Sure. I definitely do not disagree about the price but I wish you’d made it about that and not the art. Have a good Friday!

All extremely valid points, I’ll be getting mine thanks.

Very difficult to ask this question these days and be taken sincerely but I’m hoping at least one kind soul will find a way…

As someone who never bothered with flu shots (and got a mild flu at least once a year as result) but didn’t hesitate to get the Pfizer shot and a booster during the pandemic: given that the pandemic is no longer a deadly pandemic as it most certainly was in the early 2020s, why are people still getting the vaccines? Is it just to miss the seasonal day or two in bed and be able to get on with life? Is there a danger of the deadly version of C19 returning if we don’t do that?

Again: this not antivaxx concern trolling. Got the jab, all my kids have their shots, etc. I’m just wondering if we are seeing people take the typical flu vaccine a little more seriously post pandemic and wondering if it’s a good idea. I’d never be so blasé about say measles or polio but somehow flu shots always felt ‘optional’ and I’m wondering if that’s changing.

I mean bless you but that ain’t going to happen.

Many of those people need literally years of deprogramming and even then the prognosis is probably quite poor.

What would be more helpful is to give high school kids a mandatory course in digital marketing and communications. Let them literally see dollars rolling onto an account after something is posted online and monetised. No one seems so distinguish between ads and facts anymore. Seent it on Insta? Shit’s as real as the air you’re breathing, to many people these days. Given the opportunity to understand why someone would post BS online and to connect the dots that it’s literally for a few cents of attention I think that society would change for the better.

It’s Britney, bitch.

Perhaps more likely years of work with colour and colour theory preceding a quick output of some content? Why the sarcastic tone?

Could be, the man was a fucking genius hi created some of my personal favourite paintings.

Was that your point?

That is a measure of exactly nothing.

Your post makes it very clear that you have little experience in the creative world. There is no linear measure of successs or quality. You do a great disservice to those toiling with their creativity by making comments such as this one. We need artists, they are fragile things and should be treated with care.

I didn’t start this post planning to get hetup but I do feel that taking umbrage to your comment is fair, if not tautological.

I would encourage you to labour over a still life or wrestle a passable rendition of your favourite guitar riff. Try sing the first phrase of your favourite song in key. Trust me: none of those things are easy.

If you don’t like “Orange” then just look at something else and hold your tongue.

I use it to backup important work to an external drive.

Actually of all the “others” or “out groups” that exist, anarchists are the ones I cannot fucking take.

Irony begin that I’m more aligned to their politics that I am to any of the others, I’ve just never met one that I like. Meta irony being that that is probably the most anarchic position to hold on other anarchists but I wouldn’t out money on that.

It’s your own fault for meatsplaining to them.

Frankly he’s more child of 4chan than anything else mate.

Mostly we just make up our own race. I’ve pretty much settled on “dark white”.

I really don’t understand their position.

Cats cannot make a moral choice so what are these folks going to do when they see their “vegan” cat take down a bird or a mouse?

The fact that domesticated cats are notorious hunters really does make this whole thing pretty fucking funny tbh.

I’m asking this purely out of naivety, not trying to make a point: are you saying that because there are removed comments there that seem balanced and pretty thoughtful but have been removed regardless?

This is honestly my very first time looking at a modlog so I’m trying to got understand how to read it.

When is science ever “conclusive”?

That very concept is anti-science.

Nowadays “the science is inconclusive” is used to weasel out of corners that grifters paint themselves into.

Scientific consensus now there’s a concept worth understanding and putting forth in arguments such as this one.

Also in the industry and I gotta say it’s not often I agree with every damn point. You nailed it. Thanks for posting!

It’s almost like someone who uses that word is actually plantspalining.

“Meatsplained” made my day though fr.

There’s a human centipede that goes from Putin to Trump to Musk. That’s why they are doing it.
