my current favorite activity is telling people i’m so grateful to exist in a universe which allowed us to meet. platonic and romantic relationships require giving people their flowers.
i may be dramatically emotional but i never want someone to wonder if they matter to me

this is my boss. the judicial seat she was to fill is held by a previous public defender. she would’ve been our circuit’s first female judge. i am full of rage and sadness. she deserves better. women of south carolina deserve better.
