Holy title, Batman!
Aren’t cicadas already sex-crazed?
WTF? He tasted one “for science”! While I understand there wasn’t any other way to know… What if it Hay been a poisonous mixture? I suppose he’d tested it before against common poisons! Still, wow!
Of course he knew it was safe before he tried it. He’s a scientist, not a daredevil.
And I wish people would be less against eating insects. If they ate more insects for protein and less beef, we would have much less of a problem. Just using cricket flour for more protein in our American carb-heavy diets would be helpful. And no, you won’t be picking legs out of your teeth.
That’s true. Cricket farts are still a concern, but they only produce 20% of the methane that cows produce in relation to protein. Mealworms fart, but don’t produce any methane at all. If you’re not interested in trying a vegan diet, insect protein is far better for the planet than beef.

They also require far less space to farm.
And rarely have issues with inhumane treatment.
Honestly, and I say this as someone who is both a vegetarian and someone who has eaten insects when he wasn’t- I really could not care less about the suffering of a cricket any more than I care about the suffering of a cockroach. I guess that’s where I draw my “if they suffer, I have to let it go” line. After all, there’s more and more evidence that plants can arguably experience suffering in their own way, such as grass putting out a scent warning when it’s getting cut. Is that grass, in its own way, feeling some sort of suffering? We don’t know at this time, but if we ever find out that is the case, a lot of people will have to draw a line there to just having to let that go.

“… and the Sex-crazed Zombie Cicadas” awesome name for a band
I would also keep the “on speed” part. Even if the band aren’t users
The Last of Us crossed with Cronenberg’s Shivers.
I stopped reading after the bullshit that is
“amphetamine the drug called speed” No it isn’t you stupid dipshit, that’s methamphetamine fucking do a basic Wikipedia search you stupid fuck
Calm down Heisenberg.
An ignorance of chemistry and science is nothing to be proud of, it’s how we end up with a group of religious dipshits forcing their beliefs on people and restricting people’s reproductive rights. Try opening a book instead of the TV next time, maybe you’ll learn something.
Arrogance and misplaced rage aren’t anything to be proud of, either.
Your argument is pretty much a slippery slope argument, which is how we get things like people trying to ban gay marriage.
Calm down Guttenberg.
whatever you say conversative enabler
Speed is colloquial for both, altho I would argue it more commonly refers to vanilla racemic amphetamine (levo and dextro 50/50)
