You are not crazy, it’s the patriarchy
You’re not a loser, it’s the capitalism
You are not old, time’s not really a thing
You’re not alone, I’m here
You’re made of stars, that’s fucking cool

I Ask Percy How I Should Live My Life

Then, go to sleep.
Give up your body heat, your beating heart.
Then, trust.
