Obviously. I thought I'd established that back in 2021. Most of my angry statements were after people accused me of exposing myself. - But, yeah, I'm not planning to do it. And no, I don't want to do a rock album version of the Shipwrecked songs with me singing all the songs. I want it to be a radio play. Though people think I should put that Machine Fatigue song on stage because of the lyrics, that's just not the type of story that I'm telling. It's far more subversive to tell people that screens are killing the planet on a screen. Much like it was far more subversive to tell people on to legalise weed on mobile phones rather than on TV.

Convincing me to take hormones to go to women's jail is a paranoia of mine. Part of the activist journey. For real: that's one of the occupational hazards of activism, particularly for an illegal cause, so I've thought about what I'd do if I went to jail. It's a different world now, and I think that pointing out the misguided assumptions that caused all the interrogations that I've sat through seems to have opened some minds. - While this may not be fully kosher, I'd suggest that criminals en masse should vote TPM. Like, they're the party that collaborates with gangs. Marama's tried to do that too, though, so props to her on that front. I also reckon that weed would be legal if the…

In 2021, I had this dumb phase where I thought that my bipolar medications were secretly hormones. People seem to remember that... That's a very trans-specific paranoia. So it's sorta uncomfortable to bring it up with some white guy, as it's basically an admission that I feel ugly and as if people are telling me that HRT alone will make me pretty (that's not true).
