A major downside to convincing someone with on an emotional level instead of a logical one—or primarily with emotions rather than primarily with logic, because who truly only logial 🖖—is that emotions can change.

I can't help but think The Orchard are a bunch of dufuses

Middle class: courier packages can left at the front door

Drops of God (2023) was a solid show.

Multiple arcs of different colours does not a rainbow make

@Zonz So good!

In case capital punishment as a reality show doesn't work out.

I feel like I have heard of so many shows recently that are aimed at adult audiences and centred around staff at school. Why is that a thing? It seems like a weird niche.
