Never mind that everyone else in the world has gone through at least one bad breakup; ours—our current one, never any of the ones before—is the worst.

So we cut, or burn, or starve, or purge, or write all over ourselves with Sharpies, or imprison ourselves in basements.”
― Stacy Pershall, Loud in the House of Myself: Memoir of a Strange Girl

“Men who refuse to use condoms do not deserve to be fucked by anyone but other men who refuse to use condoms.”
