Admittedly, I don’t take the train or bus anywhere near as much as I used to, but when I did there were always poster adverts about being respectful towards other riders and staff. Have those gone away, or is it that there is another influence supplanting that messaging?
Perhaps phones being much more engaging that people actually spend a lot less time reading the PSAs and adverts around them?
In a weirdly similar way, I remember pre COVID there used to be so many more drivers that would be blasting music with their windows down that it rarely deserved a second thought. It’s much more rare to hear it nowadays, to the extent that when I do, it seems so much more obnoxious.
Also the opposite side to it don’t keep hammering into somebody once they’ve admitted fault and are trying to rectify their mistakes (within reason).
People will be a lot more likely to be confident in admitting a mistake and being honest about it if it isn’t blown out of proportion.

It has sparked an interest in the works of R.D. Laing for who Lain is named in reference to.

Doesn’t it provide a safe way of preserving food that housing built before personal refrigeration became common won’t have (a larder, basement, or even shaded garden)?

My mum’s a child psychotherapist, from her perspective medication aught not to be the first thing people jump at, but it very much has it’s place; an example being children with ADHD who literally cannot sit down to the point of them getting distressed, actually being able to sit down and engage with therapy after starting medication. Similar things with anxiety and depression, if anxiety holds you back from opening up and personal thoughts and feelings then medication can enable that for therapeutic work to begin.
The bigger issue she has is when people (often parents) only want the medication but don’t want to try and engage with the therapy.

Communism is from each according to their ability, to each according to their want.
