Ari "it's all gravy"<p>My sister just sent me a photo of this giant neon green cicada that's hatching on her porch. We've never seen anything like it! I haven't been able to ID the species yet, as the internet is fairly enshittified these days. Random old and closed Reddit posts aren't going to help me. </p><p>Isn't it amazing, though? I wonder what kind of sound it makes. I guess she's going to find out!</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/bugs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bugs</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/cicadas2024" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cicadas2024</span></a></p>
