Subversion is easy to understand

The tyranny of normality

One way to explain normality

This is not you

Is your aspiration to be normal? Will your legacy be

that you were normal? I hope not. I hope your aspiration is to be extraordinary. Do you want the words 'Normal' on your gravestone? I hope not, not unless your name is Burt

Normal.

Those poor thingsThose poor things

Why I am mad

I am looking for something

Looking for the soul

•Insert your soul here

A quote from a workshop I facilitated

• "We need to reclaim sanity from a mercenary, judgmental society that has abused it."

The Mad 10 Commandments

• Thou shalt not kill free thought• Do not worship the ratrace

• Keep Black Sabbath on your turntable• Do not make meds your idol

• Do not fuck people over• Honour your soul and the souls of others

• Do not steal these commandments; they are copyrighted ;-)• Do not lose your sense of humour

• Do not covert normality• Do not follow commandments

Get Mad AND Even

• I don't have mental health difficulties, I have living in a selfish, venal, and judgmental world difficulties.

• So I have to ask:• What side of history are you on? The side that

fights to make other human beings unequal? The side that does nothing because there is something good on tv? Or the side that stands up and says 'You will not oppress'

Has lost her sheep and doesn’t know where to find them.

Actually they are not lost, she set them free, she has given them permission to be themselves and explore their paths.

But if anyone asks, she will provide an alibi if they are ever under suspicion of living their dreams and stepping out of the herd.

She has got their back.
