What about the methodological method? A heuristic of methodology?
I assume that the actual study or philosophy of methods merits an -ology on the end of it, or examining methods themselves in the context of research, or studying methods in regards to software development.
But there’s no reason for a business person to say, “the methodology we employ ensures maximum client return.” That is not about studying the methods of research, or analzying an approach for developing software, or talking about the transcendence of philosophical thinking.

Who cares about the Str*d*rs . . . . I wanna know how Rose and Roxy interact, haha
a lot of really awkward assumptions for the first few weeks! roxy is a very huggy person and rose is Weird about physical affection but they work it out. she cant get over how genuinely excited roxy gets about really little stuff but at the same time she feels like she’s known her all along. there’d be an adjustment for sure but they’d be like sisters pretty fast! (they would, definitely never in a million years live in the same house though. that would be a disaster)

Southern culture still has elements of that violent honor culture. Being rude may get you shot, yes, but if you’re rude you’re more likely to get into a fist fight with someone demanding respect.
I’ve been told this before, yeah.
It might amuse you to know that being rude up here (like, sincerely rude, rather than just a lack of performative politeness) will usually result in yelling. I wont say it never can become a fight, but people will yell back and forth at each other and one will eventually choose to leave, or they yell at each other as they are mutually leaving. There’s a lot more focus on communicating to the other person that they’re full of shit than actually demanding they pay up for it somehow. east coasters when inconvenienced want you to know you’re an asshole and you to leave knowing you’re an asshole and for you have to deal with that you got yelled at all day afterward, more than they want to pay them back somehow, or more than they want to extract the value you took by being an asshole.

Also, note that one of her last actions in the episode is verbally abusing Peridot in the hopes she can humiliate her into switching sides. Jasper talks about Rose Quartz manipulating "defective" gems to join her, even as she tries to manipulate another gem in hopes of using her.
Like this is another reason why I say that she as a character is really deliberately invoking motifs of abuse and interpersonal control. Many abuse survivors relate stories about how their abuser was under the impression their target could do the same things they did, back to them. Or were just waiting for some moment of vulnerability to lash out, and they had to ‘control’ the other person to prevent that from happening. It leads to abusive parents thinking their children have some measure of control over them, abusive partners feeling threatened by somebody they threaten daily, etc.
Assuming the rest of the world will do the same things back to you that you do to it, and framing the actions of others in that context, is like, one of the kinds of storytelling that abusive people use most frequently to justify their actions. If they didn’t do it, it would be done to them. Everybody does it around them, secretly. These actions are normal. I’m better than just about everybody else, they’d do much worse than me. etc.
