Wait, i am supposed to have a business and make money?
How? It’s not like i am going to show it to anyone, mine is freaking ugly and the more expressive, the worse it gets.
Charge more for the ugly ones - then they’re more avant garde
Furries don’t care about all that
Now I’m curious what abstract furry art would look like
Well they care a little. I think you still need to be able to draw recognizable shapes…
You haven’t been to the art museum, they have some of the ugliest paintings there, and people drool over it.
I believe with all my heart that in a world where something can be art and literal trash at the same time, there is a niche for you.
My rule for my kids is that they can have anything else, but what they need to have at all times is a plan.
I don’t care if their long term plan is to be a NASA scientist or a desk jockey or a farmer, they just gotta always have the next step for how they’re making that happen at the very least conceptualized, and if they can’t figure that out, they gotta look for something they can make a plan out of.
I want my kids to grow up happy, but they also gotta have a roof over their heads and I won’t always be around for them to provide that.
plans do fail and that can be devastating too.
But I believe failure and mistakes should be normalized so that it doesn’t become a devastation.
They might make a mistake and maybe you’re not around and they gotta live in a car for a week or two of or a stint, that is not the end of the world. That can just be a fire lit under the butt. It doesn’t mean fail, it can just be a moment in time between and it doesn’t mean the whole life is a bust.
Worst is if they let it get to them and decide the world is against all their plans. That’s how you get into a rut and stay there.
Once Elon Musk was asked about how to find inspiration to continue forward in the difficult field of space exploration.
His response was that for anyone who needs inspiration, they should just go do something else, because it’s a hard enough field that it won’t be possible for a person who doesn’t have sufficient intrinsic motivation.
Fuck Elon Musk.
Yeah yeah, he just wants to keep all the NASA subsidies (which he says he doesn’t get) to himself.
Elon bought himself into space exploration, he wasn’t even smart enough to get a degree in physics without buying it from the school.
So I’m going to take his quotes about inspiration with a big bag of salt.
