Couplets: A Love Story, Maggie Millner

sorry for the delay in responding to your message. I was walking around the house with unclear intentions

modern dating is embarrassing i want to meet someone the old fashioned way (he’s the local hot priest who will question god because of me)

at some point you have to realize that you actually have to read to understand the nuance of anything. we as a society are obsessed with summarization, likely as a result of the speed demanded by capital. from headlines to social media (twitter being especially egregious with the character limit), people take in fragments of knowledge and run with them, twisting their meaning into a kaleidoscope that dilutes the message into nothing. yes, brevity is good, but sometimes the message, even when communicated with utmost brevity, requires a 300 page book. sorry.

*opens word doc covered in blood* it doesn’t have to be good. it just has to be done.
