Well Hiya!!
Oh shucks! Is that not how y’all greet each other here in the big city? Shoot! Gosh darn it! Dagnabit and some Kraft on a Cracker. I’m sorry.

Hi. I’m Kayley. I could also have been Jenny or Kelly or Lindsey, but I am Kayley. My middle name is Marie or Nicole and I am blonde.
But like good blonde. Expensive blonde. The kind of blonde that may have been affordable back in my little hometown of Ohio, but that is going to set me back like six hundred dollars a month here in the big city! My hair will be perfect every time you see me, so it’s up to you to decide how I’m affording balayage on a waitress’s salary.
I am, of course, a waitress. My work uniform requires cute accent buttons, so I have a bunch. Including one that I brought myself to make sure I never forget where I’m from. My favorite city in the world: Nebraska. We have restaurants there, too! Fancy ones! Like Olive Garden and the Food Court at the Nice Mall with the Zales in it.

. Bonhoeffer warned of societies where individuals surrender their moral and intellectual autonomy to authoritarian leaders or dogmatic ideologies. Viewed through this lens, Trumpism appears to embody the very perils Bonhoeffer predicted — demanding ideological conformity while marginalising independent moral judgment, elevating political expediency over truth and fostering a climate of reflexive allegiance, where critical […]

At the Sydney Gleebooks launch of Graeme Turner’s new book Broken, an audience member said: I spend more time on admin than doing my job. I raised the microphone to my mouth to say ‘that is because of moral deskilling’. But it was not my gig, so I didn’t. It would have been very inappropriate. […]
