What’s happening this November in RuneScape? It’s set to be incredible.

We start with the small matter of a Double XP Weekend, Clan Cup Finals, and the new Well of Goodwill – and it gets better and better.

New Treasure Trails, a new quest, and – as promised – ELF CITY BATCH #2!

It’s going to be a month to remember! Share it with your friends!

Jumping Spider – Tutelina elegans 

True to its scientific name Tutelina elegans (Araneae – Salticidae) is really a stylish and good looking jumping spider with long eyebrows. This is a small, iridescent-green species native to Eastern North America. The female is almost uniform iridescent green that may appear gold or even purple at different angles.

HOW DO PEOPLE FALL ASLEEP SO FAST I DON’T UNDERSTAND I HAVE TO CREATE AND ACT OUT A WHOLE FUCKING MOVIE LENGTH STORY IN MY HEAD AND THEN CONTEMPLATE THE MEANING OF LIFE BEFORE I EVEN FEEL TIRED AND THIS BITCH STARTS SNORING IN TWO MINUTES

I used to have this when I was a kid. It turned out I just really hate nightlights and bed-sharing. Once I started sleeping in my own bed, with only the indirect, faint light of streetlights through Venetian blinds, I was pretty much fine.

I’m not saying that everyone’s insomnia is that easily cured, but it worked for me, and I doubt I’m the only one. There are probably people like ten-year-old me out there right now, taking two hours to fall asleep every night and wrongly thinking that’s just how things are.
