Bees are a #vegan evolution of wasps - feeding on #nectar and #pollen collected from #flowers rather than on prey.

‘Many eyes go through the meadow, but few see the flowers in it.’
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

@ConversationUK "Pesticide & herbicide use is commonplace & these #chemicals affect the fitness of #bees, causing them to die off. However, not only do these chemicals affect the bees directly, they can also remove important #plants that they rely on for #food causing them to starve. #Dandelions for example, are a massively important #nectar source for bees, but also a plant commonly controlled with herbicides. So don’t weed your #garden & pull them out."

The end is here, and who gets out alive? Nectar #4 from Vault Comics brings us some new horror.

#Alcohol turns up in most floral #nectar, meaning #pollinators are drinking tiny cocktails without ever getting drunk

“Leicestershire Police signed its contract with Palantir back in October 2024, for an eye-watering £818,750. It was the first UK police force to sign a deal with the US-based firm. The East Midlands Special Operations Unit (EMSOU), an organised crime and counter-terrorism grouping, also had a hand in the agreement”

In this case preference is to move her to a nearby source of #nectar - a #flower!
If no flowers are nearby she can be offered a 50/50 mix of white sugar and water.

Today's "fun" is that someone made two purchases in Uxbridge Sainsburys using my #Nectar card. First of 7000 points and then 8500 leaving my balance at *minus* 6634.

There seems to be two morals to this tale:

1. balances aren't updated in real time so it's possible to "overdraw"

2. the only validation on a purchase is the QR code of your card number. So a perp can make one and try it and repeat until they find one that works.

How does plant based meat compare in taste with regular meat. NECTAR, a nonprofit initiative working to accelerate the alternative protein transition, conducts an annual "Taste of the Industry" sensory analysis of plant-based meats within the US. You can find the one page summary here.

Keeping with the male bumblebee theme:
Male #bumblebees do not forage for #pollen and #nectar for the colony but rather forage exclusively for nectar for themselves to maintain energy for mating flights and mating!
