If Ratatouille mechanics were real, there would be a whole market of businesses offering the services of operating rats to people who want them, and it'd be like how bees produce honey. People in the rat business would be so exhausted of having to explain over and over again that no, the rats aren't being exploited. If the rats didn't like how they're being treated, they would simply not return. There's no goddamn way to force a rat to be so passionate about playing the saxophone that they'll figure out how to puppeteer a human to do it for them. All that the business does is finding a way to put that specific rat in the hair of someone who's about to go on stage.

The rats 100% think the businesses are being run for their benefit and worry about the humans being exploited.

[homunculus-argument]

A rat manager who is a rat and deals on their end of the deal is exhausted of having to explain over and over again that look, an average fully grown adult human being is like 200 times your weight, their hands are very fast and they can throw things better than you want to imagine. If one of them things didn't want you in their hair, you're not going to stay there for long. You'd be yote out the window in two seconds flat.

what would the discourse around bald people look like

[fairycosmos]

subject shows painful degree of self awareness paired with a complete inability to act on it

[hentairobot]

im sick of summer. who the fuck likes summer. who the fuck likes being butt ass naked in bed no cover and still sweating your tits off except the air is soup so your sweat goes nowhere but soaking into your fucking sheets and god forbid if you open your fucking window for 30 seconds to even begin to rectify it (which doesnt work because its still fucking hot at night) unlimited fucking flies and ants and stupid fucking bugs harass you forever

WHO FUCKING LIKES THIS???

[hentairobot]

plunge this planet into an eternal ice age for the love of fucking god i never want to see the sun again in my entire life

parents will be like "We're good parents! We did our best!" while their child is alone in their room, terrified of footsteps, unable to conceptualize being loved by anyone.

[octal-alchemist]

really feels like i don't dare to have a romantic relationship until i know where i want to call home

[where-was-there-was]

probs not much help coming from an aromantic but... that feels like it makes perfect sense and is super reasonable?

[shittysawtraps]

what if we all saw trapped everyone forever

[where-was-there-was]

I don't think I've heard of that one before, is it a movie? do you remember where you saw it, I kinda wanna try... tho I don't think I'll be able to watch it forever and ever, have to take breaks and all that y'know

[lifeafterpsychiatry]

The thing all these lists of "reasons to stay" going around social media misses is that most of these reasons won't matter much if your basic needs consistently aren't being met. Like thinking of "puppies and sunshine and pretty flowers and your favorite TV show" probably won't make a material difference if you don't have stable housing and can't buy enough food to stay full or if you're stuck in a horrifically abusive situation with no way out. Like it's great if those things can keep you going, but let's not shame people for not being fulfilled by such things when their material situation fundamentally sucks in ways the "little joys of life" won't realistically make a dent in

[creepish]

they should invent going outside without people looking at you

[what-even-is-thiss]

I really don’t like when a book advertises itself as fantasy or scifi with maybe some romance on the side and then it turns out to just be a romance with some fantasy or scifi wallpaper. Fine if you wanna read that but I don’t. Stop having sex and kill the dragon already. This is false advertising.

deserved

[aethercurrent]

underrated aspect of being bilingual: going on an absolutely wild goose chase to find a perfect translation for a sentence that formed in your head in one language while you're writing in the other, only to come out of places you would not dare tread otherwise with a scowl on your face and going "yeah sure i guess 'distort' is about as close as i'll get to this, i hate it here (in the english language)"

[softandwigglybones]

goddamn I think so much about paragraph breaks. I get annoyed when I like everything about what I'm writing except for the physical way I divide those words into sections.

[andhumanslovedstories]

Sometimes the only difference between a sentence being just a sentence versus being a punchline or a gut punch in how you group it with other sentences. Which is cool. However. Also deeply stressful. Like much of writing.
