  • Wasps are disrespectful. One year, I had a nest right on the corner of the frame on my front door. I left it because there was at most only ever one outside, and it would just look at me, so I figured we had a truce. After about 6 weeks, I’m in the bathroom, and one of these assholes comes flying out from behind the toilet to drive bomb me while I got my thang out. I destroyed their whole community after that.






  • This isn’t discussed enough, likely because it doesn’t have the shock and awe that war does, similar to how the relatively small amount of violent crime hits the news while all the vehicular deaths are mostly glossed over. They rarely actually have any effect on the rulers, yet they devastate the populace. Proponents say dumb shit like, “It will cause the people to rebel!” No, it won’t. When you and your children are sick and literally starving, it is difficult to organize resistance, not only physically but also mentally as your cognitive functions suffer as well. That’s also assuming that there is actually a fundamental issue with the government. Many times, sanctions are a cudgel used by western bullies against countries that won’t play ball with extractive economics or other harmful policies. Sometimes, the pain caused to the population is the point because they had the gall to elect leaders the bullies don’t like.
