Even the most left wing pope compared trans people to nuclear weapons, we’re almost certainly going to see a right wing pope come out of this. I don’t hate Catholics, I’m not saying anything about them whatsoever. I respect my Catholic friends and I love my Catholic family but no love for the pope.

Samantha Hunt, one of my colleagues at Bennington College, said earlier this semester: “One of the most radical things I do is move slowly.”

I think about it all the time. Slow, steady, determined.

Be the artist who, like a persistent trickle of water, ends up carving a canyon.
