I think this is the first time I've ever encountered an "I like my women" comment that wasn't explicitly misogynistic (outside of the "my women" part).

I got some blue ones off Etsy in my vivarium! Super cool little dudes. Along with the millipedes, springtails and snails I find, they eat all the plant detrius. Being, ya know, detritivores and all.

Huh, I did not know that potato bugs/rolly pollies are called woodlice. I am aware that calling woodlice (heh, new word!) potato bugs is a regional thing, and that term could mean a number of different bugs. Anyways, your comment led me to look up woodlouse out of curiosity as to what blue bugs you got from Etsy, and I learned something new today! Something I probably should have learned 45 years ago, but whatever. Thanks!
