Artists often never get a chance to have breaks, days off, vacations etc
Honestly this framing is a bit problematic. Maybe they will come back to making art later
I know all the hours I poured to make every cent. I did not ask yall to make it a career but to stop trying to even create at a capacity? It’s sad especially since it’s more that 3 people
So just now, on @FirstTake , as they were going to commercial and promo-ing the next segment featuring comments from Jerry Jones, you can hear #markCuban on the hot mic saying, "I feel bad for Jerry"

"I can't believe that violence committed by the people who have less power somehow relieves you of the burden of forming a just society."

@whotfisjovana A documentary called Dear Zachary.

@AdrianCJax Thank you! I also feel like this narrative needs to shift on "finding" love. Love exists everyday everywhere all the time, within ourselves. Then we can choose to share that with others in all sorts of ways.
I've experienced the most abundant love when I give it freely.
Your day job is that thing that sustains you. It’s there to serve a very specific purpose in your life- Health insurance and stable income.
Your art is who you are. Your passion is what defines you, not your job.
You’re a filmmaker because you make films.
Hey what if put the history of black music in one song : techno /electronic , rock , funk , gospel , blues /country, Atl bass , & hip hop
Genius shit
