“All of them are quite alone, some involuntarily, some by their own hand, some without realizing it, but none of them come to the study room table with the emotional advantages held by that mythical creature known as ‘a normal person.’ … The good news is, being messed up doesn’t mean the story’s over.

- your fave is problematic too

- you are not a better person than someone just because your favorite piece of media is less problematic than theirs
- you aren’t
