I'm not some non-binary wannabe. I'm diagnosed with gender dysphoria. The Kiwi harassers tried to reclassify me. That's part of my case. As I said, the anti-trans arguments aren't catching on in Te-Riu-A-Māui. I'm not doubling Paul or any other actor. I don't want to, and Peter said to keep writing. I'm not into playing great men. I'm into interviewing them. - While you may have control over some of the fan pages, the estates prefer Peter. You're using payola: I haven't e

That's a type of challenge. No Disguises is a waiata wero.

Came up with that song while there were cops at my boarding house.

Juicy gossip travels swiftly; Truth is hidden behind a wall. Lives disappear each moment While trade negotiations stall. Algorithmic amplification. Biometric identification. Spreading rumours throughout our hive; Bloody good thing they're not alive. Juicy gossip leaves your tongue. Truth is hidden behind your ear. Lives crumbling into dust: It's hard to know who to cheer. Parasocial hypergroupies. Neural-networked mass simulations. Spreading rumours while they look: Bloo

I have a plan for my life. It's not to open for rock stars or double for actors. - I'm taking the university to court. That's the answer. They went too far. Allow me to use the justice system to express my displeasure. That's what you've tried to do. I wasn't charged or convicted. Rather different to the police file I've been building. - I'm going to get an injunction regarding Weeded Out. Then Steve Barr will be shamed really publicly. It's my suggestion that the other

Bm7 Dmaj7 You can conquer all your fears. Bm7 Dmaj7 You can finally shed those tears. Dmaj7 Cmaj7 They'll say you're on the mend, Bm7 Dmaj7 And you're living with your friend. Bm7 C#dim7 Sing it from your heart! Dmaj7 Cmaj7 We'll make a brand new start. Bm7 C#dim7 Make i

I'm busy. Got an election campaign a-brewing. Plus I'm not really a Beatles fan: I'm Macca's friend that had a good movie idea. I hate big film sets. We use small crews for our films. - My guitar style is noticeably different: He uses his thumb to play bass notes. It's always on the side of the fretboard. I'm a classical guitarist. My thumb is always behind the fretboard. The picking is different as well. - George looks the way I did at 17, but Jane taught me more effi

Apparently some people find that cringe. That's stupid: if songs are to remain current, then they need to tap into the vernacular. We spend hours a day on a screen. What's freaking people out is that I'm making a timeless sound, but I'm also collapsing their online and offline lives in my lyrics. - Machine Fatigue was the first of my songs to have that effect. The first line almost always got a shocked laugh. 'You glance at your inbox...' - those things are usually left o

Look, if you do this again, I'll probably end up with enough evidence to charge you. By May 2026, harassment = two actions within the last two years. I've already got a ton of evidence, but it's largely background. If you attack me now, then it'll become actionable. - Accept that I'm not making Weeded Out. Accept that you can't steal my IP without fighting me in court. Get used to the idea of me as someone with money. I'm not performing in large part thanks to your conti

I don't want a bribe. I'm not interested in doubling Paul: it's far too much work for far too little pay. I'm 31, not 17. Flying to London because your actors can't play guitar is stupid. Perhaps you should've believed Sir Peter? His virtual doubles are better than people in wigs. - There's clearly some more grieving to do, but you lot should reflect on the attitude that you have consistently presented regarding my spec script and my original songs. You've been condesce

Is the first of my pop albums to be influenced by Golriz. Shouldn't be so surprising: she's in the film.

That's all I ever get from the chardonnay socialists. The one threat they managed to follow through on was the FTAC referral. That was only possible because Tory and Nadine worked at Parliament. I think that all my enemies are fixated on me, and they're actually threatening me. - My answer to Paul Mescal is that they're inherently untrustworthy. They offered me the role of Paul after hearing the demos. That was probably an empty promise, but that was their reaction. My p

Look, you have no path to 'improving' me. I said no. If Mr. Mendes and the other people that exploited the surviving Beatles are attacking me, then it kinda proves my point that their tactics are questionable and probably illegal. No, Weeded Out isn't available. No, I'm not doing any roles in Hollywood films. You need to find your own satirists to combat me, rather than using illegal means. You need to write your own queer drama series, rather than stealing my spec. - Al

This is the really dangerous project that I've cooked up with Paul and his people. Beatles Invade NZ might annoy the film studios, but it's perfectly legal. If Imagine takes off, Paul, Yoko and Ringo will be curators of their legacy, as well as some of the various musical theatre and pop catalogues that Paul owns via MPL, plus they'll make millions more than they currently are via Spotify or Disney+. Here's the logo and pitch: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-pS_3-jwqCGTVF

You're being deliberately glib. My face is a frequent flier, just not every week. I've made a number of videos for Apple Corps and MPL regarding Imagine Multimedia and Beatles Invade... Why? Because it was a business discussion, and they insisted. - Plus there's the Silent Vigil, AMPP and The Dakumentary. Lots of my face to go around. I don't need or want a big-budget sequel to my epic activism films. Those are the dinner at Mendy's, to make a Seinfeld quip. Again, anot

Public space opens up far more opportunities for manipulation and spies. Ironically, Parliament itself is a fairly secure working environment. All it takes is one SIS person or one disgruntled friend of my enemies. They can try to control me or manipulate me (see Silent Vigil 2). I've got all the tools I need: my laptop and my guitar. - Yes, even in the boarding house I'm fairly sure that they've planted people. My room is reasonably secure, though they've planted a hidde

It's good, but it does have the effect of ensuring that things like the Obamas as monkeys are taken off the platforms. As a satirist, that makes it difficult to acquire the shit that shocked the audience.
