It has wings and is slow and relaxed. His legs and antennae are a reddish orange color.

It's a wheelbug
They eat pests so don't kill it.

It's a wheelbug, it's a good bug that eats other nasties like stink bugs. (Wheel bugs are one of the only predators of stink bugs) It is a type of assassin bug and has a weird probiscius mouth. Don't mess with them because they can bite and hurt you but they don't unless you provoke them. They are too busy looking for things to assassinate and eat.

The species is generally indifferent concerning the presence and interruption of humans. Although evidence suggests that wheel bugs can seemingly be domesticated in controlled environments, if provoked or mishandled, they may attack in an act of defense. As a cautionary warning, the bite of a wheel bug is generally considered to be of greater severity in terms of the level and duration of pain than the sting of common insects like bees.[5] The resulting wound is documented to be extremely painful, lasting, and lingering, accompanied by an unceasing numbness which can persist for days. These effects can be avoided by handling the docile insect with gloves. The bite is not poisonous and therefore is not serious in the short-term

Just don't get bitten by it. It is worse than anything else I've been bitten by. Close second was a water strider.

How are both of these things simultaneously true?

Bite is venomous but not dangerous is what they meant I guess.

Protein-dissolving digestive enzymes in its saliva. There's no venom.
