    One thing to notice Most animals that are inside your house, are inside your house for a reason. And if you put them outside to “live” they will just die if they cannot return to a suitable environment with a reliable source of food and proper cover from the weather and predators.

    So, sorry for taking away the guilt free feeling of putting an animal outside thinking it will live a long happy life in the wilderness.

      I often think about this too, though a quick search about house spiders did suggest to me they have a decent chance of survival through winter. I don’t think human structures have been around long enough for species to have adapted to be dependent on them.

    I only wish spiders wanted to be hugged and kissed as much I want to hug and kiss them. Actually, this applies to a lot of things.

    To be fair, the spider will likely be responsible for the deaths of many other insects, but honestly, I’m ok with that. They can live in my house rent free if they keep the other bugs from making my home their home… And they don’t crawl on me. That’s just begging to be killed…

    Spiders are bros.

        I’ve been playing a ton lately and hear this LITERALLY ALL THE TIME. That, and something about wanting more violence ;)

          Haha, I played a lot of GW1 and met some of my best irl friend in GW2 in the early days. I basically got the dragon mount and stopped playing shortly after that was released. Sad because I loved, LOVED Cantha in GW1. I should check in again. I have something insane like 4k hours into it. Didn’t feel the need to escape so much after I moved abroad.

            I just tried to respond but it failed I think.

            You really should, the new content is good. Lots of stuff has been refreshed, the story is really starting to both answer questions and ask more. Icebrood saga was awesome and the three (omg you didn’t play eod either omg) new expansions have been great. Anet changed their model so there’s no more separate living world, those in-betweens will be included with the price of the expansions that will now be released more often. Dx11 is now baseline. There’s fishing. And boats. And there are spear builds. And a new trinket slot! And other stuff I don’t want to say! And the dailies system has been replaced and it’s actually good!

            I don’t want to spoil anything, but you really should check in again!

    So far the few I have around here give me a wide berth. Long as that continues we can all coexist

    I agree, but I make exceptions for black widow spiders. I once even found one nesting in my car’s trunk.

    My partner has turned me into a spood fan. I oscillated between being scared of them and liking them in my childhood, but after meeting him, I think of them as weird little guys that hang around the house
