“Jealousy always has been my cross, the weakness and woundedness in me that has most often caused me to feel ugly and unlovable, like the Bad Seed. Iâ€™ve had many years of recovery and therapy, years filled with intimate and devoted friendships, yet I still struggle. I know that when someone gets a big slice of pie, it doesnâ€™t mean thereâ€™s less for me. In fact, I know that there isnâ€™t even a pie, that thereâ€™s plenty to go around, enough food and love and air. But I donâ€™t believe it for a second. I secretly believe thereâ€™s a pie. I will go to my grave brandishing my fork.”
“Let’s take this figure of the feminist killjoy seriously. Does the feminist kill other people’s joy by pointing out moments of sexism?

Does bad feeling enter the room when somebody expresses anger about things, or could anger be the moment when the bad feelings that circulate through objects get brought to the surface in a certain way?”
