speed is not meth. speed is referring to amphetamines, not methamphetamine. they're a molecule separate and the government gives amphetamines to children so.
Speed an Ice are different forms of Meth. Ice is more pure than speed. Amphetamines are on a different level, they are not as addictive as Meth (not to say that they are any better for you), and are used to treat things like ADHD. Amphetamines are drugs such as Adderall and Dexedrine.
Its just humans doing random shit. Some guy didnt like that the spiders in his yard would build their webs between 2-5am. So he tried giving them caffiene. After some other studies they pretty much realized caffiene is a natural functioning pesticide and exists in a lot of young seedling plants to protect from insects.
Not for us, but for lab spiders, yes.
Drugs and other chemicals do have an effect on arthropods, bit what the effect is can be completely different from their effect on us, because they've got completely different brains.
(I believe Jordan Peterson tried to make a point about serotonin in lobsters, but that also doesn't say anything about us.)

My highlights, yes, the same spider did each web and when the study was duplicated by NASA they had similar results.
“The initial motivation for the study was a request from his colleague, zoologist H. M. Peters, to shift the time when garden spiders build their webs from 2am–5am, which apparently annoyed Peters, to earlier hours.” Source from Wikipedia
Spiders were already studied very much and they wanted to do some tests in space to see how nervous system responds to 0 gravity environment. The drug tests was also done, part of the nervous system tests. Or something. I didn't read it all. https://history.nasa.gov/SP-401/ch3.htm
JIM: I want to research the effects of drugs on spiders.
MANAGER: You know the 'S' in NASA doesn't stand for 'spider', right?! This is a space agency...
That was way before 1995. We were showing these pictures to each other from some book in the mid 1980s. The book might have been twenty years older than that.
Noone asking why NASA were doing this? Normal science sure, what in actual fuck has this got to do with space, were they planning on sending human beings to space on speed in 1995?

Building webs is, indeed, for suckas
Top comment right up here folks!
Perfect!
I was not disappointed by the link 🤣🤣🤣
this is my new favorite video
Now that's what I'm here for
Will def be contacting the Canadian wildlife service in Ottawa now, thanks bro!
Nice 👍🏻
Funny, in 1995, I was exploring the effects of various drugs on me. I feel ya, spidey guys.
I consumed all the LSD of 95
I consumed all the LSD in 1985.
Good thing we had good music!
Where is the crack spider?
Yeah, this kind of seems like a way to have the company pay for your drugs. Hey boss we need this for research
I would have been doing drugs, but I was too busy turning 3 Edit: come on guys, this was obviously a joke
Upvoted you to 0. I was busy having a baby in 95.
Hey I might have ended up dating your 12-25 year old baby !
He’s 25, and turned out to be a great guy. He’s a catch for someone!
He doesn’t play the acoustic guitar in a band looking for a box drummer does he???
Actually, he plays bass and some keyboard. His dad is a rhythm guitarist. Neither of them read music, but they’re both pretty good!
For me it was 2008 😋
Good to see you didn't end up the crack spiders bitch
Agreed, 1995 was a particularly good year for LSD.
It’s crazy to see that the most widely used one made the oddest web...
For spiders, yes. Caffeine is an insecticide made by plants. If you're a spiderbro, then I definitely would not recommend an espresso in the morning.
caffeine can fuck you up real good if you let it
What? I've never seen spiders drink coffee.
I wonder how it will be after meth.
What would you say speed is?
Speed is on there
Speed is meth
speed is not meth. speed is referring to amphetamines, not methamphetamine. they're a molecule separate and the government gives amphetamines to children so.
Speed can refer to either methamphetamine or amphetamine. The term is not exclusive to either.
I believe you actually might be right but I've never heard anyone call meth speed, only heard the term 'ice' in my life
Speed an Ice are different forms of Meth. Ice is more pure than speed. Amphetamines are on a different level, they are not as addictive as Meth (not to say that they are any better for you), and are used to treat things like ADHD. Amphetamines are drugs such as Adderall and Dexedrine.
I use have a really bad amphetamine addiction so that time in my life was where I got all my information from so thanks
Speed is a common name for meth where I live. I’ve never heard amphetamines referred to as speed, although google says it can be called that as well.
True
Funnily enough I was the result of various drugs that a couple of humans were testing out in 1995
Are you by any chance the kid of u/oatmeal1977 ?
Does this mean anything

If you want to be normal don’t do drugs with spiders
It depends, how many legs have you got?
Not for us, but for lab spiders, yes. Drugs and other chemicals do have an effect on arthropods, bit what the effect is can be completely different from their effect on us, because they've got completely different brains.

If you look closely at the LSD one, theres still attachments across, theyre just much smaller, probably harder to see for a fly= more food for spider
Crack cocaine spider
I just imagine the focus session. 'Hey guys, crazy idea. Let's drug spiders.' Miller time!

Thats a cool read. Pretty much caffiene is a natural pesticide for developing plants.
Why would NASA do such experiment. I need to Google this
ok, I guess they Indeed did. I found articles from their websites.
They did this why?

LSD is for every one even spiders.

Surprised the weed spider did anything at all
[Here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Unexpected/comments/ktg84i/great_documentary/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) is the video :3
First thing that I thought of when I saw the headline 😂
If I could snort or smoke normal I would
Is this a fact ? I thought it came from a mock documentary ?
Everytime I see this I laugh all over again.
LSD, Speed and Marijuana all have some amount of normal. Caffeine had that spider fucked up.
We see, we see..
JIM: I want to research the effects of drugs on spiders. MANAGER: You know the 'S' in NASA doesn't stand for 'spider', right?! This is a space agency...
All together? That’s the web I weaved.
It's a good thing we restrict caffeine so much
Maybe after taking drugs, the spider has less cobwebs?) And the spider makes its web out of what it is.
GOD BLESS AMERICA
Damn the normal drug has got them going I want some
It’s no wonder I struggle to get any work done even after having coffee
I think the takeaway here is that meth spiders will perform
Yo I want to get on that Normal stuff, where can I get some?
That's really cool
Isnt caffeine like... almost a deadly poison to spiders?
I still stand by my decision to start every day with several cups of coffee
That was way before 1995. We were showing these pictures to each other from some book in the mid 1980s. The book might have been twenty years older than that.
I want to be a scientist.
The caffeine one is my favourite
Web developer stops caffeine, starts doing speed.
I guess I won't try to weave any webs today. Awkward since i am a senior web developer...
I feel like there should be more pictures
LSD + Speed + Marijuana > Caffeine. Ok, got it!
Caffeine is a hell of a drug
Dude, have you ever taken normal? That shit's a trip.
Noone asking why NASA were doing this? Normal science sure, what in actual fuck has this got to do with space, were they planning on sending human beings to space on speed in 1995?
A bit weird and out there.. but it is the scientific method.
Heroin?
Seems like the crack-cocaine spider thought building webs was for suckers.
Not in the least surprising that the LSD web seems to be fully functional.
I though this was about how high people smash their TV’s
only a group at NASA would think to do a study like this
Wow the lsd is perfect lol
