people who are afraid of snakes are fuckin’ WILD, like dude, just carefully step over these fat babies’ sausage bodies and gently move the burmese python chillin’ against the door, then you become unfathomably rich. i would do this for $10. i would do this for FREE.Â
Snakes that large are actually incredibly lethargic most of the time.  Even if they haven’t eaten, they know they can’t eat you, just don’t hurt them and they pretty much don’t give a damn.
Like seriously constrictors are the best beans in the world. The worst thing I’ve ever seen a constrictor do is try to get under people’s clothes because it’s extra warm there. Pick them up and wear them like jewelry if you want, they don’t give a fuck. They just want your sweet, sweet body heat.
Ok I saw a rb of this with some context and I only remember like half of it so I’m also using Google I may get some of this wrong
But apparently the “first errand” thing isn’t just a cute little fact about the little kid, it’s a totally real thing done in Japan to teach kids that they can like rely on the community to offer assistance if they need it. They send their kids (like 2-3 years old) out alone to perform a relatively simple errand like going to a convenience store and buying a carton of milk. (There’s even a tv show where a camera crew follows children as they accomplish this first errand.) It’s not uncommon to see kids as young as 6-7 riding the subway alone because they’ve gained this sense of independence that comes from knowing that there will be people to help out if they need it.
Oh my god that’s even better
As someone who grew up with a paranoid and over-protective mother, this both warms my heart and terrifies me.
