That's the absolute baseline for any potential employer. I will not agree to any situtation where I'm unable to wear women's clothes, and I will not agree to be misgendered. My legal name is Amanda. You've all seen what my fashion sense is, so either tolerate that or understand why I'm not taking your offers seriously. - This will make it harder to find jobs. As for the arsehole musicians who miss my old self: the answer is no, you cannot force me to practice or to do my songs. In fact, I'm not practicing, and will not do so until y'all stop telling me which story to tell. I'm doing the 2030 musical and the scatalogical skits, and you can't stop me. 👋

Same for Cass or James Ashcroft: this discussion has failed to get me to agree, so you'd better come up with a new approach to win me over. Come January, I'll still be actively resisting those cunts. No deal can be struck: I'm not practicing a fucking lick until you give up on Tina ha - To the cops etc: You can say 'we're doing this regardless of what you want', but nobody wants to waste money on a…
