#arachnophobia — Public Fediverse posts

Genuine question re: #ContentWarnings

I've seen some discussion that animals that are commonly feared, like #snakes #spiders should be masked w CWs. I have...really mixed feelings on this?

I understand the accessibility angle, but also my lifelong #arachnophobia was hugely helped by posts framing them as adorable and beautiful. And as a #herpetologist a lot of my work involves animals other find scary- including one of my beloved pets.
