She truly is just a white woman at the end of the day an extremely unhinged one
The dramatics of the confession and fight with Candice are insane like girl was about to justify murder??

“The wildest thing about all this is that even now I cannot stop composing. I’m trying to funnel this awfulness into something Lovely.
Perhaps, if I can capture all my fears and constrain them safely on the page, this will rob them of their power. Don't all the ancient myths tell us that we gain control over a thing once we name it?”

"It's going to be fine," he says. "These things always feel like the end of the world when they're happening. But they're not. Social media is such a tiny, insular space. Once you close your screen, no one gives a fuck. And you shouldn't, either, all right?"

“I can't help but feel that there is some greater, karmic reason why my writing flow has returned. This feels like redemption. No-like absolution. For if I can write this thing on my own, if I can turn this whole horrible mess into a beautiful story, then ... well, it won't change what I've done. But it will assign artistic value to it all. It will be a way of revealing the truth without saying it.” Let’s see

Stopping isn't an option. I need to create. I want to move people's hearts. I want the world to wait with bated breath for what I will say next. I want my words to last forever. I want to be eternal, permanent; when I'm gone, I want to leave behind a mountain of pages that scream, Juniper Song was here, & she told us what was on her mind. Only I don't know what it is I want to say anymore. I don't know if I ever did.

She did it again girl cannot help herself, but this moved me:

“But I can't quit the one thing that gives meaning to my life.
Writing is the closest thing we have to real magic. Writing is creating something out of nothing, is opening doors to other lands.
Writing gives you power to shape your own world when the real one hurts too much. To stop writing would kill me.“

Shit is blowing up now and maybe coming back to bite her in the ass but who would June be without her delusions and warped version of reality but she is right about Twitter feeling like realer than real life

Lots of BTS mentions Okayy can’t fake influence they are iconic

The GUILT after the interaction with the sweet old Chinese man “make sure they remember us” omg I would be SICK and run away too but girlie is gonna keep this up and justify somehow

“This is what I love most about writing—it offers us endless opportunities to reinvent ourselves, and the stories we tell about ourselves. It lets us acknowledge every aspect of our heritage and history."
I never lied. That's important.“

This girl is so shameless in her justifications and it’s so funny

Breathless at her own audacity
