I have had cicadas en masse. Noisy. But do not bite. If you pick them up, they raise hell! lol. They are not grasshoppers, by the way. They have beautiful wings. Then they are not even around long enough to eat a great deal, either. They die soon after they emerge. You will see their brown cocoons on trees, too.
Cicadas are my absolute favorite insect. You’re right that they don’t bite. They don’t even have a proper mouth. They have a straw like thing that they poke into trees to suck sap/water/whatever out.
Sometimes if you hold them they think you’re a tree and poke you. It doesn’t draw blood and doesn’t hurt bad but it’s startling at first.
The brown shells are also super cool. This is what they molt out of during the final stage of their growth, after crawling out of the ground.
Sometimes you can even find a cicada that hasn’t yet escaped the shell. Those are wild to watch and hold.
I'm not sure of the year but as a child there was a huge hatching. Every tree had hundreds of shells stuck to them. At night the singing was so loud. It has not been like that around here since.
This also caused a huge cicada killer hatching. Might have been the next year on that. I was so young hard to remember exactly when.
This is because different cicads have different dorment periods. But every cicada has a prime number of years of dormancy. This is because cicadas have 0 offensive abilities, and their only defense is to produce en mass and try not to come out at the same time as others. But even several prime numbers can overlap. It just takes a long time.
This is the cicada life cycle. It's not terrible dissimilar from other insect lifestyles except that some species of cicadas that we have in the Eastern US live periodic life cycles on cycles of 13 and 17 years. They got that part right. What they got wrong was assuming they only show up on those times. In reality, there are broods, groups of these critters with staggered cycles in various geographical regions of the US. See the map at the link above. Yes, in 2024, there are 13-year and 17-year broods expected to be active. But this certainly happens far more often than implied by these click baiting hacks at End Times. For example, broods from both cycles were active in 2014 and 2015. And the broods themselves are physically spread across different states. For example one brood will be active in northern Illinois, southern Wisconsin and eastern Iowa while the other will be active in Missouri, southern Illinois, and Arkansas.
This isn't a sign of the coming apocalypse. It's simply nature acting in a normal and predictable way.
Consider, that collectively, their symphony creates a very loud and overwhelming frequency in the area. They set the tone. I wonder what frequency it is? Anyone know?
13 & 17, I need to dig into what is suggested there. Maybe black hat & white hat full info war & trying to figure out which side researchers will fall on?
I really don't know, but it seems worth it to review comms info again.
Remember the Cicada 301 contest years ago where us mil intel was recruiting autists? Then it went quiet. With no solution or winner of the cryptic contest. The name suggests they were recruited for a purpose and would emerge at the appointed time.
Biden will hold a press conference to give them housing, prepaid Visa cards and grant them amnesty.
And then try to shake their hands before pooping his pants and tripping up the stairs...
And Klaus will show up wearing his white beach attire with a jar singing "You will eeet ze bugz".
Then you will eat bugs and like it

Cicada swarms are highly exaggerated. Another nothingburger used to induce mental stress in the population.
The birds are going to love it.
And so are the fish.
The New World Order is all excited. They are going to set up Bug Restaurants.

We get them every year, along with the swarms of cicada killers that look like bees.
Have seen these a few times in my 70+ years, and never stung. An impressive large wasp:

They dig around in the dirt for years on end, then finally come out, live for a few weeks, and then die. Kind of a waste.
I wish the dems were like this.
I suppose the United nations will try to catch them all and sell it to us as a cicada stir fry.
This is fake news. More to the point, it's stupid, fact-absent alarmism with a doomsayer's twist. Why is it fake news?

Frequency = NCSWIC
indeed
I can't unsee potential comms about cicadas.

If they show up they probably won't last very long since I have chickens,
