Just because you don’t wear a mask all the time doesn’t mean you can’t wear a mask sometimes! I try to wear a kn95 or better at the grocery store…on public transit…in a cab…on a plane…at a museum… at a concert. it is NOT actually a contradiction to do that even if later you’ll be maskless at the club. risk reduction is good! making public places safer for other people, also good!

When we were consistently wearing masks I used the freedom of having my lips hidden to mime along to whatever I was listening to with joy. And also to rehearse imaginary conversations. And also to learn my lines. Now I wear masks much less frequently (altho I try to mask up where I can!) I just still do all those things because who cares. What are people gonna do. They might look at you weird but I literally don’t know them and the next minute they’ll be gone. Tired of repressing my natural instincts for strangers temporary perception of me.

you don't need to do this amymore... live life as authentically as possible and as nonsensical as possible... stop contorting and adhering to the generalised other and other lingering external influences that form the invisible barriers in your mind....

thinking to yourself that you’d perform the same whether or not people were watching helps me. being kind to yourself and remember when people come to a show they want to have fun and not wanting to see someone fail and mistakes are totally okay. i’ve made mistakes live and played countless shows where something technical and out of my control goes wrong and the crowd is always chill and just supportive. so it’s really getting out of your way and letting yourself do your thing - that said cbd helps sometimes, and microdosing helped me come out of my 4 year live show hiatus post-covid

i know that it can be hard. but i know way too many people who seem to think hating themselves makes them smarter and cooler and i really think we’d all be better off if we shed our self hatred
