1. I'm not facing charges, and when I asked the cops I wasn't even under investigation.


2. Yes, I went too far re: flirting with Chlöe, but I have apologised. I don't know if she was/is flirting back, though I hope that she is.


3. Regardless of what people dream about me, I'm not an actor. I'd much rather people took my writing seriously.

4. I'm more or less fine with my reclusive lifestyle. I just wish my detractors had the guts to call me out or to write to me about their qualms: this all feels very high school, which is sorta silly now that I'm 29 and most of my critics are middle-aged. 👍 - So, as for the content of my podcast and all the discussion about my dick: well, that's how it feels inside my head as a trans person walking the streets of Wellington. And I do think that some people find my bulge confronting. But in and of itself, the bulge is perfectly legal. The chats about my past are obviously my perspective; other people may have felt differently, but they could just as easily run their own podcast to speak their truth.🥝
