My friend is in Japan, keeps getting this ad, and it’s driving them nuts (they also says the company is worse than BetterHelp, apparently).

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moth_trap

    “Moth traps are devices used for capturing moths for scientific research or domestic pest control. Entomologists use moth traps to study moth populations, behavior, distribution, and role in ecosystems, contributing to biodiversity conservation and ecological monitoring efforts. Homeowners, on the other hand, employ moth traps to protect their homes from moth infestations, particularly clothes moths and pantry moths, which can cause significant damage to textiles and contaminate stored food products.”

        Yes, the things you wear every day as a necessary part of existing in society, sleep on as a necessary part of continuing to exist, and use to survive through the winter.

          yeah i mean i do have to wear clothes, but ima be honest i wouldnt be doing it if i werent being forced to at gunpoint. and i certainly don’t need to sleep on textiles to exist, in fact i had planned to transition to sleeping on the floor but i was given a mattress so i continue to sleep in a bed through pure inertia.

          and i live in the deep south all i need to survive through winter is basic shelter
