Dear Someone: Read this if you're exhausted from defending someone who wouldn't even speak up for you in an empty room.

+ A reminder why you have to stop building monuments to people who treat you like a tourist.

Disclaimer: What follows is raw truth served without garnish or apology. These words may feel like salt on wounds you've been pretending don't exist. They're meant to wake you up, not coddle your denial. If you're looking for permission to stay in your comfortable dysfunction, this letter isn't for you.
