“The things I own now haven’t yet proven themselves should the bottom fall out of the life I’m currently living. I know that I’m the adaptable one and the things are not what will make or break me, but dammit, you can’t logic away an emotional bond like the one I’ve forged with my stuff.”
― Jennifer Cody, The Trouble With Trying to Save an Assassin

“The world sucks. Family sucks. And being expected to be eternally indebted to the people who bumped uglies and squirted you out? That sucks. You’re not beholden to anyone. So if you have a family who hates who you are, who ever made you feel like you’re not good enough, or even gives those long speeches on tolerance as if that is a good word to use? Fuck ’em. Don’t make yourself miserable enduring that garbage because TV tells you you’re supposed to see your family. In fact, make them come to you. Make them prove they give a damn about you. Or at the end of the day, if it’s really bad? Be happy with the life you’ve made for yourself and leave all of that shit behind.”

“People who had never needed money could never understand the dual weight of responsibility and freedom that came with getting a break.”
