Fun fact about Maia, the California sea lion: sometimes she’s a little shy and has the quietest vocals of all the sea lions at the Aquarium. She’s still a perfect lady though!

there's an episode of The Simpsons where Marge tries to get a violent cartoon pulled from the airwaves, only to discover that the people backing her aren't going to stop at just the art that *she* doesn't like, and that supporting artistic freedom means accepting discomfort.

It aired in 1990.

Ideas for a finished work of art have no value. Every working creative professional has 10 ideas a week worth developing into full projects. Art is created in the work.
