    Apparently it’s either a False Wolf Spider or a Southern House Spider, the former often confused with the brown recluse according to the Google image search result and my own personal experience lol.

    Looking at it again it’s probably not nearly as large as my hand, but still quite large of all the spiders I’ve seen myself IRL.

    At one point in my life I was living in a dank California basement room, spending 99% of my time in bed due to a severe mental health crisis, 2 years straight.

    One night I saw a spider chilling at the bottom of one of my bedposts. I took a picture of it and went back to bed.

    8 years later I used image search to identify what kind of spider it was.

    It was a brown recluse the size of my hand.
