Blessed by a cute jumper.
That does cheer me up a bit, too.
Have you seen any like this around before?

Well.damn, he left through a crack in the window screen.
>>1198955I've seen a number around here, 'here' being downtown San Jose California, but I'm not familiar with any species of anything that are native to the area

Jumping spiders are pretty intelligent and very curious.
They're spiders that are pretty visually aware of everything around them and are quite curious.
While it disappeared right now, you may be seeing it return in the coming moments too.
For any arachnophobic, just observing jumping spiders is a good way to overcome your fear.

It is September, so spider season is upon us.
I cauht a ground spider (or maybe a sac spider) while cleaning the house over the weekend. While trapping it to make sure it goes unharmed, it was already building itself a silken retreat when I came to release it.
I might have seen it hunt around later that evening.
And a common cross orb weaver built her web from the first floor awning all the way over to the ground floor. Very big web and I could see her put the spiral down.
>>1198959I know it's probably a joke, but despite how scary spiders can be, it sort of feels redundant to actually go out and kill them.
They're usually not that harmful.

>>1198958Oh I'm not scared of spiders, I just try to avoid any if I don't know if they're are venomous or not. I know jumping spiders are harmless.
I find it fascinating how much
larger the jumping spiders here in California are than the one's I grew up with in Texas.
>>1198960You would love this house I'm living in right now. It's like a 100+ year 3 story house converted into a 6 unit apartment complex long ago and it's
full of spiders! All of which I presume would be native to the San Francisco bay area

>>1198963> I just try to avoid any if I don't know if they're are venomous or not. Well, technically almost all spiders are venomous.
Medically significant? Looks like San Francisco doesn't have brown recluses native.
Be aware of black widows, though (although it hasn't been since the 80s anyone got actually killed by those).
Probably you can have met giant huntsman spiders already.

Saw another giant british house spider the other day. Big, hairy and fast as lightning.
And I'm sorry but there are pretty spiders but these things are ugly and scary and I don't like them

>>1198967House spider are dark spiders that seem scary and "ugly" at first. But if you manage to catch one and look at it, they usually have a nice recognisable pattern on their back. With beige to even yellow/orange spots.
The pattern is also a big clue that you're dealing with Eratigena.
