Learning to Love Spiders
The world needs radical empathy.
It is not enough to see ourselves in other people, we must recognize the birds, the trees, and even the hills and rivers. We must see their suffering and their triumphs as our own.
We must do this because it is right, but also for our own sakes.
Contrary to what our sociopathic overlords tell us, we do not survive alone. We survive as a community, as a species, as an ecosystem, and as a biosphere.
So here is some praise for spiders.
Yes, they look scary and some can be dangerous, but we figured out how to love cats.
They’ve been around for almost 400 million years and might be able to teach us a lesson or two about surviving mass extinctions.
Join our arachnid celebration with a charming new deck, an insightful new book, and a supply of cuddly plush arachnids almost as numerous as the real thing.
