Sooo my boyfriend just ordered me Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon, I gotta say, I am far to excited for this to arrive in the mail. I think I’m just excited to play as Marth. FREAKIN’ MARTH GUYS. I don’t know why it took me so long to get this game. I really don’t.
A great article by a professional Arachnologist explaining that if you think you’ve ever been bitten by a spider, you are probably if not definitely mistaken, which is common knowledge to people who understand these animals.
Too bad the idea of spiders regularly biting people is so deeply ingrained in everyone else’s mind.
Seriously you could live in a house with thousands of them and never get bit in your entire life. Not once. That’s exactly the case for one family who lives in a house crawling with recluses.
See also my friend Bug Girl’s (not the same Bug Girl I’m friends with here on Tumblr, a second one!) blog post “WRONG ON THE INTERNET: BOGUS USA SPIDER CHART.”
My favorite fact she points out:
Black widow spiders are found around the United States in large populations, but literally not a single person in America has ever died from one.
It’s not even solidly proven that anyone anywhere has died from a widow.
Fear of spiders is not a natural, understandable defensive response. It is an extremely abnormal psychological quirk inexplicably widespread in just a few countries - primarily English-speaking countries - over only the past century and reinforced by our culture.
Got some magnet paper so I did a test magnet. Gotta say I enjoy it.
It’s had drawn on magnet paper and colored with Prismacolor markers, then a layer of laminate is put on top to protect the art work. This one is about 3” wide.
And I am seriously freaking out in a good way! I just can’t believe that some one just saw my shirt design and spent nearly 30$ on it. I just can’t my god. Ugh so happy so grateful.
I finished that sketch!
I got a Arcanine in my Black 2 game, I named him ShiShi. Flame wheel has always been on of my fave attacks, I don’t really know why.
