Just like last summer, I'm making an effort to get out and about and do stuff locally. I've lived in Detroit for two years now and feel like I've seen so little and know so little about the area, so in the spring and summer 1 am out and about and doing stuff.

That and if you let me I will become a full on hermit if I don't leave the house. It's a problem.

This isnt the first time I've been to the DIA, they often have different exhibitions going on so l try to go whenever I can. As for the art, this isn't even all of it, there were many wonderful exhibits with gorgeous history, they had a few different exhibitions going on, such as Reimagine African American Art, Cotopaxi, and Highlights from the Modern Collection.

I really enjoyed my time there, and cannot recommend it enough. Especially because it's free for some residents of specific Michigan counties! I also grabbed some stuff from the gift shop on my way out, so look out for that!

We spent a good three hours walking around and didn't even get all three floors. I did however get a cupcake and a jasmine green tea while there and that was lovely!

Are you available for commission?

Thank you for asking, but I do not do commissions. There are a few things I’m still learning, so I only sell prints on my Fine Art America page or pieces I’ve finished and framed.

I really like working through the Seven Deadly series but I feel like way too many people get hung up about the whole sin aspect of it that it’s hard to actually talk about them, because I have to go over the same “no I’m not glorifying the sin this is a commentary on what it means,” always followed by “it means your sinner”

I don’t even follow your religion leave me be 😫😖

I have been haunted by the thoughts of balance and sin and redemption since I initially learned about Abrahamic religions and their teachings (lucky enough to not grow up in the church) and it always tickled me how the use of sin was only ever explored in over indulgence.

But what about under?

What happens when you have no trace of lust? No trace of wrath? Pride? Envy? Gluttony? Sloth? Greed?

I would say the sin isn’t limited to over indulgence but also under, which means there’s more of a balance to redemption than a sense of rejection.

🥲 I just find this to be such an interesting concept that tugs at my mind and really makes me think about the ways we try to apply these patterns of thinking to others and their own lives.

I think people would be less suicidal if they were allowed to talk about being suicidal without risk of being sent to the Torture Dungeon

Hey everyone how's it going

“Ghosts are real” I can see how you could believe that

“Ghosts aren’t real” it’s very fair and rational that you believe that

“Ghosts aren’t real anymore” I’m about to hear a poem or very sad story

“Ghosts aren’t real yet” the fuck are you going to do

General rules to live by:

You gotta be tough if you're gonna be stupid. You can do stupid shit all you want but you're not going to avoid suffering consequences.

If you can't be tough, you gotta be nice. People can forgive a lot of stupidity if you're polite about it and pleasant to be around.

You can't tell whether you're stupid or not. There is literally no way to know in advance, for absolute certainty, whether the thing you're just about to do is genius or stupid before it either splendidly succeeds or blows up in your face.

I never really post on here so I’m trying to make more of an effort to post art stuff in between book updates.

feels like a real step back that with all the sexual freedom available to us we moved to Hookup Culture instead of Having Sex With Friends Culture

Kiss the homies. Hold the homies. Make love to the homies. Then play smash.

the problem with personality tests and other similar quizzes is that they assume you know things about yourself. Which is simply not true

[butts-bouncing-on-the-beltway]

"Just because I'm right, doesn't mean I'm being helpful" is a vastly underrated thought process that I strongly encourage others to get comfortable with
