how do u actually save bees?

[viva-la-bees]

Plant bee-friendly flowers

Support your local beekeepers

Set up bee hotels for solitary bees

If you see a lethargic bee feed it sugar water

Spread awareness of the importance off bees

[l0veyu]

+Don’t eat honey✌🏻

[ogaycanyousee]

NO.

That will not help save the bees at all. They need the excess honey removed from their hives. That’s the beekeepers entire livelihood.

[libertarirynn-deactivated202006]

Seriously refusing to eat honey is one of those well-meaning but ultimately terrible ideas. The bees make way too much honey and need it out in order to thrive (not being funny but that was literally a side effect in Bee Movie). Plus that’s the only way for the beekeepers to make the money they need to keep the bees healthy. Do not stop eating honey because somebody on Tumblr told you too.

[jumpingjacktrash]

excess honey, if not removed, can ferment and poison the bees. even if it doesn’t, it attracts animals and other insects which can hurt the bees or even damage the hive. why vegans think letting bees stew in their own drippings is ‘cruelty-free’ is beyond me. >:[

the fact that we find honey yummy and nutritious is part of why we keep bees, true, but the truth is we mostly keep them to pollinate our crops. the vegetable crops you seem to imagine would still magically sustain us if we stopped cultivating bees.

and when you get right down to it… domestic bees aren’t confined in any way. if they wanted to fly away, they could, and would. they come back to the wood frame hives humans build because those are nice places to nest.

so pretending domestic bees have it worse than wild bees is just the most childish kind of anthropomorphizing.

[foxthebeekeeper]

If anything, man-made hives are MORE suitable for bees to live in because we have mathematically determined their optimal living space and conditions, and can control them better in our hives. We also can treat them for diseases and pests much easier than we could if they were living in, say, a tree.

Tl;dr for all of this: eating honey saves the bees from themselves, and keeping them in man-made hives is good for them.

Trans men: you are male. Your body is male. The way you dress is male. Everything about you is male. Trans women: you are female. Your body is female. The way you dress is female. Everything about you is female. Nonbinary people: you are nonbinary. Your body is nonbinary. The way you dress is nonbinary. Everything about you is nonbinary. No matter what anyone says you you are your gender. Everything about you is your gender.

pretty fucked up that brokeback mountain is a horrifically sad movie and yet everyone acted like it was peak comedy

i remember when brokeback mountain was released (before i realized i was gay) and i remember everyone making “i wish i knew how to quit you” jokes and looking back it’s absolutely depressing how people reacted to brokeback mountain

the movie was a depressing look into being closeted and in love and being outed and gay ppl being violently murdered and somehow all straight people took away from it was “it’s so funny because…. they’re Gay…. it’s a Gay Movie”

[plain-flavoured-english]

I remember when Brokeback Mountain came out. It was the joke of the year. People thought the ‘gay cowboy movie’ was the funniest thing they’d ever heard of. SNL had a field day. You couldn’t get away from the ‘I wish I could quit you’ jokes. It wasn’t until years later when I actually saw it that I was like, ‘Holy shit, this is a deadly-serious fucking tragedy. What the fuck, people. What the fuck.’

[empathysuggestion]

one day you will be happy. not constantly, but it will become a theme in your life. you will have days where you feel sad and that’s normal. but eventually you can wake up with a smile on your face even if there isn’t a reason. you’ll see yourself through a clearer lens. you’ll think of the best case scenarios. you’ll find people who you can share your happiness with. you’ll settle into your own body and mind with a sense of security.

the extent to which straight people don’t get gay humour is incredible like the whole thing is a satirisation of how gay people have been treated for years like the reason we say “___ is for gays only” is because yall have been going around calling everything you don’t like gay and we’re making fun of that dumb mindset and taking away the power of it and having fun and yall still come onto every gay satire post with this “what if straight people said this about you” like you have?? that’s why the post was made in the first place i don’t understand how yall are this oblivious it’s honestly baffling to me

it is a privilege to learn about racism instead of experiencing it your whole life.

the president of nigeria is about to fuck boko haram up and cut his own salary in half and criminalized female genital mutilation

the president of guinea built/is building infrastructure and school and wells all over the country and is decreasing youth unemployment exponentially

the president of cote d’ivoire made school mandatory of children ages 6-16 and banned plastic bags while also building ultra modern trasportation infrastructure

the future is for real in africa 

[incandescent-justice]

I think this should have a hell of a lot more notes on it than it does. This is what good news looks like folk, and the continent of Africa surely deserves a shed load of it.

[houseofhaleth]

Today (April 7th) is Remembrance Day for the Rwandan genocide. While Rwanda still faces challenges, their recovery has been incredible. They now have the highest percentage of women in parliament around the world (one of only two countries to have over 50% women), their gross national income has risen each year, and life expectancy has risen from  48 in 1990 to 65 in 2013.

wearing green is gay culture

[thoodleoo]

this may sound like a shitpost but in the 19th century green carnations were a sign of being gay AND in ancient rome, yellowish-green clothing was a sign that a man was effeminate and therefore probably gay, so green is a gay color and only gay people can wear it now
