This is what I'm trying to figure out...
Is it even possible to channel the isolation, absurdity, and not fitting in without coming across as someone who is just a pest and not an artist
Maybe the only way to do it is to make the subject less about myself and more about even crazier people in society, but try and paint them in a good light, if possible
Telling your own story in 2026 feels like masturbation, everyone is doing it, it's like the Everest of art now, there are even sherpas to guide you
But there is no hand-holding when telling someone else's story
In the meantime.... fucking rent is like $1500 for a shitbox in the sky, how can I crowdfund rent for Huggles on GFY? Sell feet pics?
