      This is so true! I know a lot of arachnophobes who are fine with them. I think it’s because they don’t move like typical spiders

    Jumping spiders are so cool. You can probably readily find them if you know where to look, and some will jump on your finger if you just stick it out in front of them. They’re super curious and smart, and their vision system is mindblowing (Veritasium video about it, highly recommended!) - and so cute when they swivel around to look at you in the face!
