Transitional Spiders
A few spiders have recently been described that lack certain features of modern spiders. They have only partial tagmosis, which just gives me a joygasm; they seem to lack venom, though they do have fangs; they have spigots for producing silk, but lack spinnerets; and one even still has a primitive “tail”!

They are like the retarded cousins of scorpions. The kind you keep in the bedroom when you have guests over.
