puberty is sorta like this but idk, it doesn’t feel as dramatic
I really wonder what happened in your puberty to be “sorta like this”
First, the caterpillar digests itself, releasing enzymes to dissolve all of its tissues. If you were to cut open a cocoon or chrysalis at just the right time, caterpillar soup would ooze out.
What’s really screwy is memories survive that process. You can do Pavlov’s dog type training on a caterpillar. The resultant butterfly will still react to the trigger.
The brain goes through a liquid phase, but still manages to maintain its wiring!
‘Sorta like this’ meaning: we undergo some physical changes (height, body hair, hormones, etc) but nowhere near as dramatic as eating yourself and reassembling

The chrysalis process is amazing.
What, you didn’t crawl into your puberty sac and grow your sex organs?
That sounds like middle school
Yeah. Puberty. What was yours like?

Nature/chem/physics is fuckin’ cool
How much caterpillar soup is needed to be lost to kill it
oh hello there Dr. Mengele
