Thank You To Everyone At AnimeNYC Who Made This Weekend Amazing! I Met Some Amazing People If Only For

The vulture capitalist hedge fund that bought and subsequently destroyed Toys R Us now owns Overdrive/Libby.

They have already begun making it worse/less usable and they have a chokepoint monopoly on the delivery method of ebooks borrowed from public libraries in the US.

A fun thing about capitalism is that rich people can buy something a lot of people love and depend on, and then destroy it for fun and profit, and there’s not really anything we can do about it.

An aggressively ugly digital zine about making art. Available in full as a pdf for free/pay what you want here: https://gum.co/lUpii

I like being able to make what I want. I like this ugly dying website. I like that the  largest and most accessible archive of my work as an artist is a page of the internet so obscure it might as well be the palm of my hand.

mid-late 2016

...I feel like we could all have a more mature conversation about the nature of art if we realized that a lot of people view the answer to the question of "Is this art?" is based on "Do I perceive this as interfering with the production of art I make/want to see exist?"

Like, legit, that's the barrier for most people from what I can tell, and a lot of paradoxical behavior starts to make sense when you look at it like that.
