"Text book for my class. What if Bach's 2-Part Invention format was used for a conversation between a lesbian and a gay man? Random excerpt I picked up upon purchasing it. The Pink Flamingo on the cover is a flaming friend of Dorothy. Bending Genre? More like Bending Gender. NOT THAT THERE'S ANYTHING WRONG WITH THAT!!!!!" Sep 25, 2025 10:17PM

"I have been reading this book and I have gotten to the really interesting parts where she meets Grandfather Peyote and delves deeper into Native customs. She also uncovers interesting facts about her family history, some fierce and accomplished warriors--men and especially the women. She is trying to find her path as a teenage woman negotiating between academia and the party girl lifestyle. Geronimo!" Sep 25, 2025 10:05PM

Frank Herbert
“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
Frank Herbert, Dune

Mark Twain
“Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to reform (or pause and reflect).”
Mark Twain
