Juliana, in an interview with Greg Poblete for mxdwn on 19 January 2026, on “Scratchers”:
It’s like playing the lottery. You’re just trying to make something happen and then you never win. And that just reinforces the idea that you can’t control your destiny. Your destiny’s already; everyone has a fate. That’s what I was… that’s just an idea. I’d like to think that things that I don’t expect might still happen.
