No means no

And honestly, have you ever seen my junk? That's my question to the lot of you 'helpers' who do not understand me, and have genuinely pissed me off, with this whole 'be a guy' thing. That's beyond the pale, particularly from a bunch of SJW's who should be fighting to the death for people like me to get the pronouns and names we desire for ourselves. That's what trans-inclusive feminism means. I will be choosing which clothes I wear, and any future suggestions will result in huge rants. I will not do any work for you, theatre community, and back off means respecting the work I have done for y'all on the pot and gay/whatever rights agenda. It means respect my lifestyle, my life choices, and respect that I have made my position clear: my voice isn't for sale, and I don't want to be sober, so fuck off if that's a condition of friendship. I'm not sober, and most of the shit that entertained you was produced in ASC's. Altered States of Consciousness: all artists dabble with those, but I'm probably a lot more advanced because I took a fuckton of drugs with the activist experts. - No means no acting. It means respecting that decision, which I have made for my own reasons. They are valid reasons: 1. I'm not a pro. 2. I'm not interested in the roles. 3. I'm not an actor, and I genuinely dislike those communities. I don't want the opera audience ogling me. I don't like being ogled, and that's why I developed a mean side on the streets: to back people off, because honestly people like to have a go at the trannie, and the tape allows me to muster a voice that scares them off. - So respect that: I'm still working on music things, like recording my old guitar + viola piece with Aidan. and my musical. I am not compromising. I will be making the Shipwrecked on Islands musical, and that means I'm too busy to work for anyone else. I don't need the money, and if you want to discuss the roles, bear in mind that I have said no. And if you piss me off, don't expect an invite to the movie night.
