“Here’s what’s going to happen. I’ll go do my postdoc work somewhere else, at a university far away from California, far away from all of you. You and me and Paul, we’ll still Skype and text, just a little less often than we used to. I’ll spend some time feeling sorry for myself and listening to emo music, then I’ll spend some time partying too hard and probably sleeping with a few of the wrong people, and finally someday I’m gonna meet a woman who actually makes me glad I didn’t get you. Because she’ll be to me what Paul is to you, right? She’ll be the one.”

“I opened the bag, and the scent of apples, sweet and ripe, wafted up. They were brown and shriveled and resting in a Pyrex bowl. The sight was incongruent with the wonderful fragrant smell. "I have a fantastic tree, cooking apples really---too tart to eat. But I freeze a lot. Jane mentioned last week that she loved applesauce, so I defrosted my last batch for her. They make the best applesauce I've ever had." "Thanks." "Do you know how to make applesauce?" "I can figure it out." "It's super easy; just add sugar and stew them over a low heat." And cinnamon? You should also add nutmeg or a little chili, but not too much.”

“Why is it still called freedom of speech when people are threatened, violated, harassed, killed, or punished for speaking their mind and telling the truth? How can it be considered free speech when people have paid for it with their lives, careers, dignity, social media accounts, visas, passports, jobs, and even their ID cards? When you speak the truth, you are targeted, sanctioned, denied or stripped of a visa, deported, flagged on social media, banned, suppressed, cancelled, or fired. How can it be called freedom of speech if I am only allowed to repeat the script they give me? If I must choose my words from their approved list? I am allowed to say only the good things about them, but I cannot speak about the wrong things they do. They are free to say what they want, but I am not free to say what I want, I can only say what they want. How, then, can this be called freedom of speech? Is it freedom or is it controlled, policed speech?”
