    That’s why I mixed the metaphors kinda awkwardly… We’re not a pet, we’re a plant, but generally humans don’t see any amusement in watching a plant do something potentially stupid and unnecessary

    What you do when your plant is dying for basically no reason? Maybe you prune it, maybe you change your caretaking, maybe you just leave it to see if it can pull through before you turn it into fertilizer for the next plant

    We love the plant, but we also want it to bear fruit. We’re all just one plant in the garden, maybe we get pruned and watered, but the love is really for the garden, not exactly any given plant

    We act like humanity is the only plant, but that’s insane. A creator creates. A gardener gardens. A farmer farms. They want us to succeed, but it’s crazy to think we would be an only child
