  • In this work the artist seems to portrays the feeling of disillusionment of modern life but there is more beyond the surface of these waters.

    The subject is in a fastfood restaurant, presumably eating out by choice, they are clearly no longer waiting in line as demonstrated by the already obtained drink, but yet they do not look happy.

    The style of intens lines put emphasis on this surreal feeling. Are they really hungry, do they want to be here? Or are they just going trough the motions of their life. They do not know themselves.

    But thats not all because once the art observer realizes this they may even understand beyond it and in effect watch themselves in the mirror. Looking at this art, seemingly by choice. But do they want or need art or are they also just going trough the motions themselves?

    Finally hitting the true intention of this art, reflection on the ego that so perversely sees art and then makes it about themselves. Illustrates by the sexual desire clearly expressed by this sad entity.

    Truly a masterpiece of its kind. Bidding will start at 4 whole hands of seashells.

    Not to disagree on the topic but “if you can’t finnish it, don’t start it” is absolutely horrible advice when its about a creative art like writing.

    If i am not wrong there is a whole writing style about just starting without knowing yourself where its going to end.

    I highly dislike capitalism but i can see that once you have enough material to sell some of it, even if incomplete as a series. Many people would take the opportunity. I don’t know the authors economic background but for a starving artist with high potential that first book sales could be the push required to finish a series.

    I blame capitalism, both for putting artists in this position and for the disrespect of big media towards their own content quality. Its always the money must flow, at every cost!





  • Its not about the planet.

    It’s about the society we live in.

    Nothing we do is normal, every step of our lives is shaped by human made culture living in human made houses, working for a human made economy.

    It is a “world” shaped by and for the majority norm, which by evolutionary dice is “neurotypical”

    The example of an autistic world would be the same society but if the majority norm was autistic. Wed have building build by autistic humans for autistic humans. Wed design stores and public places to fit our needs.

    Things would be catered to our needs instead of ignored.

    Imagine if some human group survived evolution with still having a tail and has lived separate from us. Their culture might involve their tail. Some of their tools might be tail operated. If all humans had a tail except a few then this few would be disabled, but there not because the majority does not.

    My point is, disabilities are very real. But their experience is not caused by the individual itself being broken/sick but by “how different” they are compared to the people around them.



  • Sadly enough the pills rarely help with that, its usually made so you can “peform” like everyone else. (In my experience)

    I definitely understand your sentiment, I struggle with many of the same thing.

    The thing with perspective is, Imagine a world where:

    Humans evolved to be more active during evening, night and morning because midday is too bright for everyone.

    Where all clothes where made from no itch materials because everyone hates the itchy ones and therefor wont produce clothes with it.

    The meal recipe tell you to add x because otherwise it tastes “too loud” and language evolved for people to have a mutual known understanding of what is meant with that.

    Etc

    In this world we would not be disabled, you would not need a ramp.

    But this world is not any different from the one we live in now. The only difference is people like us being the norm therefore human culture adapts to those norms.

    My favoriete example is things like a keyboard, it’s so obviously made for 2 hands. Not having 2 hands is a disability in context of a keyboard but we can just build a different keyboard. The keyboard is not the world. That we can build any kind of keyboard is the world.

    This is what i mean with “neurotypical world” normal people don’t understand there are others that need things to be different so they never are. Even when they can be.

    Anyway if you are an adult and medication helps you i am not going to object, you are your own expert a you know what is best for you.

    I understand that drugs do wonders for many neurodivergent people.

    But it didn’t for me and stories like this is why i am really worried about the sentiment in general.

    You’re born neurodivergent, in a neurotypical world. Destined to feel different, to be perceived an outcast. To have the supposed norms of how humans are and behave not fit how you function.

    But as a child and teen. What do you known about who you are? How humans are supposed to behave. You still have to learn it all.

    So during this time of trying to understand yourself, the world, exploring your own personality. They recommend drugs that inhibit parts of your growing mental system.

    And so you may mature and grow up, never knowing who you really are to begin with.

    I would love to see a documentary about this at some point.

    I feel like Disney is generally known to fit the “big evil corporation” stereotype, but surely this wasn’t always the case.

    When did perception change? What where the first big fuckups?
