Me thinks Delores lacks object permanence.

2024-06-06 23:24:13 +0000 UTCI am admittedly very defensive on this topic, and probably overthink as I strive to be cognizant about where a societial norm originates, who decides it's a norm, and is it really a norm. In this case I think you're probably correct, as hard eye contact for prolonged periods is usually seen as being aggressive....thinking of jokes the Puzzle in a Thunderstorm folx frequently make about maintaining eye contact... I think my defensiveness comes from people (once again not lumping you in) who have decided that their white Christian suburban middle class norm is am objectively the right thing, and everything else is "weird" or "strange" or just wrong. So on first listen, when you said this was weird, my defensive emotional state went up...albeit it went up in error this time. Thanks for responding, apologies if I came across as accusing, and thanks as always for great content that makes us think.
