      There’s a joke there about spinsters (women who supported themselves financially by making thread instead of by relying on a husband or their father), but I can’t make it cleanly.

      There’s also this in German, which is a lot easier to make but feels a little cheaper: was weißt du über arachno-Kapitalisten? Die spinnen.
