Damn, bees only live 45 days? Ants last 4 years...i did not expect that :/
PS: turns out wasps have an even shorter life expectancy: 12-22 days :p
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.
Direct Image Links Only Only direct links to .png, .jpg, and .jpeg image formats are permitted.
Educational Infographics Only Infographics must aim to educate and inform with structured content. Purely narrative or non-informative infographics may be removed.
Serious Guides Only Nonserious or comedy-based guides will be removed.
No Harmful Content Guides promoting dangerous or harmful activities/materials will be removed. This includes content intended to cause harm to others.
By following these rules, we can maintain a diverse and informative community. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to the moderators. Thank you for contributing responsibly!

I'm doing all I can
Wasps running hot explains so much about why they are such dicks.
"You think you got problems? I was born last week and I'm having a mid life crisis right now!"

Wow, bees live a lot like us humans, right up to the middle age “well, I guess I’m going to work until I die” mentality.
another cool fact: beekeeping isn't ethical
While not a very helpful comment, its true.
Honey bees displace native bees and pollinators, and are vectors for disease for other bees.
The European honeybee is well and truly naturalized across the world. They've been in North America for 500 years now, the ecology has fully adapted to them.
Lmao
There are unethical ways to do it, but it's not a simple hardline and it hasn't nearly the philosophically strong arguments like other forms of animal keeping have for being unethical.
Can you link me to some good readings on this topic? I'm on a path towards veganism, but still use Honey because I didn't see any major ethical issues with it as I believed it was beneficial for them.
