it is so creepy when people judge art based on like, box office takes, number of streams, etc. like ohhh you are not a person you're a consumer. you think that beauty is a zero sum game.
fun fact, viruses are not considered living since they don't reproduce or produce their own energy. there is evidence that they predate life.
Does that make you scared? That something existed to kill before a breath was ever taken? It's like life was a mistake to be corrected.
