Episode 162: Checking in with Salimatu Amabebe

Tuck catches up with multidisciplinary artist Salimatu Amabebe (he/they). Topics include:

  • Barracuda, an it/its drag monster and perverse people-pleaser
  • Should you retcon your dead dad into someone more convenient?
  • Demanding better (and more creative) gender-affirming surgeries
  • The pros and cons of making earnest, vulnerable art
  • Plus: Envisioning yourself as a house for many different / differently-gendered beings ("and they're all employed!")

This Week in Gender: We remix a 4-year-old TSA segment.

Find Salimatu on Instagram @salimatuamabebe and @black.feast.

We've got three Palestinian solidarity designs (plus trains flag restocks) in the merch shop this month.

Submit a piece of Theymail: a small message or ad that we'll read on the show. Today's message was from Max Burns UX.
