146

Liminal- occupying a space on the boundary or threshold of something, or being on both sides of it

Vituperatively- bitterly, abusively

It sucks that the book is picking up so much *in the end*. It’s either that or I’m just happy to be close to finishing it.

The stories that they chose to go into detail with vs the ones that get a passing mention are not exactly my first choices

I doubt the credibility of people who use long direct quotes in memoirs.

During their stories, there are so many “thoughts I had at the time” that I think were only added after the fact in order to seem more PC.

Indelibly- in a way that cannot be removed or forgotten

Clarion- (historical) a shrill narrow-tubed war trumpet

For such a woke person, they didn’t capitalize Black. Tsk tsk. /joking

Re: comparing oneself to god/jesus, it’s not about that, it’s about showing off my knowledge of the Bible and wanting to make Sunday school teachers proud. Can you blame me?

Yes, yes I can. It’s so out of place and unnecessary. If you aren’t really equating yourself with Jesus, then don’t. They’re coming off pretentious enough without the extra Christian shit

Pusillanimous- timid; cowardly; showing a lack of courage or determination
