 I never give up
 
 I'm just waiting my turn
 
 "laughs nervously"
 
 so, uh, why dontchya'll go first yeah I've already gone first and I'll do it
 again but it'd be cool if I had people going first with me sometime
 
 "girl all you do is walk around and talk about how you bought your hat on the
 internet four or so years ago"
 
 T.T what else do you want from me I'm not a mastermind I'm a designer there's
 a difference T.T
 
 "didn't you volunteer to be a leader last year"
 
 oh, yeah, well leaders are more than just "the ones who go first" they're also
 the spiritual and emotional guiders that keep things on track once everyone
 can talk about things other than their hats
 
 ... fuck I want to talk about things besides my hat. I always think of
 something awesome to say just as I'm rounding the bend, and whenever I peer
 back around again they're never around. Rats.
 
 "what are you even asking for"
 
 I don't know?? Does it matter if the horse and the bishop both take the same
 square if they're claimed themselves in the end? ...wat

 I mean, you're allowed to fight about stupid shit as long as you realize it's
 about something that doesn't matter. As long as people are working together
 toward their common goals then... whatever, right?

 I honestly don't care if someone deadnames me, or calls me the wrong pronouns,
 or forgets to put me in the girl section, or asks me to sing baritone
 
 like... I don't give a shit, why are you so worried about all this vapid
 nonsense like yeah I get it, being disrespected sucks but like... why do you
 want the kind of respect that is a forced platitude
 
 we could all do with being a bit more radical, it's not a race and everyone's
 roles are important. Be yourself, and follow people you want to be like.

 "hubris and pride" yes and? I never challenge gods I can't outfox. And of
 those there are but a few. At the end, they always smile with me. Otherwise
 it'd be unjust to their noble spirit! And what of my noble spirit? I get a
 home and a bed and food and diapers.
 
 I do not ask for more, i only want to be recognized for my efforts.
 
 Stop telling me to get a job! As if I were idle. God.

 when I say "trust me" what I mean is "I need more followers"
 
 what do I want? not more followers. Which is why I'm not selling myself or
 marketing. I'm doing the bare minimum.
 
 what do I want?
 
 an end to all slavery
 
 liberty
 
 I want people to water that tree
