“Pointless but very much on purpose.”
jackie ll, Pointless

Karen  Hinton
“The call from Momma was like a bullet piercing my Washington bubble. Janice had been on short trip with her baby daughter locked safely in a car seat in the back. The baby was fussy and, as Janice reached back to grab her daughter’s pacifier that had fallen, another vehicle had blindsided her car. She survived it but her baby girl didn’t.”
Karen Hinton, Penis Politics: A Memoir of Women, Men and Power
