That spider reminds me of the Peppa Pig episode that was banned in Australia because it says that spiders aren't dangerous,but in Australia they are.

Gonna check up here, what Brazil lacks in quantity is made up in quality – AFAIK brown recluse venom is worse than what australian spiders have to offer, the damn critter is actively hostile and will charge if provoked, and isn't a big fan of "don't disturb it and it'll leave you undisturbed" tactics either. Many of our spiders are just big, hairy but mostly harmless, and even most of the venomous ones can be swiftly and/or peacefully dealt with. Any encounter with a brown recluse is a fucking boss fight.

I remember discussing on how cartoons today don't have the harmful life lessons the old ones had: Don't put metal (especially tinfoil) in a microwave, Uncle Fester and Doc Brown would show you why. Today people old enough to get a job to buy their own phones will fall for "enabling quickcharge by microwaving it", or asking why their cereal bowl is sparking. In fact as I tried searching for this I see it's a very common "lifehack" to microwave your metallic spoon/scoop to get through hard ice cream.
