I love studying humanities. I love literature and i love humans. I really fucking love humans. and the fact that this administration is targeting areas of study that connect people (education, social work, art. etc) is so unbelievably telling and almost comically evil.
to love might be one of the greatest blessings to ever exist. it means giving yourself permission to feel. i think it is one of the most selfless acts when you do it simply for the sake of love, because you never know what will come from it other than the act of loving.
it’s kinda sad that taylor made an objectively very good music video with really cool shots and storytelling with a team of A list actors and and cinematographers loosely based on a gothic novel and some fans can only talk about a man she broke up with almost 4 years ago
Art is everywhere. Graffiti, Decor, clothes, tattoos, art like things on your body, toys, movies, music, photos, poetry, books, art pieces, drawings, even logos and advertisments and mascots, designs on your notebook, on stickers, even on pencils. Do you want to live without it?
"The essentialness of art can never be denied. It is a life-saving force, capable of making sense of the senseless and expressing the unexpressible. Please never forget that as you move out into the world. It needs artists now more than ever." - Florence Welch
Please don’t give up on your dreams cause funding for it in college will be gone in 2027. The world needs more artists, educators, social workers, etc. I’m a proud college graduate with a degree in visual arts, computer art and animation. Fight for your future. ✊🏽
But also the importance of the arts (music, dance, literature, etc) and the humanities (history, ethics, etc). Very fundamental to the way we see things, learn things, truths, empathy, critical thinking, strengthening our minds, etc.
Protect the arts and every degree/field of study that some people not right in their mind may deem as "unimportant" in society just because those specific studies may not make a lot of money. It really diminishes how we are seen as people at times.
As if we're just money machines/things that generate money for the economy. Whatever happened to just studying something for the enjoyment and fleeting feelings of learning in some spheres/spaces?!
