Nothin'

I do try to give away the stuff that doesn't work to people who can actually use it (I truly don't want to keep things I don't need.) It's just a lot of trial and error. And I do try to DIY as much as I can to help mitigate costs but sometimes DIY adds too many steps and I don't complete anything.

Not to mention I'm sitting here looking at one time use products and thinking about how bad it is for the environment, but without it my house falls both into disrepair and filth. UGH

Part of loving someone is allowing them to make their own decisions regardless of how ill advised it may seem to you. It's not that you can't try to convince them otherwise, not that you can't express worry, but more of being there for them if and when they fall.

I mean, he's way more excited to see Endo, he was visibly upset to see Takishi hit him, he refers to him with the -sama suffix (even if it's just the once but once is enough for me) , and he doesn't seem perturbed by his behavior nearly as much as his weariness for Takishi wanting to play games with him. I don't know I feel like there is something there.

Bangoku-gai (god I hope I spelt that right) is a town hidden in the shadows of it's own city. The outside ring is the focal point, the part of the city that is allowed to be in the light, while it's actual city is left to fester in the dark. But they also insulate a lot of their residents from outsiders... but the part of them that is seen is to appease the tourists.

Which makes me feel like a lot of the food shortages within the city might be because they are prioritizing tourists eating at the restaurants more than feeding the locals. (which from my understanding happens quite a lot with over tourism in many places including Japan, hawaii, jamaica ect.. where the locals get priced out of living there.)

But also there has been a small through line of recent story elements (specifically with Sugishita) where there are people hiding in the shadows being privy to private conversations. Which, if Suo is used to traversing alley ways and staying out of sight, he may have been privy to quite a few private conversations. Both in Furin and Bangoku-gai... did he hear something he shouldn't have once and lost his eye?
