Terrific! I'm happy to hear that!
And watching her drive to places and get groceries. And we watch other people walk and drive. In the episode before the most recent one, we saw her and another character make avocado toast. It's great television!
If you think Pluribus is too slow I straight up don't respect you
Pluribus should be SLOWER!
FEWER THINGS SHOULD HAPPEN PER EPISODE!!!
There really is no feeling like going to the airport two and a half hours before your flight, getting past airport security, and taking an enormous, three-part dump.

If you enjoy something because an alien virus makes you enjoy it, is that really genuine?
I get that doing a hive mind story is gonna lead to obvious parallels with communism but there are so many that I can't help but wonder if the whole thing isn't meant to be a metaphor for a revolution. They're even throwing threat of a famine out on the horizon of the centrally planned economy. This just screams 'sure what we have now sucks, but the alternative is worse,' imo.
I read a tweet that argued against the "hive mind = communism" thing very well: "The Pluribus mind hive has realized communism as an abstract universal in which every individual is a mere predicte of the universal mind, but fails to realize communism as a concrete universal in which the self-development of each individual enriches and unfolds humanity."

I see your point, but I'd be more mad at the alien hive mind that forcefully assimilated me into itself without my consent, assuming I ever get my individuality back. Bad as it is to drug and almost kill someone, Carol is trying to save the human race.
Hoping the best for you and your dad

I read a quote from Vince Gilligan saying he had as many as four seasons planned out but it could go as long as five.

That last scene was creepy as hell. Zosia stands expectantly, waiting for Carol to come over, saying nothing, her face giving away nothing, and only smiles once Carol falls apart in her arms. Really seals for me that the hive does obey the rules the show has laid out, but it's still incredibly manipulative.
you didn't read it
