Clothing and identity in Good Omens
Angels and demons are color-coded. Angels wear gray, taupe, and white; demons wear black and dark shades of red or blue or burgundy or similar.
In Heaven, clothing also carries connotations of rank. Aziraphale's modern-day phalanx has a kilted uniform; so does Muriel (with the cutest gold-accented saddle shoes I think I have ever seen). The archangels wear pantsuits. Similar design distinctions are apparent in earlier eras; in the Job minisode, Muriel's robes are simpler and have lesser gold accents than Aziraphale's, and Aziraphale's have less gold than Gabriel's and Michael's.
The color thing is so calcified in Heaven that Crowley gets away with his staggeringly hideous bee!demon disguise; Michael and Uriel walk right by him and don't realize who or what he is.
The archangels take Gabriel's clothes away because he's been demoted. He ends up naked because he absconds from Heaven before they can mindwipe him and give him clothing befitting his new 38th-level rank.
Clothing also stands a good chance of being why the archangels (except, in my view which is not shared by everyone, Saraqael) don't recognize the Metatron, who walks into the bookshop in a black suit, black overcoat, black tie, and black shoes. (White shirt, admittedly.) He's not wearing angel garb!
(The Metatron has contempt for everyone and everything and every system. He's trolling the archangels because he despises them and enjoys making them look foolish. Extremely punchable guy, the Metatron.)
Here's the funny bit, because Gaiman and Finnemore are masters of the delayed-reaction funny bit. When Crowley goes up to Heaven in his demon-black garb and explains about bees and camouflage, Muriel protests: "But you don't look like a bee! You look like a murder hornet, or a snake!" (In passing, I love Muriel's interest in Earth fauna. Geese are big cross ducks!)
We all know Crowley's a snake.
That leaves the extremely punchable Metatron looking like the murder hornet. How very fitting.

Giant Hornet: My horoscope said something had to change today. I would wake up and start that diet, strengthen my resolve to quit smoking, behead less bees, and so on. I don’t know what I want to change into though. If something has to change today I think it might be my subscription to horoscope.com. I only signed up to impress a lesbian.

So it’s Valentine’s day! And I decided to celebrate with some Murder Hornets ship art because I am thinking about them. I did get help from @twigs-sprigs to figure out how to draw this pose so shouting him out for that. These two have...such a dynamic. And despite this art I swear they have a somewhat healthy relationship. Zedeath is just Like that
(reblogs with comments/tags are appreciated. I co-own these designs/headcanons with @micer2012. Thankyu <3)

I still find it funny as hell that Palpatine exploded when he died (both times).
Died like a Metal Gear Solid 3 boss.
*THA PAIN!!!!!!!* *vomits a swarm of burning weaponised murder hornets*

The arrival in North America of Asian giant hornets—nicknamed “murder hornets”—set off a firestorm. The world’s largest wasps (shown above) are native to much of East Asia, but in fall 2019, a small number were found near Vancouver, British Columbia—and two of them showed up in northwestern Washington State.

People that swat cicada killers, and then crow that they killed Murder Hornets, are going to Wasp Hell specifically.

It's been a while since I did a headcanon about Deku, so here's one: he's afraid of wasps. He's especially afraid of the Asian giant hornet.

Brazilian comic depicting Spectreman being overwhelmed by a swarm of intelligent murder hornets.
I keep seeing pictures from these comics with Spectreman’s costume colored blue.  I wonder if the artist/colorist only had black-and-white reference photos, or a black-and-white TV, and just guessed what the costume color was.
