You can buy Triops eggs for your kids and let them grow in a fish tank. It's a great learning experience because when they get big, they start eating each other until only the biggest and strongest one is left. Perfect example that nature doesn't give a shit.

Those critters are called Daphnia Lumholtzi, they were recently discovered in Utah.

I'm 99.9% sure those are not water fleas. For starters they are WAY too big to be Daphnia, and someone else below gave the correct genus. They are "triops" - just look it up!

Related to horseshoe crabs or just look like them?

Maybe I should ask Daphne Lumholt.

Says those are 2 to 3 mm. The things in the video are much larger.

Geddy Lee is definitely a kike, but Niel Pert was cool as fuck.
Alex Lifeson is super talented though. Really I only have a problem with Geddy.

Even the scenery looks surreal

Be careful, those look like the face sucking, parasitic, mind altering critters from rick n morty. Lol

better than sports ball.

dont shame me for my degenerate form of entertainment.

i go to the confessional after every episode. sometimes i say a hail mary and two our fathers before hand as a preventative measure. i officially record the prayers and e-mail them directly to St. Peter for the record, im getting in, through the pearly gates even if i have to sneak in the back door with the maintenance crew.

cheating god, that is the jewiest thing i have ever typed. i just might be going to hell after all.

IN NOMINE PATRIS, ET FILII, ET SPIRITUS SANCTI, AMEN

My reaction was due to missing the obvious reference to Alien and jumping straight to a derivative.

Some of that show was okay, even if most of it was mindless drivel written by a literal cuck.
