Hasn't human culture across history been sexualizing spiders in a similar way we also sexualize snakes?

Are we talking rum ham!?
trump giving bubba the ole gluck gluck 3000 is going to make the holidays either completely bearable, or jerry springer material. No in-between. First mention of him should always be met with "isn't that the guy who blew bill clinton?"
No matter how your drunk uncle replies, you can then follow that up with "I'm happy to see you be so supportive of alternative lifestyles"
Be prepared to throw hands as uncy kyle wrestles with his most repressed memories from boy scout camp though.
I'm not against sexier spiders, but I'm a leftist and not a liberal
The fox news types conflate those because they use it to mean social liberalism, not economic liberalism. Which is funny because the republican party is economic liberals too lol. Just like the "communist" democratic party which of course is neoliberal not communist.
So you're a leftist who opposes human rights?
Wut? I thought we were talking about sexy spiders
You said you're not a liberal, so you don't support human rights.
That's news to me
Yeah, it's the definition of the word. Can be really confusing if you live in a country that has a Liberal Party which are usually about as Liberal as the DPRK is Democratic, a People's Republic, or Korea.
He's not wrong, I've seen the spider girls communities.
I am now a liberal.
"Why are the spiders under my skin all uggos?!" - Sean Hannity
Excuse me, I resent that accusation. How dare you call me a liberal.
Stupid sexy spiders.
So funny people on the right are being told by the right what the left wants, instead of actually listening to any actual leftist. It's like listening to your divorced dad talk shit about your mom but believing everything he says.
speak for yourself! i, for one, welcome our sexy spider overlords
they are so indoctrinated that believe that if any leftists (or hated minority) talks to them, they are lies to trick them in order to destroy whatever privileges they have.
they are in a serious cult
I am not against it.
Someone didn't watch James and the Giant Peach in their formative years and develop confusing feelings about Miss Spider.
Yes. I fail to see the downside.
If drow lady evil, why so hot?
Ppl into legs rejoice.
now I'm generally a centrist but tell me more
The quality of US media is so utterly cooked, I don't even know if this is a real or faked subtitle now
don't tell the moths...
I did a job for an older boomer last week. Fox News was on 24/7. He just sits in this one room chain smokes and watches fox news on repeat. While simultaneously watching old westerns on a tablet. Anyways.
I forgot how absolutely fox news was. The speak about us on the as if we vermon that need to be exterminated. It's so sad to see the divide trump has caused. A good president would try to unite. I just don't know where we go from here. The right has absolutely lost their minds, they want blood and I fear thats where we're headed. Truly terrifying and sad time to be a us citizen
Consuming content nonstop.
Do.. do old boomers also have brainrot now?
I see you've met my FIL. We don't talk much anymore.
Actually at all since election day... He would rather own the libs than see his grand daughters.
Quelaag got me actin unwise
Miyazaki's foot fetish couldn't be contained. He needed a sexy lady with eight legs to satisfy him.
Hmmm, only one photo of sexy spider in the comments, is lemmy losing its edge?
Not a bad policy
Has Hannity been watching Hazbin Hotel and getting weird feelings in his tightie whities?
If it makes them less scary then I'm all for it
but they already aren't scary. it's humans who need to stop being scared of everything
Lib turned Shelob sexy confirmed?
One of the shadow of Mordor games made sexy shelob and it was bad.
Isn't Shelob a spawn of Ungoliant, the closest thing Tolkein's legendarium had to a Lovecraftian Elder God?
Yeah, but I guess megacorps like Warner Brothers are even more obscene than elder gods.
Says you.
Hell yeah, give me some sexy spiders
...Alcoholism + Fox News is a terrible combo :(
I do.
(IDK about the "liberal" part though)
Leftists, liberals, progressives... It's all same to right wingers.
Exactly, which is why I tell people not to bother with labels.
Don't argue the difference between a Socialist and a Social Democrat, talk about why your candidate is better, and can do more for the voters.
