“walking Down Your Authentic Path Can Be One Of The Loneliest Roads To Travel On Because The Longer

SARAH SNOOK at the 2022 HBO Post-Emmy Awards Reception in California. By Mark Leibowitz.

can you even tell this is one of my favourite poems

Emily Dickinson, from her poem titled "1188," featured in The Emergency Poet

“Do you realize that all great literature is all about what a bummer it is to be a human being? Isn’t it such a relief to have somebody say that?”

— Kurt Vonnegut, A Man Without a Country

(Favourite female characters: Holly Golightly.)

Yes, I think that she was aromantic or at least in the aro spectrum. She was only with the man at the end of story, because it was 1959 and her character was kind of problematic itself. I love her so much. She is endearing and while a traumatised character, Holly was goofy and perceptive enough.

Ta-Nehisi Coates, from Between the World and Me

Text ID: The pursuit of knowing was freedom to me, the right to declare your own curiosities and follow them through all manner of books. I was made for the library, not the classroom. The classroom was a jail of other people's interests. The library was open, unending, free.
