Read Alisha's piece, for real. It's amazing and important.
I haven't really posted any excerpts from my archaic mother piece because I do believe it ought to be read in full, but I did just want to take a moment, apropos of *everything*, to remind u to read if not my piece then the second sex

I do believe I'm getting better as a writer, though I forget this a lot when I'm in a sad mood where I hate myself. I hope I never stop improving
