What really shits me about my enemies

It fucking pisses me off that they still think I should donate my script for free. That is never going to happen, and I feel absolutely no feelings of sympathy for people that aren't willing to strike and disrupt civil society in order to preserve their jobs. I'm a PSA member, unlike my academic peers, so I often see them at the same type of protests that I attend. All you lot have to do is come up with a clever name for the lobbying group that wants to save the arts and language departments, make a logo and some banners and become visible in the political sphere. For Christ's sake, when the fucking RNZ Concert thing was announced, there was a massive amount of protesting that the classical music community engaged in, so why are the people who are supposedly the best of the best of that community unable, or unwilling, to mobilise in order to save another valued institution? - It also pisses me off that they basically said to me that their morality and standards of conduct were superior to mine in the notes that came through the back channels of chickens at the Film Commission and VUW that weren't willing to offer a contract. Like, they wanted me to rewrite it to be a gay show when it was a drugs show. That is the kind of bigotry that I face as a transgender person. They presume that people around me 'must be' gay because otherwise how could they tolerate me? My personal scandal was a crush that became a documentary. Their personal scandals are way more intense, so I think that gives me the moral high ground, though I'll admit that I'm very new to politics and only have a few people that are considering joining my Party. - If the only way that I can participate in civil society is as a drag queen that dresses in male clothes at the office, then I'm not going to participate. Practically speaking, I don't need a bra as my tits fail the pencil test. Yes, I know what that is, and a whole shitload of other women's secrets. They were equally obvious in male clothes. People sexualise that because they automatically sexualise crossdressers, then blame us ... sound familiar, ladies? As for my bulge: well, it's probably more visible, but far from illegal.
