Maybe kill the part of yourself that takes it personally when someone is critical of art you love? Because A) they really are just considering the art thru their specific viewpoint and expectations, B) their experience doesn't take away from yours and C) it's fun to think critically about art u like

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

And, importantly, it was for *artists*.

Investing in creatives having sustainable lives creates better art, which benefits society in a multitude of ways (including financially).

I do think half my early political thinking was formed listening to The Last Resort (Eagles) as a small child

““They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.”+

My partner showed me some of the new Taylor Swift album and her Charli XCX diss track’s thesis being “you’re so obsessed with me, what are you gay” was definitely. A choice.

I could branch more beyond Shonen and Seinen and probably will soon enough. But I love my little fantastical action stories so much.

I used to have a definitive favorite manga, but I’ve finally absorbed enough that it needs to be at least a Big Three across the facets of their creation.

-Favorite Plot: Fullmetal Alchemist
-Favorite Art and Paneling: Hunter x Hunter
-Favorite Themes: Vinland Saga

A panel of Fullmetal Alchemist showing Edward tearing off his cloak to reveal his metal arm

A Hunter x Hunter manga panel showing a hyper detailed jumpscare of Kurapika with murderous intent

A panel of Vinland Saga showing Thorfinn on a beach saying he wants to be a gentler and stronger person

If you're crunched for time and avoid starting a new series because of it, I can now say that the first 3 episodes of this 4 part series are around a half an hour in length each. And the audacity of this cast is unreal.

Wedding Officiation Look aka photos from my official Multiclass into Cleric

(The wedding theme was Celestial Elegance 💫)

Juli officiating the wedding ceremony for Matt and Maddie. Matt is in a blue suit with a white button down and Madi is in a blue and white wedding dress with a cape as a bridal train, merging Ren Faire fashion with a bridal dress. Juli is in a light blue suit with a dark blue lightly patterned button down in silver chain necklaces

Fatigue from last month has been too high for me to even play video games on my day off, so I’ve been reading a lot.

I’m now much deeper into the Hunter x Hunter manga and Priory of the Orange Tree

The Transfeminine Review @thetransfemininereview.com · 7d

Read bad art. Write bad art. Critique bad art.

Here’s a statement that might be radical in 2025: ‘bad art’ is still art, not content or slop. “But what about AI?” What about it? It demands that we interrogate the definition of art itself, and therefore here is mine: art is a practice, not a product.

Art is not something we consume. Art is something we do.

Artificially-generated ‘art’ does not fall beyond the purview of our definition of art because it lacks aesthetic merit. It has nothing to do with aesthetics. AI ‘art’ is not art because it is not something that the ‘artist’ has done.
