Kindle Notes & Highlights
as well as American classics by Charles Dickens
Ah yes, that famous "American" person who is Charles Dickens.
By the time Dorothy made it to a checkout line, twenty worried shoppers deep, all she’d been able to scavenge into her shopping bags were two cans of chopped clams, a jar of instant decaf, a package of tofu, extra firm, and three loaves of dark pumpernickel on clearance. Evidently urban Seattleites would rather starve or wait for the Red Cross to open a mobile kitchen than eat a loaf of stale bread labeled Dark Pump.
Okay, this is kind of funny.
Dorothy remembered an old line of poetry from Rupi Kaur: If people were rain, men would be drizzle, and women a hurricane.

😒😑
Bitch Media will be coming by a week after the IPO to do a piece about you. They’re small and based out of Portland, but their content is sensational and they have six million readers that are the definition of our primary target demographic.
Exposition for our basic readers, like Greta wouldn't know they exist? A creator of a feminist dating app would probably know!
Aside from struggling to accept that there was a news outlet called Bitch Media, Greta was as ready as she’d ever be.
I just don't buy that she's never heard of them.
