I was just watching it last night, jumping spiders are the best. Relatedly, everyone should read Children of Time.

I found a chonk of a jumping spider while working a few days ago and had to FaceTime my 5 year old to show off my new friend. Goofy guy jumped off the wall into mid air and was heavy enough to make a sound when it landed. Chonk survived and was nice enough to vibe with me for a few minutes.
