Back

I took the day to decompress from the ugly, racist incident that I experienced this morning. A woman pointed a blow torch (that had fuel) at me like a weapon, and said she was going to burn me and my dog because we were ugly Chinese hos. I felt sorry for her and told her to have a good day. And that my dog was not Chinese, but Australian.

I hope one day that this country gets its act together to do more for the mentally unwell, in ways that aren’t simply about punishment and incarceration.
