absolutely hilarious of Hollow Knight to answer the question "why are all the things I knock over back in perfect condition when I re-enter the room", a question that really doesn't need an answer because of how common it is in video games, with "there's a guild of bugs who are fixing things very very fast while you aren't looking"

Interesting find! I was doing some planting and when I emptied out one of my pots, I found an “underground” nest! I poked at it (with garden gloves on) because at first I thought it was an old mantis sac, but was surprised when it fell away and revealed live larvae in combs! I’m mostly interested that it looks like a regular nest I’d find anywhere else.

It was pure luck that I dumped this out and wasn’t hurt. I didn’t even notice a yellow jacket presence at my back door. A few minutes after I started putting fresh dirt in the pot, a couple showed up and started buzzing around to look for the nest. My back porch gardening has been unfortunately cut short for today because I wasn’t going to wait for them to figure out it was me.

I hadn’t seen this before, I imagined an underground nest would be tunneled out like an ant colony. Figured I’d share!

Sure, when a Dungeon Meshi character tells you that eating properly and getting enough sleep is important they're "a self-care icon" and "telling people what they need to hear", but when i, Zote the Mighty,

when people say "ok but x bug has no benefit to nature" I bet they can't even name 5 facts about the bug they're shitting on. so how could they Possibly know what its function is in the environment and if it's "useless" or not

wasps being the perfect example, I still get people saying "oh bees are cute and pollinate :) yay. but WASPS ARE EVIL and they don't contribute ANYTHING!!!" and it's like buddy. wasps pollinate too. they also control spider populations. they do a lot of great valuable things. but even if they didn't, they're still worthy of being here. I see SO much hatred toward wasps and I wish people would try to learn a little more about them.

I'm mainly talking about paper wasps here because these are common ones we run into in daily life and most commonly deemed "aggressive". but wasps have body language. and if you learn to read this language and learn how to properly act around them, things will go a lot better for you! wasps can be curious creatures and they may come up to observe you, especially if you're wearing something brightly colored. this can be startling for sure, but my best advice is to just be still, DO NOT SWAT or wave your arms. try to just back away or sidestep so it loses interest and leaves. swatting is just gonna make them feel as if they are being attacked and increase your chances of being stung.

many stings happen due to unfortunate but accidental circumstances. unknowingly getting too close to a nest, stepping on a wasp on accident, one getting stuck in clothing, etc. I got stung once while gardening, went to pull a weed and the wasp was on it, so I grabbed her without knowing and she stung me because she was scared. this doesn't mean "oh wasps are AGGRESSIVE and EVIL" it means you stumbled into an unfortunate situation where the wasps felt threatened and defensive. instead of being like "FUCK all wasps" go forward trying to learn about common nesting areas, be wary of holes in the ground, wear gloves while gardening, and if you do have to be around a nest, try not to make a lot of noise. if the nest absolutely needs removed, call a professional.
