Am I famous?

Honestly, I'm not really sure. I'm an internet star, so it's all just numbers on a spreadsheet.

I was walking to clear my head, and I was thinking about whether my fame is entirely due to Chloe's fame, or whether it's my own career that has resulted in international fans. I just chewed out most of the Wellington arts scene, but being based here was obviously a factor that allowed me to gain Hollywood fans. We're part of that universe thanks to Peter and Fran (and Brett and Jemaine). - To be fair, Chloe's biggest moments (like Ok Boomer) were after we met at the 2018 Cannabis Referendum Coalition conference, so there's a part of me that would like to think that my influence was a positive thing for her. I'm not sure that she's seen all my stuff, but when I watched Ok Chloe, I saw a few easter eggs that suggested that she might have. I'd rather not discuss that, though; people can make their own interpretations of those things if they sit down and do my little butt-numb-a-thon. - I'm not completely anti-VUW, but I'm absolutely furious at them. Fiona Hutton, Bryce Edwards, Max Rashbrooke: those are brilliant commentators that are very insightful, but I'm really not even remotely willing to return. I want everyone that is spying on me to cease. I'm healthy, and I'm improving precisely because I'm no longer based in a town where everyone hates me.

Well, everyone is a stretch, but basically all the arts people took other sides than mine, and they haven't apologised or deigned to meet with me. - Seriously, what the fuck are you pussies so afraid of? If you want my script, then you'd need to meet me one-on-one to work with me. If you can't accomplish that, then why in the hell would I ever consider licensing my IP? You can't have my songs just because you're more popular than me.🤣 You just want power over me. You just want to control me to serve your agenda. That's fine, but that's why I have made it clear that I own my IP and you do not. I may be bipolar, but I'm not stupid. I'm a professional, and you're treating me like a crim. - This is why AMPP exists: I've decided to serve my own agenda. It's much like yours, but targeting the left-leaning people that can't buy into the Greens cult and are losing faith in Labour. 👍🏻
