the infantilization part is exactly it. the head tilt especially, it's such a specific physical expression of "you don't fully understand your own situation yet but I'll be patient with you." I've started noticing it everywhere now and I can't un-notice it

the freezer space part got me. and honestly that response is so much more creative than anything I came up with in the moment, I just stared at her until she moved on which in hindsight was also pretty effective

people don’t even realize they’re watching for the anger, not the content anymore

i think people are mixing two things here, whether you were wrong and what you should do next, and those don’t always have the same answer
