[ private ] I talked about my actual real opinion about the maintenance punishments to, like, three whole different people. Are ya proud of me?
PRIVATE:
Hey, I am proud of you! How did it feel getting it all out? I haven’t really been paying much attention to that because for once, I don’t really have to think about it, but I can tell that some people are angry.

And the start of the dream.”

Thanks, dude! I’m kinda proud of me. Uuuh, it didn’t feel the best but that could have been because the three people I spoke to about it agreed with the maintenance punishments. So. Yeah, that’s true you don’t. It’s billy bullshit that’s why but hey. The law ain’t gonna change cause people are angry about it. When has that ever happened?
PRIVATE:
Yeah, maybe not getting into arguments when you speak your mind is a better option. What exactly are they? Mayor Lee was saying something about becoming more connected, but how is forcing people to scene about connecting with people? I don’t know, plenty of laws have changed because people are angry. Giving people of color and women the right to vote, marriage equality, other things. None of those would have happened if people weren’t angry.

meet and greet | bliss
Fliss had spent time making sure that her apartment looked more lived in than usual, taking the covers off the furniture and draping a table cloth over the slightly dusty wood of the dining room table. She wanted Benji to feel welcome despite her own lack of interest in her home, she laid out tea fit for a king and then checked her watch waiting on the young boys arrival.
