Now that summer is in full swing, you might need this Comprehensive Guide to Yellow Stripey Things, so you can tell harmless bumblebees (you can pet them!) from "asshole" yellow jackets. https://kottke.org/18/08/a-comprehensive-guide-to-yellow-stripey-things

@kottke Thanks for the guide, but I don't expect to be petting ANY bees, regardless.

@kottke as for yellow jackets, I usually leave them a piece of protein to chew a certain distance from my food, so they leave me alone and so do I.
