Feminism Is Something You Do.

I Think That's Such An Important Message, Especially For Younger Women, To Know, 'i Don't Have To Come Out Of The Womb Painting Like Frida Kahlo. My Very First Thing That I Make Isn't Going To Be An Around-the-world Sensation.' You Have To Paint A Hundred Really Ugly, Barfy, Diarrhea Paintings Before You Come Up With That One Where You Start To Really Get Into Your Groove.

I Don't Consider Myself A Divining Rod Whom God Is Speaking Through Or Any Kind Of Crap Like That.

The Idea That Musicians/artists Have A Responsibility To Be Community Leaders Or "role Models" Is Problematic To Me Because I Really Believe That Some Of The Most Exciting Art Is Not Community-minded At Least In Any Obvious Or Direct Way, Which Is Not To Say That It Is Not Ethical Or Consciousness-changing.

I'm A Very Binary Person In A Bad Way Where It's Like Everything Is Either Totally Great Or Totally Awful.

I Hate The Attitude Of, 'oh We Already Have A Lydia Lunch, So We Do We Need A Bikini Kill.' Well, There's Like 2 Hundered Million All-male Bands Writting 'baby Baby I Love You, Let Me Drag You Around On My Ankle.' Is That Enough Already? Duh!
