i think it's instinctive to go "OH FUCK" when something of sufficient size skitters about, but not instinctive to specifically hate spiders

and it doesn't matter what the skittery thing is, if a mouse scurries across my floor i'm gonna get spooked too, and i think mice are cute!

I see mice outside and I’m like “awwwwwwwww”.

I hear about people seeing spiders inside and my pulse rate rises.
