"This cosmic dance of bursting decadence and withheld permissions twists all our arms collectively, but if sweetness can win—and it can—then I'll still be here tomorrow, to high-five you yesterday, my friends. Peace." paypal.me/HNoble994 $BoobPunchTina
![My friend Heather Smith remarked to me recently that young
women are urged to “never stop picturing their murder.” From
childhood onward, we were instructed to not do things—not go
here, not work there, not go out at this hour or talk to those people
or wear this dress or drink this drink or partake of adventure,
independence, solitude; refraining was the only form of safety of-
fered from the slaughter. During those years at the end of my teens
and the beginning of my twenties, I was constantly sexually ha-
rassed on the street and sometimes elsewhere, though harassed
doesn’t convey the menace that was often present. [screenshot from galleys]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ya7gfadgypyypiva5pboi6mi/bafkreia6uwz7u3j2er4r2uhqag65aqobgw6smz4gmeiplktbd3mv2wujg4)
