“A number of children kept coming over to the tennis courts, rattling on the gate, and trying to get in. The watching middle-class mums did nothing to restrain them. Eventually my friend yelled, “Go AWAY!” Whereupon the watching mums did do something. A mob of them descended on us as though my friend had exposed himself. Suddenly we were in the midst of a maternal zombie film. It was the nearest I’ve ever come to getting lynched—they were after my friend rather than me and though, strictly speaking, I was his opponent, I was a tacit accomplice—and a clear demonstration that the rights of parents and their children to do whatever they please have priority over everyone else’s. “A child is the very devil,” wrote Virginia Woolf in a letter, “calling out, as I believe, all the worst and least explicable passions of the parents.”
Geoff Dyer, Selfish, Shallow, and Self-Absorbed: Sixteen Writers on The Decision Not To Have Kids

“Empowered by my many resurrections.”
Erica Alex, Cake in the Blackbird Stew

“Meet me deep in the heart or nowhere at all.”
Erica Alex, Cake in the Blackbird Stew

“A soft spot for night creatures, i.e., cats and women.”
Erica Alex, Cake in the Blackbird Stew

Patricia Lockwood
“What she worried for was not just her sister's life but her originality. She loved Star Wars so much, fur instance, that she had walked down the aisle to "The Imperial March". Would the impulse to walk down the aisle to "The Imperial March" - which seemed the essence of survival itself, the little tune we hummed in the dark - would that make it out of whatever was happening alive?”
Patricia Lockwood, No One Is Talking About This
