Same reason they use blue for maxipad commercials

God damn. I had a vague understanding of all that, but to have it all documented makes me a bit ill. America has a serious issue of lack of comeuppance.

I’d been using Instagram as my scrapbook of neat things I’ve done/made for several years. Mainly it’s for my own personal enjoyment but I left it public because artist types like showing off I guess. Anyway, I accidentally made a post that went mildly viral, 300k views and 8k likes, and it pretty much took the fun out of it for me. I guess I didn’t really want an audience, I just wanted to look in the river like Narcissus. Now everytime I glance I get a notification that ripples my reflection.

I caught the tiger by the tail. What a world.

Same play as Mark Carney in Canada. A rebranded Conservative spouting liberal bullshit.

All the methane the rockets leak into the upper atmosphere might fuck us over first.

The best thing about Zuckerberg is that he has no foresight or strategy that isn’t dog shit. I expect him to make wrong decision after wrong decision and to follow the sunk cost all the way down. I hope so anyway.

In the liner notes of his ‘best of’ CD, Harry said he was also interested in the cure being an ingredient of the ailment. Like how you can make a salve out of nettle root that helps with the sting of the leaves.

No, that’s the look you get when you use table syrup. Also known as telephone pole syrup.

I’m nice to you, but your just not into May

Totally. She picks the best kissers.

God I hope so.

Engineers tend to get trapped between their calipers. They need to look holistically at the entire package. They need to play with things and think about their meaning and purpose. They need to analyze their decisions in the context of the human experience. They need to be free to experiment without technical restraints so they can push against the boundaries of what’s “possible”. Art is fast and fun. Design is smotth and calculated.

This guy is the perfect example. He gets this “great idea”, mills up a giant block of aluminum, spends 10 days faffing around, then throws it in the bin and starts over. Dude needs to sketch some shit and play with cardboard and clay and get his thoughts together before running to spin up his favorite tool.

Perhaps I can back too harsh, but I hear that response anytime I bring up art in front of engineers. It isn’t funny, is mainly lies and is meant to denegrate the whole occupation of art. If you’re an artist hold the standard higher please.

No, I’ve only ever heard things like that in a comedy sketch making fun of art. I guess I went to a better art school than you. Was your award given by journalists or artists?

• none of those things you said were criticisms, they were all commands. That would never get said at an art school because they couldn’t give 2 shits what you hand in because it’s all about how you defend your bullshit art in a critique.

Tell me you’ve never taken an art course without telling me you’ve never taken an art course by being a condescending prick

Good lesson plan. Then make them take some art and design courses.

You’re right. I know several youtubers who subsist on hate views. Shit, look at 5 minute crafts.

He seems like the kinda guy who spends a lot of time trying to kiss his own ass. This is probably just his disappointment after trying.

My buddy is an accomplished self taught violin maker. He won an award and was talking to another renowned violin maker who asked him where he was taught. He was slightly embarrassed to say he was self taught but she was quite impressed and said “Ahh! The slow way!”

I hustle my skills at recovering furniture. I’m an upholstwhore.
