- The pride I feel for this girl, you’d think she were a family member. So so pleased for her.No words to describe this @coldplay
00:00 - I hate pedestals so much. The second someone elevates you to the status of Saint, and talks about how much you “make them better”, theres often not nearly enough room for you in that relationship to be fully human.

- FK is teaching us all how to use our privilege. It's not by forming guilt or pretending you don't have it. Acknowledge it, then deploy it to the service of those who lack it.
