Shit, didn’t mean to give you guys a sloppy crop job. That was not cool. My bad.

When you’re confronted with overwhelming evidence that a few pounds or a coat of nail polish can make the difference between being a person and being a thing to almost everyone around you, it’s disorienting and repugnant. People who lose a lot of weight report this very often.

Two experiences in my personal life have done this for me: when I lost a lot of weight and suddenly everyone was super nice to me, and when I came out as nonbinary and everyone started picking ridiculous fights with me and being unbelievably rude. It’s like—“That’s all it takes?”

I have the kind of mental illness that can only be treated by repeated high doses of recreational drugs.

Wait do you still have to pay taxes if you aren’t too happy with how your money is going to be spent? I forget.

Ask yourself: What did I do for capital today? Am I being exploited enough? Did I enrich our shareholders? Could I have pushed this frail, mortal body any further than I did to perform profitable work?

Every time you commit a sin, I write it down on a slip of paper and put it into a jar with your name on it. I do this out of love.

Wow, I wonder why other people aren’t doing anything. Other people should really do something about this.

Before craft, before technique, all excellence—technical, artistic, moral—begins with seeing clearly.

It becomes clearer every day that “Death to America!” is not about hatred, but the kind of love necessary to save the lives of everyone on Earth.

I try to remember that whenever we talk about how much of a fucked up horror show the world is, what we mean is that the world is full of good people being wronged and beauty being destroyed, that we risk losing all of it—not a denial of the good in the world but its affirmation.

You’re not the only one who feels like you’re losing your mind. Everyone I talk to has said this to me. This world is taking a toll on all of us, even those who are trying not to pay attention. Let this connect you to other people in solidarity rather than isolate you.

I love rainbows because they’re so decadent, like nature couldn’t bear to choose just one color so it gives you every single fucking color!

Breathe out all the things you told people you’d do but haven’t done, and breathe in the certainty that none of it matters.

Sometimes when people ask me how I’ve been, lately, it’s this precise thing that I think about saying, but when I even start saying “I’m fine but like… having a hard time mentally because _____” I often can feel the person’s regret for asking me in the first place

How do you not burn and rage at the sight of these little body bags, small enough to hold the whole world inside? How do you not see our ruin and shame in the broken bodies of children? Are you even alive? How much longer do you think you’ll be able to keep pretending?

It may seem easy to turn your eyes away from the death and suffering of people you don’t know living and dying far away, but, whether you know it or not, what we need to realize fucking yesterday is that we’re all losing people in Lebanon, too—people we have no right to lose, who make us who we are.

AP Editor’s Pick: Times like these can put a strain on the vocal cords. Experts say to start with a few practice screams—and not to skimp on your screaming pillow.
