A close-up image of a text quote attributed to Carl Sagan. The quote is formatted with a large opening quotation mark and a small, blurred profile picture of the author in the top-left corner. The text reads: "I can remember one occasion, taking a shower with my wife while high, in which I had an idea on the origins and invalidities of racism in terms of Gaussian distribution curves. It was a point obvious in a way, but rarely talked about. I drew curves in soap on the shower wall, and went to write the idea down. One idea led to another, and at the end of about an hour of extremely hard work I had found I had written eleven short essays on a wide range of social, political, philosophical, and human biological topics... I have used them in university commencement addresses, public lectures, and in my books." Below the quote, the name "Carl Sagan" is written in bold.

I miss having a long term partner because I fucking loved having someone to give my back a proper scrub. I felt like a snake shedding my skin. I have a loofah on a stick now, but it's not the same.
