I hope this doesn't get repeated at school 🤣

Replacement Theory dominated by people who deep down know they stand no chance in a true meritocracy

I feel attacked

I didn't, but it was a great kick in the butt to practice and find some new people to follow. :>

Huh. Amazon has been an absolute bastard to navigate since my mum passed away to the point where they deleted her account but refuse to take her books and pages down so I can republish. Maybe I'll try this instead.

Two days, I guess since it came out two days ago. But it sure felt like three.

I've been enjoying it a lot. Much more than any social media in the last several years.

It SUCKS. I've had so many periods if doubt about my own intelligence, empathy, media literacy, etc, when I find out someone I look up to or who's work I enjoy did something monstrous.

Until you find out, of course, then it's in your control.

So hold yourself accountable only to the things within your control. Liking, respecting, or idolizing an artist you don't personally know who turns out to be horrible... that's not in your control.

I think it's important to remember the scope of your capabilities. You don't KNOW these people and you bring a LOT with you into their art. It's not that art and artist are separate (imo) but that art transforms infinitely when communicated.

I really like the premise and the vibes! And the question is intriguing... Would I explore? Gotta think about it :D Best of luck, I hope I get to find out how Ren handles it someday.

No I haven't, but I'll be perusing the channel for sure now!
