spiders don't even have endoskeletons

But they do. They have a series of collagen based plates which form a sternum-like structure that serves as an anchor and attachment point for a variety of muscles.

Matty posted:

Here's where I'm a little confused; based on your size reference picture with the jug, reginald is either a male (spiders are highly sexually dimorphic) or a female from linyphiidae.


vaguely posted:

from the size of the abdomen I would guess at mature female though, if a spider is that much of a fatty it usually is a lady type
there are many types of spider that are as small as our friend here, doesn't necessarily have to be Linyphiidae; based on the web and general body shape I would say it's either that or Theridiidae and some of those species can be quite little as well!

In earlier pictures I was sure Reggie's third pair of legs was significantly shorter than the rest, which to my understanding was a Theridiidae hallmark, but checking some of the newer pictures now I'm not sure. Same with the pedipalps, sometimes they look straight and narrow sometimes they look like they have dark bulbs. Are we sure Reggie isn't multiple spiders?

It seems unlikely to me, but I don't know anything about spiders. I can say that I look over every time I'm in the kitchen and I have never seen Reginald not in his web nor have I ever seen a similar species spider anywhere near there. Unless there is some kind of elaborate prank that Reginald is playing on me... He's kind of cheeky I think, so I don't necessarily put it past him.

edit: also sometimes Reginald's legs look a lot different in the picture then they do in real life 3D, he splays them about in strange ways sometimes.

Anyway, here's Reginald! He looks like he's patting his belly after eating a delicious meal. :3:

the movie actually gives a really good reason for Reginald to be destroying that city! You should watch it to see why he is. :)

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

it is a centipede city

given that reginald is only a very small genderqueer spider, s/he must have a really goddamn good plan to destroy that city, and for that reason alone i'd watch the film

Check it out! It's Reginald! Likely considering his future plans to take over the world.

Bedbug would be pretty popular goons can relate to living in squalor.

Bedbugs dont give a gently caress how clean your place is. They only care how much blood is in it.

Make that spider a tiny Christmas hat and put it on him. If you have big fat Western hands, ask an Asian to help. I used to do this in electronics class.
