Here's the thing though, 90% of her life IS tuned down. Every time she's not worrying about how to pay the bills. How to get to work. How many presents there will be for Christmahannukwanzakkuh. Hell even how much this week's groceries are going to cost from her own store thst she almost certainly doesn't get most of her groceries from.

She just doesn't realize it, because that's not a life she's experienced. She has absolutely no way to empathize because it's as foreign to her as a guinea pig flying an airplane.

I always wondered why people fly an airline effectively calling itself death.
