Another weird thing to come out of reading this book of humorous essays - there’s a story- is wanting to hang out with actual wolves at some point. Since I really like cats, and cats are essentially adults rather than permanent wolf cubs like dogs, I wonder if I’d like whatever “dog but an adult” is.
dogs and systemic abuse and parallels to our own abuse
@Leucrotta ...also sheesh. Our parents were really keeping us as that sort of Permanent Kids too (while expecting us to grow up), huh.
Like, I'm pretty sure that's why dogs are like that – humans expect them to Obey and they toss out anyone who's not fawn-response. Just like we're fawn-response.
Dogs are like us, except they never have a chance to get out.
@Leucrotta yeah!! Yeah!!!
