A cat is a small creature in the middle of the food chain that is fully aware that you are a very large thing that could stomp its head in at any moment and yet it chooses to rest its tiny little head on your leg for a nap and spreads out on the floor near you exposing its belly and its most sensitive organs. It brings dead mice and bugs to you to share food.
Don’t you get it? This tiny thing trusts you. It wants to help you too. It licks your leg thinking that it’s helping. It kneads on you to find comfort. It shares its body warmth with you in the cold and gives you your space in the heat. It hisses at other mammals it sees outside including other cats in an effort to protect its family.
Cats love you so so much. But they will keep trying to eat plastic.
I overheard a woman at my job say “Your whole personality revolves around what you hate instead of what you love and thats an awful way to live.” to the resident vocal Maga in the breakroom.
He was stunned into silence for at least 60 seconds so that was nice.
phones love to go “do you want to clear up .3 GB by deleting these cherished pictures that you havent looked at in more than 30 days?” while also installing random apps and AI bullshit you didnt ask for. and you cant even uninstall half the apps
