    Doesn’t detract from the fact that they are beautiful. These are just as valid in their existence as monarchs. It’s easier, though, to kill things that you label as bad. I do it too. But human activity has made the monarch more pitiable and the lanternfly more hated. These insects are just trying to exist. It is our activity that has caused the problems. Sometimes we must remind ourselves of that, even though we must kill the invasives.

    Not supporting gas/auto/etc. companies that they use for power. Not doing long car commutes doubling that. Living in/aspiring to walkable, close-knit communities that function rather than exurbs thereby stripping more power away from them by building human links with your neighbors. Etc.

    Edit: also I could run them over.

    It’s new tech. Front setup is really good because you can have a conversation with your child very easily while riding. The child also has a really engaging, dynamic view of the world from right up front. Keeps the weight central for a very stable riding experience. And they get a shadow experience of holding bike bars! It’s been a big deal good thing for us.







  • You know, I really want to upvote this because that is such a wildly Incorrect statement; it seems unpopular because it’s extremely unpopular with folks who know things about ecology.

    But in reality, I don’t think that’s too unpopular of an opinion. Have you seen the state of the American yard?

    So I think I’m going to downvote because you are both wrong in your conception of the issue and that I don’t think that’s actually too unpopular in society.

    Thankfully things are beginning to change.

    Also, your race comparison thing is legitimately insulting to humanity.
