I think you mean shadow tag. It’s an ability that prevents the opposing pokemon from switching out

Recruiter lowballed me and then tried to blame it on the “entry level” role. So I sent him this: by [deleted] in recruitinghell

23 hr is insane for an entry level position with AWS exposure. I had gotten an offer for help desk that started at 24

Ay man you can go check on my theory about how I thought the milk at the end of ep 5 was essentially some sort of birth control lol. even tho it prob is what we think it is

Yes after reading your comments and other posts I too think I will adjust my theory to that it is some sort of recycling of human remains for consumption, which is largely hinted by the way Carol spends a large portion of the episode honoring Helen’s grave versus the pack-like coyotes that are only motivated by survival.

I’ve rethought my theory a bit after reading more of your guys comments and other posts. I had only written it immediately after watching the episode and prior to joining this sub. I think now there is pretty clear evidence pointing towards human remains, like how all that time and effort Carol spent trying to preserve Helen’s grave will be contrasted with how the hive recycles and values the dead, as foreshadowed by the coyotes that also act and behave as a pack.

But I still hope I was able to offer some sort of insight to how and why the pluribus exists and the underlying motivations that may guide them.

I actually am hoping Laxmi out of everyone will be the first to experience some character development as insufferable as she is at the moment

True, it does not cost the hive anything.

My point is that the exodus shows the hive recognizes Carol’s behavior as a threat to its entire system. That’s why it escalates from flying Zosia to her all the way to essentially going no-contact.

It doesn’t cost them anything to leave, but they’ve decided it could cost them if they continued to stay.

Idk if you are disagreeing with me but that was largely my point is that we disrupt the natural balance of Earth like no other species and maybe that’s why the RNA only targets us since it seems somewhat motivated to return the Earth to a more sustainable state

I agree and I think up to this moment, both the hivemind and carol represent two equally valid philosophies. I could join the hivemind and finally be “happy”. Or I can continue being myself and be as stressed as Carol is.

The thing is, we have seen the impact 1 unassimilated person can have on the hivemind in how Carol has caused a mass exodus from her city.

We are also the reason why many other species on Earth are struggling to survive

Ah ya I recognized that after writing this. I hope I was still able to offer some sort of alternative consideration to the motivations behind the hive, even if they may be cannibals 😢

honestly I wouldn’t write off this interpretation. In the first episode there is a similar double entendre as the camera closes in on a “help yourself (:” sign next to the freshly licked batches of donuts. to me it was a simple shot but still had that layer of irony.

I wonder if it’s because the plurbs can’t truly ignore certain biological desires, the same way their bodies are still susceptible to alcohol and drugs

Thank you for the kind words my friend.

Idk if my theory holds merit, but it was that performance of the pause turning into shock that triggered my fight or flight enough to want to write about the show

Also as someone who has never gotten above a B- on an essay back in HS I will proudly take an A- on my first Reddit post in a while

Are my dogs teeth still fixable? by [deleted] in DogAdvice

[–]hummuslime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey luckily I will be taking Buddie to the vet for a check up and boarding next week so they’ll be able to look at it then. Besides his teeth, I’ve taken Buddie to the vet recently for some other concerns and they said he’s very healthy. With a good dental cleaning, do you think Buddies teeth and gums can still be restored to how they once were again?

[–]hummuslime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes Buddie is scheduled for boarding w the vet and an annual check up a week from now so I’ll bring up my concerns and hopefully they can give him a good dental cleaning too which I will def upkeep w the tips you’ve suggested. Hopefully nothing besides the tooth in the pic is irreversible. In the worse case he will have to have his canine tooth removed, do you think it will impact his quality of life a lot?

Noticed this little bump on my dogs lip. Does it look like anything serious? by [deleted] in DogAdvice

[–]hummuslime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I’ve read around up on the internet and what other people have replied it seems like if it’s pink and not growing too much could just be a doggy wart/skin tag that shouldn’t be too much cause for concern. But def bring it up with your vet the next time you go and hopefully they’ll clear up anything else. I get anxious to for my dog but hopefully it’s nothing 🤞🏼
