    Nature is a racist concept

    Do you agree In many public statements, conferences and interviews, you have declared that nature is a racist concept. Can you explain this idea? In reality it is simple! Nature, as I have already said, should be different from culture or society or that which is human. This clear distinction...

    Twitter style and tone

    Do you hate it like me. What do you hate most? This hate is a feature not bug isn’t it? what does thinking in tweets do to people? There’s something very dishonest. Is that about a collapse of nuance?

    Smartphone addiction

    Another way to put it is the phone is home now. and I don't like it, I'm addicted and I don't like it. I'd like to try to cut it out completely but there are some things that prevent me: work mainly, also whatsapp, spotify, citymapper and dating apps. Do you have any techniques to reduce time on...

    F A N T A S I E S

    I was just listening to a song and started daydreaming about being on stage and my dance moves were blowing minds. Then I made eye contact with a girl and gave her a smirk and then carried on blowing minds. Tell us some of yours!

    Singing

    Do you sing? Not for others just the spontaneous eruption maybe because you feel great or just like a song a lot. I do when I’m in a great mood. In the best moods I make up songs.

    Will I? Let’s see. Or “wait til you hear this, it’s hilarious!” Why do I hate it? Is it a pathetic little anti authority thing? Is it about the expectation to enjoy creating disappointment? A resistance to being understood? I’ll throw in fireworks and singing happy birthday here. Maybe...

    When are you an interesting writer?

    You can sometimes be an interesting writer, can’t you? When? Under what conditions? I’m interested in the types of places you were in when you wrote things that you felt were meaningful or succeeded in some way. And it doesn’t have to be published stuff, it could be text messages or tweets. I’m...
