I love Ocean Vuong so much oh my god.

Frantically trying to finish this before class tmrw, lol

Don’t you love this habit I’ve gotten myself into? Starting books without finishing the ones I’m currently reading…

“The fact is that worth is a matter of opinion, and opinion is informed by culture. And if that culture is as male-biased as ours is, it can’t help but be biased against women. By default.”

“Nor should you forget that although it’s easy to distinguish between what is said in jest and what in earnest, when it comes to people who mean so much to us that our lives depend on them, then it isn’t so easy after all, the risk is so great it turns our eyes into microscopes, and once equipped with those it’s impossible to distinguish anything.”

KAFKA WAS SUCH A GOOD WRITER!!!!!
