they literally sit on top of the rest of the body, account for 25% of resting body glucose consumption by themselves, and don't actually do anything except order other parts of the body around and infecting themselves with idealist constructs like 'language' and 'consciousness' just so that they can better convince themselves and the rest of the body that they're the most important organs around.

It's pretty fucking wild that some hydrogen cooled down and now we've got to deal with fascism and white supremacy and gender oppression and fucking covid while also trying to keep our incredibly precarious homeostasis by ingesting water and carbohydrates and protein but also we have emotions and empathy so we feel terrible about all the horrible shit we see happening around us, and also our very complex meat sack is slowly succumbing to entropy and falling apart and the process is totally irrevocable and will make your experience of existing worse and more painful every day until you can no longer maintain homeostasis and the other organisms living inside you will multiple out of control and turn you back in to the soup from whence ye came.

And some people think this is all caused by some intelligent magic person, and because they are delusional they think this magic person is "Good".
