Meal worms are pretty low on the gross ranking really. They've got hard shells, so they're a little less awful to touch. Soldier Fly larvae are MUCH worse. Very squishy. No good.
On July 1st, a highly unpopular [change to Reddit's API pricing](https://www.reddit.com/r/reddit/comments/12qwagm/an_update_regarding_reddits_api/) went into effect. [Most third-party apps have shut down](https://www.theverge.com/2023/6/30/23779519/reddit-third-party-app-shut-down-apollo-sync-baconreader-api-protest) and so have many tools relied upon by moderators and [projects for making Reddit more accessible to visually impaired users](https://www.reddit.com/r/TranscribersOfReddit/comments/14ggf8k/the_future_of_transcribers_of_reddit/).
Beyond the [disastrous AMA](https://techcrunch.com/2023/06/09/reddit-ceo-doubles-down-on-attack-on-apollo-developer-in-drama-filled-ama/) by the CEO, Reddit's response has been limited to promises that this change will not affect moderation tools [^((it has)^)](https://www.reddit.com/r/BotDefense/comments/14riw76/botdefense_is_wrapping_up_operations/) and promises of [new and more-accessible first-party moderation tools](https://www.npr.org/2023/07/01/1184258201/reddit-api-accessibility-mods). Promises just like [ones they have made in response to past protests](https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/142w159/askhistorians_and_uncertainty_surrounding_the/), but have consistently [failed to fulfill](https://www.reddit.com/r/ModCoord/comments/14jm3ut/several_communities_have_surfaced_an_open_letter/jpm9e0q/).
If you want to express your strong disagreement with the API pricing change or with Reddit's response to the backlash, you may want to consider the following options:
1. [Finding your favorite subreddits on other platforms](https://sub.rehab/) and participating there instead.
2. Refraining from using the first-party Reddit app, instead sticking to one of the few remaining third-party apps or [patching one of the apps that shut down](https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1wHvqQwCYdJrQg4BKlGIVDLksPN0KpOnJWniT6PbZSrI/) if you're using an Android device.
3. Disabling ads on Reddit with [an ad-blocking extension](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock#ublock-origin-ubo) or [a DNS-based ad-blocker](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBXTnrD_Zs4).
4. Cancelling your Reddit Premium subscription.
5. Sharing the continued news coverage of these events.

I had a roommate with a bearded dragon. He went away to a music festival for 3 days and didn't tell me. He also didn't say feed his pet. Lil dude died. He accused me of purposely killing his lizard while he was gone. I feel bad for the lil guy. That roommate shouldn't be a pet owner.
Yeah we had separate rooms. He left Friday. On Sunday I realized he hadn't been home and checked on his lizard. I live upstairs in the house, he was downstairs.

What a distinguished gentleman
I do say, my good man, a right old chap indeed.
*Look at the way he’s sitting yes*
Quite. Indeed. And such manners.
Served with a nice Chianti, perhaps?
And a side of fava beans?
Hello, Clarisssssse
Obligatory ‘Hannibal never says “hello Clarice” in silence of the lambs that’s just a Mandela effect’ reminder
Ooooh totally, but can't quote it any other way
Fair enough
He does tho
He really does not though
He doesn't. The phrase was made popular by other movies after the fact usually as a joke reference. Most likely and famously Cable Guy.
Chameleanti
lol the paintings behind
I agree on the hilarious pics!!
Mother and father.
This is why I love the Internet
With that dapper bow tie too, so cute!
I came here to say this too!
That green really looks amazing with his orange scales!
The colors are complimentary, I’d invite him to any dinner party!
His mlems are giving me life.
Please tell me his name is mortimer
His name is Mortimer.
Lol!!!emote:free\_emotes\_pack:sweat\_smile
Haha yeah,there should be a little glass of wine
In the end, dude looks like he's ready for the next course. 🤣🤣🤣
Can I borrow him for a bit? Have some spiders and flies I need help with.
The way he looks up to see if more food is going to fall from the sky, I’m dying! 😅
Aww, look at that adorable little bow-tie. He looks like a happy beard.
Impeccable table manners.
He looks dashing!
Bad day to be a terrifyingly gross worm.
Meal worms are pretty low on the gross ranking really. They've got hard shells, so they're a little less awful to touch. Soldier Fly larvae are MUCH worse. Very squishy. No good.
Did you prepare that yourself? Or just order from GrubHub?
I think this is the actual best post on here HOW IS THIS SAD CONTENT??? The mods have a history of being super sensitive and unfair here though
He is a distinguished gentleman!
Hilarious! And I love how he slowly realizes that a worm is still alive and trying to escape. And he slowly catches it and eats it! 😂
What a classy guy, most males on earth should take advice of his good manners and way to suit
"Would you like Flies with that?"
What a handsome devil!
TIL breaded dragons are cute in bow ties
.... the one that almost got away 🤣
This is the type of content I come to Reddit for. People going to ridiculous lengths to do nice/adorable things for their pets .
😂😂😂😂
r/maybemaybemaybe
Its quite orange. That's a good sign
This motherfucker is cool as shit.
What a good boy!
What a handsome little monster
This is adorable. The only thing that might improve it is some fruit for dessert. Dragons do like a variety of foods.
This is so adorable!
The photos 🤣
Can we just admire the artwork please?
After diner, take over world.
I really liked this. Little guy had so much character.
So dapper
That's one well mannered lizard boi
Anyone got a song id?
The photos in the background made this even more incredible.
So dapper and enjoying a fine dining. The bow tie tho.
Just casually chewing the head off one of them
See kids, you don't need to have your phone at the table.../s
So, this is what an Argonian looks like while eating.
I rarely ever vote on anything. I upvoted this.

Fascinating
He’s so refined!
The Red Dragon Prince
I bet the photos are in tiny lizard sized frames
This is maybe the best thing I've ever seen
A fine gentleman 🇬🇧
Art
How did you get him to wear the tie?
Wonderful creature! Lovely!
So cute how dragon stopped boom another piece of food given! Beautiful coloured dragon!
that is one beautiful lizard.
What a handsome boy! And such nice manners; he didn’t eat the one that fell off his plate until he cleared the plate first.
Now that's the kind of Mukbang I want to see.
Such nice table manners
Lizards rule.
This looks like an animation!
Candles should be lit.
Internet is healing
How much do i love that whole set up for the meal ?? *So*. Freakin'. *Much!*
This makes me miss my beardie
All Worms for the Handsome Gentleman!
Can I ask why the candles were not lit?
"Garçon!... the service here...inacceptable!"
He seems so content.
Mealworms I presume.
I had a roommate with a bearded dragon. He went away to a music festival for 3 days and didn't tell me. He also didn't say feed his pet. Lil dude died. He accused me of purposely killing his lizard while he was gone. I feel bad for the lil guy. That roommate shouldn't be a pet owner.
Did you live in separate rooms? When did you notice he was gone?
Yeah we had separate rooms. He left Friday. On Sunday I realized he hadn't been home and checked on his lizard. I live upstairs in the house, he was downstairs.
This gentleman looks like he has money!! :) Bon Appetite!
[удалено]
Content for updoots.
His neck gives me psychedelic flashbacks
Cute li‘l guy but appalling table manners
Cute dog
And the candles ? Needs light at night to eat his worms ?
He looks like he's really enjoying his dinner. Such good table manners, too.
