those are harsh words to throw at a man. especially when he's walking out of your bedroom.
o every time i question my love for amanda palmer, something like this pops up on the internet.

Joss Whedon’s speech at Equality Now
“‘So, why do you write these strong women characters?’
Because equality is not a concept. It’s not something we should be striving for. It’s a necessity. Equality is like gravity, we need it to stand on this earth as men and women, and the misogyny that is in every culture is not a true part of the human condition. It is life out of balance and that imbalance is sucking something out of the soul of every man and women who’s confronted with it. We need equality, kinda now.
‘So, why do you write these strong female characters?’
Because you’re still asking me that question.”
the quiet world
In an effort to get people to look
into each other’s eyes more,
the government has decided to allot
each person exactly one hundred
and sixty-seven words, per day.
When the phone rings,I put it
to my ear without saying hello.
In the restaurant I point
at chicken noodle soup. I am
adjusting well to the new way.
Late at night, I call my long
distance lover and proudly say
I only used fifty-nine today.
I saved the rest for you.
When she doesn’t respond, I know
she’s used up all her words
so i slowly whisper I love you,
thirty-two and a third times.
After that, we just sit on the line
and listen to each other breathe.
- Jeffrey McDaniel
Looking through my old folders. I used to date a Sagittarius long-distance. she was, and still is, wonderful.

Action de lire, de déchiffrer visuellement des signes graphiques
qui traduisent le langage oral. Lecture à haute voix, mentale, silencieuse.
Still, white ink.
