It's an absolute trunk of shit. The things that I admire about myself are despite those things. You know, like, I still am a trusting person. I still really want to see the good in people, and sometimes I will make mistakes and trust people I shouldn't. And I could beat myself up about that, or I could just go, no, you still want to believe people are good.
And I think that's a more important quality than trust. whether or not you're wily enough to spot a jerk a mile away. You know what I mean?

No, music is the only thing that never let me down. But trauma did not make me a great musician. Like, I am a journeyman at best. And, you know, I'm broke. I don't know. I think great musicians do other things. Well, did you just say you were broke?

I felt absolutely unafraid. And I was seeing an actual moment of grace in life.

I mean, I am of the species. I am a man. Whatever's going on downstairs doesn't matter. I have all my faculties. You can call a female or a male lion a lion, and they're still a lion. I'm a man in that same way. And I am so thrilled and proud and excited by generations younger than mine who are not backing down from who they think they are and the idea that they get to be who they are.

That has been one of the most exciting things I've ever witnessed, and it has given me so much more insight into myself, you know, because I never felt like a girl or totally a guy. I'm more of a gender-fluid person.

As neither. I am neither. I still call myself she, her. I'm used to it. It doesn't bother me. And partly because the world hates women so much, I will not abandon it. I just won't. but I also understand that the world hates gender-fluid people and trans people, LGBTQ people, and I understand the importance of not abandoning that either.
