something something something about how parker is afraid of death and has had to lose her pseudo father figure and then eliot is acting all weird and unlike himself and she is internally panicking because.
eliot can’t die.
not eliot.
she could survive nate’s death because she had sophie and hardison and eliot. but eliot dying? that’s not something she could cope with, ever. that’s not in her five year plan, not in her ten year plan, not ever. she won’t let him.
so she and hardison are laying in bed getting ready to go to sleep or are on a date night or breaking into somewhere (or both) and she tells hardison that they can’t lose eliot and he’s on the same page. so they craft out the Robot Bodies.
and now eliot is acting strange and pushing her away and she fears because she can’t lose eliot, not now, not ever

I think we should talk more about the non-sexual ways Shiv is objectified, both by her family but also by Eavis. Maybe objectified isn’t quite the right word, but - I think it’s pretty clear that the main reason Gil wants her on the campaign is that she’s an effective piece of leverage to use against ATN. She has inside knowledge they can use, and (as we saw in Sad Sack Wasp Trap) the fact that her name is on the building means that she has access other political consultants don’t get. She also very quickly becomes The Angle when Gil is on ATN, to her own chagrin. That’s absolutely NOT to say she’s not good at her job - she’s clearly been instrumental in Joyce having the political success she has. But that makes this setup all the more frustrating once it becomes clear that Gil doesn’t really value her knowledge and skill so much as the leverage her being on staff gives her. He doesn’t really see her as a whole person, whose expertise is valuable to him; instead she is “The Roy,”and he can use that to his advantage.
(I think there’s no argument more compelling in regards to his lack of respect for her as a person than the fact that he goes to her wedding and then spends the entire time actively pressuring her to give him dirt on her family, even before he finds out Logan is going to be there. It’s not just what he wants, but the particular timing - this is her wedding, and he’s not willing to wait even 48 hours, until this family event is done. I know things move fast in news and politics, but there’s no way waiting until after the wedding or even after the honeymoon would have been that detrimental to his campaign).
And then, maybe more obviously, her family objectifies her as “The Woman”. Of course this clearly happens throughout Season 3; as the fallout from cruises keeps spiralling, it’s clear that her new position and the ways she’s been pushed to the forefront have little to do with Logan respecting her skills and abilities and everything to do with image. They need to have a Woman on their side. And this is all the more outrageous because, while I do think she has significant flaws that make her not a good fit for CEO, she DOES have skills and abilities specifically in the arena of “public image” that would be incredibly useful in this situation - but her family doesn’t value her as a whole person, so they overlook her expertise and focus on what her existence as The Woman would do for them. This is why they ignore her input in 3.06; it’s why ends up becoming the “grope geiger meter” in 2.06, paraded onstage at the panel to make Nan hopefully feel better about the Roy’s approach to the cruises scandal; it’s why in Logan’s eyes her main value to the strategy at Ternhaven is “the woman thing”. It’s even apparent in the conversation they have in 2.02, where Logan lays out a possible timeline for her becoming CEO immediately after commenting on his need to find, essentially, diversity token board members. She has skills and abilities and intelligence, but she is also The Woman, and that overtakes every other aspect of her person.

Best Methods to Sell Print on Demand Gadgets Online (Part 2)
Do you adore Apple products? Perhaps you have a strong interest in the most recent laptops or a thorough understanding of cutting-edge smartphones. Whatever the reason, now could be an excellent time to launch an online gadgets store, especially given that the consumer gadgets industry in the United States alone is expected to be worth $2.06 trillion by 2023. However, selling online isn't always easy – and you might find yourself at a loss for where to begin. But don't worry; this ultimate guide to selling print on demand gadgets online will assist you. Continue reading to learn more.
 
How to Sell Print on Demand Gadgets Online? (Part 2)
 
3. Show Your Gadgets
When selling online, it's critical to present your products in a way that entices customers to buy. Although most online stores rely solely on images and product descriptions, using videos can be an excellent way to highlight the key features of the gadgets you're selling.
 
