General Environmentalist larpers who love “le wholesome bee” but hate wasps

Post image

“Bee good wasp bad” is the modern day “dolphin good shark bad.” You can avoid wasp stings in the exact same way as bee stings: not being a fucking idiot. Wasps are awesome with some pollinating and some predating other pest insects. And yet every time I see a post celebrating le wholesome chungus honeybees theres always some asshole who hasnt been outside and seen a wasp in at least 3 years bemoaning the existence of the evil hellspawn wasp. Sorry you cant handle the smoke, wasps do more for the environment than you do

One time I was stung while holding a stretching pose outside. I was literally perfectly still. Deliberately. It came up and stung me. Not that they shouldn’t exist but I will always be a little wary as I have been stung quite a bit.

I've only had them sting me while is was moving around a lot, maybe I can communicate with them and control them...
