I really don’t think these points made by Rebecca Solnit can be made enough re: “preaching to the choir.” It’s such an odd criticism, an expression of “whatever, never mind” cynicism dressed up like a preference for action, assuming a childishly simplistic public discourse, where every question has only one answer, all ideas, relationships, beliefs, priorities, and strategies are stark, fixed and static, and there’s no point in anything other than conversion or defection. Everything that can be said has been said, and nothing is really worth doing. It’s like, “Why should I say I love you when I said it last month? Why should we find more meaning in this passage when we already found some yesterday? Why should I grieve for your mother when I’ve already grieved for your father? Why should we motivate more people when we’ve already motivated ten? Why should I learn new strategies when I already know these three? The making of points is pointless, and the making of meaning is meaningless.”
[Rebecca Solnit: Preaching to the Choir]
What she saw and heard offended her; it rasped her tender unused sensibility, it blinded her inward-turning vision and shouted down her grief. Its very miscellaneousness confused and worried her; for she was used to seeing what she chose to see, and hearing what had been especially composed and orchestrated for her ears.

Yeah, so I am actualy working for fun on a fancomic called “Shadow in Trippyland” and I usually submit new pages of this fan comic in my Deviantart gallery.
Hey, people!
In december, over on Instagram, I found this DTIYS challenge. I never did a draw this in your style, so I decided to give it a try. The water dress was the hardest part. Yes, I only finished it recently.
See you around, Miaikon
