Actually that was intentional. Look, if Chloe really has been stalking me for the last 5 years, then it's pretty obvious that everyone knows what our dynamic is. She wears the pants. I outed my kink in the Big Smoke. It's plain masochism, and the fact that my identity is stigmatised does play into that somewhat, but mostly it's about a general feeling of inadequacy combined with decades of people being afraid of me. - I'm brilliant, but I'm intense; scary intense. So is Mika, so are most queens. If I'm stoned and listening to music, that's my way of toning it down for the office. I type quick and think quick, so though I suck at multitasking, I'm good at quickly switching between tasks. I think the RNZ job suits an ADHD brain, as Anna is ADHD and people tend to think I'm something other than normal (though they're usually wrong about the what). - Bipolar is a madness. That's what I have: I'm insane, or at least sometimes. My fashion owes a lot to Mika - she's the one who made me think my way could be. I love the interviews where she's in skirts with the stubble. - What I want is really simple: I want to choose my clothes and feel confident. I want to choose whether to tone it up or down based on my moods alone. That's what cisgender people take for granted. And that's what Elizabeth's Bill would have enshrined in law. 😀
