Eudaemonia argus (Pink silk)

photo: Pamsai

Native to Sub-Saharan Africa, Eudaemonia argus, sometimes called the pink silk moth, of the Saturniidae family is a large moth with elongated hindwing tails. Long tails such as these are thought to be a defense mechanism against predators, like bats. They deflect sonar away from their body and towards the tail ends. Moths can survive after losing these ends, though it has been observed that their flight speed can be affected.

sometimes there’s a big hole in your soul and that’s just the way it is and you have to fill it up with songs you love and people who make you feel better and towels in your favorite color and socks that feel just right on your feet and even then sometimes part of you will leak out and other times it’ll all gush at once and you’ll feel like you’re fighting a losing battle but the fact is every time you flood you just pick up the pieces of all the little good things around you and start laying the bricks over again and yeah it’s too bad there’s got to be a hole in the first place but that’s life sometimes you babble and ebb and flow and burst but your soul is part of what keeps the world alive and it’s really just amazing you’re here so don’t worry that the sadness never fully goes away I’m just really glad we exist. the world is full of everyone and I’m happy that includes us.

you can also fill it with huge fucken bong rips
