People Have Always Had These Weird Things

I'm A Big Proponent Of Open Adoption, Because It Allows A Relationship Between The Birth Mother And Her Child So That The Kid Isn't Like, "where Did I Come From?" And To Have It Be Like, "look, You Have A Bunch Of People Who Love You." Not Just The Parents Who Are Raising You On A Day-to-day Basis, But Also To Have Contact With Your Birth Mother And Hopefully Your Birth Father. So That You Can Be Like, "oh, They Love Me Too, And They Love Me So Much That They Knew They Couldn't Take Care Of Me But They're Still In My Life To Some Extent."

I Think As A Culture, We Don't Like Conflict Or Looking At Icky Stuff - Especially In Our Downtime.

There Are People Who View Their Feminism In Different Ways. I Used To Beat Myself Up If I Didn't React To Things Like I Was Supposed To.

A Lot Of Artists Are Just Really Stupid About Money, And It's Really Hard To Find Somebody Who Kind Of Thinks Of Shuffling Money Around And Doing Business As An Art.

In 1985, I Was Living With My Sister In Virginia, And Since I Was Still In High School, I Worked At Mcdonald's To Save Money To Get An Abortion. It Sounds Really Terrible, But It Was The Best Decision I Ever Made. It Was The First Time I Took Responsibility For My Actions. I Messed Up, Had Sex Without Contraception, And Got Pregnant At 15.
