I kind of see myself as a cartoon that’s on its way to becoming a real person that has to find that special amulet or mushroom to get to that next realm or level. I don’t feel like anything is that tangible. It freaks me out, why I feel unhappy or conflicted and why that can change on a dime.

When people see me in public, they’re usually like, ‘Whoa, you’re a real person.’ It’s as if they’re seeing Pinocchio or a cartoon character come to life.
I want people to know I’m a real person, that I don’t have someone running my Instagram; I don’t have someone prewriting all of my interviews and stuff.
