"'I should wash my hands,' said Morgan. 'That's what everyone's saying, isn't it? You have to sanitise wherever you go?'
'That's what they're saying,' agreed Don, although, like many, he privately wondered how much of what he'd been seeing on the TV about the developing pandemic was fake news." — Sep 25, 2021 04:48AM

“We have an abundance of rape and violence against women in this country and on this Earth, though it's almost never treated as a civil rights or human rights issue, or a crisis, or even a pattern. Violence doesn't have a race, a class, a religion, or a nationality, but it does have a gender.”

“Then why couldn’t Father see that?” not-Triss felt despair and hurt welling up inside her again, and it was all she could do to stop her teeth from sharpening. “Why couldn’t Mother see it?”
“Because they’re stupid,” growled Pen, rubbing at her nose with her sleeve. “They can’t tell when real Triss is fake-crying, so of course they can’t tell when fake Triss is real-crying.”
― Cuckoo Song
