Watching a pair of flies go round and round aimlessly in my bedroom. They are clearly lost.
Humans are better than flies because shortly after developing flight, we developed air traffic control to avoid this problem.
Flies have been at this for a gazillion years and they don’t have ILS or navigation beacons or anything.
Bit shit of them really. Flies, do better!

in reply to Sarah Brown • • •@goatsarah@thegoatery.dyndns.orgIt amazes me how they will manage to fly into my home through a slightly open window - a one in a trillion chance given the vastness of outside to a fly - but they could literally die trying to exit that same still-open window again, completely forgetting the path by which they entered and hammering themselves into the invisible force field ad infinitum. I had to help one yesterday using a curtain to block off his escapes routes.
Flies, man. Idiots.
