Oh my god, I found an old video of me at a poetry reading. There may be a poem about hipsters contained herein. I can’t actually watch it, but I have to post it for old time’s sake nonetheless.

My Interview
I was interviewed by Open Book Ontario because I’m, I guess, a minor poet or author or something like that. The interview has now been published here:

My band’s first proper video (in which I stare at the table a lot)! I am so so pleased.
So last night I went to a poetry slam and read one of my queer girl/ lesbian poems. As you may or may not be able to tell from the picture, I was wearing a shirt with a picture of a koala on it.
Later, I remembered this article:
“Female koalas indulge in lesbian “sex sessions”, rejecting male suitors and attempting to mate with each other, sometimes up to five at a time, according to researchers.
The furry, eucalyptus-eating creatures appear to develop this tendency for same-sex liaisons when they are in captivity. In the wild, they remain heterosexual.
Scientists monitoring the marsupials with digital cameras counted three homosexual interactions for every heterosexual one.
“Some females rejected the advances of males that were in their enclosures, only to become willing participants in homosexual encounters immediately after,” say the researchers.”
-from “Australia rocked by ‘lesbian’ koala revelation”
And so everything comes full circle.
I think I have finally figured out how to put on eyeshadow. It’s fucking hard, okay?
