Hamburger Burgers



i was in Hamburg with sean for a scream club gig that he,s been on the orga for. One day we thought we would be sporty and so we jumped in some 30 year old kyaks and paddled out into the harbuor! way totally hilarious because there where massive (like bigger than the city sized) ships honkin gat us n stuff. and saun and i where there going around in circles.. then the cops came.. was so funny because at this stage i was freaking out a little and saun and i where screaming at each other so then i just screamed at the cops! lucky they didnt understand my slang.. they where telling me to coem close to there boat and i was yelling "what the fuck. as if i,m coming near your fucking boat. no fucking way....!!!" then desperately tried to paddle away, but it was quite futile considering it was against the current....! but it was totally fun way to be an anti-tourist...
bloody real tourists where taking photos of the hooligans in kyaks!

She Trigger Photography...

these amazing photos where taking by a mate of mine at the DTM march. i,ve put up the link to Finn,s website to see other photos he,s taken. mostly of queer and feminist subjects, he;s work is totally amazing, and phtography is usually my least favourite medium, but with people like Phe and Finn in my life i think i can be persuaded.
and i have to say is thank you Mum for bringing my red heels all the way from down under. and also my runners, i,ve been runnning along the kanal. trying to catch the last of the sun just before it fades away. winter is coming ergh..!

DykeTransMarch2007



The demo is done, i dont know how to explain. it was a long road. i had many problems with political tactics and views. Although in no way do i disregard my entire experience of this demo. I met some wicked friends and now doing more projects with them, and it introduced me to a politcal queer feminist crew of berlin. however it seems i picked one of the most confused, disagreeing groups!! This is not totally negative because although i disagreed with many people in every discussion there was always a new view or politcal angle to consider. in fact i think in some way the people i have met through the group are amazingly strong minded, tough and confident queer and feminist people. each with an abiltiy to redefine sexuality and gender in their own way. so therefore the disagreements whre inadvertently deconstucting gender...


HOWEVER CLOSETS KILL... When it comes down to it i left this politcal group 2 weeks before the demo. i still am not sure quite who was welcome at the demo, the party. what the demands where. who the demo was direted at... lost in translation, transitioning into lost, transmission faulty.. get got good. debates are good but with no resolution shit like this can happen.
