This will be really embarrassing if they find you and you're actually dead. But I guess it's better than being shaken back to yourself and still being hungry for moths or whatever

Hey, nice. Getting a 1up mushroom tattoo soon, so I am curious if you want to share the background?

If I had to guess, I'd say it's from discworld. I can picture Granny Weatherwax saying this, I just don't remember it specifically.

You are correct. She will sometimes share consciousness with animals, leaving her body idle and outwardly appearing to have passed. To avoid mistakes, she holds a sign adorned with the text shown in the picture.

edit 2: TIL that if you edit a comment twice in rapid succession, at least in Connect, it will post the original comment a second time. Anyway, I meant to say "shown in the picture" rather than "down in."

edit 3: "Rapid succession," not "respond selection." This comment has been a shit show. I should really learn to reread before finalizing a comment, or maybe not to post content on freshly waking up.
