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.

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

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

“…can you forgive a queen for embellishing the truth a teeny bit to reclaim a shred of her dignity?”
I doubt many of the details of their stories for exactly this reason.

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

Acuity- sharpness or keenness of thought, vision, or hearing
