There are bigger sacrifices one might be asked to make than going a little mad.
People like the idea that love makes the world go round. It doesn’t. You don’t lock your doors at night because you love thy neighbor, you deadbolt with reinforced steel because you fear thy neighbor. Fear is order. Fear is control. Fear is safety. Fear is fiction.

The only thing that scares me is being forgotten. I can survive most things, but not that.
There is no end to the cruelty of men threatened by strong women. So what’s a queen to do? She gets on her knees. She takes what she don’t want to, and we watch in easy f***ing judgment and pretend we’d do a single thing different in her shoes.

Watch now on:
Why am I not surprised that the Buckeye State has a freaky Norse underbelly?
Victory is sweet on the tongue, and profit is sweet on the pocket.
