screaming hairy armadillo

The US is crazy bc like so many people have intense conspiracy theories about the government like "I think there's a secret elite group of people who control everything" and you can tell them "actually you're not completely wrong, it's just not a secret group of people, it's a bunch of rich people and lobbyists who are doing it all out in the open" and they'll be like "hmmn I don't think it's THOSE people though. I prefer my racist & antisemitic theories"

They'll be like "I heard there's a powerful ring of pedophiles who are influencing the country" and you'll tell them "I mean yeah that's what the Epstein files are about" and they'll say "no I'm pretty sure this has to do with The Queers actually"

Conspiracy theory no one will ever accept: What if the people secretly controlling the world are the same people obviously controlling the world?

i truly do think that media piracy is an incredible feat of human compassion when you consider just how many opportunities to engage with art and develop their knowledge many people would otherwise be prevented from by factors such as financial stability and the social climate they live in. everyone should have the opportunity to experience art and learn, no matter what. i refuse to compromise on that.

"okay but wouldn't you be upset if you made something and everyone just took it for themselves for free and you never gained a thing from it" i would rather create for an audience that can experience my work without concern that it'll threaten their ability to survive in an economically hostile world than for only the people who can afford a ticket to the show, even if it means that it won't pay for the roof over my own head

"do it scared" is valuable advice but it'd also be SIIIICK and AWESOME if it stopped being scary at some point. any point

Genuinely how am I gonna do anything in life with this much anxiety

bit tired of being forgettable

Wild that this was my last post tbh
