M. (they-them) is 8% done with Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race

[…] la testa umilmente abbassata e la faccia nascosta […] e io la lascio dov'è, e per ore lei rimane immobile, senza dirmi una parola […] e sento fino ai piedi il tremore del suo corpo, mi spiace, dico, buonanotte […] è fredda e senza colore; non mi sembra più lei, non sembra più nessun altro, non è più nessuno anche se il suo corpo è lì.

[…] e sulle prime è come se non mi sentisse; […] me ne vado, non possiamo più stare insieme, io non voglio più questa vita, non ti voglio più, e provo a vedere l'effetto delle mie parole sul suo viso, che resta però pallido e inespressivo […] non appena la guardo capisco che è al punto di rottura, che non riesce a dirmi nient'altro, che non riesce nemmeno a guardarmi […].

[…] e quando non piaci agli altri non piaci nemmeno a te stessa, funziona così, e allora impari a rispondere con le frasi che le persone vogliono sentire, e prima o poi inevitabilmente resti impigliato nelle tue bugie che gli altri in qualche modo ti costringono a inventarti, perché la verità non va mai a segno, non è mai abbastanza.

There are things one reads that make you aware that you have lived nothing, felt nothing, experienced nothing up to that time.

He treats me like an objet d’art. She is a natural beauty, whereas I, am artificial one, need a setting and warmth to blossom.

She is not ashamed of doing anything at all, but she cannot talk about it. […] The actress in her appears to be cheerful and calm, and inside she is going to pieces.

In the dark she takes my hand. […] I am discovering her pretenses. She is always smiling, gay, but underneath she feels unreal, remote, detached from experience. She acts as if she were asleep. She is trying to awaken by falling into bed with anyone who invites her.
