Understanding that there is no objectively good art has many benefits, but a favorite of mine is being granted the ability to see that you hate corporate memphis for the same reason people hated fruitiger aero ten years ago, and that people will like corporate memphis ten years from now for the same reason you like fruitiger aero now: because it's the opposite of the thing that's in popular use right now, and reminds you of being ten years younger

writing about dysfunctional familial relationships is fun but watch out! if you don't mix it up your audience may identify a pattern that says something about your relationships with your own family

To be known is to be destroyed

Sweaty in a way only a gay man could love

kinda on the same subject, I gave my protagonist a good relationship with his parents and a largely stable, happy childhood because I thought it would be interesting to take a person who has those healthy bonds and see how he'd weather quite suddenly becoming a caretaker for his father and an emotional support for his mother, and then just as suddenly being bereaved of his father. he's an only child, so he's lost half his immediate family. he's also semi-estranged from his father's family, and while his maternal family is supportive, they live 100+ miles away. so, essentially, what happens when you pull one leg out from under a three-legged table?

You can explore how a seemingly well-adjusted person can become so quickly fucked up by being a therapist to your own mother especially when you have no support network. Part of you fights loneliness by blurring the lines of child/therapist and part of you fights turmoil by shutting down forever. Going crazy in the caves in the woods speedrun

oh I have experience with that! 😀
