      Or a republican on his way to sign the paper that makes it so they don’t have to feel bad about going raw cause they can just kill the kid after. I’m not even republican but abortion is just disgusting. Use protection and stop acting like actions in life don’t have consequences.

    I genuinely think reading The Clique as a nerdy, socially anxious twelve-year-old was kind of bad for me? I wasn't confident enough in myself not to take the books as guidebooks and Massie's opinions as gospel. But on the other hand... it's also at least a _little_ funny that I actually stayed away from Keds because of how much they got dumped on in these books
