Daydreaming is my self-care and mental health tip. I feel most sane in the comforts of my space, to do as I please and daydream. I’m most happy when I’m home surrounded by my creative process and lots of projects.
Tell us about your self-care routine and mental health tips. Today, my go-to tends to be in thoughtful pop artists like Tove Lo - I can listen to “Disco Tits” all day on repeat. My go-to songs were “Groove Is in the Heart” by Deee-Lite and “Cities in Dust” by Siouxsie and the Banshees. I also loved dance and house music because I’d started to find a tribe in the club world. It was the style that drew me in as much as the music. Being a queer kid in the ’80s and ’90s was a natural magnet to all things “alternative.” My gravitational pull was toward new wave, goth, punk wearing a lot of black, Manic Panic hair, fishnets, and Doc Martens. What were some of your go-to songs or artists in high school? How about today? We didn’t get to this point in history without a battle. We have always been powerful and that threatens those who’ve never sought enlightenment. Drag isn’t just a subversive art form anymore - it is an industry. I have hope in the queers and allies generations behind me. But I feel the opposite of fear, and I have strong hope. It is frustrating and enraging it can feel scary and hopeless. We are all aware of the anti-drag laws and legislation that places us potentially in danger. How do you feel about anti-drag laws popping up across the nation? What would you say to lawmakers who are opposing the art of drag?
