Royal jelly for queens is stored in special compartments that are constructed specifically to rear a new queen and they drop the larvae in there. Wikipedia has a pic.
Other insects mostly. Technically also birds, but birds are too quick and too strong so the fight is usually over before the bee can sting.
Bees don’t die when they sting. They have a barbed stinger, human skin is elastic and that’s why they get stuck. Our first reaction is to swat or swipe on the site of stinging which rips their stinger off by force. If you leave the bee alone, it will wiggle and twirl around, trying to get itself unstuck and sometimes that is successful, sometimes they’re fucked. The bee didn’t really commit suicide when stinging, you killed it.
Also, did you know that the queen bee has almost full control over their offspring? It works like this: The queen bee only mates once in her life during the nuptial flight and stores the sperm in her spermatheca (like a sperm sac), the drone usually dies in the process because mating tears their endophallus off and the trauma kills him. After founding a colony the queen can now choose whether to fertilize her eggs or not and if she does, a female larva will hatch from the fertilized egg, else a drone larva will hatch through a process called haploid parthenogenesis.
The destiny of becoming a queen or a worker depends entirely on the diet the female larva is fed: all larvae are fed royal jelly (a special secretion from worker bees) for a few days and then worker bees are switched to what is called bee bread which is a mix of pollen and nectar while future queens stay on the royal jelly diet. The royal jelly lets the bees develop their ovaries, making them capable of laying eggs. Technically, all worker bees can lay eggs (which could only produce drones), but in a healthy colony, they will be switched off the royal jelly soon enough so that this rarely occurs.
So, in a way, worker bees can stage a mutiny if they are unhappy with their current queen by feeding a larva royal jelly, rearing a new queen.
Bees are awesome.
I just find it difficult to believe that one can live for 79 years and be that stupid.
The AFO replacement was never meant to be taken seriously, it was just to make the bribery less obvious to his cult. It’s the classic seed of doubt that fascists like to spread, so their gullible supporters and enablers can calm themselves down before the cognitive dissonance that they actually just support/enable fascism sets in. All it was is a ruse, the aircraft was always meant to go to Trump’s “personal library after Jan 2029”.
I don’t understand, is Trump just trying to be an edgelord? Or is it the only thing he has left to convince his cult that he is playing 5D chess? Or is he simply a moron?
It’s not about the form of government, they mainly want to live out their hatred without feeling the reproach of the community.
Add anchovies and that would be the perfect pizza for me.
Prices only ever go up, except (wanted to write eggcept) for raw materials. Supply and demand is a lie.
He was a disgrace in 2016, but it seems like he really turned it up a notch for this presidency. Speaks volumes about US citizens for electing this fool again, too.
I assume the big boys lost more money from the tariff insanity than they made from getting their next tax cut. Losing money is the only thing they do not tolerate because it hurts them in their inhouse pissing contest on who can be the biggest societal parasite.
Yeah, that stems from the original sense of the word. The story goes a bit like this:
In Genesis 19, Sodom is visited by 2 angels and they were pressured by the men of Sodom to have sex with them. This lead to the interpretation of homosexual activities being an original sin, but there are accounts in the bible that it was not meant that way. Mainly Ezekiel 16:49 which reads
Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
So, the sexual advances were likely meant to serve as an example of decadence rather than a stipulation that homosexual activities are sins. But it was simply easier to hate on a marginalized group rather than undergoing the onerous task of actually becoming a better human being.
It means raped or sexually abused nowadays. The biblical term of sodomy encompasses all forms of sexual behavior that would go against the word of the Lord and would thus be immoral, even consensual homosexual activities, but nobody uses it like that anymore.
That is a problem the Zionists introduced tho. By labeling every small criticism against their oppressive and genocidal agenda as “antisemitism”, it blurred the lines and the idiot conspiracy theorists on Twitter get roped into the same crowd as someone asking Israel to stop their genocide.
Being the cave complex idiot.
I heard that first in American History X when Danny said: “I hate anyone that isn’t white Protestant.”
Why are idiots so good at finding completely unimportant things to hate on when they could instead hate rapists or murderers?
I read it as “it’s a shock that she came in second” lol
I took speed once with a friend and he was completely off the rails, I didn’t feel anything. Is that a bad sign?
