Is there a term for this "live, laugh, love"-esque pop psych BS?

Am summer fae. Hard disagree. The worst part of summer is indoors where they abuse air conditioning to create a dry frigid wasteland.

And wildfire smoke which didn't use to be a thing where I live.

Hm. I think we'd just have to specify our special and unique process only works with water-based paints and primers. Could get away with the hybrid paints though and I think there's good enough hybrid primers to make it work.

I have no idea how to even talk to you. I speak mostly in reference and meme! Shaka, when the walls fell.

One thing I would do is use my water bending powers to open a house painting business (interior/exterior and cabinets). I would promise completely perfect results in 1 day or less with the caveat that the customer cannot be home for 'safety' reasons. Oh! I could partner with an air bender and we could have places completely painted, not a drop spilled, and completely dry in 1 hour or less. Without even over charging people we could do so much volume we'd make bank!

I may or may not be painting right now and hating reality.

Jokes on them, they made me take off my glasses that hide aspects of my wonky face but I wear glasses 100% of the time out in the world. You'll never catch me, copper!

(I know. I just like to think it can't figure out crooked nose vs glasses. )

Wasp, colloquially, is a general term for stinging insects including yellowjackets, bald face hornets, and paper wasps. I have all 3 around my home but primarily yellowjackets and admit I revert to the general term often. It could be a regional dialect habit, my apologies.

I do appreciate all of the information people are giving about how they are handled in Europe. For what it is worth, we do have someone in the home with an allergy bad enough to have an EpiPen always with them. We only clear their nests from the deck (outdoor platform attached to home where we eat/lounge outside during nice weather) or around the front door. I will look into finding a service that will remove them humanely in the future.

Do people just cede territory? Are wasps just not a problem? It's not like I enjoy killing them, and only do to the ones trying to take over my deck by murdering me and my family because they're aggressive assholes.

Agree. Fuck wasps, fuck yellow jackets.

Apparently in parts of Europe residential use of pesticide in this manner is not allowed. But, like, how do they handle aggressive wasps? Natural methods like the original post do not work on those bastards.
