“[I learned] you can be a nervous, weird, tiny, feminine man and be a fuckin’ badass."

"People constantly tell me that if I stop singing so specifically about gay themes, I would have a broader appeal, that I could make it in the mainstream if I changed my pronouns or didn’t use pronouns or talked about different things, or whatever. And even some other gay people have told me that, you know? “We get that you’re gay, but why do you have to talk about it?” Or, “Why does every song have to be about being gay?” Or, “Why are you wearing nail polish? We don’t all wear nail polish. It’s giving us a bad name, blah, blah, blah.” It’s all incredibly frustrating and backward bullshit to me."

"Why do you love what straight people would call "bad food?" It tastes good, man. I don't know. I like fancy food too; I like richness in food. I don't like little flavors.
