“I’m not afraid of the virus, I’m afraid of the big sad. The virus will kill many and the virus will get us all slowly. It’s like having a soul migraine all the time. As a knower of the people, I carry this burden. Empaths feel it all, and let me tell you, there has never been so much sad. Never in my lifetime.”“PATRON SAINT OF THE HESITANT” / LAST WOMAN
AND THIS
ONE TOO.
“This alpha who just came in is so beautiful the light sharpens around her like an Instagram filter. She’s definitely in a band, maybe two bands, and she’s her hairdresser’s favourite client.”“ALPHAS” / LAST WOMAN
