Got on Instagram for a minute to check my messages and saw that my cousin had posted a story with a yes/no poll asking whether tart and bitter are synonyms, and she should thank God that I don't have time for social media right now so that she didn't have to deal with one of my essays on my favorite Katherine Anne Porter quote: "There is no such thing as an exact synonym and no such thing as an unmixed motive."

CONNOTATION IS EVERYTHING, Y'ALL.

(This quote is literally on the wall directly in front of me as I sit at my desk, that is how strongly I feel about it.)
