I could make my home in the National Portrait Gallery in London.

My muse is the art work on my wall, painted by her older brother Branwell in 1833.



Emily Jane Brontë, 1818 - 1848
"Stronger than a man, simpler than a child, her nature stood alone". (Charlotte Brontë, regarding Emily)



Same question

Too many LOL...

That is, indeed, a lovely portrait!


Do you like chicken, or lamb?

I don't care for chicken, but nor would I hurt a lamb.

same q

I prefer chicken. I do understand what you mean about lambs.

Do you believe that the Pi symbol is aesthetically pleasing?

I do enjoy the pi symbol.

I had a best friend named CDW in my adolescence. We wrote many acronyms in our secret letters back and forth, using secret code. One of our private acronyms was

LACFTT

The TT was meant to imply pi, or eternal continuity, as a replication of π

same q

You were very smart girls, indeed....

Yes, I enjoy it pretty much.

Do you have a fond hope that more people could actually make a living out of writing poems?

Indeed, I do wish poets could live in baronry and hedonism like their Romantic predecessors.

Today, many poets are successful at writing songs and arias. They are compensated by immortality and will be remembered longer than the span of π.

The others write greeting card verse, and are shunned or forgotten by society.

same q

I wish they could, indeed.

I can write poetry----but I'm not very good at writing songs.


Do you wish bookstores would supply more couches for their patrons' reading pleasure?

I do! Couches and ladders, such that I could search the shelves like Belle.

I spent a majority of my childhood in a bookshop which had dim lighting, a furry carpet, a bean bag chair and one large couch. The shopkeeper thought I was good publicity for reading, and allowed me to spend hours in the environs, usually lying on my tummy with my nose stuck in a book. I liked lying on the carpet best and can still remember how the fringes felt, and the scent of the fabric. I was very sad when the keeper retired.

Everything was cast with a golden glow in this reverie.

Same q

Two bookstores in Portland do this just for patrons!

Same question.

I am not sure if I understand the question properly so I`ll say generally: where there are books there shoud be couches and where there are couches there should be books. (Although in a bookstore or other public place I personally would prefer a chair of some sort)

What issue or issues was the first that made you interested/aware of politics and society?

LGBTQ rights and gay marriage were the first political topics which held my interest (in favour, of course).
This is now expanded to LGBTTQQIAAP... basically, the freedom of personal identity.

same q

Same answer

I am not heterosexual or cisgender

San Diego 2004 was so homophobic



What is the wierdest job or job interview you have ever been to and what was unusual about it?

I once had a job interview solely by telephone for a position at UPS, I thought it was weird cause, the whole thing was being video recorded, yet I felt like someone out of the matrix, just strange, cause I could not tell if things were going good or bad.


Do you enjoy the outside from time to time?

Yes.

Same question.
