2024-07-18 18:40:01 +0000 UTCThanks for answering my question Devi. I think part of why people relate to your art is because a lot of us have unfortunately had similar experiences to you. I'm wishing you and all my sisters nothing but the best.

2024-06-02 19:04:00 +0000 UTCWhen/where/how did u meet Rook? What happened between you two to bring it all to an end?(fuckoffisanacceptableanswer) What, to this day, do u still punish yourself for? Are u left handed or right handed? What's ur favorite marine animal? How tall r u? What's your most hated Disney movie? What's ur favorite ice cream flavor? Fasten then zip, or zip then fasten? Are u confident that u could beat anyone here in a thumb war? If not, how come? What do u honestly think happens after mortal death? What do u hope happens? What did u say during the censored portion of the song 'Water?' Do u think the world can be saved? Does it deserve to be? Would immortality even b worth it? How many fingers am I holding up?(trickquestion,imnot)

2024-06-01 17:58:26 +0000 UTCi remember there was a post on here a while ago with a comic that you made (gentle occurrence) — is that something you do as well as music? have you ever considered doing some type of project with more of a visual focus (or have you done this in the past?) ^^^^

2024-05-31 13:06:10 +0000 UTCi'm excited for the qna and i'm glad i caught it in time (well, i hope i still did catch it in time). your music means everything to me devi. i'm a massive fan and your work has helped me a lot through MANY YEARS of being confused and you are how i found out what "transgender" even was in the first place and what led me to figuring out i could transition and come out to my family when i was 16 years old. more than any of these questions i just want you to know i love you and your music so much and i hope you are doing well these days❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ what is the song you are proudest of? the album you are proudest of? what are some of your favorite albums of all time? how did you figure out you were transgender? why did you stop releasing music under "mom"? and what is the meaning behind the artist name "mom" for you? i looked it up and "dei genetrix" apparently is something referring to mary (from christianity) i know this from your twitter and soundcloud... why do you use this name to refer to yourself? how did you come up with the name Devi? its not something i've ever heard before and is ridiculously beautiful, i'm just curious last but not least, if you had to marry an anime character waifu/husbando, who would you pick and why? ok ok thats all my questions. if you aren't able to answer them all thats alright. thank you so much devi !!!!

2024-05-31 08:24:32 +0000 UTCWould you ever post the song Anal Slime California publicly again? Anal Slime California is one of my most fav lost tracks I remembered the full song being on your soudncloud at some point years ago <\3 Or any instrumental demos again like for HARMLESS? which I remember also being posted to your SoundCloud at some point years ago too. Do you have plans on creating more comics? Favorite McDonald’s menu item?

2024-05-31 03:44:39 +0000 UTCAt first blush, am enjoying/being made uneasy by, the new album, but haven't had time to read along to the lyrics yet. Why is this the last album, as announced? Would you talk about the composition process for Black Dresses? Do you and rook work together in a shared space, tossing off ideas back and forth in a cooperative manner, or is it more like a parallel play situation, or even serial composition, with each of you passing bits back and forth to each other while working in solitude? What do you think of some of the early synth pioneers, like Laurie Anderson, Nervous Gender, Gary Numan, Devo and Klaus Nomi? Who do you consider your influences from that era? Who were your top ten bands when you were in your late teens, early twenties? What is your favorite midi interface device and software? I hope you're feeling contented and safe.

2024-05-30 18:41:24 +0000 UTCHey devi, hope you are well! Before i ask my question(s) i just wanna say that you are without a doubt my favorite artist and your music have had such an impact ever since i found you in 2018. Anyways, i was wondering whatever happened to the "Lost in the Parking Lot" album, only track 5 seems to remain nowadays? Also, will you ever release instrumental/acapella versions of your old albums (Cats Millionaire, girls rituals, etc.) like you did with Mom 1 & 2?

breakmyheart555
2024-05-30 16:16:02 +0000 UTCOther than lyrics, do you ever do any creative writing? Sometimes your words are as vibrant and expressive as the music, which is ofc wonderful. Also, who is the most interesting artist in any medium whose work you've discovered recently? Thank you so much for the music and inspiration. You've truly made my life better from afar. Hope you're giving yourself the care you deserve.

knifreak (jan)
2024-05-30 12:07:40 +0000 UTCIn your lyrics you've spoken about wanting to be understood, about not wanting to be understood. It seemed to very distinctly mark passage through time. The initial call out into the dark, and then the returning voice. Where are you now in this. (i'm submitting this for my best friend who is no longer online which, good for her, but we're both huge fans of your work. thank you for doing what you do)
knifreak (jan)
