Someone “warned me” they would unfollow me if I killed the aggressive hornets that have stung me twice in my yard.
These aren’t honeybees. They are bald-faced hornets. They are very aggressive. They attack over almost nothing. Vibrations. Movement close to their hive.

They actually remember faces.
When they sting, they leave a chemical summoning the hive to swarm.
They are dickheads.

And they are nesting right next to where my neighbors’ boys have a soccer goal - and they are going to kick the ball into that bush at some point this summer.
The problem ain’t bees. I sit with bumble bees all around me on flowering bushes. I leave them alone; and vice versa.

The problem is a growing hive of aggressive hornets of a type that will attack and then swarm if so much as a lawnmower passes nearby - which happens every Wednesday.
They have to go.
Today, they go to hornet heaven.

People who threaten to unfollow on here are just the worst.
Do what you want or else?
Yeah, I’ll take “or else”. Bye.
This ain’t the yard for that.

Trump is leveraged to the hilt. His business is a house of cards built on debt he can’t afford to service.
One tiny push and he would suddenly have to hastily sell off assets in a fire sale… which would make all of his other loans suddenly even riskier to lenders.

High-debt businesses reliant on constant access to credit can go down in flames surprisingly fast.
Happens with retail brands a lot. They eke by until it just implodes. Doesn’t matter how big the retail chain is. Once they are in a credit squeeze, it’s a steep spiral.
