So it just struck me while looking at the sardine bed. Because of the difference in size, as square cubed law is a thing, would most surfaces feel softer or harder for a mouse? My pillow feels soft to me, but would be taut for a creature incapable of breaking past the tension. I'm guessing harder, but would that be universal? Am I missing something?

That explains why big animals like elephants are bald, while small animals like mice are furry

Kinda? Large animals are gigantothermic, which alleviates much of the need for hair

Then explain why your mom is still so hairy, despite her size?

I don't know what to tell you, buddy. She was born before shaving pubic hair was common so you'll just have to eat through her pale crotch afro.

Their weight is so much less that anything without sharp edges would feel comfortable to lie on. We like soft things because they eliminate pressure points, but when the pressure is so much less, everything is as comfortable as a bed.

See, that was my first thought. I ended up confusing myself with the realization about pillows

I assume a limit to nerve ending concentration so it's possible the fibers of cotton feel similar. Also since mass is lower the point-pressure should be lower meaning sharp objects aren't as dangerous to traverse.

And sponsored by a cheese company. Frankly, nothing to complain about, really.

hell yeah. i'm sponsored by a hardware store (i'm friends with the owner and they gave me a small discount on parts for a prototype i'm building if they could slap their logo on it) and i want to hang out with or on four cheese wheels.

Did time cause I copped some feta
Not good enough to sub for cheddar
I want cheese, I'm a deep scent fella
In the sewer, don't worry bout weather

Cookin like Remy in Ratatouille
Float like a butterfly, sting like brie
Trapped in a rat race, tryna be free
Parmesan, cheddar jack, evеn colby
Is the only kind of currency that works for me
