I'm a museum educator with an eye for paleontology, science history, animals and the occasional bit of pop culture nonsense. My long-winded blog is here.

This has blown my mind for years. It’s so unreal. It’s almost the same exact reason humans and cats started living together.

Tiny frogs are tarantula housecats. A science fact seldom gets to sound that much like meaningless word salad.

Do you think there’s a Tarantula YouTube with the cute videos of their frog pets? They would certainly give them cutesy names like Hopsy.

That is the best thing I have ever heard
