So, true spiders digest their food externally by injecting the venom. They then slurp it up. So the answer to that is “Yes”. Some true spiders may also eat the more solid bits, but that’s in addition to. but again, many- most- spiders are essentially harmless to humans.
harvestmen (daddy long legs) are not venomous and lack the mouth-parts necessary for injection, but they’re not true spiders.
To add to what nougat said, because that’s very much the appropriate answer…
All spiders are in fact venomous- it’s part of how they feed. Many species, the venom is not harmful to humans, or only very weakly so. (Wolf spiders qualify as “very weakly so”)
That said, you try keeping a reasonable head when you suddenly come eyeball-to-eyeball with a wolf spiders qualify and her kids.

Hmm.
it’s either or a trap, or he is in fact quite bothered. (By the lack of belly rubs.)
I also learned that Freud had an interesting obsession with his mom’s tits.
