BUGS BUGS BUGS
BUGS are a relatively recent interest of mine!! Up until a couple of years ago I was quite afraid of insects, actually, but I decided that I was curious and wanted to get over that, so I started working up a tolerance for them. Collecting images online, drawing them, reading about them, paying more attention to them IRL, handling them to take them outside instead of just killing them on sight. It's taken a little bit of time, but they're so fascinating to me now!!!! So it's been well-worth the effort :3c.
Beetles and Moths are my favorites, and Millipedes are a very close runner-up. I'm still working to try to find some tolerance for Spiders, they kind of remain a little freaky to me for some reason, but I am getting there!

Something Ill always recommend to people trying to get more comfortable with insects (if they can handle it, not everyone can) is to just… watch them. Video or RL. Doesn’t really matter. Don’t interact- no need to touch or manipulate, just watch them.
One thing that I’ve noticed gets a lot of people hung up on bugs is this idea of foreignness- they aren’t mammalian in design, and for many in personality too. Bugs are weird with their extra legs, alien design and almost unanimal-like… but they aren’t. If you watch an ant build its nest you’ll see it carefully choose wear each grain of sand goes. A beetle walking will look and chose what twigs to crawl on. A spider seeing your shadow will turn to look at you.
People are surprised by that. They’re surprised that if you just watch a bug be a bug… its behavior is understandable. Its not as weird.
