can live on […] soil nutrients
Except they don’t. Carnivorous plants evolved in soils that are poor in nitrates and/or phosphates, so they get them from their preys.

Lol you think my neglected pots are better environments
No but we’re positive all the flys will sustain them
Zing
I had a potted venus flytrap. It did not survive a week.
Did you buy it from target or something?
Is Target selling knockoff Venus Flytraps?
More like put them in a pot or environment that isn’t suited for them.
they don’t need those nutrients in an environment where those nutrients are just a available to them
And so do many humans. What’s your point?
I think the point is that carnivorous plants are the closest species to humans in the animal kingdom.
Are you saying carnivorous plants are in the animal kingdom?

Would if I could but this damn stomach needs to have shit in it
Tried this. Not insignificant amount of powder ends up in your lungs.
Venus fly traps know what they look like. They could either reject the image and have to fight that fight for their whole lives, or embrace it and take the title as the most metal plants in the world.
So you’re complaining about not having enough flies in your house?
Fun fact: The fly trap closing is one of the fastest movements in the plant kingdom.
I could perform photosynthesis.
But what if I don’t want to?
