What spider is this
Is it safe to keep? It's super tiny. I live in phoenix arizona. I can't find any pictures online of spiders with the same size and markings but I also don't know how to look.

EARWIGS!
Very sudden infestation of Earwigs in my home! Wtf is going on?!?!? I’m freaking out it’s like they just spawned out of nowhere within 48 hours. I’m killing 1-2 making a bathroom trip and 4-6 making a quick stroll to the kitchen. Does anybody know what could’ve caused this??

found this in my room (IL)
kind of freaking out. so my room is … a disaster. its my depression room and i am very ashamed of it. there is trash everywhere old boxes of food (empty), hair, dust, basic trash.
seeing these bugs (only found two so far) is giving me the motivation to finally clean my room because i hate bugs. i just want to know what this is so i can tackle it if i need to.
please do not comment on the state of my room. i just need to know what this bug is thank you.

7yo is dying to know what this is
It’s in an unlabeled display in his classroom. Things it’s an Asian Giant Hornet but wasn’t sure with the thorax pattern.
Display is in Washington state but I suppose its contents could be from anywhere.
