Monarch Butterfly Life Cycle

Monarch butterflies are gothically beautiful.
When they get tired of larval life, you’d think something monstrous is about to burst out of the cocoon — grow absurdly huge, wreck everything in sight, and only be stopped by the U.S. Army.
But no.
Instead, outcomes probably the lightest, gentlest creature nature ever bothered to make; so light and gentle that you never really noticed how antisocial and chaotic butterflies actually are, the moment they take off, you have no idea where they’re headed—if they’re headed anywhere at all.
Maybe they’ll just land two centimeters away, but unlike the anxiety of moths or the arrogance of cockroaches, butterflies just seem to say:
- I don’t know what I’m doing. You don’t know what I’m doing, and that’s okay.
No one slaps an anti-social behavior order on them, we just accept them as they are.
But it’s no coincidence that one of the key theories of chaos is literally called the Butterfly Effect, a simple wing flap sets off a slow, unstoppable chain reaction somewhere else in the world — just like when the U.S. government decides to roll the Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II out of the garage.
As anxious as a moth, as arrogant as a roach, as efficient as a bee, and as aggressive as a wasp — easily the most impressive war machine ever built by humanity’s endless craving for conflict.
The A-10 is also antisocial and chaotic, but it doesn’t pretend otherwise, you may not know which way it’s going, but once it takes off, it will get things done.
Took the eerie "Monarch" by Zero T & Mosus, mixed in "A.S.B.O." by S.P.Y., added "Threads" by Portishead, and threw in a burst of A-10 fire for good measure and I called it BRRRTTERFLIES.
Only the real ones will get it — and be thankful we haven’t been on the receiving end of these steel butterflies, because geopolitics works like that — the bill always comes due, and I’ll never get another chance for a wordplay this good.
