Great 🧵 which can be applied to Ireland at times. Having lived in California where temperatures definitely exceeded those here, I completely agree with this explanation. It’s just not built for the heat/humidity here.
I'm gonna explain to y'all why Britain considers 78°F/25°C hot. I know hot because I grew up in Texas and spent half my life in Las Vegas. So I am absolutely qualified to explain this to the rest of you who laugh at UK "heat waves".

People asking us about big #bumblebees they’re noticing on the wing at this time of year. Here’s a quick 🙄 thread explaining. Please #retweet as the more people who know that these are queens the more likely that someone will help some out meaning more colonies next year. 1/15

When you see something like this, don't be afraid, don't call the firefighters or the police, don't move and don't kill them. These are just bees traveling and stopping for just 24 hours. Don't disturb them and avoid getting close to them, they won't hurt you. If you want to

Racists in Ireland are sharing this horrific image around today, a collage of 16 female victims of male violence. The captions and hashtags imply this violence occurred in Ireland and/or was perpetrated by immigrant men. I took a deeper look into it and it's utter lies. /1

So let’s talk about #honeybees in the context of ‘Saving the Bees’. Let’s cut the bull & cut to the chase as there’s way too much confusion/misinformation out there which is a hinderance to & detrimental to genuine bee saving. Please #retweet to help the bees that need it! 1/17
