      @•PikoraGhoul • Crazy stuff happen all the time, and a life size amoeba painting the mona lisa would not surpirse me. Just kidding it would. Our boy *the* was probably reading the painting part as a metaphor for something else (like decorated shit or something). Maybe it is like the music some spiders make to attract mates. It is not stuff we would call music, but what is and what isn't music isn't always clear. Some may consider the tapping of a keyboard an instrument, and the typing of words by slamming keys the rhythm.

    This was a great way to tell the journey of an artist when starting out in uni (or on their self learning art path). That last bit was very much like the moment where you fuss and over render paintings, and your art sense has given way to overthinking. I'll never forget the important things of being an artist; swimming, eating and pooping.

While the condition caused by inhaling the amoeba is extremely rare (the U.S. states that had the highest rates of such a condition had like 1-3 people being diagnosed with it per year), it was extremely deadly, with those having said condition having a 98% chance of dying from it.
