I went to bed feeling pretty good about that decision, and woke up feeling committed to this idea of striking. Slightly apprehensive about whether I'll be eating my hat or not; I'm still planning to keep up those wacky AMPP stunts. 👋 - This is a stunt, but it's also reflective of me not having fun when it comes to guitar and acknowledging that my singing voice isn't working well and that it probably needs more rest. As I said, it's also a chance to press the reset button on my friendships and (hopefully) to increase the number of people writing to me: if my delusions are getting stronger, that's probably because my brain is filling in the vacuum of feedback or friendly emails with negativity. There's some strong self-loathing or internalised transphobia that moving to a new place brought to the forefront; that 'part-time' trans crap dies too btw 😡 -- if people really want that, then they'll discover that I'm on strike until Amanda 24/7 is acceptable to everyone. 🏳️⚧️👍
