They need freedom to just be fluffy mashed potatoes and feel their fluffy feelings.

Default I'm feeling particularly ruthless today

I just threw away a pan with milk scorched to the bottom, a broken cabinet knob, a broken wheel off the dishwasher rack, like five broken toys, a tool turnabout that's been empty for months, two canisters that have sat empty for months, a piece of wire, and 11 cents that were in a puddle of soap from a bottle that fell over.

That felt good

Then I used the puddle of soap and a wet towel to scrub a forsaken little section of countertop that we usually set trash on. Then I used the wet soapy towel to clean the sink and the window sill.
