[alt text: a 4-panel comic from @deliberatelyburied. The first panel shows a human chef being "piloted" by a rat in a chef's hat, who is hiding inside the human chef's hat and pulling his hair like levers. The second panel reveals that, inside the rat's hat, there is a bug in a chef's hat, who is piloting the rat in the same way. The third panel reveals that, inside the bug's hat, there is a tardigrade in a chef's hat, who is piloting the bug in the same way. The fourth panel reveals that, inside the tardigrade's hat, there is an amoeba in a chef's hat, who is piloting the tardigrade in the same way. The amoeba is saying, "Put some basil in that shit."]
