This happened almost 2 months ago. I am pleased to see all the bee puns again though.
Nature is healing.
- Luibee
When are we going to see photos of the shackled bee in an orange jumpsuit, accompanied by a 1000 heavily armed Storm Troopers?
Blessed be the bee for making the ultimate sacrifice
RIP to Beeuigi who died in the throat of some shitty guy playing horse golf
- *horse hockey
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.
Is the bee as dreamy as Luigi?
Little dude makes us honey, AND kills our oppressors?? May you spend eternity in an infinite field of wildflowers.

- Also fills our life, hearts and souls with many years worth of cute buzziness as it went about it's duties.....buzzz buzzz buzzz 🐝
Poor bee 🐝
- She literally died for our sins
  
  Beesus Christ 🐝✝️
The Buzz bomber will never be forgotten!
Damn that's tragic, hope the bee's family is ok
- She is survived by her mother and seventeen thousand sisters.
Finally, the "Bee Movie" and "A Bugs Life" cross over that I've been begging for
I just pictured Luke flying his fighter into the Death Star.
- Seems more like that A-Wing pilot flying into the Executor bridge.
  
  I'm pretty certain it was B-Wing in this case 🤣
I feel for the bee...
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
Boy, they really decided to go dark with the Bee Movie sequel, huh?
- The Snyder Cut
That's so sad to hear! Rest in peace, Bee McBuzzington, hero of the People!
Bee safe everyone
That poor bee
Suddenly bees seem a bit, dare I say... Sexy
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.
Excited for some guys grandchild to see the unclassified docs about the CIA shooting custom bees down people’s throats in 25 years
oh nooooo.
*her
The bee took one for the team.
With any luck, there's a hive of like-minded bees near the White House.
I think we can safely use past tense for 2 month old news.
- I'm kinda pissed that it's playing it like a cello
Story is from June 17th. I thought it sounded familiar since we all read about it when it actually happened.
- Ig I'm one of today's lucky ~~10,000~~ 410
Noice
Moar bees!
Even the bees know, the 1% are at fault.
Doesn't that Bee know you're ONLY supposed to Kill CHILDREN in Schools or Refugee Camps?
That’s gotta sting!
Honeycombrade
Thought this was /c/uplifting news for a minute there!
Bees have always been comrades of the working man.
Beegi!
hero bee o7
☺️
"News" that's 2 months old, lol
- It took that long for Vice to write that title.
and bee makes three.
Anyone getting Gary Oldman monologuing in the Fifth Element vibes?
Oh, for shame!
- Don't use AI slop, please.
  
  Don't say anyone what they can or not to do, please
- Don't use AI slop, please.
Explain why you hate prince William again?
The money will just go to his family. A single rich person dying is meaningless.
- One less, is always a good thing in my book. The family BTW, is in a big feud over the inheritance, so maybe they will eat themselves, or we could always send in more bees. 🐝
