We have managed to get ourselves into quite the predicament it seems. At this point I'm not even sure there is a way out, and even less sure we'd take it if there was. This sort of thing has become normalized to a disturbing degree, with everyone's responses taking on the aspect of a ritual. Hell, it's easy to forget that this isn't the normal for everyone. Watching it all unfold from up close is something else though, like it just registers differently.
