Artists, never forget that you are not a brand. You do not need to be consistent and marketable. If you CHOOSE to strive for these things that’s fine, but you do not NEED them. You are a fucking person, multi-faceted and complex. People who do not respect that see your art as a product

It's time for slower art. The constant churn and grind pushed by techno capitalism has reached its inevitable conclusion with AI slop. Let's make our best work and be patient with our process. Let's release art that's worth stopping for and savoring. Let's show each other what humans can do

![[Image ID: A multi-panel comic page beginning with Winny laying in her bedroll and slowly waking up as Grek nudges her arm with a closed fist. "Wins..." he says gently. Winny rouses and sits up. "Grek...? Wahsa mahter?" she asks, one eye cracked open blearily to look at him. "You slept through the bell again." Grek replies. Grek begins to try and haul Winny to her feet. "Mmnghm...five more minutes?" she pleaded. "Up." Grek continues to try and pull her up by her arms as she groans tiredly. Grek leads Winny out of the tent as she yawns loudly. They walk toward a small gathering at the center of their encampment in the woods.

someone has been letting their dog out on their balcony to howl at the sky in my apartment complex at 5AM every morning for the past few days. I love a good awooo from dogs, but I'm starting to feel like a cartoon farmer with a rooster crowing as the sun rises. #blog
A very stream of consciousness comic about the trappings of nostalgia
