Hello, Rats and Muffins,

There is a brand-new interview with Emilie Autumn! It is extremely interesting and pretty long, but there is no way you will be bored. She talked about so many things, it is just amazing. Both the transcript and the video are so cool, and funny:)))
I hope you will enjoy it...I just have to advertise it, she is so gorgeous :)

Cheers!

I just finished watching it after reading it all, and by god it was worth it! EA always tells everything in interviews, it's like she sin't afraid of what people might think any more, and it's so interesting. And her views on being a vegan and the treatment of animals is so.. pure. I don't know how to explain what I mean, but it's so agreeable.

Anyway, enough of my ramblings. I think it is a very worthwhile interview, thank you for sharing it with us!

I love it and it's awsome that she chatters on incesiantly (sp?) because then we get details^^ she's said several times that if she talks to much just stop her but no one ever does and I think that is one of the reasons, what she goes on about is interesting :3

You're right though. I think it's because no one minds her rambling, you know? I think that is what makes her interviews so interesting, because she talks. She has a conversation, not a one word answer, that's why.
And I think it's kind of cute how she does, :3

Me being a vegetarian, vegan or whatever, is not about me saying that in order for women to be treated well you must be a vegan. It is not about that. It’s that there are ways to approach the treatment of animals, even if they’re raised for food consumption, that is humane. I’ll be the first to say that I don’t think that it’s unnatural for all humans to eat meat; I mean, we have a long history of doing so, you see tribes where, clearly, that’s all they had, feeding the people with the fish they caught.
I just want to make it clear that this is not something that I do as even a moral issue to enforce in others, it’s just a personal decision; what I do think that should be enforced is the humane treatment of all living creatures and, because of that, I believe that if your approach towards all life is humane and respectful, then that’ll apply for women or, you know, the people who are considered minorities even when we’re actually the majority. It’s all of that, just the completely illogical treatment of all of these things that is for the ill of everyone, and that’s why I think it’s very important to point out these things about women in all societies.

You said it, sister! Excellent quote.

Pretty brilliant interview in general, by the way. The only thing I do not like is the Urban Dictionary reference linked to for the definition of "Plague Rat". Since when is a Muffin a "lesser" Plague Rat? Muffin is what we were called in the early Opheliac era before rats were given particular significance in the Asylum show. I think both "muffin" and "Plague Rat" are affectionate terms that EA uses for us; that being said, I do not like the elitism that the given "Plague Rat" definition elicits. Maybe it's just me?

Muffin and Plague Rat are totally interchangeable. I use both in conversation with my friends. Although I am more partial to Plague Rat cuz rats are so cute ^^

Muffins and Plague Rats are what we are. Plague rats to me is someone who spreads the plague, infects everyone with EA and anything to do with her, and I guess a Muffin is something charming to the eye, alluring.
I don't know, I use both terms

I nearly read the entire interview and then thought to myself "where the hell is that video, anyway", so i scrolled to the bottom, found it and then realised it was exactly what i'd just been reading. So, i gave up on reading and watched the end of the video, which thatnkfully i did as i was able to catch the story with Veronica.

Thankyou so much for posting, and also, big thanks to the interviewer who didn't ask the same damn questions everyone else asks.

I loved this interview. Its too bad it couldn't go on longer. I wouldn't mind listening her talk for hours. Just makes me admire her more. I particularly liked the end of the interview. :lol: It reminds me of the show in Pomona, CA at the Glass House. The front of the venue had a glass window that you can look inside. Before the show, the Bloody Crumpets were setting up the merch table and pre signing their posters. During that, Michael Jackson's song "Beat It" was playing inside the venue. Captain Maggot started dancing around and Veronica and Contessa were amused by it. :D

I am so glad for interviews like this one. The interviewer knew the artist, even could relate, and asked insightful questions unlike the standard ones.

I really liked this interview. The person asking the questions seemed to find her really relatable, which was a plus.

Great interview, the guy doing this did soo well!
Like, she talked about, he asked INTERESTING NEW questions, which made her talk! I actually ''learned'' something, and therefore I enjoyed the whole thing.
I have to admit I for the most part listened to the video.
And I love the choice of background music!
And I also loved how she compared the treatment of inmates in the asylum with animal abuse.
