My man, I'm pretty sure that's highly venomous...I'd be careful

You’d be correct. The one in the pic looks like it might a baby bark scorpion.

I got stung by a baby one when I was 4 or 5. About an hour after it stung me, I remember every moment of my vision going extremely blurry and having convulsions from the neurotoxin. Was in the ER overnight. Been terrified of them ever since. Fuck scorpions, OP

Yep. Had convulsions and “roaming eyes”, eyes just spinning in circles for hours after 3 stings to the nipple. I was 30 - these things can fuck you up and they can KILL children. This one looks like a full adult though, they’re tiny

Damn, this reads like a positive review for a scorpion sting kink. I'll try it out.

I’ve also been stung in the nipple, NOT PLEASANT. Little shit crawled into my bra while I was taking a shower and I did not see it. Only had to dash to the ER once from scorpion stings and that was because I disturbed a momma with my bare foot.
