To my allies

Yes, I know have a number of allies on the VUW faculty. My ask is simply this: you need to get your superiors to STOP asking me about the Tina script. I can't cope with this anymore, and I know that I'm legally right. This is a last-ditch attempt to prevent me going to court to get some kind of injunction. - The VUW management need to accept that I have simply and plainly said no, and that I clearly and correctly stated over a year ago that I had IP rights and they didn't. Given that they'd rather cut major arts programmes than sell a few buildings, I'd say that VUW is a commercial business, and hence should have offered a market rate for a script that they wished to develop into a tourist brochure. - I'm also furious at them for weaponising the idea of community good and essentially telling me the only way to socialise in Wellington is to do this film. 1. It's not a community project. The community didn't fund my development time, and the Weeded Out scripts took over 2 years to gestate. 2. It's not a university project. I've already made student films, and I haven't been formally affiliated, or even enrolled, with VUW since 2015.

3. Criminal charges, or the threat of criminal charges, don't invalidate my IP claim.

4. If the community really wanted to help me, they'd have made me feel like they were physically supportive, rather than reading my page and constantly avoiding any actual opportunities to connect with me via things that aren't about professional filmmaking or being their fucking show pony in a play (again, I said NO). 5. This is the consequence of the hate hui. As a result of that hui, I said no. Tory and VUW miscalculated, and now they're still trying to shame me (even though they're pretending as if they're not stalking me 24/7).

6. I'm not legally obligated to make a film: there is no valid contractual arrangement, and that is why I'm furious. My enemies behaved as if we had a contract: we didn't, and they're the ones that are supposed to be business-savvy and professional...

7. I'm not legally obligated to undergo drama therapy: again, real therapy is the ticket, and that's something that I'd need an actual job to afford. I'm not under a compulsory treatment order. I haven't been charged with an offence, civil or criminal, and that means that I have the legal autonomy to make my own choices. I expect all these freedom-loving lefties to respect that I have made a choice, and I've stuck by it, despite the shameful tactics that were deployed to manufacture consent. Find me a paying gig in the media, or in film composing! That's what would help, and I can't help but point out one more time that all the people attempting to force me are actually making full-time salaries while they harass a dole bludger. The hypocrisy is obvious, and I hope they're all finally becoming aware of the systemic bias that I've faced, and how their actions magnified this bias by playing into the negative stereotypes of trans people that the TERF-type people use to discredit us. That's the horseshoe effect.
