Today is March the 8th. International Women's Day.
I honour, embrace and applaud every single female member here, and likewise every man who honours, embraces and applauds women, and holds them as equals of significance, who matter.
Of all the millions of people who are shamefully trafficked, globally, over 70% are women and girls.
Remember these millions, today.
Thank you @lobster for the use of your thread.
Hooray! Iz masterplan!

Do spiders think?

What good news (not to be confused with fakir news) can you share?
@lobster I have some experience with spiders. They come to visit me a lot when I sit in chairs. The other day one came down on his little thread. He sort of investigated me and my laptop. He was flying around in front of me, and I wished him the best, but thought he should move over to the corner over there. So I kept on sending my goodwill, and he somehow got the hint and moved over there. Could have just been my breathing that pushed him over, though.
Spiders don't have wings however when travelling long distances they do what's called ballooning ...
If what you saw had wings then you might have seen is a Crane fly (Insect=six legs with wings)
....which often is mistaken for the Daddy Long legs (spiders=eight legs no wings but can use ballooning)

'master'?, tsk, tsk, maybe unskilfull choice of language ...
