2000-10-11 I have to remember about respect. It's important to respect people, and there isn't a whole lot of respect going on in the world right now. Because like it's easy to respect someone in the abstract [I respect the gay community, or I respect people who X] but respect for people on a personal, individual level is like way harder. Like for instance I have to try to cultivate some kind of respect for some of these fuckers I work with. ( . )
