I mean yeah it's a giant snake ball but the worst thing a garter can do to you is stink on you as a means of self defense 😄 They're tiny and goofy and among the few potential pet snakes that can be kept without being fed vertebrates.
They might realise the power of teamwork and together bind me in webs and communally devour me. Now they have a taste for human, are organised and each pregnant with 1500 spiderlings.
I now realise my comment could be interpreted as some kind of spider-furry fanfic, but I assure you I will not be impregnating any spiders under any circumstances.
My kid used to love going for walks in the woods with me.
One day we came across one of these mating balls, and they had never seen a garter snake before. Despite my assurances that these are literally one of the most harmless things you can find in the woods, my kid has never willingly accompanied me for hikes since.
Nah, just a regular noodle ball of nope. Unless they bite you, it gets infected and you choose to ignore it, about the worst a garter snake will do to you is cover whatever part of you is touching them in some stinky piss. Like, leave them alone unless it's absolutely necessary, but garter snakes are pretty chill.
Garter snakes were long thought to be non-venomous, but discoveries in the early 2000s revealed that they produce a neurotoxic venom.[12] Despite this, garter snakes cannot seriously injure or kill humans with the small amounts of comparatively mild venom they produce and they also lack an effective means of delivering it. In a few cases, some swelling and bruising has been reported.[13] They do have enlarged teeth in the back of their mouths[14] but their gums are significantly larger and the secretions of their Duvernoy's gland are only mildly toxic.[13][15]
Fuck all of this. I hate snakes more than Indiana Jones does. Last week I was taking laundry down to the basement and stepped directly onto a garter snake. Horrifying.
I'm my defense, after I stepped on it, I helped it out of my basement. And beyond that, I bought a special snake scooper thingy to help me pick up any snakes in the future. I still have no idea how they get in.
Snake orgy... you learn something new everyday...
Snorgy
Gesundheit.
Death by snu snu
I was perfectly okay not knowing about this
And now you're even better!

Oh god... it even has a name and happens a LOT...
Thanks, I hate it

Well garden spiders also don't pose any harm, but I don't fancy getting into a giant ball of them
That's fair enough
Why not?

That's kinda hot.

This hit my nope reflex hard and now I understand the dislike of nope ropes
Their saliva is mildly toxic so if you're unlucky enough to be allergic you could get an annoying rash from a bite.
Maybe 10k of them slobbering all of you might not be good then
I had one draw blood this spring! Granted, it was barely anything, but it still blew my mind it was capable of doing that.
Jeez how did it happen? Must have felt trapped or something
Picked it up like I usually do. This one was particularly feisty, striking at everything. Got me just right I guess.
They do bite. It doesn't really hurt but it's shocking when it happens.
hey, I (now dead lemm.ee about) posted it first,
they took ma votes
Damn, I'm 4 hours late
NOPE
nope rope
norgy
Snorgy

Terk er jerbs!!
Took what? /s
Der de derrr!!!
Alright everyone...back in the pile.
Indiana Jones hates this.
I'll never look at this scene the same way again.
Neither will he.
Whomp whomp.
Sexy time. I like.
I saw a documentary about this on the archive presented by a talented young female researcher. Fascinating stuff.
NSFW link to Pornhub ^
Worlds biggest gangbang
I think there have been many gangbangs of larger scale throughout history.
Pics or it didn't happen.
How long have pics existed? How long is history? And yet I'm thinking there could still be a pic.
IIRC history started with the invention of written word, somewhere around 6000 years ago
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recorded_history
Cave art existed for at least 40000 years
https://www.thearchaeologist.org/blog/ten-oldest-known-cave-paintings-in-the-world
I would say, that drawings also count as history. They show glimpses how how life has been 10.000 and more years ago.
Of orgys more than 10,000 strong? Pics. Now.
Can I introduce you to the insect world?
You absolutely can, right after we're done talking about human orgys.
You think so? Yeah you're probably right lol, that's insane
I could finally find out how chewing 5 gum supposedly feels

Humans do this the first weekend of summer vacation at the lake/river.
i kinda wanna know what lakes you go to now
Ok so why are you taking photos and not joining in on the fun?
I've been in one of these before it's nice.
Danger noodle ball of Nope

Garter Snakes
Snake orgies AND stinky piss? They sure know how to party
The smell is pretty hard to clean off
I'm going to have nightmares about this.
This isn't where I parked my car.
Admit you want to climb into the snake orgy a bit

Poor snake
I'm my defense, after I stepped on it, I helped it out of my basement. And beyond that, I bought a special snake scooper thingy to help me pick up any snakes in the future. I still have no idea how they get in.
The snake was probably horrified as well. At least it was a garter and not a rattler or mamba.
I didnt know Canada was Australia. I always thought Canada was too cold for this shit.
Garter snakes are harmless, they run from you and don't bite.
Even if they did bite it would still be harmless, tiny teeth, low bite force, no venom, would hardly hurt if it managed to hurt at all.
I’m something of a mating ball, myself.
Humans really do do everything so wrong
Snake Diddy party.
Py Diddy
... and some of them have social anxiety ...
There's a director out there, going: "I need this for real in my next movie."
I wish people were mating like this. Not that I want to, just it would be hilarious
Good thing the dont have feet, can you imagine the time lost while all the Canadian snakes had to appologize to each other?
Did someone tell the snakes Kevin O'Leary was around?
Manitoba remains my least favored province. But the snakes are cool at least.
How do they taste?
Is there no Fucking Interesting community on Lemmy?
