A cheerful celebrity dog whose relentless positivity makes him beloved, exhausting, and sometimes emotionally evasive. Mr. Peanutbutter is not stupid so much as defended by motion, enthusiasm, and distraction.
Mr. Peanutbutter's psychology is cheerful avoidance. His optimism is sincere, but it also functions as a refusal to stay with pain long enough to understand it. He fills silence with parties, gestures, catchphrases, and projects because stillness threatens to reveal need.