Product Descriptions
Your product descriptions should communicate important information like model numbers, key features, and functionality when selling gadgets online. Take the time to write excellent product descriptions; they will pay off in the long run. A good product description that includes keywords can help you improve your website's search engine rankings.
 
Product Photos
When it comes to customer gadgets, the product's appearance plays a significant role in the purchasing decision. Use well-lit images with a white background to make it easy to identify key product features. You can also take photos of the products being used to give viewers an idea of what they will look like once they have them.
 
Product Videos
Including a product video in your online store will provide customers with a better understanding of how it will work. Because many customers rely on different interfaces, you could also include videos to demonstrate how smooth and simple the products you sell are to use. Product videos are especially important if you're selling used electronics because they give customers peace of mind that the product is working properly.
 
4. Set a Price for Your Gadgets
When selling major brand names such as Apple, Microsoft, Dell, and HP, each product will typically come with a suggested retail price. It can make pricing your products much easier. You will, however, need to consider some factors to ensure that you are pricing your products competitively while also making a profit. While the consumer electronics industry is competitive, being the cheapest does not always guarantee success. You can often charge more for your product when you can leverage brand value, customer service, and overall dependability.
 
5, Pack and Ship Your Gadgets
Product packaging and shipping are critical aspects of any online business. It can account for a significant portion of your overall gadget-selling costs and, as such, should be thoroughly considered to avoid unpleasant surprises later on. Because the fragility of gadgets varies, it's important to assess your packing requirements. Fortunately, there is numerous print on demand fulfillment companies available to assist you in getting your gadgets to your customers. It is, however, critical to read their terms and conditions.
 
6. Promote your gadgets
No one will know about your business if you do not market it. And if no one knows about it, you won't be able to sell anything. In other words, no matter how good your online store is, if you can't attract traffic, you're doomed. It is why marketing is so crucial. There are numerous ways to market your business. When selling electronics online, it makes sense to concentrate on the most effective digital marketing and promotion methods.
 
Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
The higher you rank in search results, the more people visit your website. So, if you can appear at the top of Google's search results for terms closely related to your products, you'll get many people who are ready to buy on your site. Great SEO is time-consuming and may necessitate numerous technical changes to your website.
 
Social Media
Social media is an excellent free tool for growing and engaging an audience. Social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok have a lot of consumer attention and are great places to reach out to your target audience. Make use of these platforms to amuse and educate your customers. Don't always go for the direct sell; instead, get their attention and establish yourself, and they'll come to you with their needs.
 
Paid Advertisements
Paid ads are an excellent way to reach those important to your electronics business quickly. Unlike social media, SEO, and email marketing, the number of people you can reach with paid ads is only limited by your budget. You can use paid social ads for any online store, but they perform best when you own your website.
 
Email Marketing
Building an active email marketing list for your online gadgets business can be a time-consuming process. Still, it will eventually provide you with a ready-to-buy audience whenever you send them an engaging and compelling email. Finding incentives such as discounts and fresh and relevant content is a great way to grow your email marketing list.
 
 
It's your Turn to Start Selling!
It's not easy to sell electronics online. However, if you get it right, there are enormous opportunities to profit. Once you've mastered the preceding list, you're ready to begin selling print on demand gadgets online. On the other hand, doing it alone is not a good strategy. You need the services of a top eCommerce fulfillment company that specializes in print on demand services. You require Fulfillplex. Visit us now to learn more about how we can assist you with your online business and receive a quote.

In season 2, when do you think Rio knew that Beth hadn't actually killed Boomer? We can assume he had his people find the body after they get rid of it, but we never actually get a pointed moment where we can tell he knows and the girls don't know yet...right? Do you think he knew it was the wrong body before the girls went to him for help to take care of it?
Y’know, this is actually something I’ve thought about a lot, and when I re-watched the show before s3, I sort of concluded to myself that he knew after retrieving the body in 2.05. 
I think it makes sense in terms of him wanting to hold onto the body in the first place as leverage against her (and so she didn’t know he knew she hadn’t actually handled Boomer), and I think it also makes sense with how patronising he is at the start of 2.06 with the cars, and how wildly his expressions range in the final scene during their argument in the office at Boland Motors (I think there’s an argument there to be made that he was debating whether or not to reveal his hand or wait things out). 
I don’t think he knew before that though, no. I’m not sure there’s any real way he could have unless he had somebody with eyes on Mary Pat, and given he – in theory – doesn’t know who Mary Pat is, or at least has little reason to waste resources keeping tabs on her, he shouldn’t have seen Mary Pat hit him, nor Boomer flee to Marion’s place. 
I’m not 100% sure though! What do you guys think?

