I Blame The Movies We Watched Growing Up Framing Black Widows, Tarantulas, And Even Just Regular Spiders

I blame the movies we watched growing up framing black widows, tarantulas, and even just regular spiders as dangerous and unsettling

You know what’s wild? I hear people all the time talking about how they’ve been bitten by spiders. And the truth is that spider bites are so incredibly rare, constantly misdiagnosed. Do your research or ask anyone who studies them. Spiders are simply not out here biting people.

But what’s even more amazing is how adamant people are about seeing spiders as biting people when you know who does bite people? All the time? Ants. Why do people not fear ants? But this fantasy of spiders biting them gives them severe avoidance instincts. Like have you ever sat on concrete. Or in grass. Or outside at all ever? Ants are biting you. That little pinch you felt under your thigh? That’s some little fuckers mouthpieces grabbing your leg my dude.

It just doesn’t make sense to me? Why do people fear spiders but not ants? When ants are so much more likely to walk on your person than spiders, and in many cases will bite you if you don’t know they’re on you. Someone explains this to me. And don’t say spiders are bigger and creepier bc have you seen bullet ants

This is not to throw shade on ants. I think ants are fantastic and beautiful little guys. But seriously why are we demonizing spiders when ants are literally sitting right next to them biting u

Who the shit is that

Patton seems to agree ^^

"The trannies should be able to piss in whatever toilet they want and change their bodies however they want. Why is it my business if some chick has a dick or a guy has a pie? I'm not a trannie or a fag so I don't care, just give 'em the medicine they need."

"This is an LGBT safe space. Of COURSE I fully support individuals who identify as transgender and their right to self-determination! I just think that transitioning is a very serious choice and should be heavily regulated. And there could be a lot of harm in exposing cis children to such topics, so we should be really careful about when it is appropriate to mention trans issues or have too much trans visibility."

One of the above statements is Problematic and the other is slightly annoying. If we disagree on which is which then working together for a better future is going to get really fucking difficult.
