Drums please, Fab

That’s quite a costume. I love this woman’s hair, and her energy…

grandpa: back in my day

me:

grandpa: we didn't have "salt shakers"

me:

grandpa: we had to climb a nearly 90 degree inclines

me:

grandpa: to lick salt deposits off the mountainside

me: why?

yes there is a name for this! necrophoresis is a process with social insects where the bodies are taken to a specific location on the outside of ( or within ) the nest - ants tend to keep them all in the same place, and the way an ant is signaled to be "dead" by its other members is through the release of a chemical called oliec acid

theres even been a few experiments where live ants were coated in the same chemical and other ants treated the live ants....exactly as though they were dead and tried dragging them into the pile
