Eh... I went to school with a Zaaven Rain, a Nevin, a Lakota, a Fahron and a Sappho Oshun. My middle names are MacKinley Riverdawn. All are kind, successful and well adjusted humans.

Girl needs some Stacy and Clinton in the worst way, but she's too busy being deliberately obtuse and showing the world how fucking precocious she is. She could look so gooood but chooses not to.
