    The reason Ellie is so happy when she sees the tampon box is because she's a 14 year old girl in a post-apocalyptic world where resources are scarce. The reason she gets so excited about the little rubber cup Maria gives her is because it's a washable and reusable period product, as opposed to disposable ones like pads or tampons. Something like that is MUCH more valuable in this world, especially when you're traveling as much as she is.

    @pineappleboi1719 Рік тому +84

    Just a small thing, you should most definitely NOT pull out the thing you've been stabbed with, until you can get the proper treatment for the wound. Open wounds make you lose blood way quicker, and keeping the cause of the stabbing in will block most the blood from leaving your body. Friendly tip if you ever get stabbed.

    • @clover2739
      @clover2739 Рік тому +26

      That’s true. But in Joel’s situation it’s different, pulling it out was the better decision and I think people don’t understand that because they heard that keeping in a knife is better.
      Yeah that applies in normal situations if your stabbed with a knife and can wait for treatment.
      However what people don’t seem to understand is that for Joel, having a splintered wooden bat inside him and having to escape and literally ride on a horse, all that would do is rip his insides apart and kill him way quicker. It would probably kill him that quick that he wouldn’t get Ellie to safety first, pulling it out was smarter because even though he’s bleeding out he bides himself more time, especially for Ellie and has more chance of survival.
      Sorry to be a pain, but just in general I see so many people say Joel was wrong or an idiot for what he did because they hear a general fact like that without understanding different circumstances.

    The eye-opener for shows/games like this show is that it draws your attention to some real things that would happen in a situation where basic services break down; what preppers call "shit hits the fan."
    In those types of situations anyone who has not made preparations are going to experience the real life consequences; mainly, dealing with other people who want to take your shit. Barricading yourself in your house isn't going to help because eventually you will have to come out to find food/water/medicine or, in the worst case scenario, someone forces their way in to take whatever you have.
    All zombies aside, people are the real threat, and that is what you have to prepare for.

I have 0 interest in kill or be killed mentality and also 0 interest in surviving as long as possible for the sake of it. Quality over quantity. If I have to spend my life always watching over my back thats not living. I dont want to have to worry about people trying to murder me for my shit every day. Thanks. So no prepping for me. I'll live my life in the present day and enjoy it as much as possible. And if the horrible ever occurs then see you on the other side. We all go there eventualy with or without events like that. The after prep life is not one I would enjoy. And to me there is no point to life if there is no enjoying it anymore.

    Ah yes another episode of the crying simulator, lol.

Side note, the little boy who plays Sam is deaf in real life and this was his first acting gig and he was SO good, omg (that kid is going places).
    The show does an amazing job of balancing showing how strong and badass Ellie is while still having to remind everyone that she is still just a kid and that duality is heartbreaking at times. Every time Ellie is able to do something badass on her own, Joel feels both proud of her ability but also regret it was necessary which I feel would be a common theme in an environment like this.
    We also got a lot of Joel's backstory from the beginning with Sarah and all that, but the show has intentionally been vague about Ellie's backstory and slowly revealed more as the story goes on, and it's good to see that moment where she shoves Joel and Joel realizes that, as bad as he's had it losing Sarah, that doesn't mean others don't have their own tragic stories as well.

    Life advice : When you get stabbed with something, you should never pull it out, ever. This is especially true if the object that stabbed you as punctured a vital organ. the object is keeping the blood from flowing and preventing you from bleeding out.
    The stab victim is going into shock, continue to apply pressure to the wound to stop the blood coming out
    call 911 if you haven't already done so
    lie them down and lift their feet higher than the rest of their body. This keeps their legs higher than their heart, which helps increase blood flow to their brain and heart reassure them and wrap them in coats or a blanket to keep them warm.

    At the start of episode 3, Bill and Frank, Joel tells Ellie that Fedra evacuated people for Quarantine Zones--unless they were full then the people were killed. Ellie asked why kill them and Joel replies ... "The dead can't get infected."
    I have to hand it to the show runners. They do a good job of addressing many of the questions commonly overlooked--including menstrual hygiene (over a decade of THE WALKING DEAD and not once has the subject ever been breached by Carol, Andrea, Lori, Maggie, Beth, Michonne, et al, even after the first major time jump and woman takes over the job as show runner, and does a fantastic job at finally breathing new life into characters and adding hope and humanity to the show, even she did include even a passing reference to tampons or menstrual cups--much less other post apocalyptic shows).

    If the world got this dark and awful, I'd probably head up to the Rocky Mountains on a cold winter day, with a bottle (or two) of really good whiskey, sit down under a tree with a good view, and drink until I passed out with the snow falling around me.
    Beautiful way to go, I think.
    But if I *had* to stay alive, I'd head to the valley of the North Fork of the Gunnison River, somewhere near Paonia, Colorado, I think.

    the rubber thing Elie was interested in is called a diva cup ! its a reusable washable menstrual cup that expands inside and catches the blood. which would be very useful in an apocalypse considering other menstrual hygiene products are sparse to come by in their situation ofc so she's def exited to not have to use towels/rags/extra underwear that she would've been using instead of pads and tampons because its reusable and all :)

      One of the reasons the latest TWD seasons had so much hate is because they used excessive zombie scenes because they had no decent, thought out plot. But TLOU definitely does not have that problem, because it has such an amazing, heavy, and large plot it does not need excessive "zombie" scenes to fill it if it does not need it (plus the last 3 episodes make perfect sense as to why there are no infected as its established in the very first scene that cordyceps needs a homeostasis environmental temperature to survive).

Or could go to an empty island but there's also problems with that.

    The question if it's you inside is something I always wondered. I recently saw a documentary on cordicepts and recent discovery is that the fungus most likely doesn't control the briain, but the muscles. So I'm wondering if it controls you body, do you still consciously get to experience everything. Something like that happened in the movie "splinter", where a spikey fungus would grow in the skins and muscles and then bend your body in directions it's not supposed too, all while you where still in full control of your senses.

We both have swords and we establish a camp. The island is 34 km² and could be cleared within a couple weeks max. We start taking in survivors and establishing a community. Taking raiding parties in for supplies on the main island of Newfoundland beginning with Portugal cove, then establish a secondary base there, start raiding and clearing St John's until that's clear too, and so on until all of Newfoundland is clear. By then we'll be old and the remaining tasks will be up to the next generation but we'll have our stronghold, lush with plant and animal life and agriculturally productive
