I mean true. It's important to do it for yourself as well.

But I think all of us at the very least want that acknowledgment of creating something others find impressive or good. And when that doesn't materialize, there is some disappointment.

The road to getting good enough is hard.

Offering Received: An enchanted back scratcher that can be used to summon a ghost hand that will scritch that one hard to reach spot (#616)

the back of their neck is always a bit of a pain to get at!

A painting inspired by the Cliffs of Moher, Ireland. View from the boat looking at the cliffs, and a red dragon is perched on top of a long tower of rock. Signed Katie Croonenberghs 2020, text in lower right is www.kamakru.com

"The Cliffs of Moher in Ireland attract many visitors each year, but little is known about the dragon that dwells there. Despite the visitors, very few have claimed to have ever seen it, and so it’s existence has been considered simply a tale of the high seas."

Offering Received: A pocket full of sunshine! (#607)

I presume this is because the countries themselves did this during and after the postwar years.

Let's be real for a moment, even excluding Soviet propaganda in their own country, the American narrative of the world wars is so fanciful as to be almost completely divorced from reality as-is.
