Wolf noun, f/n. (Emma -/-Wolf Deraze). Eats, shits and sleep, and sometimes thinks. Has lived in 16 different places, right now Brighton, UK. Registered as a replicant because of absolute absence of human empathy or fear of death, but loves animals more than you love your mama. Is an anarchist but don’t tell anyone. Used to paint/draw and write and photograph and create all kinds of shit but now thinks it was all a bad bad joke. Mostly it rants. That’s the one thing it’s good at. That and risotto.
