Just Like Yesterday vs. Weeded Out

Writer: Amanda RiddellAmanda Riddell

Weeded Out caused me to have numerous suicidal visits to the ED. Weeded Out caused me to become a nuisance, including affecting Chloe. Weeded Out caused people to treat me like garbage because they were upset that I refused to give them credit that they didn't deserve, given that they weren't the ones that were drawing from their real life experiences and I was. Just Like Yesterday hasn't caused any of those issues. Just Like Yesterday taught them that they were the shallow shits and that there was a lot more depth to those characters, plus that I'm as good at prose as they are, despite not having gotten a degree from IIML (Victoria University). Writing is therapeutic, acting isn't; that's because I'm dysphoric and sick being pushed around by bigots that only want me as a man. There is no 'they ar' - there is only 'she ar' Stop using Shaneel and other non-binary people as a cudgel to force me to alter my gender expression. I'm 30 years old: I'm more than capable of choosing my own clothes and I'm more than capable of telling you all to fuck off. Michelle, Cassandra and other 'friends' - you have no legal right to my script, and you will cease and desist from trying to produce it, knowing that you have no legal right to do so.
