luxury handset posted:you've really only got to be bitten/stung once by some kind of insect to hate them deeply all insects are vital to the ecosystem. ants kill termites. wasps kill spiders and mantis. spiders kill flies. bees help flowers have sex. I was once bit by an ant in socal that left a giant welt on my big toe. Ants are still cool in my book. Veth posted:The lady down the street from us used to claim she was a "Death Doula Level 1". Mods please rename me "level 1 death doula" I am imagining this as a middle aged woman who bashes your head in with a rock for your assisted suicide. When she reaches level 10 she can give you a pill cocktail that will let you ease into death like a nice sleep. I think when she reaches level 3 and can shoot me to death im gonna give her a call though. snergle has a new favorite as of 03:12 on Jul 21, 2018 |

The non-biting male mosquitoes feed on nectar and are important pollinators, unfortunately.

Aramoro posted:Whilst this is largely true of Bumblebees I can say as a beekeeper this is not true of Honeybees if you go near their hive. They will string the poo poo out of you then hundreds more will come and sting you as well. They can be totally chill a lot of the time but is one bee freaks out and stings you then it can become pretty bad news pretty quickly. Is it possible to breed stingless bees that could still be used for honey/assorted bee products without altering honey output or anything?

In Australian Rules football, you have to bounce the ball every 15 paces to avoid a traveling foul. The games are played mostly in open-air stadiums that attract birdlife to their vast expanses of natural turf. These things very rarely combine, but today they did. https://i.imgur.com/lQoLTI0.gifv
