don’t know if it’s ageism, exactly, because it’s not undergirded by institutional power, but being treated like the exception that proves the rule that people in their 30s are inherently creeps for…existing (?) by people like ~5, five or take, years younger than me has been such a weird trip
SOMEONE ELSE I KNOW IS EXPERIENCING PSYCHOSIS, what the hell. but I am learning a lot about the ways in which psychosis takes the trauma of existing in a society and a context that dehumanizes you and tries to offer control over it
love that the Gatorade baptism post notes are full of people dunking on the AI priest & then people with any experience with Catholicism being like, “look. technically,”
Recently, while staring far too long at a potato chip, it occurred to me that the ridges could possibly be used to create a lenticular effect. So I got out some chip dip (and the smallest paint brush I have) to test it out. I started with a simple 2-frame illustration of a football and a basketball, then I painted a little sour cream and onion dip bird. 🥔🕊️ - via my new @brockdavisart instagram
I'm always seeing this sentiment of "I have got to make my art weirder" or people begging for weirder art but here's the thing, Weird is not a brand. You cannot rack your brains trying to figure out the "Weird" formula. You don't get weird art by artificially forcing whatever you think is "weird."
You get weird art (and I think "weird" is sometimes people groping for a way of saying non-corporatized) by figuring out what you like, deep down, even (especially) if you think it's embarrassing
and wallowing in it like a pig
depending on how you define “water,” & given Catholicism’s canonical willingness to bend the rules of baptism based on necessity, seems likely that blessed Gatorade will do ya
