Like, there were these two women that I met, Soraya and Yasmeen. Soraya was on the fence about taking a piece at all. She was just sort of like... Why would I want a piece of something that never felt real?

There is this thing, sorry, sorry, sorry. There is this thing I've been thinking about, though, which is like, is this more honest, actually, that they actually are ripping this up?

So as I was leaving the street that day... I just felt like, oh, right, the America that I know, like the one I grew up in, it leaves for sign up, right? Like it says it believes in all of this stuff, you know, that all of us are equal, that, you know, we all want to live in racial harmony, whatever. And then it just kind of does what it wants.

But like what I saw, like the government going to these great lengths to tear up this street and to get every shred of the letters out, like not even bothering to pay lip service anymore. I was like, that feels like a real shift. So, yeah, that's how I ended up with this piece of concrete, which I guess is just going to live in my house forever.

It's like you have a piece of the Berlin Wall or something. You know what? It does feel like that. Like, it feels like this thing that I want to show everybody in my life. It's like it's a part of my own personal museum.

I wanted an actual answer about whether it was how you felt or what you wanted to do or where we should put the thing or should we whatever, you know, something kind of day to day. And the accumulation of getting not real answers that I then had to parse and say, But just what do you, I just need you to tell me straight so we can move on from this.

I think that was the thing that took me to wanting you to stop.

It's just confusing. And this was, you know, when we first started dating or maybe even before. And I was looking for something in your kitchen. You had maybe like two forks and two spoons. And I was probably looking for one of these forks or something. And I opened a drawer, like a logical place to have silverware. And instead found either boxers or DVDs, like boxes. Seinfeld box set.

And it was funny, but it was also maddening.

Just recently, like a day ago, what did you say? You looked at his foot and you were like, you're like, where did you get all these toes? Why do you have 10 toes? Most people only have six. And now he's four and like wise to you. And he was like, what? What? You're joking.
