people saying this have no idea why the dedication in demon copperhead was "for the survivors" - if you've never run brown water from your tap or lived in a house threaded with coal dust in the land where scarcity is god, you don't get to talk about my home

This Jack Kirby X Jackson Pollock mashup was part of a series I shopped together for kicks. A big art account swiped it on Twitter (which is fine, I don’t own either of the respective pieces, I just smooshed them together) but it stirred up a bunch of controversy from purists. 🤭

reminder that Vonnegut's quote about political art being a custard pie dropped from a ladder is about that art in the context of television and the way tv "holds attention" - how the media serves political power & militarism

grown adults are on the internet complaining that literary critics do, in fact, critique tense, because it does, in fact, matter. hot take: if you're angry about that you might oughta consider taking the advice. maybe some people do actually know things you don't, and maybe their expertise matters
