i’ve had enough of this two-faced agreement—that everything i do is for us, and our families, when, of course, it’s just my family that i care about, even if i have a funny way of showing it, and on and on.  outcast by society   “but wait, who are you?”  i’m your friend, Regina!  My […]

     i think our man actually got his feelings hurt when he saw people pushing back—as if he had expected everybody to like him so much that he could be both a dictator and favored!  he trades money for influence   “as those in power do,” and, as we let my true love steep in, anything

     i see You coming—this is no ordinary stroll, and, if I have my way, i’ll bring you in, rest assured of that.  Alexandria wasn’t talking, so what was up with Craig?  he  used to paint, got pretty good at it, actually—he captured a few likenesses in his masterpiece, portraits of him and his siblings

     down with the despot   and, i think, many people would agree: if an immigrant commits a crime, then that’s one crime too many, but, if an American commits a crime, that’s also one crime too many.  As a mistress to the USA, AOC convinced me that Alex wasn’t just the woman that I was

     i saw Alex talking to someone about what’s going on on social media (threads) and if the video was up to date, which it probably was, then i must’ve been seeing things when i thought she needed to lose weight unless she’d lost weight recently.  That would explain, then, why she was upset with

     Who did i want to talk to now?  What happened to McCord?  Actually, nothing happened to McCord, which is why we aren’t talking about him.  Sure—he expressed his love for me by taking on the form of Eva Braun, but i don’t think he liked it, and, basically, although i wasn’t losing interest in

     “So you’re here to stay?” and “i don’t know what you think you can do to me.”  i think i was here to stay, but i couldn’t be sure—since, as it happens, i’d only been running full steam ahead for a couple years.  Before that I couldn’t do much of anything.  i got way

     “i want to start over:”  that sounded like it came from AOC—but my internal narrator was starting to sound a little more like my natural voice—so i considered the possibility that Alex was talking to me through my shield (which, in general, was the projection of my natural voice) and i considered the possibility
