Great camouflage. Carrying a sack of dozens dead ants on your back does not draw attention at all.
Camouflage through intimidation. If you saw a dude sneaking around covered in human skulls, no you didn’t.
I didn’t indeed. You got a point there.
I guess spiders don’t want to eat a pile of dead ants, even if it’s moving. Not the sharpest tools in the shed, spiders.
Ants “see” mostly by smells. This would probably smell like another ant and thus wouldn’t be bothered.
That’s some dark souls shit right there.
I was thinking Warhammer.
Night Lords reading this like “nice”

We already had an Ocean Soulslike (Another Crab’s Treasure). Now we need a Bug Soulslike.
Isn’t that Hollow Knight?
I mean… Yeah? But I was referring to a Full Soulslike game in 3D, and I see Hollow knight more like a Metroidvania with some Soulslike features.
This community is just cool_science_facts now. I am here for it tbh.
We go for the Dawkins definition of “meme.”
I have to head off to work, can you give me a quick lowdown on this scientific meme definition?
Meme : Gene :: Culture : Species
A Dawkinsian “meme” is like an idea-unit that can take hold and thrive in the landscape of imagination, developing into culture or philosophy if it spreads widely enough.
That’s a really good definition

Good definition! I’ll often say it is a “primary unit of cultural exchange.” I consider a lot of things memes: internet memes of course, songs, scenes from movies, plot tropes, characters, basically any bit of culture that can be encapsulated and identified as a distinct entity.
I think it was a bit tongue in cheek since meme is actually a concept from science (internet-meme is very close to it’s original meaning afaik):
Like what we do with fur and leather?
Yeah but these guys have exoskeletons so they are cooler. Sorry, I don’t make the rules
So they’re the Reavers of the insect world.
Q: How does a reaver clean his blade?
A:
Tap for spoiler
He runs it through the Wash.
But I thought they were just a legend…
Litter bugs (green lacewing larvae) do this as well. Great bug to have in your garden as they feed on aphids, scale, mealy bugs - pretty much all the pests you don’t want on your plants.
Also they are metal af.
To attract those bugs, play SLAYER!!!
The Cadaver Collector is real!?
dont hate on the style
That must be terrifying to see at it’s scale. Wtf.
Found Earth’s version of Skinner
“Nature is fucking metal”
