It Occurs To Me That As Much As “humans Are The Scary Ones” Fits Sometimes, If You Look At It Another

It occurs to me that as much as “humans are the scary ones” fits sometimes, if you look at it another way, humans might seem like the absurdly friendly or curious ones.

I mean, who looked at an elephant, gigantic creature thoroughly capable of killing someone if it has to, and thought “I’m gonna ride on that thing!”?

And put a human near any canine predator and there’s a strong chance of said human yelling “PUPPY!” and initiating playful interaction with it.

And what about the people who look at whales, bigger than basically everything else, and decide “I’m gonna swim with our splashy danger friends!”

Heck, for all we know, humans might run into the scariest, toughest aliens out there and say “Heck with it. I’m gonna hug ‘em.”

“Why?!”

“I dunno. I gotta hug ‘em.”

And it’s like the first friendly interaction the species has had in forever so suddenly humanity has a bunch of big scary friends.

eggs are most delicious when least touched by fire (so poached, sunny side up, etc declining in quality to over easy, hard boiled). this is because fire cleanses the egg of sin (primary source of flavor). this is also why the objectively most delicious egg is soft boiled (hardened purified exterior traps the delicious sin inside the soft gooey interior), and why scrambled eggs are morally ambiguous

Had a dream that I made a really generic “Fuck Jeff Bezos” post, and for some reason it got huge. I don’t know what dream logic made me think that would happen, but I remember people asked me to elaborate and I got to lay out my plans for a duel to the death and what recipes exactly we should use to cook and eat him. It was nice.

he would not say that, podcast edition:

A poorly cropped and edited screenshot of a comment, which used to read "he wouldn't fucking say that," now reading "he wouldn't fucking look like that".

I demand that tumblr bring the crabs back. Tumblr should be the one and only social media with crabs that you can summon at the click of a button 24/7, 365 days a year. I think this would save this website.
