WHAT A SPIDER!!! ๐คฏ๐คฏ
BEHOLD, one of the coolest arachnids in the world, the Long-horned Spiny Orb Spider (Macracantha arcuata)! ๐ท๐
Found in the rainforests of SE Asia, these magnificent beasts are found usually at head-height in a web theyโve made to catch flying prey!๐๐ธ๏ธ
A fake spider in a web, with text: Thatโs no spider! Itโs a decoy
For the first time, scientists have documented an unusual defense: Some species of arachnids build giant doppelgรคngers on their webs, creating a frightening deception that scares off would-be killers. https://scim.ag/487Myn0

Arachnid Megacity

โGenerations of isolation have reshaped both their genes and gut microbes. The colony appears to be completely cut off from the surface world.โ
Sounds like given enough time theyโll start to adapt and evolve separately from the rest of their species. Curious how co-dependent theyโll eventually be
Digitally drawn image of an amblypygi, an arachnid sorta halfway between a spider and a scorpion. It has six distinct legs, with its frontmost two legs having adapted into long slender โwhipsโ, sensory limbs that give the bugfriend its name. Its pedipalps, grippy โarmsโ beside its mouth, are spiky and scary but harmless unless youโre a cricket or something. Its carapace is drawn purple and pink with a seafoam outline, against a pale yellow background. Colours are not true to life but stylistically chosen.
Drew an amblypygi, or tailless whip scorpion. Theyโre sweethearts! Fully harmless to humans, and among the only arachnids to exhibit social bonds - mother/child, and even siblings, grooming each other.
Taking lil art breaks in between other projects is nice~

Important to note all the competitive ai features are locked behind a monthly subscription, so I wouldnโt exactly say this is โcompletely freeโ
I would have liked the option to pay one time and keep the software forever, running ai features locally. Or pay subscription if my computer was incapable.
Does this game actually run well on the steam deck though?
I remember trying to play it on my desktop when it came out and performance was, well it wasnโt great

Looks like the Affinity suite is currently free for iPad. These are great programs and this may be the last best chance to get them in a form that isn't trash (before Canva's ominous announcement on Oct 30th). If you're interested I'd jump on this quick.
We are currently living through one of the greatest time periods for horror movies in the history of film and it feels like nobody acknowledges it enough.
These are all just from 2025
