“If you promise to stay alive just a little bit longer I promise that we are going to make this world a place worth living in by any means necessary. I ain’t giving up. I swear.” 

Just create.

Just put pencil to paper, fingers to keyboard, brush to canvas, and go create something that didn’t exist before. 

Set yourself free of the expectations of quality work. Make something and allow yourself to experiment with new methods and techniques. Have fun with it. If it’s dumb, laugh. If it’s weird, make it weirder. If it’s a disjointed mess, smile at the chaos. 

I think when artists stop being beginners and start to grasp the form on a deeper level, they often forget how to have fun because they’re too caught up in the expectations they’ve set for themselves and their art. Instead of feeling passion pouring from their heart, they feel dismay and frustration. 

me: if you lost your genitals would you still feel like a man?

“no”

would you feel like a woman?

“no?”

so you wouldn’t feel male or female

“yeah what’s your point?”

So, you wouldn’t fit into the gender binary of male or female? :)

him:

Yeah basically

“so why do they use “they” so much”?

if you were a woman would you want to be called a man?

“no…”

And the opposite?

“no…”

Why why would you want someone to call you male or female if you’re not male or female then?”

[ID: A chart captioned, “Sad and queer? Look on the bright side!” The chart is divided into two columns: “instead of (x)”, “say (y)”. The “instead of” column gives the examples, “I’m clinically depressed. My tiny hometown is a hell hole. I am full of existential terror. My friends are all moving on but I’m not and I’m terrified I’ll be here forever. I have one million mental illness and a genetic predisposition to addiction, which is a bad combination.” In response to all of this, the right column says to say, “This would make a great folk punk song.” End ID.]
