Don't be selfish, but always practice self-care. Cutting someone off is abuse unless it's your parents— that's just healthy boundaries. It's exhausting to live this way, to navigate the endless contradictions of a country that has seen a half-won fight for sexual minority liberation.
Being at the protest is always cool, unless you're a cop. You can be a lawyer, but only if you work for the defense or for housing justice. Have a passion that motivates your life, but don't be too ambitious—don't want anything too much if it's for yourself alone.
