I told you, we're an arachno-cyndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive spider for the week.

Be thankful they chose Aranae instead of other arachnid orders. ::: spoiler don't open; whip-spider inside :::

How about pseudoscorpions? One landed on my arm a few weeks ago (probably fell out of the AC ducts) and it was charmingly silly proportioned for a tiny little thing waving pincers.

Pseudoscorpions are absolute little goofs, I agree. I'm not sure if that offsets how weird and creepy they are. It's like I'm giggling and profoundly worried I'm seeing an alien at the same time.

And this is how today i learned that horses are phoretic hosts for humans.

I just wanted to say thank you for the spoiler. I have arachnophobia though regular spiders only kind of weird me out unless they are like coming at me. But anything even remotely more than that and I wouldn't be able to handle it. I choose to live my life believing scorpions are fake for example. Anyways, thanks for hiding the scary picture on the internet when you didn't have to.

I do have to. Doing otherwise robs you of a chance to someday gradually expose yourself to and appreciate these creatures. Or it at least needlessly ruins someone's mood.

This is as far from cute as things can get before turning into outright cosmic horror

I'm a pseudo communist, which you can get at the pharmacy, but you need a driver's licence and a good story.

Lol. No. Cats want to be emperor and kings, they don't give a shit about anyone else.

Stirner is a memetic hazard but not in a cool SCP sorta way but in a "thank fuck Marx got big" sorta way. Imagine how annoying a Stirner version of a tankie would be.

I dont have any evidence, but I 100% believe Engels invented Stirner for Marx to get mad about. Everything we know about the guy reads like 1800s satire, and it reads like Engels sense of humor.

Since cats are autistic, the closest you can get is anarcho-autism.

especially the tricky metaphors like "dude you have food in the bowl, what the fuck do you want me to do?"

Well yeah, if you don't want a boot in your neck, or to be the supreme leader ahose boot is on every neck, you must be a child.

And if you think labor shouldn't be exploited, you can't be over 30.

Boot licker.
