Jumping spiders are so cool. You can probably readily find them if you know where to look, and some will jump on your finger if you just stick it out in front of them. They're super curious and smart, and their vision system is mindblowing (Veritasium video about it, highly recommended!) - and so cute when they swivel around to look at you in the face!

Yeah it's fucked, it's like they know. They know that you are a person, they know you won't harm them, and if you do want to harm them then A) they will GTFO quick, and B) FUCK YOU don't harm spiders you fucking beta ass bitch

This is so true! I know a lot of arachnophobes who are fine with them. I think it’s because they don’t move like typical spiders

They skit around like, they are curious and confident.

We hate wasps because they neurotic as fuck and can't make up their god damned minds, like HEY I'm over here HEY I'm over there HEY I'm back you wanna fight huh huh huh?!?

That last spider image is strong evidence that mimes are a natural phenomenon

Aren't mimes doing the same?

[–] jodanlime@midwest.social 9 points 8 hours ago

I have to confess, I don't know enough about mime biology to refute that.

Sad, that I can't do the same thing

You could always make a gigantic super absorbent polymer bead and wear that to a similar affect

[–] malean@lemmy.world 5 points 2 hours ago (1 children)
