It's the only way to be sure.

I'm not at all arachnophobic - I'll often pick spiders up with my hand to put them outside - but I don't think I could let this one crawl on me without crying.

[–] MyFriendGodzilla@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

They're like jumping spiders that cant jump... pretty chill ladies i believe.

[–] AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago

I don't think that changes anything.

No one's commented anything that indicates to me whether or not this is real. If so, what's the species?

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 0 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (2 children)
[–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Any idea what specific species? Looks like there's a lot of velvet spiders from that wiki.

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 0 points 5 months ago

I updated the comment. Eresidae; Gandanameno sp.

[–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 0 points 5 months ago

Oh dang, I thought the title was just a cute description.

[–] TPTheWiper@feddit.org 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Female velvet spiders exhibit a remarkable type of maternal care unique among arachnids. Upon the birth of her brood, the mother spider liquefies her internal organs and regurgitates this material as food. Once her capability to liquefy her insides is exhausted, the young sense this and consume the mother.

what a terrible day to have eyes

[–] fireweed@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago

For the curious, the original text says "cute" in Japanese (the infamous "kawaii")

[–] hopesdead@startrek.website 0 points 5 months ago

Did humans inadvertently body shame a spider?
