RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

The local species of squash bugs. They're a lot like stink bugs, when you disturb them they emit what's commonly described as "a foul odor". Except that foul odor in this species smells like a super concentrated artificial tutti-frutti bubble gum scent to me. It's overpowering to the point that it almost burns your nostrils at first, but it fades super quickly and doesn't linger like regular awful stink bug smell.
