ok finally something I feel a little confident talking about. I think there's a growing overreliance on outsourcing production and it's pushing out DIY makers, further commercializing furry art, & resulting in slimmer profit margins. this is how I handle nearly all my production myself:

the constant content churn is SO real and apparent when you see someone apologizing for re-sharing their art like, "this is a few weeks old but i think it's still good!" like, there's no expiration date on art or writing, my dudes. tiktok and The Algorithm™ have poisoned your brain.

Honestly I think this is one of AOC's greatest strengths: just being willing to address what is currently happening rather than pretending like everything can go on as it was. She's been doing it for years but still only a handful of other Dems are willing to do the same.

You can survive this. Outlast your enemies and thrive. (Plan for a two part linocut. I think I'm just going to have to suck it up and buy some new lino; I have rubber blocks and a couple small pieces of lino but it seems I just can't do without detail.) #art #wolf #linocut planning #printmaking

I tried to do everything today but only did some things. This, I realize, is the human condition, and yet, I despair. How is there still so much to DO.
