To anyone struggling to make their art:
THEY WANT YOU TO STOP WRITING/PAINTING/MAKING.
They fear our rich inner lives, beyond even their reach. They fear our revolutionary fantasies, our ungovernable and unprofitable thoughts.
Yes, the obstacles are greater than ever.
So is the need.

You are fantastic. You are a lost art rediscovered. You are a grimoire pizza written in bell peppers. You are a cosmic maple moth silhouetted against the moon. You are a haunted doll with a thousand teeth conducting a spider orchestra in the attic.

There’s no such thing as A.I “art.” It’s a soulless amalgamation of plagiarised data. That is the antithesis of art.

When the internet is your only contact with the outside world it can be weird & negative if you focus on the bad stuff. So I’m trying to stay positive, build the courage to share work & keep posting
