The Cards used in divination pretty much mean whatever you want them to mean as long as you stay consistent with their meanings. That is why every cartomancer has their own unique system for reading cards.

They must be raking it in

Some bees can sting you more than once. The one I had up my tshirt stung me five times before I got it out. I always thought that bees left their stinger in you and basically kill themselves ripping their bodies away. But apparently some don't.

That the lovely Christmas song Dulci Jubilo is about 700 years old. Wow, it's the oldest song I have on my phone and I thought the songs from the 1800s were the oldest I have on my phone.

Today I tried Zulip, which is sort of like Slack, but it's Open Source. There's a learning curve. It has many bells and whistles. Is a geek's playground.

I agree about Mario being an animal abuser. He leaves poor Yoshi behind to fall off a cliff at the end of each level.

What about Tails? I know Sonic is an animal too, but in the original games he leaves Tails to die many many times. Also Tails is an 8 year old kid, so it's child abuse, too.

There's this YouTuber in the UK called Whoisthigit, and he's got many "Tails abuse" videos while still being a big fan of Sonic.

There are people dumb enough to think that a person with mobility issues can be a cashier.

I think that's limited to honey bees.

Bumble bees can sting repeatedly.

There's also stingless bees.
