Soraya Chemaly: The power of women’s anger
Y'all hear his voice cracking like fresh puberty?! He MAD mad and that’s what I want from Democrats in Congress.
“What is going on?! You are in charge of the House, Senate, and White House. Get a grip and learn how to govern the country!”
(He wanted to cuss so bad. 💅)
Why do the young poets all write about Persephone?
Maybe it’s because we can relate.
To a goddess?

Brilliant
Just impatient to get on with it.
Loneliness is the human condition. Cultivate it. The way it tunnels into you allows your soul room to grow. Never expect to outgrow loneliness. Never hope to find people who will understand you, someone to fill that space. And an intelligent, sensitive person is the exception, the very great exception. If you expect to find people who will understand you, you will grow murderous with disappointment. The best you’ll ever do is to understand yourself, know what it is that you want, and not let the cattle stand in your way.
