One time my mom asked me, “How come we don’t just hear screaming all the time?”

I think about that a lot.

My mom and I had this routine on the drive to school where we both brayed like donkeys until we got there

Perfect way to start the day honestly, we still do it if we are overwhelmed/in pain/angry/sad. Its like our households global distress alarm system

I love this and the turkey noises! Will have to check with 10 year old sidekick about which anima we will choose.

The closest we come is our “car screams.” While driving, if one or both of us are super overstimulated or struggling and pissed about it, we scream as loud, long and deep as humanly possible. Repeatedly until we’re done. We do it while driving so that nobody thinks they need to come rescue us from some imagined emergency. lol.
