My shower spider gets a reminder of our deal.

"You know the drill. You stay up there, I stay over here, nobody has to be injured today."

Sometimes the spider decides to come over to my side and gets flushed or squished, but they knew what was expected of them.

I have one of those who knows her place. She’s been there for probably a year now, and I don’t feed her so she must be doing something for me.

She briefly had a friend of the same species set up shop on the other side of the shower. That one didn’t get the memo and decided to wander all over the place while I was showering, breaking the pact. That one went down the drain. The other is still there, months after that event.

Real talk: people that save spiders and make it a moral thing confuse the heck out of me.

Like, if you were the spiders size proportionally to the spider, it would web you up and suck your blood for being in its home...

You're being humane and grounded with a handle like that, are you good? Like can I get you a drink or anything?

My hyperfixation with a rape simulator doesn’t mean I want bad things to happen in the real world.

I even save wasps - I fed a dying one until she was strong enough to escape once.

Yeah, but we have the mental capability of understanding what the spider is, and that it won't eat you, nor do you need to eat it. So why cruelly kill for no reason?

Living a principled life does not rise and fall with what is done to you. That would be transactional.

And yet, I feel guiltless in my murderous choice 🫶🏼
