Pretty much. But they kind of look like they've had their heads split open, and the scent glands under their eyes are terrifying when they flare.

I saw a bug today, it had six legs and was sizable like a dragonfly, but not a dragonfly or a damselfly. It was intimadating so I walked away and left it alone in my house. I have. Not seen it since then. I believe it to be alien in nature and possibly the precursor to an invasion.

It might just be an ant.

I once saw slugs fucking by my kitchen door ...... fascinated me, the dance, the circling , the penetration.

I had to look it up to see what they were up to .... it's quite beautiful.

‘Devils Coach Horse Beetle’

My son saw one running around his bedroom after unpacking from a holiday - absolutely convinced he had brought it back with him, he’d never seen one before and they arch like a scorpion and are quite aggressive and it was, in fairness, the biggest one I’d ever seen. Had to Google it for him to prove they’re native (and if he kept bothering it they have a fair nasty bite and will emit a foul odour).
