The many lizard brain moments for Grace in the book make me wonder if Rocky ever had a lizard* brain moments. Like maybe he notices how a little more heat leaves his ball when Grace hugs him and instinctively thinks Grace is freezing

*or whatever Eridians pick as their kinda stupid distant evolutionary relative

When someone in omegaverse says shit like "they called to my inner alpha" or "it pleased my omega instincts," it's just the equivalent of someone saying "activated my lizard brain" or "it's the Capricorn in me."

Like it's not uncommon, but if you ask like 70% of people it's kinda cringy (especially when said seriously and not as a joke)

"Sorry, my omega instincts are not having it" is just two steps from "sorry, my adhd says no, the executives are dysfunctioning."

Or as @the-lunar-system put it:

someone starts talking about their omega nesting instincts and their friends start mercilessly blasting them for acting like a tradwife

It taps into That lizard brain The one that’s excitable and passionate and fearful and quick The one that makes snap judgments on little info The one that misses the signs that are telling you Actually, this isn’t right for you.

Night comes. Real night. Not just the chronological byproduct of Earth pirouetting around the sun, but a blackness that shoves the lizard brain nose first into the dirt and hisses for caution. —Cassandra Khaw/Hammers on Bone

So this is probably gonna be a real country take and idk how many of y'all will get it, but am I the only one who just gets irrationally angry whenever I see a massive Ram or Ford Ute? (Pick-up truck for the Americans)

Idk, like, I get why city people would be frustrated and angered by them, but they aren't even effective off road in the country, they're too heavy and cumbersome. If you really need that much hauling power, you get a Light Rigid truck, a transit vehicle. If the ground is even slightly soft or wet, they just sink. You can get a vehicle with almost the same amount of hauling power with like half the size and a much more efficient fuel economy that actually works off road.

Idk, like whenever I see one of those massive ones, my gut reaction is "pipe bomb, slash tyres, Louisville slugger" etc.
