What is this little guy? Looks like an ant leveled up. Online searches don't come up with a good match.

Our Sharp Roku TV just started flickering between a normal view and blurred, ever 2 seconds or so. It only starts doing it after being powered on for a few minutes. No Roku hdmi thing, just a Roku TV. I've tried hard resets...
Any advice?

I've (48) had Generalized Anxiety Disorder my whole life. The past few years, it seems like it's gotten worse. I'm wondering if anyone has experienced this. If so, how are you dealing? My Fluoxetine is no longer helping....
I'm stupidly excited.. My library is hosting a cryptozoologist talking about upstate New York Cryptids!! Dream come true.
So, most of the posts here are hormone/medical focused, but mental health is important, so I wanted to share.
I posted a while back that my artistic side was dying, and I felt like everything was a chore and too much money and just "collecting stuff"...
I've been doing paper mache since, and I AM LOVING IT. Do I know what I'm doing? Nope! Can I explain how I went from crocheting plushies to constructing paper demons? Absolutely not! lol But I'm using leftover boxes and cereal cups from my teen's snacks, off-brand glue for 25 cents a bottle, and magazines I got off a local "free stuff" Facebook group.
So... I just wanted to encourage you to try something new. Especially something with low to no cost and absolutely no guilt if you scrap it.
Cucumber, pepper, and celery with taziki dip (aldi), plus rainbow sauerkraut. Deliciously cold!
I have a bunch of paper bags from Walmart delivery, and a dozen bottles of white school glue. What's the easiest way to turn this into paper mache?
Hello! I am very new at paper mache, and was wondering....
What sort of finish could I do to mute the colors on this mask without getting rid of them? It's just too shiny - I love the antlers though.
Also, does anyone love the medium but shy away from (or just suck at) painting? What is your solution?
Pretty much as the title says, I'm wondering if anyone has a favorite method for smoothing out paper mace before painting it. I'm very new, so my first thought was sanding paper, but.... I'm not sure?
Nothing fancy, but I'm happy with my first project so far! Trying to figure out how I want to finish it, but I love the shape.
Just wanted to thank everyone for making me feel less alone, and stressing the importance of creativity without production or skill.
I'm exploring paper mache because I have all the materials for free, and the media is inherently not perfectionist. I'm enjoying making something with my hands with no investment other than time.
I can't figure out how to share a picture, but it's a lot of fun!
Found low-carb low-cal vegan "tuna" at the store. So far made a "sushi bowl" with the tuna, cauliflower rice, carrots, cucumber, sesame seeds, and sesame oil plus seaweed. Tonight was romaine lettuce with onions, tomato, muenster cheese, and the tuna.
Delicious, filling, and helps with no air conditioning!
I looked on Etsy, but half of the patterns for Winnie the Pooh and Friends looked like AI, and the only one that looked trustworthy was $48.... Which I can't afford. Any suggestions?
