“It feels good to criticize others into the ground when we are right and we know they are wrong. But it’s not good, it’s righteous, and the two seldom have anything to do with each other.” “I know, Boss.” I remember this lecture. It was in frequent rotation when I, or any other new provider, wanted to go out and spit in the face of every Ruralite who so much as looked at the House. I want to show Exlee how much I’ve changed, but sometimes the girl I was is sitting right beneath my skin, as toxic and reactionary as ever.
