the recent heavy lean on the word “normal” around these parts is really interesting to me. the word “normal” is doing a Lot of work in the posts that employ it
“just be normal” is attractive because it allows you Not to actually delineate a position or make an argument for why that position is correct, but instead to fall back on the notion of a previously agreed-upon stance that someone else has deviated from—a stance (“normality”) that is baked into the social order or perhaps into the fabric of the universe. good argumentation? no. handy? yes
