things i’ve learned from nearly 2 years raising garden snails:
- they have best friends
- they’ll go out of their way to sit on their best friends, kiss their best friends, and share lunch with them
- lettuce is to snails what a favorite ball is to a dog
- if ur tasty they’ll give u gentle scrapes
- they are SOCIAL!!!!!
- they all have very distinct personalities and quirks
- they like comfort, they are affectionate
- u can actually tell when a snail is sleepy because they’ll only stick their stalks halfway out and wiggle them gently
- they’re very curious
- they’re very clean and they love maintaining their shells
- cuttlebone YUMMY, make shell BIG
I just realized the climax of the Lion King is kind of hilarious.
Because it came down to a showdown fight between Scar and Simba. And here’s something great about them: they are the weakest little shits.
Scar was this skinny twig of a lion who probably only got the 11th+ portion of any kill because nobody liked him, and the only way he could one-up anyone was through trickery, and/or by softening them up with a wildebeest herd.
Simba grew up without ever having to chase his prey or work particularly hard because he lived on a diet of insects and nothing else. Nala could kick his ass because she was a goddamn proper hunter.
So the final battle was the equivalent to a pasty-faced metrosexual teen slap-fighting a starving 60-year old
if you call someone to witness and they refused to show up, you are legally entitled to stand outside their house and scream, but only every third day
you can sell your son into slavery once or twice, but after the third time he doesn’t have to put up with that shit anymore
no wailing allowed at funerals
also you can only have ONE funeral per person, don’t get greedy
if your neighbor’s tree has a branch hanging into your yard, you can legally cut down the entire fucking tree
however, if some of your neighbor’s fruit from his dumb tree falls into your yard, he can legally come into your yard to snoop around get it
if you call someone to witness and they’re too sick or old to get to court themselves, you have to provide a cart for them to come in, but it doesn’t have to be, like, a nice cart if you don’t want it to
