Clearing up Stuff's misconceptions

1. I'm not diagnosed with DID, autism or anything else other than bipolar I. I have gender dysphoria; I drink too much; I'm bipolar. That's my pathology.
   

2. My legal name is Amanda Robert Riddell. Has been since 2021. I've never been charged or convicted of any crimes. If any Michael Riddell's are in the sex offender's register, that's not me. In fact, it might be the recently deceased one. I live near like 5 schools. Within two-three blocks. Don't bring Remy into this: whether he's mine or not, Barbara seems to want me to be part of his life as a parental figure. Yes, I have a kid.
   

3. I've been living full-time since 2020; even went to RNZ in drag. Ben Strang was in the office at that time. That's why he was tapped to write it. It makes him look like a queerphobic tosser, and I hope it gets him sacked from gigs. Checking your facts isn't that hard, supposedly better journalists. I'm writing a blog for free: you're writing for major newspapers.
   

4. Mr. Barr has never met me. Mr. Cain and Ms. Tse have never spoken to me. Their claims that we were friends at university are hugely overstated: James was in a film class with us, and we asked him to read action lines for a reading of Portrait of a Knight. Acquaintances, but not friends. I've literally never even met Cassandra, though they did ruin the preview screening of West Side Story that I went to in 2021. They sat in the row ahead of me with James, following months of online harassment, then they proceeded to enter and leave the cinema during certain numbers to encourage me to move in with them and write Tina. I decided to blank them afterwards. That was a good decision, but it had the downside of hurting their feelings enough to make them psychotically obsessed. Given the FTAC nonsense I had to sit through over a reciprocated and healthy obsession with Mx. Swarbrick, their behaviour disgusts me.
   

5. The Film Commission has handed out millions of dollars to support fraud. That's the truth of the situation. Why? Because my Shipwrecked on Islands is too political for them. That title has been in use for another musical that I've been writing with WingNut since 2021. The Natzees can't cope with our climate satire, so they're killing it... Sir Paul wants to be in it. That's the script with the terrorists and the student liberation front, available via Bandcamp. In fact, I released an EP of that name in 2021. That EP isn't their property: cashing in on it doesn't make them the IP owners. This could have been easily confirmed by a few phone calls. SPADA are implicated in my sexual harassment case.
   

6. Disney wants to own me. That's why Mr. Barr has been the ringleader. Imagine is the result of their anti-competitive behaviour: don't get it confused.
   

7. Yes, I know Paul forced you to correct the article. We really are writing together. That should have been the story: Paul McCartney teams up with NZ songwriter! It was a no-brainer story, and much better suited to front page news. If he hadn't founded Palestine Action, that would have been the story.
   

8. The biggest tell is that there's no interview with me. That makes it a hit job. To use the journalistic truism, that makes it unbalanced. Mr. Barr thought he'd win the day by smearing my name, but he's being investigated for blackmail after a disgusting piece of crap that he posted on DeviantArt. You all thought I was crying wolf when I said that Sinead Boucher blackmailed me in 2020, but now I think it's quite clear that she's that evil.
