"Bye, Brilla!" Niya waved cheerily at his side. "Don't tell your mom we said hi. I don't like her!"
from Celestial Monsters by Aiden Thomas
They seem to understand that the world is a big, diverse place, and that different is not the same thing as scary. It’s amazing to me how many people mistake the two.
“The notion of a universal is of that which can enter into the description of many particulars; whereas the notion of a particular is that it is described by universals, and does not itself enter into the description of any other particular. According to the doctrine of relativity which is the basis of the metaphysical system of the present lectures, both these notions involve a misconception. An actual entity cannot be described, even inadequately, by universals; because other actual entities do enter into the description of any one actual entity. Thus every so-called ‘universal' is particular in the sense of being just what it is, diverse from everything else; and every so-called ‘particular' is universal in the sense of entering into the constitutions of other actual entities.”

She had nearly escaped. Just a little farther ...
Then she saw the man standing quietly in the stairwell doorway. He was unfamiliar to her. ...
And he looked very, very angry.
My girl Vin ain’t just a damsel in distress. She’s gonna do whatever she needs to get outta there.
But DANG if I’m not glad to see my son!!
