adulthood is just realizing you have to choose your hard

exercising is hard
being in poor health is hard

saving money is hard
not being able to pay for emergencies is hard

dating is hard
loneliness is hard

working towards a dream is hard
never achieving that dream is hard

I miss having 75k followers on Twitter, but now that I’m in my 30s, I am unfortunately too old and self-aware to publicly say the kinds of things that would help me achieve such a following on BlueSky.

Make art that you think is fuckin sick as hell. Make the shit you never thought you could that you always wanted to see. Beat your insecurity to death and fight to become your own favorite artist.

The human cost of VICE’s bankruptcy is heartbreaking but I knew from the moment in 2016 when my boss made me edit 360 video of a sound guy running around Vietnam on shrooms that VICE wouldn’t be long for this world.
