Some of this year's art fight attacks. I'm mostly thinking about the invisible lines in the images, how the lights and darks interact with that. Not doing it Very Well, but I'm thinking about it and that's a start.

oh my god, I hate how slow learning art is. It never seems like you're getting anywhere, but you definitely are.

Oh yeah, soz, I didn't mean to frame it like: I know your situation/feelings better than you do! I was being slightly facetious.
Just, jeez, that's a lot to deal with!

Wasps are amazing. The yellowjackets that live in my gutter eat the bugs that pest my plants. I consider them friends.

I guess there was a little bit about the wife/society avoiding real human contact and intimacy via the seashell and creepy reality tv but that definitely wasn't the crux of the book; just another aspect of the degradation of society. Kids on their phones are at least talking TO people.

Hey now. I watched The Wall; I know they turn kids into sausages there. 😋
But seriously, I've read some interesting stuff about Lord of the Flies and how it was an indictment of the unnatural and harmful culture of boarding schools rather than human nature.

YES; I found that very frustrating when I read the books. The superficiality of ugly = evil is such an ongoing problem with human subconscious programming and I was annoyed seeing it spelled out so baldly.

This is a valuable observation. As someone who falls all over themselves for some incredible prose, I get that much.
I think there's also a culture thing at work. Boomers are like: any dude creepy obsessed and possessive is beautifully in love.
And millennials etc. are like: ... No.

I'm realizing that I just can't really explain people who have a knee-jerk emotional response to something and never examine it.
So like. Yes, I guess so?????
Also this is not a 'mysterious' Lynch-style situation where the author never explains their intent. Why not take in what Nobokov SAID?

I’m not sure there’s anything you can say about a society that wants to protect kids from Anne Frank’s Diary but won’t protect them from guns.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️🌈💖

Well, with human feet. I think the issue with like, idk, canid legs is that they are so specialized. But again, this wasn't my idea and I'm not necessarily in defense of it.
