Weird execution but I love me a middle aged butch for butch !

“What if big heads are a symptom of RA?” the lines in this damn book are SENDING ME

oh i’m eating this up.

“Okay, God” Cracks me up each time

Adam my bbg i’m proud of you. and ronan i love you

holy shit. Everything is connected asf

one of my theories has been proven!! Also Adam is such a flirt

Guys i have so many theories. Literally piecing stuff together since the first few chapters. My highlights look crazy. i’m locked in

something so devious about my kobo updating, restarting and resetting…Deleted all my local files, my highlights and notes…oh! and disconnected me from the library. Crash out asf.

The audiobook is so good !! and yes i did cry during that one chapter. My bbg.

I’m on the edge of my seat. so invested. making up so many theories and shipping sm people

“ Solidarity is not a crime, and neither is self-defense against suppression! I unite with you and the struggle to fight capitalist racism, fascism, and war for profit!”

“‘Yearning,” I repeated softly. ‘What a beautiful word to hear a butch say out loud.”

“It’s changed the way I think. I grew up believing the way things are now is the way they’ve always been, so why even bother trying to change the world? But just finding out that it was ever different, even if it was long ago, made me feel things could change again. whether or not I live to see it.”

“It’s not going to be day or night, Jess. It’s always going to be that moment of infinite possibility that connects them.”

This book is far from perfect but it officially holds a sweet spot within me

“ I wanted to find out who I was, to define myself. Whoever I was, I wanted to deal with it, I wanted to live it again. I wanted to be able to explain my life, how the world looked from behind my eyes.”

“Butches are wonderful about lending a hand. But that’s not all you’re good for. Butches have moved my world. They’ve made me feel beautiful in the world took that away from me. It’s butch love that’s sustained me.”

first official cry. so many little and big things hit

“‘My mother says I should be something special when I grow up’… I cup her head with my hand. ‘yYou already are,’ I said”

“I don’t feel like a man trapped in a woman’s body. I just feel trapped….”

“Because what if I’m not? What if it turned out I’m something even worse than I thought? Maybe it’s better not to know.”

“ I don’t know what the fuck I am. I just don’t wanna be different anymore. There’s no place to hide. I just want everything to stop hurting so much.”

fuck

this is such a rough read, in the best sense of the word! conversation with queer elders. Also, the nuance of queerness and identity!!!

lump in my throat
