i must not get takeout. takeout is the wallet-killer. takeout is the little-death that brings total obliteration. i will face the kitchen, fridge, and pantry. i will make choices about what to cook and then execute them. when hunger is gone there will be nothing. only i will remain.

The car dealership near my apartment has a digital sign that rotates through different sales and offers but it also seems to have a bunch of stock photos in there too and one of them is a macro shot of a snail

a friend of mine tried to sell his soul on ebay and the starter price was $10 and people were bidding on it but before anything happened ebay took it down and sent him an email explaining that if he was selling a soul that didn’t actually exist then it was against their policy and if he was selling a real soul then that is a human body part and it is also against their policy

I know it's a lot of words, but I just had to get some things off my chest. It's very unlikely the algorithm will show anyone this regardless.

For reference, this really only applies to juried shows. But I apply for as many as 70 shows a year; last year I did 22. And many of those were lottery or fcfs.

Anyway, like I said, this is largely me venting. Take it as you will.

in addition to this great thread, i recommend reading “how the irish became white” by noel ignatiev.  i do expect a lot of fighting against these facts because these lies and myth are so ingrained and now have become a part of the community and the sense of self and pride of irish people.
