Quote

I know that's really horrible, but that's how I do it in my head. I'm going to die. It doesn't matter. I don't matter. I'm a grain of sand. As a grain of sand, I may as well go out and relate to people and enjoy my short time on this planet that I have. Who knows what's coming next?

I'm a very binary person in a bad way where it's like everything is either totally great or totally awful.

It's the idea that we as people can control our own destinies. The government and the corporations, more even than the government, can't dictate what artwork we're supposed to like or what comedy we're supposed to laugh at.

I wanted to say to myself as much as anyone else that we made art.

Feminism is something you do. It's a verb. It's what you are. It's an activity it's something you're actively engaged in.

While sexism hurts women most intimately, it also damages men severely.

Just because you're wearing a goofy hat doesn't make it performance art.

If you really hate me, you should at least have the courtesy to take out a piece of paper and write it down and mail it to me. If you're a worthy nemesis, I want to see your handwriting. I want to see your name and your address, and if you don't have the guts to give me those, then you're not a worthy nemesis.

Sexism and racism and homophobia and classism are so naturalized. All these stereotypes make people think it's just normal that straight white men are getting all the breaks.

Jason Mraz, and the new James Blunt song is the worst thing that has ever been created on the face of the earth.

When I first started out I actually was trying to use music to promote feminist ideas and at certain points, anti-violence against women and girls-type causes I was involved in.

I don't appreciate it when women - or men - bandy about these stupid stereotypes about feminism that are age-old, and that are meant to keep people turned off from it. It's like, All you have to do is Wikipedia feminism to know that it's not about man-hating - so shut up. That makes me annoyed.

I was in a band in the '90s called Bikini Kill, and we were so freaked out about documentation then, and there was the whole thing, not just about the male gaze, but that people were going to misrepresent you... a kind fear of the mainstream that a lot of us had.

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.

I was making stickers for guys' bands. I was in the front row photographing bands, booking bands, doing all of the kind of backstage stuff, and I didn't even think for a second I could do it, and then I saw Babes in Toyland, and all that changed.

I watch videos on YouTube of bands that I've heard of that I want to check out. And sometimes I don't even finish the video. And that's really sad, because maybe I'd like that song. I think that we don't give stuff a chance to really sink in.

I don't consider myself a divining rod whom God is speaking through or any kind of crap like that.

I realized that I really enjoy writing comedy, and how important comedy is when you feel like total crap.
