Collecting sex-crazed zombie cicadas on speed: Scientists track a bug-controlling super-sized fungus.
With their bulging red eyes and their alien-like mating sound, periodical cicadas can seem scary and weird enough.
Holy title, Batman!
Aren't cicadas already sex-crazed?
"... and the Sex-crazed Zombie Cicadas" awesome name for a band
I would also keep the "on speed" part. Even if the band aren't users
WTF? He tasted one "for science"! While I understand there wasn't any other way to know... What if it Hay been a poisonous mixture? I suppose he'd tested it before against common poisons! Still, wow!
Of course he knew it was safe before he tried it. He's a scientist, not a daredevil.
And I wish people would be less against eating insects. If they ate more insects for protein and less beef, we would have much less of a problem. Just using cricket flour for more protein in our American carb-heavy diets would be helpful. And no, you won't be picking legs out of your teeth.
That’s true. Cricket farts are still a concern, but they only produce 20% of the methane that cows produce in relation to protein. Mealworms fart, but don’t produce any methane at all. If you’re not interested in trying a vegan diet, insect protein is far better for the planet than beef.

I stopped reading after the bullshit that is

You feel very strongly about something that is not widely agreed upon.
I suffer ADHD and Adderall (amphetamine) is a cure for alot of people who have it. Calling it the street name of an illicit drug makes treatment infinitely harder for other people who suffer it.
While the treatment doesn't work for me (high blood pressure and naturally easily agitated), if I don't stand up and say 'hey that ain't fucking right!' then I haven't done a god damn thing to help my fellow ADHD kid and that don't sit right with me.

Speed is colloquial for both, altho I would argue it more commonly refers to vanilla racemic amphetamine (levo and dextro 50/50)
