"Surely things can't get worse," I thought, resolving to stay safely indoors until September. Silly, silly me. New photos of another eight-legged creature doing something terrifying just appeared on the internet and I think it's officially time to leave the planet.

(Side note: This group has more 6,000 members and that feels kind of shocking?) Anyway, I haven't slept since seeing them. (Warning: If you ever want to sleep again, do not scroll any further.)
