1. I operated with complete transparency, to the point of damaging my reputation by revealing my madness. They refused to even meet me unless I addressed their notes before the meeting, despite never having the courage to email those notes to me.


2. I plainly and simply asserted my legal rights, even if I was being a twat. They found this threatening and decided that they'd done enough 'work' to steal credit and force me into production, despite the obvious fact that I'd written an autobiographical script.


3. The one thing that they never considered doing was to be upfront, to write me, and then to meet me, rather than alternating negging with blowing smoke up my arse as my legal position became stronger (and theirs weaker). That's what my enemies failed to do. They're annoyed that I refuse to get in touch with them, but the reason why is very simple: I don't want to be a stage star or be Tina. Those are the only things that VUW, Red Scare and MANY people want. I don't want those things, I'm not your friend, and trying to detransition me is the reason that you all need to eat some humble pie and admit that transphobia is not just a trait that old women have. There are plenty of young, sexually diverse people that dislike and actively oppress trans people.

That's what I consider the last 3 or so years to have been.
