Don't let PETA form your opinions. Plenty of good honey out there. Look for actual local beekeepers (not people selling 'locally bottled honey' because many of those are just buying mass market honey and rebottling locally). I wish that wasn't a thing but it is.

"edit: the source author is quoting PETA. This whole article has zero merit, even if it does contain some real data.

Going to challenge the legitimacy of your source here.

Who is out there killing the bees to harvest the honey? That's not how it works and makes no sense.

Also, 'replace the honey with sugar water'? Yes, sometimes bees get additional sugars, but they aren't "replacing honey".

This reads like someone who got some information and then extrapolated their own details to fit their preconceived agenda.

For the record, I'm a fan of the bees. Vegetarian since the 90s. And I'm 100% against spreading false or misleading information.

Every interview: "oh great! You have a lot of manager experience! We've been looking for somebody with those skills!"

Me: "I'm not really looking to be in charge of people. I find the generational differences too tiring. I can't relate and I'm tired of having to tell children to put away their phones."

And within a year I'm a manager again. Just can't seem to shake it. Which is why every damn job on my resume is manager. At least this time around I am managing things and not people. So a little better.

Its a big part of why plumbers cost money. Like the auto shop guys, a lot of money gets spent on tools that get used maybe once or twice a year, sometimes less. But you must own them to do the work.

You already can't in so many places. I thought it was required to accept cash, but apparently that's only for paying the government.

Nationalize Amazon.

Mark the employees government employees with appropriate benefits. Use the unreasonable profits to fund UBI

After living off-grid for a few years I developed "the look", complete with massive beard. And now suddenly these fucks think I'm one of them.

Quite often have to deal with comments that are quiet and only 'kinda' racist. But I have been handed a card and asked to attend their white supremacists meetings. Unfortunately this always happens at work where I can't respond appropriately.

I can't justify the gas cost to drive as far as my state capital, let alone travel all the way across the country to Washington DC. Not that I could even fly there since I'm not willing/able to get the fancy ID needed to get on a plane and leave my state.

I made a list. It's at home. I should have made a list of things to take to the store so I could put the list on the list.
