Usually I am of the mind that making things is important all the time but especially in scary times when someone might need the escape a little more.
But it is real hard to be in that mind at current.
So if you are still making things, please be proud of yourself and know that you are helping. It may not seem like it, but you're helping. Someone is escaping into your words, or your art, or your game, or your music. They're looking at the cute or weird or horrifying little things you make and forgetting about the horror outside for a minute.
And that minute could mean everything.
#i haven't been able to actually write things in a few days#anything beyond notes#can't draw#can't read#can't sleep so great#but i'm sleeping too much#it's stupid and i hate it and i hate that i can't do anything useful#i hate that my local government supports the murder of innocents#i hate getting emails from my senator about 'successful pro-life marches' right after he went on television to say how proud he is of ice#i would like just once to not be living through an event you know#just once#one year where nothing fucking happens
