You know that “bug” is a loving lie — because you also love the not-quite-bugs: millipedes with their slow, synchronized wave of legs, springtails bouncing like commas made of rain, moth-fluff soft as dust come alive.
Where someone else sees a pest, you see a pattern: the embroidery of a weevil’s snout, the geometry of a shield bug’s back, the tiny, furious grace of a jumping spider’s pause before it leaps.
And in return, they give you something rare: a reminder that small is not insignificant, that six legs (or eight, or many more) is just another way of dancing through the same broken, beautiful world.
Thank you for liking the bugs. They’ve been here all along — and they’ve been waiting for someone like you.
