I'm not on social media because I feel like that would be just such another level of responsibility that I don't feel up to.

Even on guitars I've had misfortunes. I never used to clip the strings on my guitar and then one day I accidentally poked my right eye with the E-string. My eye just wouldn't stop tearing up and I could barely keep it open. The doctor said I didn't do any major damage, but I had to wear a patch for a little while.

I think it's really difficult for people who are just doing journalism and receiving death threats on a very consistent basis.
