    Clad in rags, running through the jungle with my sisters. Nothing can stop us. We eat what we find. We fight each foe we face. We come in many sizes and we do not build houses or dig nests.

    At nightfall it is the bivouac.

    Our house is our bodies. Our house is a body. Sometimes I cradle a young one as I run. Sometimes I ride with mother ready to bite.

    The walls of our house can bite. The skin of our body has mandibles.

    We flow, the ant-birds singing of our coming. As an army, as one.

    The longer you stay with them the more tattered they get... so you too will forget... that other life. Before The Colony.

    Are you familiar with the ant chapter in T H White's “Sword In The Stone”?

    @futurebird wait, is "Ender was the bad guy" controversial? I thought humans being like irredeemably in the wrong was pretty explicit..

    @futurebird important question: a bug's life vs antz, which is worse to you?

    @goaty

    Bug's life.

    Antz is so strange and a little creepy it is almost charming... almost...
