Summary
My little puppy is upstairs demanding all the attention a puppy is contractually entitled to, while my older dachshund is downstairs guarding a treat she absolutely does not want him to steal. She won’t come when I call because she has correctly concluded that I am not acting in her best interests. So I’m letting her win. That also means I’m outsourcing this episode description to a large language model because I’d rather spend my available attention editing the episode than writing about it. It actually gave me a perfectly good first draft, but then it included a single word that appears very early in the song—a word that lands as one of the biggest laughs in the episode precisely because you aren’t expecting it. The model figured that out all by itself, so we both agreed not to spoil it here. Which feels strangely appropriate. This episode wanders through memory, chemistry, blackberries, sharks marinated in lemon juice, the comfort of thinking of yourself as a worker ant, and why it’s probably healthier to sing the thoughts your mind produces than to pretend they never happened. Anyway, one dog is upstairs. One dog is downstairs. Both are probably exactly where they want to be. Now I’m going to go upload the episode.
