than fiction.
This is not bathing, this is deliverance.

THE BEAUTIFUL GAME β½π§΅
The blazing sensation.
The sweaty atmosphere.
The smell of green life.
The blood pumping through my veins.
The source of all this chaos and tension.
*Inhales.*
The beautiful game.

What Am I Really?
Sometimes I wonder
What is my purpose actually
Do I exist solely to fulfill one "destiny"
Or to use my gifts to achieve
I do think about this stuff
Deep down, some people really want to change their username or profile pic, but the fear of becoming unrecognizable to their mutuals is holding them back. π
