Status Updates From Disappoint Me

definitely just reading this for the sake of finishing it

"She might be trying to save face, but I don’t think that’s a bad thing. People closer to you put up with your worst, even if it’s bad for you—spiraling is easy when it’s done against a frictionless surface."

"I didn’t have the energy to explain to her that, in liberal society, much discrimination comes from people who think they’re on the inside. I also didn’t have the energy to explain that some Chinese people are actually quite racist."

"Some trans women serve cunt, in that they’re quite rude, because when the world shits on you it’s easy to be a little mean, but she sent a negroni back for having too thin an orange slice on the rim. No amount of pain excuses that."

i am admittedly in a very bad reading slump so i’m not sure of my desire to dnf this is because i have a desire to dnf everything or if it is because i really don’t like this book that much.

Transphobia 💔

I like the romantic dynamic more than the parts exploring the family dynamic.
