When are we going to see photos of the shackled bee in an orange jumpsuit, accompanied by a 1000 heavily armed Storm Troopers?

Nature is healing.

Is the bee as dreamy as Luigi?

I think we can safely use past tense for 2 month old news.

Finally, the "Bee Movie" and "A Bugs Life" cross over that I've been begging for

This happened almost 2 months ago. I am pleased to see all the bee puns again though.

According to Forbes, there are 3028 billionaires in the world as of April 1, 2025. A typical bee hive can have an average of 20,000 to 80,000 bees. I’m just saying that it only will take less than 4% of 1 hive to solve the world’s problems.

Damn that's tragic, hope the bee's family is ok

I thought "Another one??" but clicked through and saw this is from June 17, 2025.

Yeah I thought it was gonna be something like the whales taking out yatchs but bees taking out super rich polo players

[-] Nusm@piefed.zip 55 points 2 days ago

Boy, they really decided to go dark with the Bee Movie sequel, huh?

Excited for some guys grandchild to see the unclassified docs about the CIA shooting custom bees down people’s throats in 25 years

Suddenly bees seem a bit, dare I say... Sexy

[-] 4grams@awful.systems 26 points 1 day ago

He deserves a goddamned posthumous award. There will never a death more ‘billionaire’ than this. I mean this is cartoon level, over the top, absurdist level perfection.

I mean tell me, if you just saw the headline “Man dies after swallowing a bee at a Polo match” that your reaction is anything but “I wonder which billionaire that was.”

It gets even more comic-book villainous- he asked his mother to slap his then wife because she didn’t fit into a dress, while she was pregnant! What a good guy for not hitting a woman though, that’s totally the spirit of that advice.

That poor bee

[-] ExtremeDullard@lemmy.sdf.org 28 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

The bee took one for the team.

With any luck, there's a hive of like-minded bees near the White House.

[-] njm1314@lemmy.world 28 points 1 day ago

Story is from June 17th. I thought it sounded familiar since we all read about it when it actually happened.
