and it's going to hurt rural areas the most. some of them could lose up to 50% their revenue overnight, which will almost certainly lead to them shutting down. and then what happens next time there's some disaster that knocks out the internet and there aren't any local radio stations left to inform the people when and where to take shelter?

you might not mind too much if you lived in a time when women didn't have their own bank accounts or source of income not controlled by their husbands. it was actually a decent rule when it was the only thing of real value you truly owned and could sell if you needed to gtfo of an abusive relationship or give you a bit of breathing room if you were widowed suddenly (and your husband's family decided not to take care of you once he was gone).

but yes, now a days is definitely overkill.

Or because it's not immediately recognizable as writing. I wonder how long it would have taken archeologists to figure out the quipu was actually a knot-based writing system without the Spanish mentioning their use by the Incas in their records of the invasion.

my boyfriend and my mom both have that. makes for some fun dinners, since my dad is a super loud eater (tbh, even i get annoyed by my dad eating, lol). luckily, my mom trained me up in the ways of polite eating from like day one, so no friction on my behalf!

and they never have exactly what you need either. the number of times i've come home empty handed and had to buy online anyway is rediculous
