Imagine if getting core mental trauma was somehow audible or visible. Like you're already having a bad day and you're trying to wrangle two toddlers and a bag of groceries and work was ass and then you hear the sound of something shattering and you just know that one of your kids' emotional core and sense of basic safety just fucking broke and you can't even tell which one it was.

I thought you liked catholics?

That’s a fetish. Good for roleplay but not earnestly irl. I like their horny art. But ultimately the Catholic Church is an enemy of humanity.

We're sorry for getting bored and taking the term "food court" too seriously and staging mock trials during work hours, boss. In our defence, the customers seemed to love it.
