I've never understood this either. If someone is holding things in their arms it's helpful, but if they have a cart then nothing is really gained. I can easily fill the conveyor belt by the time the person in front of me finishes paying. So getting started early feels like I am crowding them for no reason. Like flooring it between red lights; you're just wasting energy to wait anyway.
Is it bad that I would legitimately laugh out loud if that did happen? Partly to avoid crying, but still.
White Lotus. The opening themes are all incredible, but all the background music perfectly sets the tone in every scene. Most of it is done by Cristobal, who apparently has had "creative differences" with the show's creator for the show's first three seasons. He's had enough arguing and won't be returning for the fourth season, which is honestly enough to make me skip it despite liking the show.
It's a mixed bag even in "normal" families. When I was growing up everybody was bullied by their older siblings. Sometimes the oldest would be protective at school; usually not. Most grew up to tolerate their siblings. The rest of us can barely stand them.
After moving around I found there actually were families where the siblings are really tight in adulthood. But even then it was always preceded by blow ups as teenagers and lots of fighting as kids.
I had the same issue, but he was perfect in this role. He's not exactly supposed to be super likable at first either, so it's a bit like watching Kevin Spacey in a creepy role. And he didn't make any money off me, so I don't feel too bad.
Yeah, that delayed reaction is what's throwing me. I'm hoping it's not bodies since that's too obvious. I also didn't catch if that was a drive-in freezer. It looked like a regular warehouse, but I'll have to rewatch that part. If it's bodies they should be smelly after 8 days.
It's so beautiful.
This is the face I make when my boss asks if I feel energized after taking a three day weekend.
I wasn't trying to correct you, I'm just an idiot who managed to spell it two different ways in the same post. It sounds like both spellings are valid, but I still shouldn't mix-n-match.
I would argue it's not only engrained in society, or even ingrained in the human psyche, it's engrained in nature itself. Violence in nature is often rewarded with subordinance, and our evolutionary lineage has certainly continued it.
Overcoming that instinct globally is going to require a huge cultural shift, but we will be much better off if we do.

In theory they aren't individuals anymore, they are appendages. So there would be no issue with consent the same way you decide consent for your hand or mouth. In a sense your mouth consents because it is part of the you making that decision.
Except... If there were any chance your hand could separate from you and become an individual in the future it'd be immoral to use it for sex now. And Carol is already very confident that it's possible to reverse the Joining. But even if she wasn't it was always a possibility. So having sex with any of them is incredibly wrong, which should be obvious to anybody on a gut level.
