What is even going on

More animal crossing less doom scrolling

I took a walk with my dogs today while it was drizzling and cool, without any music or podcasts. No distractions. Felt wonderful as I usually want something to listen to.

i like being an artist because i have a lot of stupid ideas. then i can turn them into reality and inflict them on everyone else

Spent my day purposely not absorbing any news; I made tomato soup and steam sandwiches and planted some things in pots 💕

I’ve been on social media as an artist for yrs - since I’m considering not using Meta anymore I’m thinking of not niching down & making more vlog content so I can be on YT? Still make art videos, but also content on other aspects of my life? Just being a whole person, not just a sliver of myself?

How do you find motivation to learn and create when the world around you seems to be crumbling?

Forgot I made an account here I need to start using it more!

I appreciate that once I’ve viewed everything here, the scrolling ends.

What platforms are we using instead of Meta?

I’ve been feeling discouraged in my art lately but I recognize change could help me reignite some passion & I can channel my anger.

Today I deleted twitter & Meta is next.

- YouTube
- Substack
- Mailing list

Recommendations?

I’ve always separated my interests when it comes to social media. Multiple accounts to keep a line between my art & myself.

It’s time to try things differently. I am human, with many complex interests, feelings, emotions & thoughts.

They all live as one inside me, so they live as one here, too.

Art in any form is an act of rebellion
