Crowley's Characterization Is Comedic Gold - Finally, David Tennant Nominated

Give the man his well deserved award! He does it all - physical comedy, jump scares, dancing, dark comedy, dry humor - and his delivery is always ON! The variety throughout Season 2 is astounding and the way he plays off of Michael's humor makes this the best double act on TV. When I need a smile and a laugh, I turn to these two. David Tennant, emotional support snake!

Bee -n really busy. I spend most of my art time nowadays working at the day job and when I'm off the clock I've kinda preferred to make wall hangings or paint miniatures. I also finally got married last weekend after a 1+ year engagement, so thats a lot off both me and my wife's minds.

I know we all have theories and intricate conspiracy boards, but this is where we left them.

The "Murder Hornet’s" Invasive Cousin Is Spotted in the USA

A social wasp from southeast Asia (and plaguing Europe for a decade), the yellow-legged hornets’ egg-shaped paper nests are commonly found in trees and house an average of 6,000 workers. To feed these workers, the hornets hunt insects... which is bad news for everyone:

This species prefers to eat honeybees.

Add the larger size of the yellow-legged hornet to their strength and thick exoskeleton, and you get a bad outcome for bees when these hornets attack.

"Vespa velutina are 'true hornets' and are exceptional predators," according to Clemson University's Land-Grant Press.

The vespa genus includes both this yellow-legged hornet and the northern giant hornet, Vespa mandarinia (aka the Asian giant hornet, or, more frighteningly, "murder hornet," for the deadly and violent havoc they wreak on bee colonies).

They're distinct from North America's wasps. Common U.S. insects such as yellowjackets and "bald-faced hornets" are sometimes called hornets, but they're not in the same genus as the Asian hornets. Crucially, those homegrown bugs don't wage gruesome warfare on bee colonies.

Most hornets prey on other insects’ larvae, and many species target nests of other social bees and wasps. The yellow-legged hornet descends upon a bee nest, kills off the workers defending the nest, and feasts on the larvae - true devastation of an entire local honeybee existence.

Note: Please don't go killing insects that look like this bad boy - native wasps and "hornets" might appear the same, but they can help control this invasive species. Report sightings instead.

Vespa mandarinia aka the Asian giant hornet; and by its less affectionate Internet moniker “murder hornet”, is the world’s largest species of hornet! Native to temperate and tropical East Asia, South Asia, Mainland Southeast Asia, and parts of the Russian Far East. First two photos courtesy of @aaiZveGu1X7nWwX (Twitter) who has a wide variety of photos and video clips of giant hornets he tends after. When isolated from a hive body and handled with care they aren’t the monster most make them out to be. All hornets are wasps, but not all wasps are hornets. In the U.S., we have no native hornets. Our main hornet is the European hornet which was introduced into New York in 1840. It looks like a large yellowjacket—about ¾ to 1½ inches long—and nests in the ground or in hollow trees.

The Japanese Hornet. This was as close as I dared to get. They were very large approx 3 inches.
