There is a cicada taped to a surface - that's animal abuse, unless it's a dead one.

To be honest I never would have considered that somebody actually taped a live insect to something, just on feasibility alone, before these comments

It wouldn't be hard to do with a cicada. It probably is a dead one, though.

There aren't much cicadas where I live, so I don't know how hard it is. The last time I heard one was probably when I was eight

Yeah, of course it is. That's why your objection comes across as quite bizarre.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

Because it could be a live one. We don't actually know.
