  Oh man, someone start spreading fire ants as a cure for something. This administration would be all over it.

      I’d agree, but the joke was funny.

      Does this joke make you feel uncomfortable?

      If so, can I recommend some ants?

    this administration

    Based on the other comment you mean the US government? Do you just assume everyone on the internet is American?

      Although I kind of agree with you, I feel like everyone knows when someone refers to this administration as being US in relation to extremely dumb shit at this point

      Genuine question, do other countries refer to their current government as “this administration” or “the [leader] administration”?

      In my exposure to non-US political discussions, there seems to be more reference to the majority parties or coalitions, where that’s more important to politics than it is in the US with our far-too-powerful executive branch

    If only bullet ants were a thing here, we could use those instead.

    They’re the same thing

    • Dasus@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Uhm, no, not the same thing.

      That’s like saying “pasta” is the same as “spaghetti”. Spaghetti is pasta, like jackdaw is a crow, but “crow” is contextual. Where I live, it means the European hooded crow, but in Australia, it wouldn’t. Just like pasta can refer to spaghetti or macaroni.

      en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crow

      A crow is a bird of the genus Corvus, or more broadly, a synonym for all of Corvus.

  This is super cool and I’d definitely tuck it away for later use if I weren’t allergic to fire ant venom.

    I mean they use 24 species of ants, I doubt all of them are fire ants if any at all

    i don’t think fire ants piss acid as a form of defense? the post is about ants that spray formic acid at scary things, not being stung.

      We Finns actually also practice it.

      Not too common, but definitely not unheard of.
