Yeah I Got That Message Too But A Different Name (think It Was Jazmine) And Slightly Different Wording

@moonthemagical look it's bees

Okay, entomology brain is annoyed by a Tumblr ad

Specifically, this one. First, Albert Einstein never said that.

Secondly, and more importantly, that is NOT a honey bee, or even a bee at all. That is a bee fly, a very important, very cute pollinator. However! They have parasitoid larvae! This means that they lay their eggs in the larvae of other bugs. Those eggs hatch, and those larvae eat the bug they’re in from the inside out. Sounds horrible, but it’s the way of things and I cannot understate how important these guys are.

The reason I’m annoyed about the picture of choice isn’t even that they didn’t picture a bee (not even in the right order- bees are hymenopterans. Flies are diptera.) What’s really grinding my absolute gears about the choice here? Bee flies parasitize bee larva.

If you’re going to use the wrong picture, at least don’t use the picture of something that actively kills what you’re trying to protect instead of the animal you’re protecting.

Also, honeybees, Apis mellifera, don’t need protection. They’re fine. They’re invasive in North America, even. Humans take care of them just fine. I’m a beekeeper, and I love them, but that’s not where our efforts should be. We should be trying to protect native bees, there are a whole bunch that I bet you’ve never heard of that need help.

Anyway, rant over. Sorry, I just could not let that one go.

My Annoying, Homophobic & Misogynistic Classmate (i hope this doesn't become a series)

So, there's this guy in my science class who sits next to me. My science teacher changes our spots every month so I'm gonna be stuck with this guy for the rest of the month.

But, how is he annoying, homophobic & misogynistic, you ask? Well, today in class we were learning about the pros & cons of asexual and sexual reproduction, when someone in my class asked about surrogates.

My science teacher explained very well, talking about in vitro fertilization, and explaining how else it worked, how the egg is fertilized in a lab and whatever. Then, the Annoying Classmate asks why people actually use surrogation. My science teacher then explains that the most common reason is if the mother isn't able to carry the child, or give birth, or is sterile. And would you guess what the Annoying Classmate said to me?

He said, word for word: "If I was a girl and that happened to me I would just give up."

Like, okay??? Did I ask you?? Did you have to tell me???

Also, during the lesson, he turned around to some guy behind him, stuck out his hand, and said:

"Give me a handshake if you're homophobic."

I wasn't able to see what happened, because I was trying to take notes, but then after a few seconds, Annoying Classmate says:

"Glad we have something in common."

I can't believe I have to sit next to him for the entire month.

Hope this doesn't become a series, but I'll update you if he does anything else annoying or controversial, if ya'll wish.

SHEEPIES!!!

My “draw the squad” memes so far

If you support gay marriage reblog this. If you're on the homophobic side, keep scrolling.

As a bisexual, it sickens me that some people WILL keep scrolling.

Came back from a music event an hour ago and my ears are STILL ringing.

Great.

Okay, so 'Million To One' by Camila Cabello from the Cinderella soundtrack is actually great? It reminds me a lot of 'A Million Dreams' from The Greatest Showman, with the piano and general message, but it's different with the acoustic guitar. I also just LOVE the vocals! Anyways, here's the link to the official audio if you wanna give it a listen.

Lop Rabbit named Rupert. Around 1 year old. August 2021.

has @le-petite-ivy or @moonthemagical been tagged?

!!PLEASE STOP SCROLLING AND READ THIS!!

There's something called a KOSA Bill in the US. It's a project planning to cut off internet access to ALL CHILDREN WORLDWIDE. This means they are banning Chai/C.AI, Wattpad, AO3, Discord, Tumblr, Tiktok, etc.

To make matters worse, parents will have access to their children's internet activity, meaning chats, websites visited, apps opened, etc. Giving them NO privacy whatsoever. Esp. children who are LGBTQIA+, because in the US, it is deemed "inappropriate".

There is a solution to this, however only to people who have Tiktok, there is a user named omarsbigsister, if you check their profile, you can see in their bio it says "STOP KOSA!! ⬇️⬇️"

Below the text, there's a link. Now before you click on the link, there's a video you need to see, giving you instructions on what to do.

This is the video.

Plz do WHATEVER you can to boost this, tag friends, reblog, share, anything will do.
