Murder hornets. They have a damn season and apparently it's right around the corner. Goddamnit 2020, why are you still lingering?!

PLEASE NOTE: None of the above are murder hornets. Please leave them the hell alone, because they are very important to the environment!!
Murder Hornet compared to a honeybee
You know, I've never actually seen a hornet in real life. They might just not be as native in So-Cal where I'm from, but yeah.. hornets are never good and murder hornets are even worse.
I'll be staying indoors forever now, ty.
There was a wasp at work yesterday!!!! I didn't get stung, which is fortunate. I would have had a severe reaction, possibly anaphylaxis. I need to get to the doctor to get an Epi-Pen but I keep putting it off :(

we get yellowjackets here in Southern California. Yellowjackets attack humans just for fun.
Urgh, yellow jackets. Pretty glad I've never come across one. I'm probably just lucky that I've never actually come across a wasp nest.
Oh boy. I think there's a The Dollop episode on these things.

Kind of funny, but I've had wasps literally next to my front door and they never bother me. They just zoom out, float around a bit and go back. Me: leaves house Wasps: "Oh, it's you. Cool"
I think I might have to invest in a few zapper rackets for these murder hornets, though. >:[
When murder hornets attack, bees will make "shrieks, fear screams and panic calls" to help their colony survive.

Those might be paper wasps. It's very rare for those to attack I think. We had some living near the house this last summer. Nervous around them still, thanks to getting attacked by a yellowjacket quite a few years back, but they don't mind my presence and it was kind of cute seeing them land on the ground to drink sprinkler water.
I try not to think. It interferes with being nuts.
