If you said “I don’t want to drink milk” that would’ve been fine. But you insinuated that adults shouldn’t drink milk. What other people consume is none of your goddamn business. Grow the fuck up if you’re going to interact with people online. It’s pretty fucking simple.

"I can't draw" "I can't write a book" Bullshit. If you want it bad enough to keep showing up to practice and learn, you can do it. There's nothing special about artists. Just practice! Some take to it easier, but that's the same with anything. Don't give in to learned helplessness.

What I love about Carney is when he is asked a question about his platform, he give a substantive answer with details - he doesn’t pivot, he doesn’t try to pit Canadians against each other - he gives us a vision of hope and opportunity that feels achievable. #cdnpoli #GoCarneyGo #Canada #vote

A sign of wisdom is choosing not to believe everything you think. A mark of emotional intelligence is choosing not to internalize everything you feel. Thoughts and emotions are possibilities to ponder, not facts to accept. We don’t always invite them in, but we decide whether they deserve to stay.

Almost everything that’s been created has used some kind of reference, that doesn’t make it any less original or “their own”. Also stop trying to gatekeep. Anyone who creates art is an artist, period (except AI prompters, since that requires no skill or talent whatsoever)

Today would have been Carl Sagan's 90th birthday. He wrote this in 1995. Carl was absolutely right. #CarlSaganDay

I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time - when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the key manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness. The dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30-second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance.
