MICHELLE TEA: SISTER SPIT

Hello hello YALL I was so lucky to interview one of my Queer Icons author and badass outsider Michelle Tea for a second time!!! Who didn't we name drop on this auspicious day? Birthday Queen Dolly Parton was absolutely in our hearts, along with Phoebe Cates, Joh Wayne Gacy, Janis Joplin, Stevie Nicks, punk mama icon Ariel Gore, two Edgars (one Poe), and Gay Jesus too....and more OMG if you haven't read Michelle's books you're in for a treat. She is the epitome of SPARKLE MOTION, and in this saucy convo we also went deep into the depths of what is is meant by EGO DEATH? Is it truly a goal, or is it more like a really bad acid trip? Is it merely another way of describing shedding of old skins? As a Gemini Snake I am so interested in shedding and REBIRTH. I also love how real she is about her grief, sharing her divorce PTSD and coping with loss.I feel like we're just like sisters gossiping and giggling about the stars on the telephone. Except these stars are more galactic less Johnny Depp. She has been so generous and supportive of my show I'm so grateful to have had these conversations with her. Please go find her, read her books, and let me know if you wanna be in my bookclub and read her new opus KNOCKING MYSELF UP when it comes out in June!