Best Methods to Sell Print on Demand Gadgets Online (Part 1)
Do you adore Apple products? Perhaps you have a strong interest in the most recent laptops or a thorough understanding of cutting-edge smartphones. Whatever the reason, now could be an excellent time to launch an online gadgets store, especially given that the consumer gadgets industry in the United States alone is expected to be worth $2.06 trillion by 2023. However, selling online isn't always easy – and you might find yourself at a loss for where to begin. But don't worry; this ultimate guide to selling print on demand gadgets online will assist you. Continue reading to learn more.
 
How to Sell Print on Demand Gadgets Online?
 
1. Source Your Gadgets
You'll need to source gadgets before you can start selling them online. There are several options to consider for this and suitability for your specific goals and situation.
 
Wholesale
When looking for products for your business, the first place you'll probably look is a gadgets wholesaler – this is how most online and local gadgets stores get their products. On new gadgets, wholesalers will usually offer relatively competitive prices. They're also likely to have a good stock level, allowing you to get the products you need when you need them. Some wholesalers may have minimum order requirements, so consider where you'll store your gadgets before selling them.
 
Print on Demand Fulfillment
If you don't want to waste time sourcing and storing products, print on demand fulfillment can be a great option. When using print on demand services, your primary goal is to market and sell as many products as possible. When an order is received, it is routed to the company that fulfills it. It reduces storage and eliminates the need to deal with shipping and distribution companies' often complex arrangements. Of course, less effort equals less profit. It can be much more difficult to make a reasonable profit on each product you sell when hiring a print on demand company. That is why it is best to concentrate on volume.
 
Second Hand
Selling used gadgets can be a lucrative business venture. However, it can take significantly longer than purchasing from a wholesaler or print on demand fulfillment products. You're also dealing with uncertainty about future stock levels, which could make meeting customer demand difficult. However, if you can pull it off, sourcing and selling used gadgets can be very profitable and environmentally friendly. You can find used gadgets almost anywhere, from yard sales, eBay, Facebook Marketplace, and Amazon.
 
 
2. Sell Your Gadgets Online
Touch the surface of the online gadgets business, and you'll discover a plethora of options for where to sell.
 
Personal Website
Creating your own online store is arguably the best way to sell gadgets online. When you do this, you create a true asset – not to mention one over which you have complete control. Using a market-leading website builder, such as Wix or Shopify, will provide you with all of the tools you need to create a website that you can use to grow your business quickly and easily. Although all online selling platforms have advantages, owning your own site gives you the most room to grow.
 
Marketplaces
You can sell gadgets on several online marketplaces. The most popular are Amazon and Walmart. Using an online marketplace has several advantages, including ease with payments. However, there are some disadvantages to using an online marketplace. Unlike your website, you do not own the platform, which means you have little control over any changes to it, such as changes in functionality or commission increases.
 
Social Media
Many major social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest, now allow you to sell directly to your customers, eliminating the need to link to an external site. It is a great way to tap into your audience's engagement with social media platforms while also leveraging the following and hype you've built on your own social channels. However, there are some drawbacks to using online marketplaces, such as having little control over the platform and how your business operates on it. Most businesses that sell on social media pair it with their online store to expand their reach and make it easier for their customers to buy from them.
 
Trade-in
A trade-in site is a final option for selling gadgets online. Unlike online stores, marketplaces, or social media, these sites guarantee to buy your products and price them based on the model, age, and condition. You'll usually get a much lower price for your products if you sell them on these sites. They do, however, save you a significant amount of money on sales, marketing, and store setup. These sites can be profitable if you can find cheap second-hand gadgets or shift stock from your online store that isn't selling.
