Can you imagine a hug from Superman?

He can snap you in half with his thumb and forefinger. The amount of effort and thought that he puts into making sure he only applies just enough pressure to squeeze you firmly is more love than most people get.

    He was raised by fragile elderly nice as can be farmers. He knows how to hug safely.

    "That man won't quit as long as he can still draw a breath—none of my teammates will. Me, I've got a different problem. I feel like I live in a world made of cardboard, always taking constant care not to break something, to break someone; never allowing myself to lose control, even for a moment, or someone could die. But you can take it, can't you, big man? What we have here is a rare opportunity for me to cut loose and show you just how powerful I really am."

    I can also just crush a can of soda I am drinking but I have fine motor control that allows me to simply hold it without crushing it without thinking too hard about it. 🤷‍♂️
