Honestly the mere fact that some people refer to Daddy Long Legs as “harvestmen” is creepier than 90% of all deliberately created horror but like the worst part is that the alternative is calling them Daddy Long Legs

They are harvesting our sorrows
True harvestmen, and not cellar spiders which are the other Daddy Long Legs, are truly omnivorous- known to eat everything from spiders, to fecal matter, to leaves and fungus… But one of the singularly most interesting habits of a particular European species is their almost symbiotic relationship with beehives– particularly man-made beehives. When a bee dies inside the hives, workers will remove the the corpse to just outside the hive just before dark. And the harvestmen? Well, they live up to their name.
So what you’re saying is that they are the grim reaper for bees.

“average cow liks 3 bred a year” factoid actualy just statistical error. average cow liks 0 bred per year. Bredlik Cow, who lives in an authentic 18th century French bakery & liks over 10,000 bred each night, is an outlier adn should not have been counted.

Y'all need to stop saying shit like “songs with the same bpm”
Beats per minute is a unit. The word you’re looking for is tempo.
If two songs have the same tempo, their bpm are equivalent.
You wouldn’t say two people of the same height have “the same inches.” You would say height. So stop saying two songs have “the same bpm” when you can just say tempo
I’m an assistant band director don’t argue with me
I have a music degree and taught for over a decade. You can say BPM or tempo it’s basically all the same. Don’t let the classical music snobs get you down
Oh no, I made a post voicing a pet peeve of mine and suddenly I’m a “classical music snob” even though I’ve been playing baroque flute for over a decade professionally…
Yeah I mean… Well there it is
I’m now going to refer to things that are the same height as having the same inches. I like that.
Tempo indications (either in-score or in reference/conversation) are often not as specific as bpm. You can technically say that two songs are the same tempo, for example, Allegretto vivace (fairly brisk and lively), without their bpms matching exactly, or without their having consistent bpms (plenty of songs do speed up and slow down). If you’re specifying bpm, you probably have a reason to; you might be trying to make a mashup, where it’d be inconvenient if not disastrous to combine two songs with equivalent tempi but slightly different bpms.
Analogically, if two people are the “same height”, they might be level to the naked eye or to a relatively well-calibrated measuring instrument, and they can for example both be pallbearers at the same funeral, but you’d probably want to know how many millimeters tall each one was if they were both going to, say, stand on a level surface under the surprise shot of a deadly horizontal laser (and we might try to stand behind the one with the extra 2mm).
I appreciate not only that you explained this in a way that I, a non musical fool, can understand, but also your incredibly gratuitous and yet desperately needed use of deadly horizontal lasers.
People are always excited about how ants can lift way more than their bodyweight but I’m not impressed. I can lift dorito crumbs too its not that hard
If ants were really strong then they’d be able to grow bigger without being crushed by the weight of their own stupid exoskeleton

If you ask yourself “Would Gomez Addams treat me this way?” And the answer is no, move tf on from that situation.
If you’re a wlw ask if Morticia would ever treat you this way.
If the answer is no, move on.
“Is this how an Addams would behave?” Is the best way to make sure you’re being treated fairly and with love
