I draw :)

my problem is that i dont want to be a professional artist but i also have never wanted to do anything but be an artist

saying “you are a burden on society” is just such a weird framing of priorities It’s like saying “wow, think how much better gas mileage your car would get if you weren’t sitting in it” or “think how dry that umbrella would be if you weren’t holding it in between you and the rainstorm”. the things we create? they’re for us. they are meant to carry us. they are meant to protect us. we are meant to hold them up to keep us dry. 

why do we even have a society if not to take care of each other?

i wish i could scoop out all the words and stories inside my head with a butter knife and spread it onto a document and that was it

me, as my laptop fan suddenly becomes louder: what is it?? what program?? who is doing this to you????

when whitman said “i contradict myself. i am large… i contain multitudes” and wilde said “what are you? to define is to limit” and sumney said “i insist upon my right to be multiple”

and ashbery said “accept yourself as numerous”

and when mahmoud darwish said “I am besieged by contradiction” and when lewis carroll said “I knew who I was this morning, but I’ve changed a few times since then”
