Part of what keeps America so violent is the insistence that people perform care, empty goodness and absolution for white men who espouse hatred and violence.

โ€œWhen I am in public spaces and see most people unmasked either because they think the virus is a hoax, that masking is virtue signaling and a sign of weakness, aren't thinking about it, or that they simply donโ€™t care, I feel like an expendable burden not worth saving.โ€

Really disheartening to see African countries doing these trafficking deals with the West.

We literally dump tons e-waste and secondhand clothing in Africa.

Now these governments are basically striking trade deals for unwanted humans.

Sick.

Cause trust me I am NOT doing art as a career I just do it as a hobby and occasionally take commissions so I donโ€™t think I have much to say on anything but Iโ€™d still like to be apart of the conversation even if my contribution is small

Itโ€™s something Iโ€™m not suuuuure I want to do but honestly I think showing rough drafts, doodles, and incomplete sketches could be fun. Just to show that artists also suck/have fun with art sometimes yโ€™know

I really feel my age seeing SH2R get rave reviews bc itโ€™s made for modern players which meant sanding down/removing the originalโ€™s quirks in service of better *gameplay*

But so much of the nuance and context in the narrative is gone. I am old man yelling at cloud about game remakes
