Team Aristlowe, more like Team PleaseDonateToMeInsteadOfLowe
Listen. Usually, I long for the day Lowe Bottomy will say my name lovingly. This time, I would rather him just SHUT UP.
Not because he's been annoying me lately. I mean he has, but that's beside the point. It's because we're taking part in 20 Hours for 20 Talk, where I will be giving up the gift of my beautiful voice for 20 whole hours sit in a 2x2 meter square... silently...
Without Instagram reels...
Without so much as an in-square selfie...
I will be in full drag regardless. If you spent ten minutes wearing my wig, you know how brave of me that is...
/srs though, we're doing this in solidarity with our queer community and those who struggle with mental health conditions. I may tell Lowe Bottomy to shut up, but I will never silence the conversation about youth mental health and its importance to me as a neurodiverse drag king who's fought my own battles.
And speaking of battles, Lowe and I are making this COMPETITIVE. We're making this PERSONAL. So if you donate more money to me, not only will I be taking over Lowe's Instagram for 20 hours (an upgrade, honestly), but I may force my publisher to draw you. The art piece in my header is by luxhanpem on IG btw. I definitely did not force them to draw this.
You are not Lowe, so I trust you to make an intelligent choice with your wallet. Chiikawa merch will wait, but the battle for mental health resources and awareness starts now. #teamaristo
