Oh wow! She has both purple and green! I had never seen that before!
Big diamonds get caught in everything and I'd be paranoid about losing it!
Honestly, a lot of wedding traditions are idiotic! LOL! You pick the ones that speak to you and your future spouse, and screw the rest!
Whoa! You really captured the eyes! Awesome!
They are adorable! So expressive for such a small creature!
Boo, the Phidippus Audax enjoying a crunchy cricket.

A mostly black jumping spider standing on a blue bottle cap beat the roof of the enclosure, holding a brownish beige cricket in its mouth. The cricket is close to the same size as the spider.

"They're trying to convince people they can't do the things they've been doing easily for years - to write emails, to write a presentation. Your daughter wants you to make up a bedtime story about puppies - to write that for you." We will get to the point, she says with a grim laugh, "that you will essentially become just a skin bag of organs and bones, nothing else. You won't know anything and you will be told repeatedly that you can't do it, which is the opposite of what life has to offer. Capitulating all kinds of decisions like where to go on vacation, what to wear today, who to date, what to eat.
People are already doing this. You won't have to process grief, because you'll have uploaded photos and voice messages from your mother who just died, and then she can talk to you via AI video call every day. One of the ways it's going to destroy humans, long before there's a nuclear disaster, is going to be the emotional hollowing-out of people." - author and filmmaker Justine Bateman from a piece by Emine Saner for the Guardian
The name fits her like a glove!
I got peanut beetles from my local reptile shop. The larvae are smaller than mealworms and the perfect size for jumping spiders, even juveniles.
Relatable! I'm torn between cross-stitch and crochet at the moment. But also, so many good indie games came out this year!
I KNOW, RIGHT? Every sound these characters make fill me with joy!
Trying and failing to look spooky!
Photoshop tiny Spider-Man suits on your spiders! LOL
It looks awesome! Totally worth the wait!
Yeah! I have burnouts because I lack time management skills and not... you know... because management keeps cutting our budget, while constantly making decisions that add more work on our plate! I get told how lucky I should feel for my ridiculous pay raise because most of my team got nothing! Yay.
Creeeeepy! In an awesome way!
Happy indieniversary!!! Thank you for all the discoveries!
I can't wait to see his grown up colours!
They think we can’t talk! *rolls eyes
Aaaaaaaaaaah! I had never seen this one! It's impossible to be this cute! She can't be real!
What can I say? I'm a massive Trinket fan! ❤️
The only thing I don’t like about zebras is that you don’t really see their adorable features unless you REALLY zoom in! ;)

I feel watched…

Boo, the bold jumping spider has her tank right next to my computer desk and she spends all day hanging out at the entrance of her hide watching the human’s every movement! LOL
A small black and brown jumping spider with metallic green chelicerae is sitting in the entrance of a hide made from a roll of felt fabric, looking straight at the camera with her beady little eyes.
