I'm from Australia.

Some spiders are absolutely bros.

Others seem to exist only to fuck you up.

Once you know the difference you're fine, but I don't blanket assume that every spider I find is a friend.

Your continent is the perpetual exception to the rule. Least in north America there aren’t a ton of spiders that pose a huge threat past this 8 legged trauma people have. Most of our spiders are lil jumpy boys. And web ones but they are pretty obvious. The ones I’m not overly keen on are the daddy long legs. Legs for days but they just seem like sea spiders on land.
