Once we name something, you said, we can never see it the same way again. All that is unnameable falls away, gets lost, is murdered.
“Social media is biased, not to the Left or the Right, but downward. The relative ease of using negative emotions for the purposes of addiction and manipulation makes it relatively easier to achieve undignified results.

Information warfare units sway elections, hate groups recruit, and nihilists get amazing bang for the buck when they try to bring society down.”

“Queer femme4femme desire is a balance of being careful and being daring. We take our time. We laugh about how we both lean towards being bottoms and subs. We laugh at ourselves for saying we are switches. We pretend to be tops and argue about who is going to carry whose bag. Let me get that. No, let me get that.”
