And I think it comes down to an arrested development that just permeates everything. โ€œThis made me feel badโ€ is a fine first impression of something! But it doesnโ€™t entitle you to anything, and itโ€™s not a complex thought and you miss the chance to find out or discuss WHY it makes you feel bad

Some art is precision-engineered to hurt you because pain is a feeling and the function of art is to make you feel. Some art is precision-engineered to comfort and inspire, and that's fine too. It's only a failure if you feel nothing.

To be clear: youโ€™re not wrong for a piece of art to hurt you. Youโ€™re not wrong to express your anger, your hurt, or to discuss not supporting artists whose art hurts you. But art is also allowed to hurt you. Artists are allowed to make art that hurts you. Harassment is completely inappropriate

There is still time to post your predictions! Here are a few of Peyton's inspirations for the upcoming pitch. Maybe this might help get those brainworks going for plot-beats, characters, dance sequences, etc.!

This season of snap is so dominated by Man-Spider I imagine heโ€™s on the way to a balance patch, which will be interesting since he COST 20 DOLLARS! I canโ€™t remember a more disruptive card. Maybe Arishem? I donโ€™t know.

I put off reading The Unbelievable Gwenpool for reasons I would now describe as pure snobbery. I wish Iโ€™d read it sooner, itโ€™s one of the best books weโ€™ve read on the show. Goes to show, itโ€™s important to be a discerning reader, but being a snob basically only hurts and limits yourself. #comicsky

I think youโ€™re going to love it. So honestly save it for when you do have the time to really enjoy it.

The next three (secretly four) episodes of @mojoversepod.bsky.social are all about two characters who became popular in the time I was not reading comics: Gwenpool and Ms. Marvel. Lo and behold their original runs really do live up to the hype. Thoughtful, hopeful, classic comics. #comicsky
