It’s official: 2024 belongs to the cicadas.

This spring, two different broods of cicadas — one that lives on a 13-year cycle and the other that lives on a 17-year cycle — will emerge at the same time from underground in a rare, synchronized event that last occurred in 1803.

Billions of the winged insects will make an appearance across the Midwest and the Southeast, beginning in some places in late April, for a raucous mating ritual that tends to inspire fascination and annoyance in equal measure. == =


So do I gorge on Cicadas to build up my fat for the upcoming famine, or freeze some (oops needs electricity), or dry some for future sustinance?

Don’t take culinary advice from people who want to kill you.

Exactly.

(Why 2024 is the Year of Insect Dining)

The Godless Globalist World Economic Forum will
bring on the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse -
Antichrist, War, Famine, Pestilence / Death

Along with the rest of the Godless Globalists, including the United Nations

No.

My chickens eat crickets.

Only a heartless monster would snatch food from their little beaks.

Sure, that bus is just taking you to the grocery store. Sure it is.

And you’ll be home for dinner. Sure you will.

You’re probably correct

‘1984’ - no longer just a book and a movie

first they try to make it look fun, cool, hip, and good.

Next, they nudge you

Next they force you at bayonet point.

Always progressing to the glorious revolution.
