Don't start shit you can't finish, spider.

It would like to finish the argument, if the bee would just come a little bit closer...

Jumping spider says, "not me! I'm a free spirit, and people think I'm cute!"

Super cute and fuzzy wuzzy until it's jumping spider season, and they're in the house, and jesus goddammit jumping spiders, I just cleaned up this shit, can you not web up the entire kitchen every fucking morning? Tiny ass Cirque du Soleil across the light fixtures, every damned day! Cute little shits.

Very off topic, but I glanced at your name and heard that damn "dunk" sound.

Hooray! I think! Cause that is correct.

When my focal seizures weren't as well managed, one of the closest descriptions I could give is it often feels like experiencing various Windows error noises. Like, all varieties of them, from '93-XP, fit the bill. Occasionally, it's dragging the multiplying, cascading window that won't respond, across a teeny screen of barely available conciousness. Meds make me feel pretty dumb, and some errors still get through, but I don't dunk, donk, dink, or bonk so much!

I feel bad for the spider now smh.

That spider wants to puke up into that bees insides, so not only is it an entomocidal maniac, it’s also a hypocrite.

Damn, too much empathy.

Do spiders wander far from their net? Not as far as bees obviously, I'm just curious.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago

There are a lot of different types of spiders. Some don't spin webs at all, some create little nets of web, and others create huge web residences. Spiders are fairly ubiquitous, the entire world over.

Except for the ones that live in huge communal nets, they have to go out at minimum for sex.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

pretty sure most spiders (most species at least) don't even make nets, they just use the silk like climbing ropes and stuff.
