I don't think the kind of spiders I'd find with that method at night in Australia would fall under the "cute" label. Jumping spiders are okay because as a general rule, they're tiny and not dangerous, but I've heard about the 8-legged terrors that live in Australia. In other news, did you know that jumping spiders will chase laser pointers like cats? (Links to video) Holy cow that is so awesome. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaymyth Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Friends I have who do not even normally attend GCUU services are now talking about going to God Auction. Cause they want to see me be Bast. (Or, more accurately, they are intrigued by my costume skills and want to see how it all comes out.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I followed it to a cool video (narrated by David Attenborough no less) about jumping spiders on the BBC Earth channel. And from there, I spent most of my school day watching short nature clips. I learned about how hedgehogs mate, what the world's biggest flower looks like, and about a thousand other things. I don't know whether to thank you or curse you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're really good fliers. Unfortunately I was unable to find a video, but I've seen it in person and boy, it's entertaining! They're only like an inch long as adults and sorta look like a large-ish moth from a distance. I did, however, find a nice video of an adult male Spiny Flower Mantis. I had the opportunity to raise a couple of these and they're also tiny, but stunningly beautiful as adults! They look like ants when newly hatched, though, because they're completely black and so itty bitty. Video spoilered because it contains close-ups of mantis faces, which I know may creep some people out. Spoiler 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where it got super weird is when my wife decided to start drawing objects instead of people. She drew an apple tree and it's algorithm tried to turn the apples to eyes. She drew a dollar bill and it was a weird hellscape wallpaper made from flesh. It's... Something for sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WizzyLizzy Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 So I recently found out that hand fed birds think they're human. So when they fly into a mirror on accident, then they blame the bird for getting in the way. It's also why they don't get why they can't eat what you're eating, cause "they are a human too". Cool, right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
